BENEFITS
This make-up remover not only removes cosmetic residues thoroughly but also unclogs pores, hydrates, soothes irritation, and nourishes your skin.
Jojoba oil – provides deep hydration and doesn’t clog pores. It’s great for skin cleansing and also for make-up removal, including waterproof products, as it helps dissolve cosmetic residues.
Sweet almond oil – very mild, moisturizing, and rich in vitamins A and E, which support skin health. It has a soothing effect and is ideal for sensitive skin. It also helps remove make-up, especially products based on oils, like foundations.
Rose hydrosol – known for its moisturizing, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties. While it doesn't directly help in dissolving make-up, it enhances the formula with toning and hydrating effects, which are especially valuable after removing make-up.
If you have skin with enlarged capillaries, witch hazel hydrosol is an excellent choice as it has an astringent and soothing effect.
Vitamin E – acts as an antioxidant, supports skin regeneration, and protects against harmful free radicals. It also helps stabilize the oils in the formula, extending the product’s shelf life.
Nature at its best. So simple 💚
