Skin feels clean — never tight. Makeup melts away effortlessly. Complexion feels softer, smoother and more comfortable. Barrier feels supported, not stripped.
Real-World Skin Concern: Barrier Weakness & Chronic Dryness

Many cleansing products prioritise removal over skin health, leaving dry and ageing skin vulnerable, tight and depleted. This Nourishing Cleansing Balm respects the skin’s natural ecosystem while dissolving impurities, helping to maintain a strong barrier and a balanced microbiome — the foundation for visible skin change.
