Melissa Day Cream

Dr Hauschka Melissa Day Cream is a light morning moisturiser for combination skin, with a fresh lemon balm scent and a matte finish that makes a lovely base for make-up. Melissa (lemon balm) extract leads, with daisy, nasturtium, witch hazel, anthyllis and carrot root, while tapioca starch keeps it matte and sunflower, coconut, jojoba and apricot kernel oils give the drier patches enough body. Warm a pea sized amount between the palms and press it into skin still damp from your toner.
