Separate texture from quantity

An oil and a balm can both be sold as makeup-removing cleansers, but their texture names do not establish the quantity unit on the package. The selected DHC product is an oil sold as 6.7 fluid ounces. The selected e.l.f. balm declares net weight 2 ounces, or 56.5 grams. Naturium's selected balm instead declares 3.0 fluid ounces and 88 milliliters. This is why Melt Index keeps a format field and a quantity-basis field rather than assigning every balm to grams automatically.

Choose the package you intend to buy

The three records here are individual retail containers, not a refill, starter kit or a subscription bundle. The e.l.f. family also lists mini and jumbo sizes, which must not inherit the regular jar's price and quantity. For DHC, retain SKU300 and the 6.7 fluid-ounce title. For Naturium, retain NATR-10069 and the current declared 88 mL size. A generic pump or jar image on this site is not evidence of a named product's included packaging or accessories.

Use directions as a product-specific check

The selected makers describe starting on dry skin and adding water, but their wording and accessory instructions differ. DHC's pump count is not an amount that can be transferred to a jar. An e.l.f. spatula instruction does not establish that Naturium includes a spatula; Naturium explicitly sells its skincare spatula separately. Review the selected product's current directions instead of treating a broad cleansing category as a universal routine. No personal frequency or dose is calculated here.

Compare only the question the evidence answers

A price per declared unit can compare purchase quantity, not removal performance, individual tolerance or a guaranteed residue-free result. Melt Index has not used the products, timed makeup removal or evaluated skin responses. If the shopping question involves a personal allergy, eye condition or disease treatment, this limited product record cannot settle it. The next buying step is to confirm the current package, ingredients and actual offer, keeping any personal clinical question outside the arithmetic.

A format preference is not a tolerance prediction

A shopper may prefer a pump bottle because it suits an existing shelf or prefer a jar because that package is easier to keep in a chosen space. Those are practical preferences that can be recorded without claiming that oil is universally better than balm. The same shopper may still need to check a fragrance entry or the actual directions before choosing a product. Keep the package preference, declared quantity and ingredient question as three separate fields. That makes a later alternative easier to evaluate: a new jar might satisfy the packaging preference while changing the quantity basis, included accessory and current ingredient list. The product name alone would hide those changes.
