How it works

The cleansing balm uses Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride and Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil as emollients to help in dissolving makeup and accumulated debris on the skin's surface. PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate acts as a surfactant to aid in proper cleansing, while Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil serves as a conditioning agent to maintain skin softness. Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract and Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract are included for their antioxidant and skin-conditioning properties, which may contribute to a healthier-looking appearance. Aloe Barbadensis Flower Extract soothes the skin, and Butylene Glycol functions as a humectant, helping to attract and retain moisture, aiming for a hydrated and refreshed complexion.
