Packaging
Dark glass and aluminum.
Crème du Nil comes in a 50ml recyclable dark violet glass jar that protects the formula from oxidation. The Pure Nilotica Melt comes in a 50ml tube made from 100% recycled aluminum, which is infinitely recyclable and keeps damaging light out.
Subscriptions include a complimentary LXMI Copper Wand with the first order; one-time orders can add one at checkout.
What is the metal knob accessory with the Crème du Nil?
The copper-tipped applicator has two sides: one for scooping out the product (black, flat end) so you can distribute the right amount of product every time. The copper ball tip is for distributing the product across your face and décolletage, you'll find it provides a cooling and refreshing effect that stimulates the skin as you massage. We'd recommend specifically using it in the undereye area, to help reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness!
Is LXMI cruelty free?
Absolutely! None of our products (nor our ingredients) are tested on animals and our ingredients are all vegan.
The texture of the Melt feels pretty rich, will it clog my pores?
Even though it might feel rich, Nilotica is related to shea butter and is naturally anti-bacterial and non-comedogenic (meaning it won't clog pores). It is actually balancing and can help balance and clear up blemish-prone skin. Hope this helps! Thank you for your question.
What is the Pure Nilotica Melt?
A deeply nourishing overnight treatment to hydrate dry, damaged skin and smooth visible imperfections with 100 percent organic Nilotica Reserve™ from the Nile Valley.
The ultra-hydrating facial balm the Melt is 100% organic, cold-pressed Nilotica. The buttery formula melts instantly upon application, delivering fatty acids, allantoin, and vitamin A, E & K to hydrate, brighten, and protect skin—even reversing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
LXMI sources Nilotica from the pristine Nile River Valley in Uganda, where local women are known to have glowing skin despite the dehydrating climate. The rich, alluvial soil of this region lend a unique terroir to our key ingredient (Nilotica), earning it the distinction of Nilotica Reserve™.
Is the squalane in the Crème du Nil animal or plant derived?
Plant (olive) derived! Creme du Nil is a vegan formulation, like the rest of the line.
Does the Crème du Nil clog pores?
The Crème du Nil is formulated to be non-comedogenic (which is skincare lingo for a product that does not cause blocked pores). We added Hibiscus to further exfoliate and refine your pores, without irritating your skin.
What are the Melt and Crème du Nil formulated without?
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates
- Gluten
- Oils
- Parabens
- Petrochemicals
- Triclosan
- Sulfates
- Synthetic Fragrances
- Synthetic Dyes
We developed the formula with no artificial fragrance, sulfates, parabens, and other allergens specifically for people who have issues with most cosmetic formulas.
How come the Melt is so popular among pregnant women and moms?
Pure Nilotica Melt is one of the safest skincare treatments to use during pregnancy and works great for moms. It's even so clean you can eat it, and we definitely recommend our delicious chocolate truffle recipe that includes raw Nilotica!
Massage the Melt onto your belly to help keep skin elastic during pregnancy, as a nipple cream for nursing mothers, or onto sensitive newborn skin to help with rashes and keep skin nourished.
