RITUEL DE MAISON Biodynamic® Restorative Cleansing Oil

A classic cleansing oil for purists. Formulated without surfactants or emulsifiers to bring the most out of our nourishing Biodynamic ingredients. Smoothly melts and lifts daily buildup, stubborn makeup, and environmental impurities from the skin, without leaving it dry or stripped.
50ml

The Story

The Story

This à la francaise multi-action facial cleansing oil effortlessly melts and lifts ‘the day away’, simultaneously bestowing powerfully restorative and soothing antioxidant compounds, leaving the skin cleansed, nourished, and decadently supple.

Polar oils, nature’s emulsifiers, contain higher levels of saponins than non-polar oils and have a natural affinity for water. Saponins are bio-organic compounds that naturally sud when exposed to water. Plants with saponins have been used for cleansing, without stripping the skin, for centuries. Whilst our polar oils are cleansing the skin, our restorative biodynamic oils deliver essential phytonutrients for clean, healthy and nourished skin.

The Rituel is a grounding potion to ease you into the day’s moments at rise or rest. Evocative of an autumnal walk in the woods, filled with comforting notes of damp earth, spice and herbaceous roots.

How to use

Step 1 Warm 3 - 5 pumps in your palms and gently massage onto dry skin for at least 2 minutes to encourage a deeper cleansing experience.

Step 2 Use circular, outward movements, encouraging natural lymphatic flow in the face and neck.

Step 3 Using a clean, warm and damp cloth, sweep away with light upward and outward strokes and finish with a splash of cool water (or use your preferred secondary cleanser).

Step 4 Gently “press” the oil into the skin.

Step 5 Pat the face dry and follow with your favorite hydrosol and the Extrait de Maison Rejuvenating Face Oil.

How it’s made

SUSTAINABILITY

Maison/Made partnered with the premier carbon accounting firm, Carbon Calories, to calculate how our products fit into your Daily Carbon Quota, to give you the power of knowing how “carbon efficient” our products are. This is next-level transparency.

The Carbon Statements above are reviewed in meticulous detail from seed to bottle - from how much fuel the tractor uses, to the energy that is used to store the products, to the materials (ie glass, plastic, cardboard, etc) that make up the packaging, and the carbon these elements consumed in their manufacturing. Everything is analyzed by Carbon Calories with a fine-toothed comb to ensure that the Carbon Statement is accurate.

This work gives you an idea how much of your carbon footprint you’re using with each spritz of our hydrosols. We hope that many many more companies decide to join us, and help make the future a better place for us all to inhabit.

Biodynamic agriculture is the traditional approach to farming that goes beyond organic to grow in the most sustainable, symbiotic manner possible. Its techniques work in harmony with Nature instead of exploiting it. Doing so produces the most nutrient dense, vibrant plants that are considered the highest quality in the world.

We chose to grow our own plants biodynamically, use Biodynamic ingredients, and acquire the certification because we believe the history of Biodynamics should also be our future.

Our herb garden is focused on plants that have remarkable properties specific to skincare. Biodynamics shows us that those plants that nourish the skin, also happen to nourish the soil. There is a certain symbiotic harmony here: vitality nurturing vitality.

Following the Biodynamic standards of agriculture has enabled us to grow significantly from our first little patch of calendula, despite significant weather-related challenges, for which we are grateful, as it strengthened our resolve and required us to lean significantly on our familial gardening secrets, cultivated over centuries of tending to our land.

For each product in the Maison Collection we develop a customized extraction blend employing our proprietary Complexe du Jardin™ method. This specific method meticulously saturates an oil with the nourishing medicinal properties of the plants we grow in our jardin following the Biodynamic® principles. As we grow each plant exclusively for each product, each extract is a targeted synergy of botanicals that addresses the desired actions of the product. This is why there are different herbs in our Extrait de Maison than in our Rituel de Maison.
