The first of its kind, Angel Milk is a tallow and hydrosol based refreshing and nourishing serum/lotion hybrid with a focus on barrier-supporting ingredients like 3% vitamin B3 and centella.

Inspired by the historical European beauty tonic, Eau D'Ange, this light moistruizer is centred around rose, myrtle, and neroli hydrosols coupled with nutrient rich organic grass-fed tallow and nilotica shea.

Deeply hydrating, this serum enhances your natural glow and radiance, with help from mineral rich pearl powder, energy-amplifyig laminar mica and flower essences.

30 ml/25 g

Angel Milk is a light lotion that quenches thirsty skin, providing a lit-from-within glow without being slick or heavy on the skin. It provides both hydration through hydrosols and moisturization through tallow and nilotica, but is heavier on the hydrosols making this light enough for summertime or oily skin types while still nourishing enough for dryer ones.

Containing centella asiatica and vitamin B3, Angel Milk is formulated to support a healthy skin barrier, which leads to reduced inflammation, irritation, redness, blemishes, and enlarged pores.

Apply a pump or two onto clean skin. Can be used morning or night, but provides a glow that is perfect for starting your day.

Please note that this product contains niacinamide, which may cause a flushing effect for some people. This is harmless and typically lasts only a few seconds. Some people find that this effect goes away completely after regular use of niacinamide.

Shake well before use. Colour may vary.

  • Myrtle, Neroli, and Rose Hydrosols

    Hydrosols are the steam distillation of fresh plant material. Likened to a hologram of the plant, each drop of hydrosol contains trace amounts of essential oils, the water-soluble constituents, and the water that flowed through the actual plant. Myrtle, rose, and neroli are anciently adored beauty tonics that have been trusted around the world. The trio was selected in this formula as a rendition of Eau D'Ange, a lotion used in Europe in the 16th century.

  • Centella

    Centella asiatica is a prized herb in skincare, particularly popular in K-Beauty. Centella is known to help support the skin barrier, which in turn supports reduced inflammation and sensitivity and healthy, glowing, calm complexion. Through this effect, the skin can also retain hydration better.

    In Angel Milk, centella is potently infused into tallow and nilotica to create a full-spectrum extraction using the whole plant as nature intended.

  • Pearl Powder and Laminar Mica

    These minerals impart an ethereal glow thanks to immediate light-reflecting qualities but also thanks to their deeper restorative work. Finely milled pearls have been used as a Shen tonic for beauty and the spirit for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. Laminar mica is a powerful powdered crystal that helps to structure the water of this formula, allowing for a hydration that is readily recognized and utilised on a cellular level.

What We Offer

Organic, Wildcrafted, and Grass-Fed

Sourcing is at the forefront of Flora Numina products. Our botanicals and flower essences are organic or wildcrafted, and animal-based products are both organic and grass-fed (where applicable). We believe that if natural products are tainted by chemical influences such as pesticides and genetically modified ingredients, they can do more harm than good. We would rather miss out of making a product or using an ingredient if not available at a high purity than compromise on this belief.

Animal-Based

Our skincare is focused on using healing and nourishing animal-based saturated fats. Products like tallow and ghee are highly stable, meaning they do not easily oxidise like unsaturated plant oils (such as rosehip oil, sunflower oil, and grapeseed oil which are all so popular in skincare). This is important as oxidisation can lead to skin damage, aging, inflammation, and so on.

In addition to stability, animal-based fats are loaded with fat-soluble vitamins, fatty acids, antioxidants, and so on that feed and repair our skin, no matter the concern or skin type.

Since animals can store toxins in their fat, it is integral to source fats from healthy animals. This is why Flora Numina uses exclusively organic and grass-fed tallow and ghee harvested from pastured, healthy cows.

Practitioner Formulated

Flora Numina was founded by a certified flower essence practitioner and licensed acupuncturist who sought to bring her formulations to a larger population. With in-depth experience both personally and professionally with flower essences and herbal medicine, the offerings at Flora Numina are nuanced, intuitive, and made with love for both the plants and the people.

Respectfully Cultivated

Interacting with nature, Flora Numina ingredients are sourced respectfully with gratitude for the life force behind every botanical and animal-based ingredient. Where relevant, sustainable wildcrafting and ethical farming practices are employed.
