Cleansing balm comparison

How does the Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm compare to the  Glow Recipe Papaya Sorbet Smoothing Enzyme Cleansing Balm & Makeup Remover 3.4 oz/ 100 mL ? I currently use the Glow Recipe cleansing balm, but it is VERY fragrant. I suffer from chronic migraines, so if the Green Clean is less fragrant, I may try that instead (I am almost out of the Glow Recipe one). I love the other Glow Recipe products I tried and did not find them overpowering, so I was disappointed that this cleansing balm is so fragrant.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

The Original Farmacy Green Clean has much less of a scent than the Glow Recipe IMO, @adrianamancini. although I'd stay away from the Cherry or Apple varieties. I think the Farmacy one slightly edges out the Glow Recipe one for effectiveness and at least on my skin, hasn't ever stung near the eyes (the Glow Recipe does occasionally). It comes in a mini size and it's often an point reward if you wanted to test before buying a full size.

@haleyvvvv This is very helpful! I appreciate you sharing your experiences with the Farmacy cleansing balm. I think I will get a mini size and give it a try! Have a wonderful afternoon! 💚
