    Ingredients
    Australian Davidson Plum 

    Native to the hinterland of northern New South Wales, Davidson Plum is rich in antioxidants which help protect the skin from free radical damage. Naturally occurring polysaccharides help to reduce transepidermal water loss and protect the skin's barrier function.

    Grapeseed Oil 

    This Vitamin E rich oil is known for its anti-inflammatory properties which help to calm the skin. Grapeseed Oil is also rich in antioxidants which assist in protecting the skin from free radical damage caused by environmental stress.

    Australian Sandalwood Seed Oil 

    Rich in Ximenynic Acid, one of the rarest fatty acids in the plant world, this luxe natural oil is anti-inflammatory, increases micro-circulation and reduces excess sebum. 

    Bisabolol 

    Extracted from Chamomile, Bisabolol is rich in Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) and works to deeply hydrate the skin, reduce moisture loss and assist with reducing redness and irritation.

    Formulated without these ingredients and more 

    Parabens, Sulphates SLS and SLES, Phthalates, Mineral Oils, Formaldehydes, Formaldehyde-releasing agents, Coal Tar, Hydroquinone, Triclosan, and Triclocarban.

    One Balm, Four Ways

    As your daily first cleanse: Melt away the day's makeup, SPF, pollution - and problems - then follow with your second cleanser.

    As your makeup remover: Break down even the most stubborn long-wearing makeup, without irritation.

    As a nourishing mask: Leave a lush layer on clean skin for up to 10 minutes as a deeply hydrating mask.

    In an at-home facial: Take a minute to gently massage Melting Moment over the face, neck and décolletage in upward circular movements.

    Pro tip: Always apply your balm to dry skin, and add warm water to emulsify before rinsing or gently wiping off with a damp face cloth.

    Love it more than I wanted to....

    I'm an avid hot cloth cleanser fan, so I have to admit I didn't want this to become my favourite, but after trying a well known cleansing oil as a pre-makeup, makeup remover before my hot cloth cleanser, I decided to take the plunge and give this a go in a bid to obliterate that pesky 3 step cleansing routine forever.

    I definitely wouldn't have paid full price first time, but after receiving a £10 off voucher for reviewing my beloved Liquid Gold, I gave it a try. I'm glad I did! The balm smells like heaven, and there teeny tiny little grains in it that don't quite feel like an exfoliant but are satisfying to run over your skin as your makeup melts away. A little goes a long way, and although I'm told that one cleanse is all that's required, I'm a triple cleanse girl and so the very least I'll do is two.

    I was expecting my perimenopausal, occasionally acnic skin to break out the next day but....I didn't. And it still hasn't.

    Am I converted.....? Hmmmm, I'd love to be but this is an expensive way to remove my make-up when I can use incorporate an extra step and an additional 3 minutes per day for half the price. I think I'll switch between the two for now unless I see an offer on in which allows me to use it more often for a while.

    Delicious Melting Moment

    Yes delicious, beautiful product..

    Step 1 use the melting moment cleansing balm to clean my makeup off..

    step 2 use the balancing cleanser to give my face & pores a second clean…

    The Melting moment cleanser is so easy to use, just a small scoop on my finger rub over my face & wipe off with a warm wet cloth, makes my skin feel clean & refreshed..

    beautifully packaged. Definitely recommend using this product. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Love this gorgeous product

    It literally does what it says it will, melts my makeup and suncream off better than any other makeup remover product I’ve used previously. Smells lovely and leaves my face clean and fresh.
