How it works

The cleansing balm is formulated to dissolve impurities such as dirt, makeup, and sunscreen when applied to dry skin. Ethylhexyl Palmitate and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride act as emollients to soften and smooth the skin, while Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil provides additional moisturization. Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Wax conditions the skin, and Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil, along with Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Oil, serve as antioxidants that help protect the skin. Vaccinium Macrocarpon (Cranberry) Seed Oil conditions the skin, and Adansonia Digitata Seed Oil acts as another emollient. When water is added, the balm transforms into a milky texture, helping to rinse all impurities away while leaving the skin with a dewy appearance.
