CANYON SUNSET
Oil Cleanser & Makeup Remover
Most cleansers strip your skin to get it clean. They wash away makeup, yes — but also the oils your skin actually needs, leaving it tight, reactive, and overcompensating by producing more oil.
Canyon Sunset works on a different principle. Jojoba oil, structurally identical to your skin's own sebum, dissolves makeup and impurities through like-dissolves-like chemistry — oil attracts oil, lifting everything off without disrupting what belongs there. Yucca root brings natural saponins that gently cleanse without harsh detergents.
Clean skin that doesn't feel like it just went through a car wash.

LIKE DISSOLVES LIKE
Oil cleansing isn't a trend — it's chemistry. Jojoba oil seeks out and dissolves the oil-based impurities sitting on your skin, lifting them away without touching the moisture underneath. No stripping.
YUCCA ROOT
A desert plant with natural saponins that have been used as a gentle cleanser for centuries by Indigenous Southwest communities. It does the cleansing work without the harshness — no sulfates and no synthetics.

SHORT LIST. BIG RESULTS.
JOJOBA OIL
Technically a wax ester, not an oil, which is exactly why it works so well. Its molecular structure is nearly identical to your skin's own sebum, making it the ideal cleanser for removing oil-based impurities without disrupting the moisture barrier underneath. Non-comedogenic, non-irritating.

YUCCA ROOT
A native desert plant used by Indigenous Southwest communities for centuries as a natural cleanser. The root contains saponins — plant-based compounds that create a gentle lather and lift impurities from skin without harsh detergents or synthetic surfactants.
