How to use

Apply. Massage. Rinse. It's that simple.

01

Apply

Apply a small amount of cleansing milk to dry or damp skin. Half a teaspoon is sufficient for the entire face.

02 

Massaging

Gently massage in with upward, circular motions. The milky texture dissolves residue and sebum without scrubbing or pulling.

03

Rinse

Rinse with lukewarm water or wipe off with a damp cotton pad. No tightness. No residue. Just clean, nourished-feeling skin.

A cleansing milk is not a regular cleanser. 
And that's precisely the point.

Most cleansers — gels, foams, micellar waters — clean efficiently but also strip away the natural oils the skin needs. After washing, the skin feels tight, dry, or irritated. That's not a clean feeling. That's a disrupted skin barrier. Gentle Cleanse works differently — based on nourishing oils that dissolve impurities without taking away anything that belongs.

The nourishing oils bind to and dissolve sebum, make-up, and residue without scrubbing or tugging.

Shea butter and sunflower oil nourish the skin during cleansing – not afterwards.

After rinsing, the skin feels soft and comfortable, not tight or dry.

Oil phase

dissolves

Shea butter, sunflower oil, and argan oil bind to makeup, sebum, and daily impurities. They dissolve them without friction or pulling — the skin barrier remains intact.

↓ rinse with lukewarm water ↓

Water phase

softens

Cornflower extract and organic ingredients soothe the skin after cleansing. No residue. No tightness. Just clean, nourished-feeling skin — ready for the next step.

What's in it — and why

The ingredients that do the real work.

99% of the ingredients in Gentle Cleanse are from natural sources. These are the four most important.

shea butter

Nourishes and protects the skin barrier after every cleanse. COSMOS Organic certified. Particularly effective for dry and sensitive skin.

organic sunflower oil

Light and fast-absorbing. Hydrates the skin while cleansing without leaving a greasy film.

argan oil

Rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids. Supports skin elasticity and protects against daily environmental stress.

cornflower extract

Calms redness and irritation after cleansing. Especially suitable for reactive skin that quickly reddens after contact with other cleansers.

Complete the ritual

Gentle Cleanse is step 02. The Essential Skin Ritual completes it.

Gentle Cleanse is the second step in the Essential Skin Ritual — a complete system of four products for morning and evening. Each product is designed to work perfectly with the next step.

Everything you need to know
before you start.

Everything you need to know before you start.

Can I use Gentle Cleanse daily?

Yes. The formula has been specifically developed for daily use — morning and evening. The gentle, oil-based formula cleanses without disrupting the skin barrier, even with frequent use.

Should I rinse or is wiping enough?

Both work. Rinsing with lukewarm water provides a fresher finish. Wiping with a damp cotton pad is just as effective and gentler on the skin. Choose what best fits your routine.

Is this suitable for oily or combination skin?

Gentle Cleanse is primarily developed for dry and sensitive skin. For oily or combination skin, the Oil-Free Face Gel from the Men's Daily Ritual or the Back to Skin Make-up Remover is a better first step. Gentle Cleanse also works as a second cleansing step for combination skin.

Is the cleansing milk fragrance-free?

The formula contains no added perfumes. A light, herbal scent may be present due to the natural botanical ingredients — this is not a synthetic fragrance.

What does the 30-day guarantee entail?

If you have used the ritual for 30 days and are not satisfied with your experience, you can contact us. Show that you have genuinely used the product—a photo of the remaining product is sufficient—and we will refund you in full.

How long does delivery take?

Orders within Belgium and the Netherlands are usually delivered free of charge within 1 to 4 working days. We also ship throughout Europe, where the delivery time and shipping costs may vary depending on the destination.

The Nordhavn

A daily oasis.
Built from the ground up.

TheNordhavn was founded on a simple belief: a skincare routine should feel like a moment of calm in a busy day, not a complicated obligation. The name comes from the Scandinavian word for harbor – a place of quiet, safety, and arrival.

 

That's exactly what we wanted to create. Not a shelf full of products, but a small, carefully curated collection that works – and that perfectly complements each other.
