Love it - my go to cleansing oil!
I love this cleansing oil, I use it to remove waterproof makeup and it works like a charm. I know some people said it doesn't remove eye makeup well - it does, you just have to let it sit for a few second to let the oil breakdown the products and make sure you apply the oil to a dry face, not wet. Then add a splash of water, and keep massaging for a few more seconds before finally rinsing off.
There isn't much of a smell, but it's olive based, so any scent you get is simply that of olive oil. 1 pump is sufficient for me to wash my entire face.
I use it as part of double cleansing and it pairs really well with Vichy Normaderm. It leaves my skin smooth and soft. Gets rid of any and all oils. It actually made my combination skin normal. It's very safe on oily skin or combination skin.
The only catch for me is the price. There are other oil cleansers out there that are also Japanese, but about half the price for almost equivalent quality. Though this is definitely my #1 choice for oil cleansers as far as quality goes, I do sometimes opt for other options as they are more budget friendly.
Leaves my skin smooth as a baby's behind
This does the job. It cleans dirt below surface and does not leave your skin feeling oily. I've found it to be quite capable of acting as a makeup remover as well. I've been consistently using this product for 3 years!
Best for breakout problem skin my go to always!
I have had seasonal induced stress induced problem skin acne and hypersensitive skin to boot. I love the waterproof smudge proof makeup and this melts it all away. I found dryness was the result of acne products and thus my skin made more oil and more zits as well. I later found hydration is key to problem skin like mine and this is an oil but it washes completely off no residue and not harsh like other products. This is my all purpose must have cleansing face product and a little goes along way.
Always go back to this
This oil cleanser was one of the first I tried and even after trying out other brands, I still keep coming back to this one.
This oil cleanser is effective at removing makeup, even waterproof products. It comes with a pump which makes dispensing the product easy and clean.
The reason this is one of my go-to is that it doesn’t sting my eyes when using it.
Great oil cleanser
I bought a mini of the @dhcskincare Deep Cleansing Oil to try and I liked it. Then I saw an amazing offer on Black Friday so I bought the big bottle! (200ml for £12, which is half price!) I like how nicely it glides on the skin and then turns milky and washes off easily with water. It removes my makeup really well and leaves my face feeling clean. It doesn’t leave any greasy residue.
Love this!!
I use this as a first step in double cleansing, and it is amazing-- all of my makeup (including all stubborn mascara and eyeliner bits) are completely gone, and it basically makes my nose pores disappear (only for about an hour though, sigh). Will keep repurchasing!
A skincare staple
Again on the pricey side, but I would say that this is an investment for great skin. It wipes off makeup in an instant and great for those with dry skin.
One of my go-to cleansing oil
This product is one that I continue to repurchase even after trying other cleansing oils. This is a gentle method of removing makeup including ones that are waterproof which limits the amount of tugging and rubbing on your skin which may cause irritation.
While it is on the pricey end and I often have to purchase this online as only a few stores carry it in my area (often at a marked up price), I still find it worthy to purchase. It is extremely efficient at removing waterproof products, it emulsifies beautifully and rinses easily without stripping your skin of its natural oils. It is olive-oil based and I have had no adverse reaction to the product in the many years I have been using it. This is also one of the few cleansing oils that does not cause stinging in my eyes.
Although pricey, because of its effectiveness, I find a bottle lasts me a while as you only need 3-4 pumps of the product to fully cleanse your face.
Classic for good reason
In some ways this is the Chanel no.5 of the oil cleansing world because it's a classic but it's not for everyone. You either love it or you hate it.
I like how its thick, rich texture has staying power during long facial massages, and I like how quickly it emulsifies with water, then rinses away cleanly. My only issue is the price because $35CAD for 200mL is a bit steep. Though it does stand up well against higher priced luxury cleansers.
Would recommend and repurchase again
I have purchased DHC cleansing oil several times. It removes all traces of makeup gently and effectively. I have tried several other cleansing oils including the stonecrop one from eminence and a variety from etsy. All the others are nice but I find this one does not ever break me out or have a fragrance that bothers me. It constantly does what I need it to with just one pump. I use this first followed by my la Roche posay hydrating cleanser. This allows me to use my nightly acne prescriptions. I also have a friend at work hooked on this product.
