KAHI Cleansing Balm Nourishing Care (Carrot)
A twist-up Korean cleansing balm with carrot seed oil and shea butter · 50 ml
About the formula
KAHI Cleansing Balm Nourishing Care (Carrot) is for skin that feels tight after cleansing. Turn the top and it shaves off soft, frilly curls of balm, so there's no dipping, no scooping and no balm under your nails. On dry skin it melts into an oil, turns into a fine cranberry scrub as you massage, then washes off like milk.
Carrot seed oil, carrot root extract and shea butter leave skin feeling soft and nourished rather than stripped, with blackcurrant, pomegranate and pumpkin extracts. 50 ml, developed in Korea.

Good to know
Questions, answered
How do you use a cleansing balm?
Twist the top 1–3 times, massage the balm over dry skin in gentle circles, then add a splash of water so it turns milky and rinse with lukewarm water. If you double cleanse, follow with your usual foam cleanser.
Is it good for dry skin?
Yes. It's made for dry skin and skin that feels tight after cleansing. Carrot seed oil and shea butter leave skin feeling soft and nourished once you rinse.
Does it remove waterproof mascara?
It melts away everyday make-up. For long-wear or waterproof mascara, hold the balm gently on closed lashes for a few seconds before rolling it off, then rinse well. Keep the scrub away from the eye area.
Can I use it every day?
It's made as an everyday cleanser, with a fine cranberry scrub. Massage lightly, and use it every other day if your skin starts to feel sensitive.
Why does it come in a twist-up jar?
Turning the top shaves the balm into soft curls, so your fingers never go into the jar. There's no dipping or scooping, and no balm under your nails.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains a fine scrub and fragrance, so patch test first on a small area, such as the inner arm, and keep it away from your eyes. For sensitive-feeling skin, the Sensitive Care Camellia balm is the gentler choice.
Which KAHI cleansing balm is right for me?
Pore Control Mung Bean for oily or congested-looking skin, Sensitive Care Camellia for sensitive-feeling skin, Vita Care for dull, tired-looking skin, and Nourishing Care Carrot for skin that feels tight after cleansing.
How should I store it?
Keep it at room temperature, between 10 and 30 °C, with the lid closed, and rinse your skin thoroughly with warm water after use.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
It hasn't been tested during pregnancy, so please ask your GP or midwife before using it while pregnant or breastfeeding. The full ingredient list is below.
