Mello Marula Cream Cleanser

What it does

Formulated at a skin-friendly pH of 5.0 (and without traditional harsher surfactants or SLS), Mello Marula™ soothes and moisturizes skin with a nourishing blend of 1.0% colloidal oatmeal and marula oil, while mild but effective surfactants remove impurities, even in the eye area. This formula rinses away easily and completely to leave skin soft, clean, and balanced—never stripped.

What else to know

FYI: Mello Marula™ is a low-lather formula. Don’t worry—bubbles aren’t necessary for cleansers to do their job. Mello Marula™ contains vanilla fruit extract, which we added for its antioxidant and skin-calming benefits. Vanilla fruit also gives this formula a light, naturally sweet scent that dissipates quickly.

100% free of essential oils, silicones, dyes, solvent alcohols, and sulfate surfactants.

Dermatologist tested.

How to use

Gently massage over wet or dry skin. Add water to lather. Rinse well and pat dry. Use nightly or in alternation with other Drunk Elephant cleansers. Tip: We recommend skipping the morning cleanse because it’s not necessary if you’ve cleansed your skin the night before.

Warning: In case of eye irritation, discontinue use and consult a physician.

Ingredients

1.0% Colloidal Oatmeal: Extracted from powdered, boiled oat extract, this emollient is rich in soothing antioxidant compounds, like beta glucan, and used for its redness-reducing abilities.

Sclerocarya Birrea (Marula) Seed Oil: This super-absorbable oil, high in critical antioxidants and omegas 6 and 9, helps moisturize and nourish skin for a healthy glow.

Rosa Canina Fruit Oil: Aka rose hip seed oil. This lightweight, moisturizing oil is extracted from the seeds of the rose hip fruit and used for its high fatty acid content (mainly linoleic acid, followed by linolenic and oleic acids).

Linolenic and Linoleic Acids: Soothing fatty acids that play a key role in maintaining hydration levels, improving skin texture and suppleness while improving acid-mantle strength

Multi-Amino-Acid Blend: A mix of quick-absorbing amino acids soothes, strengthens, and moisturizes skin.
