ISLA Day Melt Cleansing Balm, 2.99 oz — balm-to-milk makeup & sunscreen remover, barrier-friendly

ISLA Day Melt Cleansing Balm is a balm-to-milk cleanser that dissolves makeup, sunscreen, and pollution residue while preserving your skin barrier.

Designed as the first step in a gentle double-cleanse or as a quick single-step wash, Day Melt converts from a rich balm into a silky milk to lift away stubborn products and daily grime without leaving dryness or tightness. Its formula combines antioxidant-rich Olive Fruit Oil, biodegradable crystalline cellulose for light physical polishing, and supporting emollients so you get effective cleansing that keeps skin calm and hydrated.

How quickly does it remove makeup, sunscreen and pollution?

Day Melt works within seconds to break down waterproof makeup, sunscreens, and environmental build-up. The balm base solubilizes oil-based residues while emulsifying into a milk that rinses clean, avoiding the need for scrubbing.

• Dissolves long-wear and water-resistant formulas fast
• No pulling or harsh rubbing required
• Rinses away without waxy residue

Will it strip my skin or leave it dry?

No—this formula is built to cleanse without stripping. A blend of olive-derived oil, vitamin E, and skin-friendly esters helps preserve moisture and support the lipid barrier, so skin feels soft, not tight, after use.

• Barrier-friendly emollients reduce post-wash tightness
• Vitamin E (0.3%) offers antioxidant support
• Leaves skin hydrated and comfortable

What makes the texture special and how do I use it?

The texture begins as a dense balm that melts on contact with body heat and transforms into a milky emulsion when mixed with water. Massage into dry skin to lift makeup, then add a little water to emulsify and rinse clean—no second cleanser required unless you prefer double-cleansing.

• Apply to dry face and massage until makeup dissolves
• Add warm water to see the balm turn into milk for easy rinsing
• Gentle enough for daily use, including on sensitive skin

What key ingredients should I know about?

Day Melt uses 33% Olive Fruit Oil for antioxidant and soothing benefits, 8% crystalline cellulose as a biodegradable, ultra-gentle polish, and vitamin E to support skin resilience. The combination targets effective removal without compromising skin health.

• 33% Olive Fruit Oil: softens and protects against oxidation
• 8% Crystalline Cellulose: light, eco-friendly exfoliation
• Vitamin E and hydrating esters for barrier support

Who is this for: ISLA Day Melt is suitable for anyone who wears daily sunscreen or makeup and wants thorough cleansing without irritation—especially helpful for sensitive, reactive, or barrier-compromised skin. It’s ideal for those who prefer a nourishing first cleanse, travelers who need one-step removal, or anyone seeking an effective, eco-conscious formula with biodegradable polishing agents.
