Replenishing fats for sensitized skin in need of SOS

Sapienic is formulated by industry experts to honour the barrier, sebum and biome. Because Sapienic doesn’t believe in cleansers [which can cause sebum stripping], this product is formulated specifically to remove the day. Not just makeup, but SPF too. It has a PH of 5.3 while gently exfoliating through Kaolin and some Lactic Acid. Sans foaming agents.

Formulated for sensitive skin. Biome loving skincare.

Additional badges: 80% of the total ingredients are from organic farming as certified by ECOCERT.
