Why You’ll Love This Cleansing Balm:. The buttery texture melts into your skin, transforming from a solid to an oil to a lightweight milk for a luxurious cleanse..

It’s formulated with omega-rich Apple Seed Oil and Shea Butter to help protect your skin’s moisture barrier.. It leaves your skin feeling plump and bouncy after use.. Product Claims:. This cleansing balm is made with omega-rich Apple Seed Oil and Shea Butter to help melt away makeup and purify the skin without drying or stripping it. The unique triple-phase formula starts as a soft solid, melts into an oil, and then transforms into a lightweight milk with a splash of water. This helps remove impurities, pollution, and other ageing triggers without pulling or tugging at the skin.. Hero Ingredients:. The star ingredient is Cold-Pressed Apple Seed Oil, which is made from the leftover seeds from apple cider production. This oil is rich in omegas and helps to maintain moisture within the skin. It’s paired with Shea Butter, which also helps to support the skin’s moisture barrier.. What Does It Feel and Smell Like?. The texture is a rich, bouncy, buttery balm that feels wonderfully soft and luxurious on your skin. As you massage it in, it melts into an oil, making the cleansing process a real treat. It has a juicy, apple-crisp scent created with vibrant Galbanum, citrusy Litsea Cubeba Oil, and notes of melon and peach to capture the fresh vibrancy of an apple.. The Best Way To Use It:. Massage a small amount of the balm onto dry skin with your fingertips. Take a moment to work it over your face, paying extra attention to areas with makeup. Add a little water to your fingertips to emulsify the balm into a milky lather, then rinse it all away. As an expert tip, double cleansing is a fantastic way to ensure your skin is perfectly clean. Use this balm as your first cleanse to remove all makeup and SPF, then follow with a water-based cleanser for a deeper clean.. Why It’s Escentual:.
