LEPAAR - ROSE GOLD GLOW BALM - Energising Face Infusion

I’ve dreamed about this balm for months – how to create a beautifully fragrant and light balm around the plant family of the Rose, without the Rose fragrance? Instead, playing with the late Summer ripeness of Apple, the creamy sugar of moisturising Plum, the delightful sweet of antioxidant Strawberry and the tart sour of Vitamin C rich Sloe. A jar filled with the rose gold of the late Summer Sun. - Johanna

It’s an almost translucent, delicate and non-occlusive balm that absorbs quickly without oily residue. Composed entirely without essential oils to restore glow that seems to radiate from within the layers of the skin. The composition is subtly grounded with sun-infused extracts of Chaga mushroom, and synergises with extracts of hyaluronic rich Tremella mushroom to nourish and hydrate the skin. 

While Peony is technically not part of the Rose family, the ‘Pfingsrose’, as we call it, has big significance in my family and was my late Dad’s favourite flower. It has incredible skin calming properties to soothe. - Johanna

Skin Type: For women and men of all skin types. Especially benefits over treated, sensitive, dull, dry and delicate looking skin.

Fragrance Profile: OMG, how do I describe this! A delicately vibrant sweetness of Apple. A creamy lift of the last Summer berries. Subtle layers of resinous marzipan radiating from Peach, Plum and Apricot. An ever so light veil of falling Rose petals, interwoven with almost imperceptible earth of mushroom.

Essential Oils: Amount of Essential oils in this composition: None (0%).

Use in the morning, after cleansing. Mist your face with GLOW WHITE ROSE/SANDALWOOD WATER, then gently massage a pea size amount into the still damp skin of face and neck. You can settle your skin with another misting and layer with your favourite Face Oil.
