Cleansing balms come from some of the oldest traditions in beauty. Avocated over anything else in Asia for luminous skin, balms are the first cleanse of choice for most ‘sk-intellectuals’ – and this one’s a cut above the rest. This black, oily balm is made with Hungarian Moor Mud and thermal waters; rich in clays, it draws out impurities, clears congested pores and introduces key minerals (calcium, zinc, copper and magnesium) which boost the synthesis of collagen, strengthens the skin barrier and antioxidant defence against free radicals. An all-in-one facial cleanser and top notch make up remover.

Start with your cheeks and work in a circular motion to break down the balm, once it is oily, you work it up to your eyes and it will remove any make up you have on, including stubborn waterproof mascara. This is meant as a one step process, you clean your face with this and wipe, not wash, it off leaving all the oils and minerals behind as a treatment for the skin.

Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm is a nightly cleanser and super fast make up remover that relies on natural extracts, minerals from the Hungarian thermal waters and mud, plus the famous 'Hydro Mineral Transference' to cheat your way to beautiful skin. The 'Hydro Mineral Transference' is a brilliant Omorovicza invention that enhances the body's ability to recognise a good thing, in this case the clays, vitamins, minerals and trace elements found in this product's ingredients list. A dreamy first cleanse and perfect for any 'sk-intellectual'.
