I have to admit, I am a cleansing oil virgin. I have never touch cleansing oil since I started on applying make-up. Its mainly in the form of cleansing milk, cleansing lotion or cleansing water, but never cleansing oil. I avoid oil as much as possible, because I am afraid of pore-clogging if I did not cleanse my skin well.
I received the 50ml sample as part of a Shu Uemura sample pack purchase from Loreal Deals That Heal campaign. That also meant that I cannot get to choose the type of cleansing oil I want. Thank goodness that this enriched version for dry skin fits me well, without giving me any breakouts. I was so impressed with it, the first time I used it.
Shu Uemura is famed for their cleansing oil and I am glad that my virgin attempt at cleansing oil usage is from Shu Uemura which gave me courage to try out other brands. I guess the next popular one would be from Fancl.
It comes in 6 different types ( gasps! )
Pink: High performance balancing cleansing oil fresh – combi to oily skin
Yellow: High performance balancing cleansing oil advanced formula – all skin types
Orange: High performance balancing cleansing oil enriched – dry skin
Green: Cleansing beauty oil premium A/O advanced formula – aging skin concerns
Pale Yellow: Cleansing beauty oil premium A/I – stressed skin
Purple: Brightening cleansing oil advanced formula – dull skin tone
I know their cleansing oils are pricey but I am not sure of the exact price though I am sure I have seen it somewhere but never remember it, since it was never in my To-Buy list.
Meant to be used on dry face, the oil is slippery and oily on the skin, but it melts away all the make-up gunk on my skin and after washing it away, my skin become soft and smooth. Love it to bits. There was no tight feeling and my pores feel so much cleaner. I still use a cleanser after that as its a must for me to do double-cleansing.
Do note that I use a separate remover for the eyes, I am adverse to using oil-based products near my eyes so I cannot prove if it is indeed capable of removing waterproof eye products.
However, do that that while I do not have the ingredient list, I believe it does contain mineral oil, based on some users reviewers in Makeupalley which scored 4.3 from 42 users.
