Double cleansing, perfected for a barrier that's protected

DETAILS

A healthy skin barrier is naturally radiant, smooth, and plump, while a compromised barrier, depleted of hydration and lipids, looks rough, flaky, and dull. While many cleansers can further strip and weaken a compromised barrier, this velvety balm actually helps skin replenish its own barrier-strengthening lipids and ceramides with continued use, making your first skincare step a step toward hydrated, healthier-looking skin

Which skin type is it good for?
  • Balanced • Oily • Combination • Dry • Sensitive

Frequently Asked Questions

This cleanser removes makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities while supporting the skin barrier. It combines deep cleansing with replenishing lipids, leaving skin soft, hydrated, and comfortable - never tight or stripped.

Yes. The balm is suitable for dry, sensitive and mature skin types and is designed to cleanse without leaving skin feeling stripped or uncomfortable.

Lipids help maintain the skin barrier and prevent moisture loss. As skin ages, natural lipid levels can decline, making replenishment increasingly important for maintaining healthy, hydrated and resilient skin.

Lipid-enriched refers to the inclusion of skin-identical lipids that help replenish what is often lost during cleansing. These lipids support the skin barrier, helping skin feel stronger, smoother, and more hydrated over time.

Hormonal changes can weaken the skin barrier, making skin more prone to dryness, irritation and moisture loss. Supporting the barrier helps skin retain hydration and remain more resilient.

Perfect

"As someone with acne-prone skin, I am always looking for gentle products to meet my needs. This balm was the perfect mixture of cleansing and nourishing to protect my skin as it tried to heal, and cleanse my skin to prevent new breakouts. I notices a more even texture, and fewer new breakouts after starting this product. Now I am on my second jar."

Recommend

"I’ve been using the Lipid-Enriched Double Cleansing Balm for a while now, and I’m genuinely impressed with how well it melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities. The texture starts off as a rich, buttery balm but quickly transforms into a silky oil once massaged into the skin, making the cleansing process feel smooth and luxurious."

— Ta H. (5/5)

double cleanse face wash

"It made my face so dry and my eyes burned. You advertise it takes off makeup and safe for eyes but the container says do not use on eyes. There’s a contradiction. And lastly there wasn’t a lot of product. Ran out very quickly."

Cleansing balm

"Easy to use and gets makeup off really well."
