Green Clean. Officially Award-Winning.

Farmacy Beauty Green Clean Cleansing Balm just won a 2026 Allure Best of Beauty Award, named Best Cleansing Balm.

Green Clean lovers, this one's for you. We're so excited to share this one, and honestly, we couldn't have done it without you. If you've used it, you know the moment. Balm hits dry skin, you massage for a few seconds and a full face of makeup gives up without a fight. That's the whole appeal, and it's what Allure's editors were responding to.

Why It’s a Big Deal

Allure's editors test their way through a year of launches and reformulations, then name one winner per category. One. That seal is one of the most recognized marks in beauty, and this year, in cleansing balms, it went to Green Clean. We're still a little giddy.

Meet the Winner

Green Clean Cleansing Balm

makeup + SPF melting cleansing balm

Green Clean Cleansing Balm is the cult-classic cleansing balm that melts away longwear makeup, waterproof mascara and SPF while leaving skin feeling soft, smooth and hydrated. The sorbet-like balm turns to silky oil the second it hits skin, then emulsifies into a milky lather when you add warm water and rinses clean away.

A sunflower oil base dissolves makeup as it nourishes, papaya extract lifts away impurities and our farm-grown super greens blend of upcycled moringa, holy basil and arugula delivers antioxidants that support healthier-looking skin.

Green Clean is clinically proven to gently remove over 99% of longwear lipstick, foundation, waterproof mascara and SPF after one cleanse*. 96% agreed it made skin feel smoother, softer and more hydrated**. And 100% agreed it gently cleanses without stripping**.

The Second Time Around

Green Clean first earned a Best of Beauty Award in 2017, when balm cleansers were still a well-kept secret. This year’s award goes to our reformulated Green Clean, which means two generations of the same jar have been through the same editors and come out with the same verdict. The packaging changed and the formula changed. The melt stayed exactly where we left it.

How to Melt It All Away

Start with dry skin and dry hands, scoop out a little with the spatula and massage it over your face in slow circles until your makeup and SPF give up. For eye makeup, apply to closed eyes. Add warm water to emulsify until the balm goes milky, then rinse or sweep it away with a damp washcloth and voila!
