A rich, oil-based cleansing balm that melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup without stripping the skin. Powered by Safflower Seed Oil to nourish dryness, Avocado Oil to support the skin barrier, and Sesame Seed Oil to help balance pH while delivering antioxidant-rich nourishment. The balm melts into a silky oil as you massage, then removes easily with a damp washcloth to leave skin soft, supple, and comfortably moisturized. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, dry or dehydrated skin, and ideal as the first step in a double cleanse routine with Nourishing Cleansing Milk or Pure Gel Cleanser.

The Benefits:

  • Melts into an oil to help remove makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup.
  • Cleanses thoroughly without leaving skin feeling stripped or tight.
  • Nourishes and supports the skin barrier with antioxidant-rich oils.
  • Leaves skin soft, supple, and comfortably moisturized.


Full Size Cleansing Balm: 40 g | 1.4 oz

Use AM and PM daily. Warm a dime-size amount in your hands until it melts into oil. Apply to dry skin and massage in circular motions. Wet fingertips and continue to massage, then remove with a warm, damp washcloth or cotton round. Follow with Balancing Mist and Moisture Rich Balm.

TIP: Focus on areas that need additional cleansing, like the eye area, to remove makeup.

  • Avocado Oil: Loaded with vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids to help support the skin barrier.
