How to use it
Morning & Night
Massage balm over entire face morning and night. Ensure skin and fingertips are dry on application, avoid eye area if sensitive. Rinse well with warm water or remove with a damp washcloth. For a boost of hydration, let balm sit as a mask for 5 minutes after application before rinsing. Directly after cleansing use Rock Rose Face Serum to prep and tone your skin for your daily routine.
Founder Shani + Porter's Tip
Cleanses thoroughly and rinses clean, with no residue, while preserving skin flora for a healthy microbiome. Clinically formulated with clean, potent desert botanicals, and won't clog pores like coconut oil-based balms. May also be used as an anti-irritation mask, gua sha slip or aftershave treatment.

"This is ABSOLUTELY hands down the most incredible cleanser I have EVER used. It's unlike anything else I've ever experienced and my skin feels like its singing afterwards. Definitely a holy grail status item."
