That transformation lifts away impurities so you get a thorough cleanse without a greasy film. The lightweight botanical oils are balanced so they condition the skin rather than sit on top of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDispense 3–4 pumps into dry or wet hands and massage into dry skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInclude the eye area; it dissolves waterproof mascara and long-wear makeup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdd water to emulsify, then rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat key ingredients make it calming and hydrating?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThree notable botanicals support both comfort and hydration.
