No scrubbing. No rubbing. No stripped skin. Just clean.

What it is
All skin types, especially dry, mature, or sensitive skin that feels depleted after ordinary cleansing. If removing makeup, sunscreen, or mascara usually involves tugging and repeated wiping, this turns the first cleanse into the most comforting two minutes of your evening.

Who it's for
All skin types, and especially anyone who wants a deeper cleanse with hydration built in. If removing makeup has always felt like a chore of tugging and scrubbing, this turns it into the best two minutes of your evening. Dry and mature skin love it most of all.

Why this works, concern by concern
A good first cleanse should remove everything you want gone without taking your skin’s comfort with it. Silky oils loosen makeup, sunscreen, and oily buildup while conditioning botanicals help dry and mature skin emerge soft, calm, and refreshed.

To Melt the Day Away

The problem: makeup that only comes off with tugging, scrubbing, and a stripped moisture barrier.

  • Grape Seed Oil. Light, antioxidant-rich, and a quiet supporter of elasticity and tone while it lifts away the oils that makeup clings to.
To Brighten and Renew

The problem: dullness, dryness, and fine lines that a harsh cleanse only deepens.

  • Cranberry Seed Oil. Packed with antioxidants and vitamin C to neutralize the free radicals behind dullness, while its natural acids gently refine the skin's surface.
  • Borage and Rose Hip Seed Oils. Borage brings GLA, a fatty acid that restores moisture and smoothness to dry, stressed skin. Rosehip is renowned for supporting skin renewal and softening the look of scars and fine lines.
To Soothe

The problem: reactive skin that flares at the very step meant to care for it.

  • Calendula Extract. The soother. Its triterpenoids calm irritation and redness, so even reactive skin comes away comfortable.
And to Keep Pores Clear

The bonus: pores stay clear, and the balm smells fresh and clean while it works.

  • Rosewood, Rosemary, and Grapefruit Oils. Naturally purifying botanicals that keep pores clear and lend the balm its fresh, clean scent.

What it's like to use
Smooth, creamy, and remarkably easy to use. Massage a small scoop over a dry face and closed eyes with dry fingertips. As the balm turns silky, makeup begins to release without tugging or scrubbing. Wipe everything away with a warm, damp cloth. The botanical scent is fresh and light, and a little goes a remarkably long way.

Use nightly as your first step. Finish with a little Mineral Castile Soap to take the final 1% off the face.

What to expect

Real results take a full skin cycle. Here's an honest timeline.

First use

A spa ritual at the sink

The balm melts on contact with skin, lifting makeup and the day's buildup while it massages in like a treatment.

First week

Comfortable, cushioned skin

Sunflower, sweet almond, and borage oils cleanse while they condition. Skin feels nourished after washing, not tight.

Ongoing

Clean skin without the tightness

Nightly cleansing leaves skin consistently soft and comfortable, while calendula, borage, and rosehip help dry and mature skin feel cared for rather than depleted.

Where it fits in your Miracle Ritual

1

This balm, on dry skin

Use dry fingertips to massage the balm over a dry face and eyes.

2

Remove

Wipe away with a warm, damp cloth. Makeup, sunscreen, and grime come with it.

3

Double cleanse if desired

A double-cleanse with a little Mineral Castile Soap takes the final 1% off the face. Then toner, serums, and moisturizer.

Questions, answered

What's the difference between this and the cleansing oil?
Texture and ritual. The oil is quick and rinses with water. The balm is richer, removes with a warm cloth, and doubles as a gentle facial massage. Drier skin tends to prefer the balm; both melt makeup equally well.
Is it safe for eyes?
Yes. Massage gently over closed eyes and even waterproof mascara dissolves.
Will it leave a film?
A warm, damp cloth takes the balm and everything it dissolved with it. For that final 1%, follow with a little Mineral Castile Soap. What remains is a light, comfortable softness, not a residue.
How long does a jar last?
You need only a small scoop for the face and eyes, so the 4 oz jar typically lasts for months with nightly use. Customer reviews consistently confirm that a little goes a long way.
