There’s something quite magical about a good cleansing balm. They’re comforting, deeply cleansing and exactly what our skin craves. I love the sensory experience of massaging a cleansing balm into the skin as it melts into an oil, warming with your body temperature and wrapping you in its luscious scent.

The Emma Hardie Vitamin C Brilliance Cleansing Balm takes everything we already love about the brand’s iconic Moringa Cleansing Balm, an award-winning favourite here at Wow Beauty for many years, and elevates it with the powerhouse ingredient, Vitamin C. Known for brightening dull skin and improving radiance, Vitamin C makes this cleansing balm a glow-giving multitasker that cleanses while supporting a brighter, more even skin tone.

This luxe cleanser also comes with a dual-action cleansing cloth designed to gently buff away the balm while providing a light exfoliation, leaving skin feeling polished, fresh, and truly clean.

What’s to love about the Emma Hardie Vitamin C Brilliance Cleansing Balm

  • It has a beautiful, rich balm to oil texture that just melts into the skin.
  • Perfect for your evening cleanse as part of your evening skincare ritual.
  • Suitable for all skin types including sensitive, to support a healthy glow.
  • Love the Emma Hardie signature Moringa scent – it’s like being in a spa!
  • It’s gentle enough to be used around the eyes, but will completely remove all makeup without leaving any waxy residue on the skin.
  • Lovely ingredients including vitamin c, the absolute gold standard for brighter skin.
  • Beautiful luxe packaging: love the slightly more orange tint on their classic packaging to pay homage to the antioxidant rich Vitamin C goodness.
  • We love that you can even leave the balm on for a few minutes as a hydrating mask to give your skin that extra boost!

Key ingredients

  • Vitamin C: the gold standard for a brighter, more even skin tone.
  • Cranberry Seed Oil: a superfood with antioxidant properties.
  • Vitamin E: for a brightening and hydrating boost.

How to Use the Emma Hardie Vitamin C Cleansing Balm

Massage a small amount of balm into dry skin.

Watch as make-up, SPF, and daily impurities dissolve instantly.

Use the dual-action cloth with warm water:

  • Start with the gentle microfibre side to wipe away the balm.
  • Follow with the exfoliating muslin side for a light polish.

Rinse skin and enjoy a fresh, glowing finish.

Emma Hardie has done it again with a new product that combines class, effectiveness and lush fragrance to create a product that is a sensory delight to use. This balm is going to be added to my regular rotation as a PM cleanse when I want a bit of a treat and are looking to give my skin some TLC.
