An Autumn Gift

Spend £60 and I'll add an Apricot & Geranium Cleansing Bar  (worth £21) to your order, on me.

Handmade with nourishing plant oils and beautifully scented with geranium, it creates a creamy lather that leaves skin feeling clean, soft and comfortable.

A little everyday luxury, just for you.

Automatically added at checkout, while stocks last.

Cleansing shouldn't leave your skin tight. Our Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter is a soft, buttery cleansing balm that melts in and lifts away make-up, SPF and the day, then wipes off with a muslin cloth wrung out in hand-hot water. Skin feels clean, soft and comfortable, not stripped.

"The only cleanser that hasn't dried out my skin." Jackie

It removes waterproof make-up thoroughly without stripping the skin, and you can use it day and/or night. Massage gently into dry skin, then wipe away.

We make it with carrot-infused sunflower oil, mango butter and St John's wort oil, and scent it with tiny amounts of pure essential oils.

It is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, dry and breakout prone skin.

It's handmade in Devon, and free from palm oil, silicones, SLS, artificial fragrances and colours. Not tested on animals.

Use the spatula to warm a small amount of Butter in your hands. Massage into dry skin, gently massaging your face and neck while breathing in the aromatherapy herbaceous scent. Pay special attention to any stubborn waterproof make up. Remove with a cloth wrung through with hand hot water. Simple, fast and effective!

Questions about the Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter

Both. It's a soft, buttery cleansing balm that melts as you warm a small amount in your hands.

No. It melts into the skin as you massage it, and you remove it with a muslin cloth wrung out in hand-hot water. Customers tell us their skin feels soft and comfortable afterwards.

Yes. Warm a small amount in your hands and massage it over dry skin, taking extra time over stubborn waterproof make-up. Then remove it with a muslin cloth wrung out in hand-hot water.

It's made for dry skin, and customers with sensitive and mature skin use it too. It's suitable for all skin types and is free from palm oil, silicones, SLS and artificial fragrances and colours.

It's scented with pure essential oils, so if your skin is very reactive, we recommend you carry out a patch test first.

And if it isn't right for you, our 30 Day Happiness Guarantee has you covered.

Warm a small amount in your hands and massage it over dry skin on your face and neck. Then remove it with a muslin cloth wrung out in hand-hot water.

Both. The Cleansing Butter is available on its own in 15ml, 50ml and 100ml.

Moisturising cleanser.

This cleanser is soothing and moisturising, it doesn’t strip your skin leaving feeling dry. A small amount goes a long way. I love how clean it makes skin feel and effortlessly removes make up and sunscreen.

Beautiful soft and plump skin

After years of using the usual facial toners and cleansers you buy instore, I thought I'd give this natural product a go. I only applied a small amount as it did spread easily, the fresh smell of the carrot and mango is refreshing, I left it on for 1min then removed, it left my skin feeling beautifully soft and plump, and the scent remained. I highly recommend this beautiful product 😍 💜

I am looking forward every morning to cleansing my face with yet another beautiful product. Uplifting in the morning and calming at night. It really forces me to slow down, gently massaging my face, enjoying the smell, feeling the balm working it's magic on my skin. I feel my skin is really cleansed, soft and ready to receive and absorb the oil and radiance cream.

Very average for the expensive price tag

Smells earthy (which I like, but I know some don't), 15ml for £18 is excessive even for organic products. I hoped that a little would go a long way, but it doesn't, so not good value for money.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts — I appreciate it.

This is our smallest size and also the most expensive in terms of cost per ml. It reflects the quality of the ingredients we use and the way the balm is made. Every batch is hand-blended in small quantities, and key ingredients like St John’s Wort Oil are macerated by hand over several weeks here in the studio.

It’s a very concentrated formula, created for dry, menopausal and sensitive skin — and while many customers find a tiny amount goes a long way, I completely understand that everyone’s experience (and preference) is different.

We do also have larger sizes available, which offer much better value, but I realise this may still not be the right fit for everyone.

I’m grateful for your feedback, and I’m glad you enjoyed the earthy scent. (The Carrot Seed, Lavender and Rosemary essential oils) We focus on exceptional quality — the balm has been recognised this year with 3 Beauty Shortlist awards, Best Cleanser Dry Skin, Best Cleanser 50+ and Best Cleansing Butter and we’re very proud of the results our customers experience.

