Multi award-winning and Ecocert COSMOS approved, Evolve Gentle Cleansing Melt is a natural, organic and artisan made cleanser, designed to soothe and hydrate skin while wiping away the grease and grime of the day.

Evolve’s balm is a gentle alternative to traditional liquid cleansers or soaps, both of which can contain harsh chemicals that dry and irritate the skin, often leaving it feeling tight, dry and raw and looking red and sore.

While your usual face wash or facial soap can easily wash away the skin’s natural protective barrier, disrupting the natural oils we need for soft, clear skin, this beautiful cleansing balm gives a flawless cleanse without harm or discomfort.

How does Evolve face cleanser work?

Gently massaged onto your dry face, this luxurious cleansing balm contains oils that melt into the skin, loosening dirt and make up with no need to use a flannel or muslin cloth.

This gentle cleanser contains natural sugar extracts which gently combine with water to turn the balm into a soothing milk cleanser, that rinses away effortlessly, no vigorous rubbing or scrubbing required.

Evolve’s double cleansing action makes it suitable for even the most sensitive skin, cleaning away the most stubborn make up and leaving skin deeply hydrated, refreshed, calm and oh so clean, with no risk of damage.

Baobab and vanilla: Evolve’s wonder combo

Containing 100% natural ingredients, this cleansing melt is a great choice for those tired of using harsh ingredients on their skin.

Nourishing baobab oil is at the heart of this luxurious balm. Parts of the African baobab, a distinctive looking tree most closely associated with the stunning Madagascan landscape, have been used since ancient times.

We now know that many of the benefits associated with baobab are due to its antioxidant properties and abundance of vitamin A, vitamin C, protein and calcium.

This dynamic combination of nutrients appears to aid skin elasticity and help to protect from free radical damage, largely responsible for the signs of premature aging.

Rich in omega 3 oils, Baobab has a comedogenic rating of 2, which means it will not clog most people’s pores. Research suggests that it has rich moisturising properties too, aiding skin texture and elasticity.

Sweetly soothing, the vanilla used in this Evolve cleansing balm brings a relaxing calm to the end of your day, helping to make the job of removing your make up a restful ritual. Vanilla appears to have antioxidant properties too, supporting skin’s resistance to damaging environments.

Does Evolve Cleansing Melt really work?

Melting away dirt, grease and make up with no abrasives and no need for a flannel seems like a bold claim.

However Evolve have done their research and the results are good. In customer trials over 93% of users reported a significant improvement to their skin while more than 90% agreed that their complexion looked more radiant after using this gentle cleansing balm. Meanwhile over 98% of customers felt that their skin was thoroughly nourished and felt less dry after use.

Love this cleanser. It’s my second pot and just hope they never stop making it. So good for perimenopausal skin.

I have dry mature skin and this gel is perfect texture for it. I don’t usually use foundation but yes for sunscreen, concealer, eyeliner and eye shadows. This cleanser can take them all off without trace.
