THE APOTHECARY MELTING CREAMS

Creamy Cleansing Melts for a Nourished Skin Barrier & Elevated Sensory Experience

A cream cleanser should do more than remove the day — it should mark the transition into evening care with warmth, softness, and composure.

The Apothecary Melting Creams are modern balm-cream hybrids that melt makeup and sunscreen with ease, provide a gentle physical refinement from milled botanicals and clays, and transform into a cushioned cream upon contact with water.
They rinse cleanly, leaving the skin soft, balanced, and quietly renewed. Perfect for evening cleansing in a single step.

Each formula expresses a Modus — a guiding philosophy of care shaped by the skin’s needs:

Floreát — Triple Oats & Almond
Ataraxia — Petalmilk
Claritas — Peppermint & Matcha

Three variations. One intention: cleansing as comfort, clarity, and quiet ritual.

A Modern Balm-Cream for Sensory Night Cleansing

Traditional cleansing balms tend to lean oily and occlusive; traditional cream cleansers lean waxy or stripping.
The Melting Creams do neither.

They rely on intelligent emulsification, oat-based softness, gentle clays, and sensory lipids to create a balm that:

• melts instantly on the skin

• gently exfoliates without abrasion

• emulsifies into a creamy rinse

• removes makeup, SPF, and daily buildup

• respects the moisture barrier

• rinses clean without tightness

The result is cleansing that feels restorative rather than purely functional — a nightly cleansing routine that becomes an anticipated experience shaped by warmth, texture, and aroma.

Why the Melting Creams Work

Balm-to-Cream Emulsification
Each formula transforms with water, allowing a smooth, cushioned rinse that leaves the skin conditioned, not oily.

Gentle Botanical Polishing
Finely milled clays, oat powders, starches, and plant extracts offer a soft tactile refinement without harsh scrubbing.

Heritage Oils & Core Curative™
Prickly pear, amaranth, cucumber, and cloudberry seed oils support lipid replenishment during the cleansing stage — the moment lipids are most easily lost.

Sensory Intelligence
Each variation carries a distinct, 100% botanical aromatic identity, crafted to elevate the cleansing experience without overwhelming the senses.

Thoughtful Texture Design
Clays, esters, and oat components provide slip, creaminess, and a refined finish, turning cleansing into a tactile comfort.

THE VARIATIONS

TRIPLE OATS & ALMOND | FLOREÁT MELTING CREAM

Almond, Milk & Honey Aroma

Floreát (Latin for “let it flourish”) embodies nourishment, softness, and radiant comfort — a cleansing philosophy for dry, normal, and pro-aging skin.

A Modern Cream for Radiant Comfort

Created for those who want a soothing, replenishing nighttime cleanse, this formula blends triple oats, almond milk, and silky botanical lipids into a cream that melts into a warm, nurturing milk.
It removes makeup easily while supporting the skin’s moisture barrier.

The result is a cleanse that feels indulgent yet steady — a return to softness.

Why Floreát Works

Triple Oat Complex
Oat flour, oat lipid extract, and colloidal oats offer cushion, slip, and a visibly calm finish.

Nut-Milk Softness
Almond and coconut milks lend a creamy, milk-warm texture that comforts dry skin.

Heritage Lipid Replenishment
Meadowfoam, prickly pear, and cloudberry help the skin feel conditioned and supported.

Subtle, Warm Aroma
A quiet blend of almond, milk, and honey notes — nostalgic, soft, and embracing.

Texture & Finish

• Soft, creamy balm-cream

• Gentle exfoliating botanicals, ending with the addition of water

• Melts instantly

• Rinses to a pillowy, conditioned finish

• Leaves the skin comforted and luminous

PETALMILK | ATARAXIA MELTING CREAM

Coconut Rose Aroma — EO-Free, Perfume-Free

Ataraxia (Greek philosophical idea meaning “a state of composed calm”) reflects a cleansing philosophy designed for sensitive, delicate, or easily overwhelmed skin.

A Modern Cream for Quiet Care

This is a melt created for fragility — soft, gentle, milk-like, and intentionally understated.
It uses oat proteins, coconut milk, and barrier-supportive seed oils to cleanse without provoking sensitivity.
Nothing is harsh. Nothing is forced.
Just soft cleansing shaped by quiet intelligence.

Why Ataraxia Works

Pillowy, Sensitive-Skin Base
Coconut milk, oat peptides, and tapioca starch create a soft cloud-like cream.

Barrier-Focused Oils
Cucumber seed, cloudberry, amaranth, and prickly pear nurture the lipid matrix.

Petal & Stem Botanicals
Chamomile, centella, aloe, and rose offer soothing botanical support.

Aroma by Nature Alone
No fragrance. No essential oils.
Just the gentle, naturally occurring aroma of coconut and rose.

Texture & Finish

• Soft oil-balm to cream

• Light botanical exfoliation, which ends instantly upon the addition of water

• Melts into a delicate milky cream

• Rinses clean but hydrated

• Leaves the skin quiet, soft, and settled

PEPPERMINT & MATCHA | CLARITAS MELTING CREAM

Peppermint & Citrus Aroma

Claritas (Latin for “brightness, clarity”) is a cleansing philosophy for balanced refinement — ideal for oily, combination, or dull-feeling skin.

A Modern Cream for Refined Clarity

Created for those who want a cleanser that refreshes without stripping, this formula integrates mineral clays, green tea, and citrus botanicals into a melt that cleans deeply while respecting the skin’s equilibrium.

It is both invigorating and composed — clarity without aggression.

Why Claritas Works

Mineral-Clay Conditioning
Kaolin and purple clay lift buildup with surprising softness.

Botanical Brightening
Matcha, citrus extracts, and peppermint leaf encourage a look of freshness and luminosity.

Lightweight Lipids for Balance
Meadowfoam, jojoba esters, and green tea seed oil support clarity without heaviness.

Refreshing, Uplifting Aroma
A bright blend of peppermint and citrus — clean, energizing, and airy.

Texture & Finish

• Creamy, silky melt

• Light botanical exfoliation, which ends with the addition of water

• Emulsifies instantly

• Rinses to a fresh, balanced, non-greasy finish

• Leaves the skin smooth, refined, and awake

What You’ll Notice

With Every Use
Skin feels soft, clean, and subtly conditioned — no tightness, no residue. The experience elevates the cleansing process, becoming a pleasurable step in your nighttime routine.

Aroma Designed With Intention

At Elixir Sapientia, scent is part of care — used with restraint, crafted for comfort, and never meant to overwhelm.

• Floreát — warm almond, soft milk, honeyed comfort. 100% botanical.

• Ataraxia — gentle coconut rose, created with no fragrance oils and no essential oils.

• Claritas — bright peppermint-citrus clarity. 100% botanical.

Each aroma reflects its Modus — not simply fragrance, but a sensory philosophy.

How to Use

Apply to dry skin and massage gently to break down makeup, SPF, and impurities, keeping eyes closed. Add a small amount of warm water to emulsify the balm into a creamy texture and massage again. Remove with a warm, damp washcloth. Rinse the cloth and repeat as needed until skin is clean and refreshed.
