Himalaya Deep Cleansing Milk

Himalaya Deep Cleansing Milk is a botanical-based facial cleanser formulated to provide a gentle yet thorough cleansing experience. Designed for daily use, it effectively removes makeup, surface dirt, and environmental pollutants while maintaining the skin's natural moisture balance.

This product stands out for its non-greasy, non-comedogenic formulation, making it suitable for normal to dry, combination, and even sensitive skin types. Its lightweight texture ensures easy absorption without leaving a residue.

As a foundational component of any comprehensive skincare routine, cleansing milk plays a crucial role in preparing the skin for serums, moisturizers, and treatments by eliminating pore-clogging impurities without stripping essential oils.

• Aloe Vera: Known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and hydrating properties, Aloe Vera calms irritated skin and supports moisture retention.
• Indian Madder (Manjishtha): A powerful detoxifying herb traditionally used in Ayurvedic formulations, Indian Madder helps purify the skin and improve overall tone and texture.
• Lemon: With its natural astringent and antibacterial qualities, Lemon aids in controlling excess sebum and brightening the skin.
• Other Herbal Components: Enriched with additional plant extracts that collectively cleanse, nourish, and refresh the skin without causing irritation.

The cleansing milk works through an emulsification process that binds with oil-based impurities, facilitating their removal from the skin's surface. It gently dislodges makeup particles, pollutants, and sebum without disrupting the lipid barrier.

Its formulation supports effective cleansing while delivering essential hydration. The botanical actives condition the skin, leaving it soft, balanced, and primed for subsequent skincare steps.

Additionally, the non-comedogenic nature of the product ensures that pores remain unclogged, minimizing the risk of breakouts. Its mild exfoliating action aids in cellular turnover without the abrasiveness of physical scrubs.

• Daily Facial Cleanser: Ideal for twice-daily use to remove accumulated impurities and maintain clear skin.
• Waterproof Makeup Remover: Effectively breaks down stubborn cosmetic products without excessive rubbing or irritation.
• Pre-treatment Cleanser: Used before applying masks, serums, or medicated creams to maximize product absorption.
• Off-label Body Use: Applied to sensitive or dry body areas where soap may be too harsh, such as the neck or upper back.

Frequency: Recommended for use twice daily morning and night.

Application Quantity: A small coin-sized amount is generally sufficient for one application.

Usage Instructions:

1. Apply the cleansing milk directly onto dry skin using clean fingertips or a cotton pad.
2. Massage in circular motions to dissolve impurities and makeup.
3. Wipe off with a clean cotton pad or rinse with lukewarm water if desired.
4. Follow with a toner and moisturizer suited to your skin type.

Application Tools: Can be used with or without cotton pads based on preference and makeup load.

• Mild Tingling or Burning: Occasionally experienced during the first few uses, particularly on sensitive or compromised skin barriers.
• Redness: Temporary flushing may occur, especially in individuals with rosacea-prone skin.
• Dryness: Overuse may lead to a tight sensation due to excess removal of skin oils.

• Allergic Contact Dermatitis: May present as swelling, itching, or blisters if a user is allergic to any of the plant extracts.
• Rash or Persistent Irritation: Occurs in rare cases and typically subsides after discontinuation.
• Botanical Reaction: Some herbal compounds can trigger delayed sensitivity reactions in certain individuals.

• Do not apply to open wounds, broken skin, or areas with active acne lesions.
• Keep out of contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Rinse thoroughly if contact occurs.
• Cease usage immediately if prolonged irritation, discomfort, or adverse symptoms develop.

• Allergic Sensitivity: Individuals with known allergies to Aloe Vera, citrus oils, or herbal compounds should avoid use.
• Dermatologic Conditions: Not recommended during active eczema, rosacea flare-ups, or fungal infections.
• Post-Procedural Skin: Avoid usage after chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapy until the skin has fully recovered.

Elderly Individuals: Aging skin tends to be thinner and more susceptible to transepidermal water loss and irritation. When using Himalaya Deep Cleansing Milk on elderly individuals, it is crucial to apply the product gently using light, circular motions. Avoid excessive rubbing, and opt for a soft cloth or cotton pad during removal to prevent microtears.

Pregnant and Nursing Women: While the botanical formulation of this product is generally well-tolerated, it is important to assess the ingredient list for essential oils or herbal extracts that may pose mild sensitization risks. Consulting a healthcare professional before use is advisable during pregnancy and lactation, especially when applying to areas near the chest or abdomen.

Children: For pediatric use, Himalaya Deep Cleansing Milk should be applied with caution. It is best suited for children above the age of 7, and even then, under adult supervision. The product may be diluted slightly with water or a bland emollient to reduce concentration and ensure mildness on delicate skin.

Compatibility: The product integrates well with most skincare regimens and can be layered safely with hydrating serums, emollient moisturizers, and broad-spectrum sunscreens. It acts as a preparatory cleanser that enhances absorption of subsequent skincare layers.

Interaction with Active Ingredients: Exercise caution when combining with retinoids, alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), as simultaneous use may cause overstimulation or dryness. Allow the skin to rest between applications or alternate products by day or week to reduce cumulative irritation.

Recommended Gap: A waiting period of at least 10-15 minutes is advised between the use of this cleansing milk and any potent prescription-based topical treatment to ensure the skin's pH remains stable and to minimize ingredient interaction risks.

• Patch Testing: For first-time users, a patch test should be conducted on the inner forearm or behind the ear. Wait 24 hours to observe any hypersensitivity reactions before full-face application.
• Avoiding Overuse: Over-cleansing, especially more than twice a day, can compromise the skin barrier and lead to dryness, flaking, or rebound oiliness. Use only as directed based on skin type and environmental exposure.
• Post-Use Hydration: It is essential to follow up with a hydrating toner or moisturizer immediately after cleansing to seal in moisture and support the skin's protective layer.

Storage Conditions: Keep the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Excessive heat or humidity can degrade the herbal extracts and affect product integrity.

Protection Measures: Store the bottle upright with the cap securely closed to prevent contamination or oxidation. Do not refrigerate unless explicitly instructed by the manufacturer.

Shelf Life: The typical shelf life is 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture. Discontinue use if the product exhibits changes in texture, color, or smell, which may indicate spoilage or bacterial growth.

• Excessive Application: Using the product in high frequency or quantity may lead to dermal irritation, dryness, or barrier disruption. In such cases, reduce usage and apply a skin barrier-repairing cream.
• Ingestion: While the ingredients are plant-derived, the product is not meant for internal use. If accidentally ingested, rinse the mouth thoroughly and drink water. Avoid inducing vomiting unless directed by a medical professional.
• When to Seek Help: Contact a healthcare provider or poison control center immediately if symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, or persistent irritation develop after ingestion or overuse.

• Safe Disposal: Do not pour leftover product down the drain. Instead, dispose of unused or expired product in accordance with local pharmaceutical or cosmetic waste guidelines.
• Hygienic Practices: Always wash hands before and after use. Avoid direct contact between the bottle opening and fingers or cotton pads to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
• Contamination Prevention: Keep the bottle tightly closed after each use. Do not share the product to avoid microbial transfer and maintain product efficacy.
