Brand note
Then I Met You is a K-beauty skincare brand that creators consistently reach for when they want a genuinely pleasant cleansing experience. The Living Cleansing Balm is the clear anchor — a thick, buttery formula that removes makeup and sunscreen without stripping, leaves skin soft, and has a mango-sticky-rice scent that multiple creators describe as luxurious. The trade-off is the price: it's expensive, though the big size lasts a long time.
