Melting Waterless Cleansing Balm

(Formula #100-155D)

Melting Waterless Cleansing Balm

Why we love it:

This solid balm melts onto skin as you rub it in. Adding a touch of warm water forms a milky layer, that then rinses away clean. The orange wax provides extra emollience while also imparting a refreshing natural orange aroma. The result: skin feels clean, soft, and conditioned.

Trends it supports:
