    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.

    Heaven in a tub

    Amazing! I have Rosacea acne-prone skin and this cleansing balm is heaven. The packaging is beautiful in its tub, the smell is calming and the consistency is butter melting. This is also my first time ever using a cleansing balm. Massaging the balm on your face is a luxury. After using the balm it has left my face feeling hydrated, calm, and clean - I wear SPF and it worked. My Rosacea also didn't flare up which is a bonus. Please keep this cleansing balm forever.
