Key actives
- Plant squalane 12% — barrier-mimicking emollient that lifts SPF and pigment without stripping.
- Jojoba oil 8% — sebum-mimetic, balances oil without clogging.
- Shea butter 5% — gives the cushion-soft feel; rinses cleanly.
- Bisabolol — calms visible redness after a thorough cleanse.
How to use
In the evening, scoop a chickpea-size amount onto dry skin. Massage 30 seconds. Emulsify with water — it turns milky — then rinse. Follow with the Milk Jelly Cleanser if you wore SPF or makeup.
Safe around the eyes. Won’t sting contact lenses.
