What is the Eneomey Mellow Cleanser used for?
The Mellow Cleanser from Laboratoire Eneomey is an oil balm that cleanses and removes makeup from the face and eyes while moisturizing the skin. It should be used once or twice a day as the first step in your skincare routine.
Its texture changes as you use it: the balm melts into an oil upon contact with the skin, dissolving makeup, then transforms into a milky emulsion when water is added. It rinses off without leaving an oily film.
It is suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin. It is made in France.
After cleansing, we recommend Eneomey’s Hyaluronic Hydrating and Soothing Mask, to be applied to clean skin.
What are its main active ingredients?
According to Eneomey, the formula contains 26% of a blendof plant-based oils, including sweet almond oil and jojoba oil, which cleanse and remove makeup. Squalane, at 5%, hydrates the skin.
In a corneometric assessment conducted by the brand on 10 participants, skin hydration increased by 32.6% 2 hours after rinsing and by 25.5% 4 hours after rinsing.
Helpful tip: Always use dry fingers or the clean, dry spatula to scoop out the balm, and do not let water get into the jar. Water causes the product’s surface to turn white and alters its texture.
How to use the Mellow Cleanser?
Once or twice a day, scoop out a small amount of balm with clean, dry fingers or a clean, dry spatula. Apply it to dry skin on your face and around your eyes, and massage to melt the balm and dissolve makeup. Add water to emulsify the product, then rinse.
What are the precautions for use?
- The balm is sensitive to temperature: above 40 °C, it may soften and release a layer of oil; in cold temperatures, its texture may become grainy. This does not affect its ability to melt.
- Store between 5 °C and 25 °C, away from heat and direct sunlight. Avoid storing it in a car, near a radiator, on a windowsill, or in the refrigerator.
- Water on the surface may cause the product to turn white: avoid letting water get into the jar.
- Close the jar tightly after each use.
- The formula contains fragrance and sweet almond oil.
