Bella & Bear Botanicals — Melt Away Pre-Cleanse / 1 oz. Take off the day without taking away your skin’s comfort. Melt Away Pre-Cleanse dissolves sunscreen, long-wear makeup, and daily buildup in seconds while leaving skin cushioned, calm, and ready for what comes next. The silky oil transforms with water into a feather-light milk that rinses clean—no film, no tightness—so your complexion feels soft, balanced, and radiant from the very first step.
Packaged in a premium, recyclable glass bottle with a hygienic pump, this travel-friendly 1 oz. size is perfect for on-the-go routines and discovery kits. Vegan, cruelty-free, and made without parabens or sulfates, Melt Away is the retail cleansing oil clients actually finish—and then repurchase—because it feels luxurious, works quickly, and helps everything after it perform better.
Why It Belongs in Every Daily Routine
Cleansing oil is the easiest upgrade for instantly more comfortable, clearer-looking skin. Melt Away glides over dry skin to loosen stubborn pigments and SPF, then turns milky on contact with water to sweep away residue. The result is thorough cleansing that respects your moisture barrier. Skin is left smooth and refreshed—not squeaky—so serums and moisturizers absorb more evenly and makeup sits better. Even sensitive and combination skin types can enjoy a deep, gentle clean without the sting, rubbing, or strip of harsh removers.
What It Does for Skin
From the first massage, the formula gets to work: lightweight grape seed oil lifts oil-soluble debris, sunflower and pumpkin seed oils comfort and help clarify the look of congested areas, and avocado and rice bran oils leave a conditioned, luminous finish after rinse. Used nightly, you’ll notice fewer dry patches, less makeup residue on towels, a more supple feel after cleansing, and an overall fresher, brighter complexion. It’s the kind of simple habit that quietly solves multiple frustrations at once—without adding time.
How the Oil-to-Milk Transformation Works
Oil attracts oil. That’s why Melt Away binds to sebum, sunscreen, and long-wear pigments so effectively. The moment you add water, a high-performance emulsifier turns the oil into a delicate micro-emulsion that lifts away debris and rinses completely. Because the cleanse is thorough yet non-stripping, your moisture barrier stays supported, and skin feels clean, soft, and breathable—never waxy or coated. It’s science and sensorial care in one satisfying step.
Ingredient Highlights
Each carefully chosen oil brings its own skin-loving benefit, creating a cleanser and softening conditioner in a single step:
- Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil: Lightweight, non-comedogenic base that dissolves pigments and mineral SPF without heaviness.
- Helianthus Annuus (Organic Sunflower) Seed Oil: Naturally rich in Vitamin E to support a soft, resilient feel post-rinse.
- Cucurbita Pepo (Pumpkin) Seed Oil: A nutrient-dense oil with zinc and omega fatty acids that helps clarify the appearance of congested areas.
- Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil: Plush comfort from vitamins A, D, and E to soothe and smooth after a long day.
- Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Oil: Squalene and fatty acids deliver a silky-smooth luminosity once the milk rinses away.
- Di-PPG-2 Myreth-10 Adipate: The modern emulsifier behind the quick, residue-free rinse.
Good to know: Vegan, cruelty-free, and made without parabens or sulfates. Produced in small batches in the USA and housed in glass to help protect formula freshness.
Who It’s For
If any of these sound familiar, Melt Away will be your new favorite first step:
- You wear SPF and/or long-wear or waterproof makeup most days.
- Your skin feels tight after foaming cleansers or wipes.
- Makeup smears during removal or leaves residue on towels.
- You want a one-minute ritual that makes the rest of your routine work better.
- You need a reliable travel cleanser that won’t leak or leave a film.
How to Use at Home (PM First Cleanse)
- Begin on dry skin with dry hands. Dispense 1–2 pumps into your palm.
- Massage over face (and lips/eyes if desired) for 30–60 seconds, concentrating on areas with heavier makeup or SPF.
- Add a splash of lukewarm water to emulsify—the oil turns into a light, milky texture.
- Rinse thoroughly. Follow with your favorite gel or cream cleanser to complete a double cleanse, then apply serum and moisturizer.
Tips: For waterproof formulas, hold a small amount over lashes for a few seconds before massaging. If needed, repeat a quick emulsify-and-rinse for extra-stubborn areas.
