Why We Love It
Founder's Note
“It really is my base for anything in the morning and evening. It’s the first thing I use on my skin after it’s washed. The intention is to soothe, prep, and nourish with a boost of moisture. I can’t live without it!”

I wear the Base Face Milk under the Super Serum Face Tint and under a heavier moisturizer at night. I have dry sensitive skin and this face milk calms and moisturizes .

I’m at the age of really needing to care for my skin! Many products I’ve tried are irritating, and I welcome this beautiful product. No irritants, and leaves my skin refreshed.
- Marguerite R.Verified BuyerReviewingThe Base Face MilkI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars6/25/24Feels good
I use it under primer & foundation and it works well. I have mature skin so I do use a different moisturizer when no makeup, but this feels like a splash of milk & does leave skin feeling soft.
