BotaVita is an environment conscious Japanese skincare brand that creates silicone free, mineral oil free, paraben free, alcohol free skincare. The brand embodies the concept of gentle and effective skincare. I recently tried their popular cleansing butter and here are my thoughts
BotaVita Cleansing Butter is a soft balm cleansing butter with highly moisturizing Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter, and six white flower essences. The soft, butter-like melting texture, gently melts makeup while providing hydration.
The packaging is very minimalist a very basic flat white jar. No fancy design and no spatula . Overall I like the design. I expected the jar to be leak proof but for some odd reason the butter kept ooozing out from the sides in liquefied form. So that was a bit of a bummer. But then I don't blame the brand entirely. The weather was freaking 108F/ 43C and a lot of things were melting.
The product was in a semi molten form. Melted Butter ? Like I have said before the weather was hot so it was natural for the butter to melt. Even my lipsticks deformed because of the temperature. The thing which immediately brightened my mood was the scent beautiful heavenly scent if wild orchids. So rich and luxurious. The brand describes this as Delicate scent of Gardenia. Even after washing my face with water the scent lingered for some times. According to the brand there is no need to double cleanse. I did tested out this claim by wiping my face with micellar water and the cotton wipe was clean , no makeup residue. I personally do a double cleanse anyways just for my own satisfaction but you can skip.
This is safe for eyelash extension. I can't say much since I dont have any extensions on but the one thing that I can vouch for is that this doesnt irritate the eyes or dry out the skin. I couldn't remove korean water proof mascara with this but everything else just comes off easily without much effort. I didn't notice any new breakouts post usage. Currently it is chilling in my fridge but once the weather becomes colder I will be making this a part of my daily skincare routine
