La Prairie Supreme Balm Cleanser

A cleanser that changes state twice: balm to oil, then oil to a milky emulsion. That is not theatre, it is how you lift makeup without stripping skin.

It dissolves makeup and takes pollutants, dirt and the day’s residue with it, and it manages that while leaving the moisture barrier intact — the part most cleansers this thorough get wrong. It calms rather than tightens. Skin is left clean, soft and smooth, and does not need rescuing afterwards.

Work it into dry skin first, then add water. Wetting your hands before the balm is how you waste the first half of it.
