Good things can be so simple – when you know how they work. That applies equally to current food trends such as clean eating and to our beauty, particularly when it comes to cleansing.
That is why Babor’s research team was guided by a simple but effective principle when developing the Cleansing line: a gentle action with the added bonus of an anti-pollution effect.
This outcome is possible thanks to the innovative Anti-OX Complex of lemon bioflavonoids and aloe vera.
Extracts of broccoli also stimulate the production of the skin’s own detoxifying enzymes, while specially processed apple water triggers an additional turbo effect.
Babor uses flash distillation to obtain Pyrus malus (apple) fruit water, which absorbs the valuable trace elements and minerals contained in apples and also enables the skin to form tiny channels to absorb active ingredients.
THE ORIGINAL
Besides HY-ÖL, the legendary bi-phase cleansing oil, the Babor Cleansing range includes super-cleansing phytoactives.
More than 60 years ago, Dr Michael Babor knew that oil beautifies the skin and cleanses it deep down. The hydrophilic oil, HY-ÖL, is applied to dry skin (do not moisten beforehand), to remove oil-soluble particles. Quillaja saponaria bark extract also acts like a dirt magnet.
Mixed with water and a phytoactive, the oil becomes a milky emulsion, which also removes water-soluble dirt, and at the same time moisturises and conditions the skin.
The Phytoactives come in Sensitive (pictured), Hydro Base (for dry skin), Combination and Reactivating.
