Mary & May Vitamin B.C.E Cleansing Balm: The Nutrient-Rich Deep Clean
If you’re looking for a way to melt away heavy makeup and sunscreen without stripping your skin of its natural oils, the Mary & May Vitamin B.C.E Cleansing Balm is your new favorite first step. This sherbet-textured balm doesn't just clean; it feeds your skin a "vitamin cocktail" that leaves your complexion bright, soft, and glowing.
Designed for the perfect double-cleanse, it transforms from a solid balm into a silky oil upon contact with skin, then emulsifies into a milky liquid to rinse away every trace of pollution and debris.
