The No.1 Belle Frais cleanser is definitely safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. There is less than 2% salicylic acid in it which is line with safety guidelines for pregnancy and breastfeeding.

This cleansing milk combines coconut oil with specific carrier oils which ensure that the coconut oil is absorbed well into the skin and does not sit on the top of the skin barrier clogging pores. The Camellia Seed oil used in the products helps them to penetrate deeply into the skin. This cleansing milk also contains a small amount of salicylic acid which helps to unclog pores and combat acne breakouts. 

The PH of our cleansing milk is 5.3. This makes it PH balanced given our skin acid mantle has a PH between 4.5 and 5.5.

We do not recommend leaving this product on the skin overnight. It is designed to be emulsified / foam with the addition of water. We do recommend massaging it well into the skin, adding water to emulsify and then rinsing off. If you are after a leave on treatment targeting congestion, we recommned our Sleeping Beauty Purifying Mousse, this is a sleep mask made with Australian pink clay and designed to unclog pores and purify the skin.

Yes. This cleanser is gentle even on the most sensitive skin! Including teenagers and will assist in unclogging pores.

Using coconut oil in our formulas should not cause any breakouts or skin reactions. This is due to the way we blend various oils in our formulas. For instance, the use of Camellia Seed Oil ensures that the coconut oil and other oils penetrate deeply into the skin and do not sit on the skin surface which is what can lead to breakouts.

Our Cleansing milk is designed to purify and cleanse the skin whilst also brightening and hydrating, without making it oily. The salicylic acid and fruit extracts inside the cleanser ensure that it balances oil production and reduces congestion and hormonal breakouts. We recomend massaging the cleanser onto dry skin, using water to emulsify it and then using a warm cloth or water to wash it off. Follow with our No.2 Citrus Rhapsody Toner Mist if you are particularly prone to oily or combination skin. 

Three pumps of the Cleansing Milk should be enough to create the desired result. Massage the milk using circular motions onto dry skin before applying water to emulsify it. 

We recommend using 2-3 pumps of the cleansing milk. Be sure to massage the milk well into the skin before adding water and massaging further.

The skincare ingredients are sourced from all over the world. We use Australian wildcrafted ingredients in the products but source from all over the world. For example our Gold Leaf is from Germany, our coconut oil is from Malaysia and our emulssfier is from Italy. Unfortunately Australia does not grow all of the botanicals which we use in the formulas. Our products are produced and manufactured in here Australia.

To mimise pores we recommend ensuring you are taking the time to unclog pores and reduce bacterial build up which is where the problem often starts.

The products we recommend for doing this include:

1. No.1 Belle Frais Cleansing Milk - this product is a purifying cleansing milk containing salicylic acid. It works to unclog and refine pores and reduce congestion whilst leaving the skin's oil balance in check
2. Desert Lime Flawless Micro-Exfoliant - regular exfoliation ensures that sebum and impurities are being swept away from the skin on a regular basis. Our exfoliant contains beads of rice which gently remove bacterial and sebum build up along with natural alpha hydroxy acids to brighten and refine the skin
3. Sleeping Beauty Purifying Mousse - this is a pink clay mask which helps to draw impurities and refine pores. It is best used 2-3 times a week in place of your moisturiser.

Our products containing coconut oil and cocoa butter have been formulated with specific carrier oils. This ensures that the oil is absorbed well into the skin and does not sit on the skin barrier which can cause clogging of pores.The oil we specifically use is Camellia Seed Oil which comes from the tea plant. When used in isolation coconut oil and cocoa butter (amongst other oils) can definitely lead to pores clogging but when used in our products we can assure you that this is not an issue.

Our No.1 Belle Frais Cleansing Milk is wonderful for redness and rosea. The coconut milk, cucumber and zizyphus extracts are calming and soothing and reduce inflammatin. The formula is also free of fragrances, sulfates and any harsh essential oils which are what tend to aggravate redness. In addition to the Cleansing Milk I recommend our & Sleeping Beauty Purifying Mousse. The pink clay and aloe gel in this are wonderful for reducing redness as well.
