Active ingredients

• Sesame oil (Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil) consists largely of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid and oleic acid. The oil with lecithin and vitamins E and A dissolves harmful deposits from the skin and thus signs of premature aging. Sesame oil also has a soothing effect, reduces redness and strengthens the skin's protective barrier.
  
• Shea butter (Butyrospermum parkii (shea) nut butter) is obtained from the fruits of the karité tree. Shea butter has a long tradition as a care and healing agent. Rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E and beta carotene, butter protects against environmental pollution, binds moisture, fights free radicals, promotes cell regeneration and makes skin and hair soft and supple.
• Blue Tansy / Blue Tansy (Tanacetum Annuum (Blue Tansy) Flower Oil) - Also known as Moroccan chamomile. The word "Tansy" comes from the Greek word "Athanaton" and means "immortal" - Blue Tansy promotes cell regeneration. The healing properties of Blue Tansy are based on the azulene pigment, which gives it a striking blue color, soothes the skin, and soothes redness and inflammation. Blue Tansy smoothes damaged capillaries and improves the strength and elasticity of the tissue.
• Castor oil (Ricinus communis seed oil) consists largely of ricinoleic acid, which has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. The oil works against impurities, moisturizes, improves the texture of scars and smoothes the skin. Its high content of vitamin E also helps fight free radicals and premature skin aging.
• Lotus flower/seed extract (Lotus Flower (Nelumbo Nucifera)) is rich in vitamins and contains proteins, tannins and flavonoids. The plant helps in the fight against oxidative stress and ensures better moisture penetration of the skin. Lotus has a balancing, calming effect, normalizes sebum production, strengthens the skin's protective barrier and thus protects against harmful environmental pollution. The beautiful aquatic plant was used by queens in ancient India for beauty baths and has a long tradition in Asia as an active ingredient in medicine and cosmetics.
• Mango Seed Butter (Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter) - Native mango butter is the fruit kernel fat of the tropical fruit. Mango butter provides moisture and has a calming and regenerating effect on the skin and scalp. The nutritious butter contains various fatty acids, vitamins A, C, D and E as well as various minerals.
• Jasmine (Jasminum Officinale Oil / Extract) - the sensual, soft and exotic floral scent of jasmine has a calming effect, improves mood, alleviates fears and is said to have an energizing and aphrodisiac effect. Jasmine has an antibacterial and blood circulation-enhancing effect, it promotes the self-regeneration of skin cells and combats inflammatory skin conditions. Also suitable for hair care. Jasmine oil strengthens the hair roots and supplies the hair with moisture. The hair becomes smoother, shinier, has more volume and hair breakage is reduced.

FAQ

Why is a cleansing balm good for the skin?

Cleansing balms are oil-based makeup removers that dissolve makeup without harming the skin. Shea and mango butter help break down makeup and sunscreen and soften skin.

Why is cleansing the skin so important?

Without cleansing and detoxifying, your skin would be covered with a thick layer of dirt and oil, making it difficult for skin care ingredients to penetrate the skin properly. Clean skin allows for effective absorption of care products and makes your skin more receptive to subsequent treatments such as peels, masks, serums and moisturizers.

When should I cleanse my skin?

Our RANAVAT-Cosmetologist recommends cleansing the skin twice a day:

-In the morning to remove excess sebum and dead skin cells accumulated during the night and support skin balance.

In the evening, to cleanse the skin (makeup, sunscreen, dirt, oil, etc.) and to better prepare the skin to absorb care products. 

Does this make my skin feel oily? Does it leave a residue? Do I have to use another cleaning product afterwards?

The Lotus Cleansing Balm simply rinses off, but we always recommend double cleansing with our Cream Cleanser for the ultimate royal cleansing experience. Our balm uses high quality oils that nourish your skin and do not clog pores.

Does it burn your eyes? Can I use it on my eyes?

While the formula is gentle for medium makeup, we recommend using a separate eye makeup remover if makeup is long-wearing. When cleaning your eyes, we recommend gently stroking your eyes with a cloth or cotton ball to gently remove makeup.

How much should I use?

To remove light makeup, start with a tenth-sized amount of Lotus Cleansing Balm on dry hands and face. Massage gently onto face and eyes to loosen makeup. Add water to emulsify and rinse. Pat dry with a cheesecloth using light pressure to remove any remaining makeup. For the second cleaning, clean with Crème Cleanser.

To remove long-lasting makeup, apply a quarter-sized amount of Lotus Cleansing Balm to dry hands and face. Massage gently to loosen makeup. Before adding water, use a cotton ball to remove stubborn eye makeup. Then add water and emulsify, avoiding the eyes. Then double cleanse with Crème Cleanser to leave the skin soft and supple. If you have heavy eye make-up, we recommend using a separate eye make-up remover.

I have acne-prone skin, can I use the cleansing balm?

YES, ours RANAVAT-Esthetician recommends double cleansing with the Lotus Cleansing Balm to first remove makeup and cleanse the skin, and then with the Cream Cleanser to leave the skin soft and supple.

Does this cleansing balm contain fragrance?

We do not use synthetic fragrances, only natural ingredients that provide a sensory experience.

Is the cleansing balm non-comedogenic?

The products of RANAVAT are designed for all skin types and we do not use any comedogenic ingredients in our products.
