Introducing our nourishing oil to milk cleanser, la lune de velours removes make-up effectively whilst delivering hydration, leaving skin feeling cushioned, supple, and visibly healthier.

This replenishing silver oil to milk cleanser is formulated with our patented fusion of Silver Hydrosol & DNA HP and enhanced with organic Sweet Almond Oil and Argan Oil for a velvety balm-like consistency. Boosted with Vitamin E, this skin-loving cleanser nurtures a youthful glow while locking in moisture, soothing inflammation or breakouts, and protecting skin from environmental wear and tear.

We combine cutting-edge science with natural, skin-balancing oils for a deeply hydrating and nourishing cleanser that gently but deeply cleanses skin. Our oil-based cleanser effortlessly binds to excess oil and sebum on the face, gently lifting it off the complexion without stripping skin of moisture, to help reduce acne. Once activated with water, the silver face wash transforms into a lightweight milk, and rinses off to reveal glowing skin.

99.8% from natural origins, la lune de velours comes with an ethically-sourced fina silk sea sponge to gently buff the skin and enhance each cleanse. Suitable for even the most sensitive skin.

This balm-like cleanser is adored by make-up artists around the world, both to prep the skin and also to remove even the strongest of looks on photoshoots and catwalks. It leaves the models’ faces fresh and glowing, no matter how many times they’ve had their faces painted throughout the day. Here’s what some pros have to say about la lune de velours ~

“The smell is like no other smell – subtle, herbally, little bit florally…when you rub it in, oh my god, it’s beautiful…and my skin afterwards feels beautiful”
Trinny Woodall

“Recently I’ve been… enjoying Argentum’s La Lune De Velours Oil to Milk Cleanser to remove face make-up and SPF. Its formula also makes it great for a nice, long facial massage.”
Lisa Eldridge in IMAGE magazine

la lune de velours comes with an ethically harvested fina silk sea sponge, that enhances our silver cleanser. Sourced from the Mediterranean Sea, and handpicked using traditional methods by cutting the sponge at the base, leaving the roots intact, enabling the sponge to re-grow. Using a sea sponge is the most caring, natural way to clean and massage the skin, removing excess make-up effortlessly. 

Super soft and soothing, our natural fina silk sea sponge is 100% natural and hypo-allergenic, suitable for sensitive skin.

To care for your fina silk sea sponge, rinse in warm water, squeeze gently, and allow to dry naturally where air can circulate. Discover more about caring for your sea sponge and how to keep it healthy.

Apply your silver cleanser by massaging onto dry skin, then soak the natural fina silk sea sponge in water and gently massage your face in circular motions ~ watch as the cleanser transforms into a soothing milk texture. Repeat with your sponge until the water runs clear to reveal clean and visibly cushioned skin.

la lune de velours can also be used with our exfoliating silver facial brush. Silver-infused bristles help sweep away make-up, dirt and bacteria for a deeper cleanse using circular motions from the centre of the face outwards and down to aid lymphatic drainage. Simply remove the balm with your natural fina silk sea sponge as usual and marvel at how soft, smooth and clean the skin looks and feels.

la lune de velours can be used daily, morning and/or evening ~ or even together with le savon lune, our facial cleansing bar, as a two-stage cleansing routine. Follow with our enriching silver face cream, la potion infinie ~ glowing skin awaits…

For optimum potency, avoid contact with water (even a drop will begin to turn the balm to liquid) and store your oil to milk cleanser at room temperature away from direct heat and sunlight. Once open, use within 6 months.

“I knew we needed to create a deeply nourishing cleanser with a difference because in the beauty world, the bar is high for cleansing balms. Combining our patented science with natural and botanical skin-soothing oils like Sweet Almond Oil and Argan Oil, la lune de velours successfully removes make-up while deeply hydrating the skin without leaving a trace of residue or oiliness ~ some of the world’s best make-up artists adore it for this reason!”

Applying our nourishing oil to milk cleanser is a luxurious, sensuous experience. Its uplifting and calming  fragrance was developed in Grasse, the scent capital of France using 99.8% natural ingredients.

We use violet glass jars and bottles loved by apothecaries everywhere because they protect natural ingredients from daylight which can cause degradation. Our bespoke jars block the complete spectrum of visible light with the exception of violet light. This extends the shelf life and potency of la lune de velours.

Each jar of la lune de velours contains 1 of 12 archetype cards. CREATOR, SAGE, MAGICIAN, CAREGIVER, HERO, JESTER, INNOCENT, REBEL, EXPLORER, RULER, EVERYMAN & LOVER, delivered by chance ~ always with love.

Our archetype cards encourage you to uncover symbolic imagery that reflect inherent energies, patterns that are common to us all.

With a sense of fun, we invite you to draw energy from the imagery and symbolism, using your intuition to help reflect your subconscious. The idea is to acknowledge inner beauty ~ focus on their message to inspire balance and harmony within…
