A cleansing milk sits between an oil and a gel — it lathers lightly, but it is fundamentally a conditioning cleanse rather than a stripping one. Skin that feels squeaky after washing has usually been over-cleansed, and this is the corrective.
The formula leans on adaptogens: tulsi, reishi and snow mushroom, all aimed at skin dealing with pollution, stress and inflammation rather than a specific condition.
Who it suits
All skin types. Particularly good for urban skin — pollution exposure, air conditioning and general environmental load — and for anyone whose skin has become reactive from harsh cleansers.
What is in it, and why
- Tulsi (holy basil) — antioxidant-rich adaptogen; minimises the look of blemishes, inflammation and redness
- Snow mushroom — super-humectant; enhances elasticity and improves barrier function
- Reishi mushroom — polysaccharides that improve hydration; antioxidants that help reduce the look of puffiness
- Birch water — nutrient-rich; purifies and hydrates while minimising the visible effects of pollution
How to use it
Massage into damp skin to raise a light lather, then rinse. Works morning and evening; in the evening use it after an oil cleanser if you have worn SPF or makeup.
What to pair it with
Follow with a mist and a moisturiser suited to your skin. Browse Cleansers, Toners & Mists and Moisturizers.
