LEPAAR - Smooth Operator / Unfolding Face + Eye Balsam / Zero Essential Oils

LEPAAR - Smooth Operator / Unfolding Face + Eye Balsam / Zero Essential Oils

Time slows right down with this sultry balsam that smoothes everything: folds, lines, edges, cracks, tension, temper...

Our Ode to coffee and it’s incredible contributions to smooth, unfolded skin. And an homage to our friend Paul Geshos of Mecca Coffee and his beautiful work with small ethical coffee farmers and sustainable collectives around the world. Both the ‘silver skin’ coffee husk and dried ‘Cascara’ coffee cherry are by-products of Paul's artisanal coffee creation, and we’re thrilled to phoenix them as SMOOTH OPERATOR. - Johanna, co-founder of Lepaar

Paired with green + roasted coffee seed oil they deliver the whole spectrum of this magical fruit most of us consume daily – a simply habitual moment for some, a deeply ritualistic moment for others. For Christo and Johanna, having coffee together every morning is a moment when time stands still, surfaces become smooth, edges soften, and infinite possibilities unfold.

ZERO DOSAGE ESSENTIAL OIL

For women and men of all skin types. Especially benefits mature, wrinkled, lined, sensitive + dry skin.

Fragrance profile: Complex, aromatic layers of Coffee: Chocolate. Mocca. Chai. Vanilla. Sweet. Spicy. Fruity. A rich, sultry, seductive perfume, smoothly transporting your senses to another realm, another headspace – for a moment, everything softens. And the radio plays soft, funky soul.

How to use: Great to use daily or alternate with any other composition from the KAIROS collection. Or mix and match - this is your moment!

Massage a few drops into still damp face every morning. Very effective to use as an under eye intensive to remove the look of bags and dark circle: Gently massage 1 drop into the skin under each eye, leave for 10-15 minutes, dab off.
