Asteraceae botanical disclosure: this product contains Chamomilla Recutita (Camomile) Flower Extract from the Asteraceae (daisy) plant family, which includes beneficial botanicals (chamomile, calendula, arnica, helichrysum) and common allergens including ragweed. If you know you react to plants in this family (ragweed, chamomile, arnica, chrysanthemum, marigold, echinacea, or yarrow), you may be at higher risk of a reaction.

The oil-to-milk format uses sucrose ester emulsifiers (Sucrose Laurate plus Sucrose Palmitate) that bind the Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride and Sunflower Seed Oil lipid base into a milky emulsion on contact with water, allowing surfactant-free removal of long-wear makeup, sebum, and sunscreen residue. Sea Buckthorn Fruit Extract is a hydrophilic preparation rich in flavonoids and carotenoids1, distinct from the Fruit Oil. Barrier support in dry skin is reviewed in the basic-emollient literature, which examines leave-on emollients rather than cleansers2.

SCIENCE, MADE VISIBLE

A RITUAL, CONSIDERED
Each formula stands on its own and belongs to the whole. Layered with intention, morning and night, the routine becomes unmistakably yours.
A twenty four hour rhythm
THE SKIN KEEPS TIME
Skin is not the same at midnight as it is at nine in the morning. Across a single day its temperature, its acidity and the moisture it loses to the air each move on a rhythm of their own. Morning and night are not two routines. They are one, kept in time.
