Naturally rich in:
Pure Nilotica Melt
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.
Social impact skincare:
Through our partnerships with fair-trade women’s cooperatives, your purchase gives dignified work to marginalized East African women, who receive more than 3x the living wages and are empowered to lift themselves and their families out of poverty. Furthermore, your purchase reduces local deforestation and helps combat climate change.
We recently switched our packaging from a jar to a tube. Why? The tube contains more product, has a smaller carbon footprint (lighter packaging takes less fuel to ship), and is more travel- and gym-friendly.
To reduce environmental waste, we are moving away from printed product brochures. For the digital product brochure for The Melt, please click here.
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.

"Give Work" by Leila Janah
“An audacious, inspiring, and practical book about how to drive meaningful change. Leila shows how it’s possible to build a successful business that lifts people out of poverty—not by giving them money but by giving them work. It’s required reading for anyone who’s passionate about solving real problems.”
—Adam Grant, author of Give and Take and Originals; coauthor (with Sheryl Sandberg) of Option B
Give Work by LXMI and Samasource's late founder Leila Janah describes how to use work, rather than aid, to address poverty in poor parts of Africa, Asia, and the United States.
Despite trillions of dollars in aid, 2.8 billion people worldwide still struggle in abject poverty. Yet the world’s richest countries continue to send money—mostly to governments—targeting the symptoms, rather than the root causes of poverty. We need a better solution.
Janah has tested various Give Work business models in all corners of the world. She shares poignant stories of people who have benefited from Samasource’s work, where and why it hasn’t worked, and offers a blueprint to fight poverty with an evidence-based, economically sustainable model.
This book shares lessons for social entrepreneurs and others looking to make a difference in their careers with practical, real-world examples.

The Copper Wand
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.
