Aurora FAQ

How do I use Aurora as a cleanser?

To remove makeup and SPF:
Massage a chickpea-sized amount onto dry skin. Add warm water to emulsify, and use a dampened washcloth to remove makeup. Can be used to safely remove waterproof eye makeup, even on sensitive eys. Rinse thoroughly. Skin will feel dewy, not stripped.

As a cleansing milk:
As a "second cleanse" or "skin cleanse" (ie. step 2 of the double cleansing method), you can apply a small amount of Aurora to wet skin, or emulsify a chickpea sized dab of Aurora in the palm on your hand with a few drops of warm water. The balm will transform into a milky cream cleanser.

How do I use Aurora as a leave-on product?

Simple! Aurora can replace your regular moisturizer.

On clean, preferably damp skin, massage on a small amount of Aurora, and increase as needed. A little goes a long way! Can be applied to face, body, hands, etc.

As a moisture mask, layer a thicker layer over a hydration serum (like our Equinox), and leave on as desired.

Can be used day or night.

Is Aurora right for me?

Everyone's skin is so unique, but Aurora has been a customer favourite since 2011, is often repurchased multiple times, and has been used by all skin types of all ages, in different climates, including sensitive and acne-prone.

Those with balanced to dry skin will love it best, as well as during colder and drier seasons.

For very sensitive skin, I'd recommend the unscented version.

Please check the full ingredients list below to check for allergies, etc.

Aurora Ingredient Spotlight

Spotlight

Mango (Mangifera indica) Seed Butter

A rich, emollient butter that softens and protects without clogging pores. High in oleic and stearic acids, it restores flexibility to dry, tight skin. Absorbs more readily than you'd expect from a butter this nourishing.

spotlight

Seabuckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides) Oil

One of the only plant sources of omega-7, a fatty acid that supports skin regeneration and mucosal tissue health. Loaded with carotenoids, tocopherols, and phytosterols. Especially effective for skin recovering from damage or dealing with persistent dryness.

spotlight

Bisabolol

Ceramides make up roughly 50% of your skin's barrier. Replenishing them topically fills in the gaps that environmental stress, aging, and over-exfoliation create. The result is skin that holds onto moisture and resists irritation far more effectively.