Everyone’s skin — and budget — is unique, and I appreciate you giving it a try.

Warm wishes,
Olga x

Angela
Good product

Gentle yet effective. Skin doesn’t feel tight. One thought it stains the muslin cloth , guess that’s the carrot in it - am I using too much if this happens

That's great to hear Angela - skin that feels right post cleansing is not a good sign. Regarding staining the muslin cloth, the plant oils and butters I use are organic and unrefined - so darker yellow/organge - for exmaple the Carrot oil, calendula c02 and can stain - but which makes for a Butter that the skin loves, instead of a Butter which is white but made with mineral oil or refined oils etc. I recommend a pack of cloths so you can use a clean one for each cleanse and bung them all in the laundry together on a hot wash which makes the process easier. The other thing you can do is to use a cotton type flannel cloth which you can get in many colours - see which your skin likes the most, for me I prefer the slightly rough feel of a muslin cloth. I hope that helps :) Olga

Kate
Melts into the skin

I wanted to find a natural balm cleanser that I could wipe off for my irritable skin, and this seems to be it! My face feels cleansed but not dry after use. One question is how much the cleanser should be rubbed/massaged into the skin before wiping it off with the muslin cloth?

That's great to hear Katherine - I'm glad to hear that it's working well for your irritable skin and leaving your face feeling cleansed without being dry. To answer your question, I recommend gently massaging the cleanser into your skin for about at least 10-15 seconds before wiping it off with the muslin cloth. This will allow the product to fully melt into your skin and effectively remove any make-up residue from the day. For most of us, we are in a rush an tired at the end of the day, but if you have time , spending even a little longer gently massaging the Butter into the face, acts like a mini treatment and your skin with thank you for a little bit of extra care - but this is optional depending if you have a few extra moments. Message me if you need any more advice! Olga x

Gentle for sensitive skin

Ordered a trial size of the cleansing balm and after 3 days my skin feels lovely and smooth. Goes on like a dream and there’s no tightness after removing with my muslin cloth. I don’t usually tolerate products with essential oils but so far so good.

Thank you for sharing your experience Tracy! Great to hear the Cleansing Butter has left your skin feeling smooth and comfortable — and that it’s been gentle enough for your sensitive skin. It's out little unsung hero!

Andrea
Nice but not for me this one

Lovely cleansing balm ,very strong smell .it does feel nice on the skin not sure I would buy it again.

Hi Andrea, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review.

I completely understand that scent is such a personal thing – what one person loves, another might not! We use essential oils in our Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter not just for their beautiful, natural aromas, but also for their therapeutic benefits. This particular balm has a fresh, herbaceous scent that comes from the blend of plant-based ingredients, and while many of our customers love its clean, uplifting aroma, we know it’s not for everyone.

I’m really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the texture and how it felt on your skin, even if this one wasn’t quite the right fit for you. If you’d like any help finding a better match from our range, I’d be more than happy to help.

A pot of joy

This cleanser makes me smile every time I open the pot! I just love the wonderful zesty colour and the whole routine of letting the butter melt on my fingers before applying it to my face. This is the best product for my skin, it doesn't irritate, it leaves a warm glow to my skin and frankly I couldn't be without it.

Thank you for your lovely review! We are thrilled to hear that our Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter brings a smile and adds a warm glow to your skin. We firmly believe that you don't need a whole cupboard of mediocre produts but rather a handful of really good skincare products designed to work with your skin. Olga x

Great cleanser…

What a little cracker, most cleansers leave my skin dry and taut, not this one! What a change, soft, hydrated skin and that’s just after cleansing!

That's what we like to hear - soft and hydrated! 🙂

More Personal Skincare

I created The Rose Tree because I know how frustrating it is when skin becomes drier, more sensitive and harder to please than it used to be.

Too much beauty advice is 'anti-ageing' and 'buy more'.

So I make things differently — small-batch, award-winning skincare designed to comfort, nourish and support dry, sensitive skin without overwhelm. Less really is more.

Every jar of our Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter is handmade in small batches in Devon, and backed by our 30 Day Happiness Guarantee.
