Certified organic, cold-pressed Nilotica. That’s the only ingredient in this luxuriously rich balm-to-oil: the purest form of LXMI’s signature skin superfood. The whipped-effect formula melts instantly upon application, delivering essential fatty acids (+25% compared to traditional Shea), powerful antioxidants, soothing allantoin, and Vitamin A, E + K to hydrate, brighten, and protect skin—combating the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Use it as a deeply nourishing overnight mask, nutrient-dense moisturizer, as a healing salve for dry spots, hands, sunburns or scars, or throughout the day as needed. It is so safe you can eat it, making it great during pregnancy, for new parents and on newborn skin. 

What is it:

The Melt is 100% plant-derived, vegan, organic, cruelty-free, gluten-free, unscented, unrefined, social impact-sourced, noncomedogenic (meaning it won't clog your pores), and dermatologist approved. It works wonders.

The hybrid formula starts as a creamy balm, MELTS on contact with skin, and transforms into a luxurious oil. The Melt is made from cold-pressed Ugandan Nilotica nuts, wild-harvested along a remote stretch of the Nile River. Related to the shea nut, Nilotica has a softer texture and superior nutritional density. The region’s unique soil biome yields pure Nilotica with uncommonly high concentrations of nutrient-rich bioactive compounds.

Benefits:

Nilotica is naturally rich in:
* VITAMIN A (a precursor to retinol), which supports natural collagen production and promotes cellular turnover for brighter, smoother skin.
* VITAMIN E, which helps to reduce inflammation, keep skin clear, blemish-free, and deeply moisturized without irritating.
* VITAMIN K, which helps to reduce puffiness and dark circles, boosts skin elasticity, and promotes wound healing.
* ANTIOXIDANTS, especially in the form of Catechins, which is the same antioxidants as in green tea. Great for free-radical defenses to fight fine lines, UV damage, and discoloration.
* ALLANTOIN to calm irritation and reduce redness.
* 25% more ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS compared to regular Shea butter - to calibrate and restore a compromised skin barrier, gently smooth texture and reveal glowing, healthy skin.

Not just a tool. A magic wand.

Designed exclusively for LXMI, this double-ended copper wand adds a new level of luxury to your skincare routine. The black, flat end keeps your LXMI products fresh and contamination-free, while the round, copper end depuffs and revitalizes skin by stimulating circulation. 

While the cardiovascular system pumps blood through blood vessels, the lymphatic system, centered around the cervical lymph nodes, moves lymph fluid through muscle tissue, to aid the body in removing waste and toxins. Part of our immune system, it also scans against bacteria and viruses. Due to factors such as aging, lifestyle and overall health, this flow can become congested, leading to toxin and fluid build-up, skin puffiness, and a weakened immune system. 

Use the cooling copper ball tip to distribute cream across your skin and do a quick and relaxing lymphatic face massage to boost circulation and help strengthen the system to release tension, improve elasticity, reduce inflammation, and enhance natural glow. We especially love using the copper wand around our eyes, jawline and even sinuses on stuffy days.
