Première Cleansing Oil

The first step is the most important.

Première Cleansing Oil is a slow, intentional oil cleanser designed to dissolve makeup, mineral sunscreen, excess sebum, and daily buildup—without stripping the skin barrier.

Before foaming cleansers and surfactants, there was oil. Oil dissolves oil. It lifts what does not belong while preserving what does.

This plant-based cleansing oil is formulated for modern skin exposed to city air, long days, and layered skincare. It cleans thoroughly while leaving skin soft, balanced, and prepared for nourishment.

No foam. No emulsifiers. No fillers.
Just purposeful plant oils chosen for how they behave on the skin.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Dissolves makeup and mineral sunscreen effortlessly

  • Gently removes excess oil without disrupting the barrier

  • Leaves skin soft, never tight or squeaky

  • Supports a healthy-looking glow

  • Prepares skin for serum, balm, or face oil

  • Suitable for all skin types, including dry and sensitive skin

  • Doubles as a luxurious facial massage oil


How to Use

Dispense a quarter-sized amount into dry palms.
Massage intentionally onto dry skin, allowing the oil to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and buildup. Add a touch of warm water to soften. Remove with a warm, damp cloth.

Skin is left clean, soft, and undisturbed—ready for your serum, balm, or face oil.

For heavy makeup or long-wear sunscreen, repeat for a true double cleanse.


Première Cleansing Oil is a gentle, plant-based oil cleanser designed to dissolve makeup, mineral sunscreen, excess sebum, and daily buildup without stripping or disrupting the skin barrier.

Unlike traditional foaming cleansers that rely on surfactants, this non-foaming cleansing oil works through affinity—oil dissolves oil. It lifts what does not belong while preserving the skin’s natural moisture and protective lipids.

Designed to nourish

What Makes Summer Solace Tallow Different?

What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to quality, transparency, and ecological care. We use only kidney suet from pasture-raised Northern California cattle, sourced from Stemple Creek Ranch. This suet tallow is rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K and closely mirrors the structure of human skin, making it deeply nourishing and naturally supportive of skin health.

We never use seed oils, synthetic fragrances, or palm oil. Instead, our formulas rely on nutrient-rich animal fats, organic botanicals, and pure essential oils that offer lasting nourishment without compromise.
