Rinses cleanly with no residue
Why this exists
Dry and mature skin often pays for cleansing with a loss of comfort, softness, and surface lipids. This formula is built to remove makeup and daily buildup the way an oil cleanser does, while keeping the rinse-off ease and lighter finish of a milk. Its cleansing structure leans on lipid-rich oils, so the cleansing action and the nourishing action happen together rather than in conflict. Argan, shea, avocado, and jojoba bring a cushioning emollient base, while cornflower and peony add a quieter soothing presence. The result is a cleanser that respects the skin barrier as it clears the day away, leaving the face clean, but also noticeably more nourished than it started.

How to layer this
-
1
Massage onto dry skin
Use morning or night on dry skin, smoothing it over the face to lift makeup, daily impurities, and surface build-up.
-
2
Add water to milk
Emulsify with a little water, then continue massaging so the cleanser turns lighter and more rinseable.
-
3
Rinse thoroughly
Wash away with lukewarm water or a soft cloth, leaving the skin clean, comforted, and ready for the next ritual step.
-
4
Follow with treatment
Continue with toner, mist, serum, moisturiser, or SPF as appropriate for your time of day.
What to expect
On the skin, over time
Day 1
Makeup and impurities lift with a cushioned feel, and skin is left cleaner without the usual stripped sensation. The post-cleanse finish feels soft and comfortable.
Week 1
The cleansing step feels less drying through repeated use, especially if your skin tends to feel tight after washing. Skin can feel better prepared for the rest of the ritual.
Week 4
The skin may feel consistently softer and more supple after cleansing. Over time, the cleanse can feel less like a reset and more like a nourishing first step.
The deeper detail
The formulation, the provenance, the standard
Formulation
Aqua forms the base, followed by Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, organically sourced, as the primary emollient carrier. Sucrose Distearate and Sucrose Stearate are the emulsifier system : sugar-derived, gentle, and exceptionally compatible with sensitive skin. They create a stable milk emulsion that spreads with the consistency of a luxury cream but rinses without leaving an oily film.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, organically sourced, contributes its characteristic deep emollient richness. Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, organically sourced, provides tocopherol-rich, skin-compatible oleic and linoleic fatty acids from a position in the INCI that represents a meaningful dose. Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, organically sourced, adds oleic acid depth and a particular skin-softening quality. Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, organically sourced, completes the oil complex with its sebum-like wax ester structure.
Centaurea Cyanus (Cornflower) Flower Extract, organically sourced, provides anthocyanin-rich antioxidant and calming support, particularly welcome for reactive skin. Paeonia Lactiflora (Peony) Root Extract contributes additional soothing phytochemical activity and a subtle brightening effect at the surface. Glycerin and Isoamyl Laurate round out the humectant and emollient layers. The texture is silky and slightly warm on application, spreads effortlessly, and rinses away without residue.

Reviews and reflections

Cuts through SPF nicely

Simple first cleanse that dissolves makeup nicely. Skin feels nourished not tight after. I use lukewarm water, no brush, keeps it quick and easy.

love it
Lifts mascara and sunscreen. No tightness.
-
Creamy and clean
Texture is exactly what the name promises, really silky milk that spreads easily and rinses clean. My mature skin feels comfortable not parched after. Removes everyday makeup well enough that I don't need a second cleanse unless I've worn heavier eye stuff.
-

calm rinse
Feels calming. Rinse is clean not greasy.

Nice but needs lukewarm water
Takes off foundation well, finish is calm not stripped. Just needs lukewarm water for best rinse.
