Barrier Breakdown
A soap-free syndet cleansing system removes impurities while helping preserve the skin’s natural barrier.
Dehydration
Nutrient-rich botanical lipids help replenish moisture during cleansing, leaving skin soft and comfortable rather than stripped.
Reduced Epidermal Renewal
Papaya and pineapple enzymes provide gentle enzymatic exfoliation to help lift away dull surface cells and reveal smoother, brighter-looking skin.
Cleansing is the foundation of every effective skincare routine.
If the skin is not thoroughly cleansed, treatment products cannot perform at their full potential. Yet many cleansers remove more than makeup and sunscreen—they also strip away the lipids that help maintain a healthy skin barrier.
PASTÈSE™ was formulated as the preparation step of The Layland Method™.
Its soap-free syndet cleansing system transforms from a softly grainy cleansing pâte into a silky oil before emulsifying into a luxurious cleansing milk with water. This three-stage transformation dissolves makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup while respecting the skin barrier, creating the ideal foundation for every treatment that follows.
Every ingredient in PASTÈSE™ was selected because it contributes to a specific biological purpose and is supported by published scientific literature.
A Soap-Free Syndet Cleansing System gently removes sunscreen, makeup, excess oil, and environmental impurities without disrupting the skin’s natural barrier.
Donkey milk has been valued for skin care since antiquity and is famously associated with Cleopatra’s bathing rituals. Naturally rich in lactic acid, amino acids, minerals, and skin-conditioning proteins, it contains components that modern research suggests may help support the skin barrier and microbiome.
Papaya and pineapple enzymes provide gentle enzymatic exfoliation, helping loosen accumulated surface cells to reveal smoother, brighter-looking skin without relying on abrasive scrubs.
A Nutrient-Rich Lipid Network featuring meadowfoam seed oil, radish seed oil, shea butter, lecithin, and botanical lipids replenishes moisture while helping maintain skin comfort throughout cleansing.
Sandalwood essential oil, long prized in Ayurvedic traditions, contributes a warm, grounding aroma that transforms cleansing into a sensory ritual.
PASTÈSE™ is named after the French word pâte, reflecting its distinctive balm-like texture before it transforms into a cleansing milk.
The formula also draws inspiration from one of history’s most enduring beauty rituals. According to ancient accounts, Cleopatra bathed in donkey milk as part of her skincare routine. While she could not have known the science behind it, those baths exposed her skin to naturally occurring milk components that modern research now recognizes for their potential role in supporting the skin barrier and microbiome.
PASTÈSE™ brings together this ancient ritual with contemporary cleansing science, pairing donkey milk with soap-free surfactants, fruit enzymes, and nutrient-rich lipids to create a modern cleansing ritual that prepares the skin for everything that follows.
Most cleansers simply remove impurities.
PASTÈSE™ prepares the skin for treatment.
