Its velvety texture melts effortlessly across skin, dissolving the day's makeup, SPF and impurities before transforming with water into a silky milk that rinses clean.

A distinctive blend of New Zealand glacial minerals, native kūmarahou and skin-conditioning oils elevates the everyday cleanse into a luxurious first step that leaves skin feeling beautifully soft, smooth and comfortable.

Everything you want from a thorough cleanse. None of the stripped feeling.

Effortlessly Melts Away the Day

Dissolves makeup, sunscreen, excess oil and daily impurities, lifting away buildup without harsh rubbing or tugging.

Three Textures. One Luxurious Cleanse.

A rich, cushiony balm melts into silky oil before transforming into a delicate cleansing milk that rinses away with ease.

Barrier-Conscious Cleansing

Formulated with biomimetic ceramides and conditioning lipids to respect the skin's moisture barrier, without the dryness or tightness of harsh cleansing.

For anyone who wants effective cleansing without compromising skin comfort or the delicate skin barrier and microbiome. Especially suited to normal, dry and mature skin, or skin that feels tight after conventional cleansing.

New Zealand Glacial Minerals + Kūmarahou


A distinctive mineral-botanical cleansing blend.

New Zealand glacial clay, glacier water and native kūmarahou bring together mineral and botanical cleansing traditions in a luxurious modern balm.

The glacial clay is valued for its oil-absorbing properties, while kūmarahou has a long history of use as a natural cleansing botanical. Algae-derived phycocyanin completes this distinctly Aotearoa-inspired formulation.



Replenishing lipids. Beautifully conditioned skin.

Our Biomimetic Barrier Complex brings together ceramides, phytosphingosine and fatty acids — key components of the skin's natural protective lipid barrier.

Paired with our nourishing 4-Oil Complex, these skin-compatible lipids help condition and soften throughout cleansing, leaving skin feeling smooth, supple and comfortably nourished rather than dry or depleted.
