Out of all the cleansing oils I've tried, this one's been the best for managing blackheads and pores. The only downside might be the amount you get for the price. Other than that, I didn't find any major issues with the product. Even with heavy makeup, if you roll it thoroughly, it removes everything including eyeliner and mascara. It's perfect for my combination skin with oily areas when followed up with a foam cleanser. I'd recommend it for oily skin types too. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinJan 5, 2017
This product worked well for me in many ways. I first bought it at Olive Young and liked it, so I kept using it. These days it's not easy to find in stores, so I've purchased over 10 bottles online! The price isn't exactly cheap for the amount you get, which is a bit disappointing. But despite that, I still want to keep using it! Make sure to remove lip and eye makeup with a remover first! Then massage the oil thoroughly, add a bit of water, and keep massaging and massaging! - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinNov 26, 2016
It feels like it cleanses effectively without stripping the skin, and there's minimal tightness after washing. As someone with super sensitive skin, I've been choosing products with fewer surfactants. Compared to soap or foam cleansers, this is much less irritating, which I really appreciate. The price is a bit steep. Using it twice a day for cleansing, it lasts about a month and a half. I typically use about three pumps per wash (and I only wear light makeup usually). - qu****Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessDead Skin CellsOct 27, 2016
It seems to cleanse well without leaving a greasy feeling. Though there's nothing particularly outstanding about it, there's nothing bad either, haha! It doesn't cause any tingling and feels pretty decent overall. Maybe it's because I haven't tried other oils, but compared to other brands' cleansing waters, which can sting a bit on acne scars... Just gently massage it in. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinSep 22, 2016
A major plus is that this cleansing oil doesn't contain mineral oil, which is commonly found in most cleansing oils and can clog pores, leading to blemishes. I've been avoiding cleansing oils despite my blackheads and excess sebum, precisely because of the acne caused by mineral oil. However, this product uses olive oil instead of mineral oil, so I didn't break out, and its cleansing effectiveness was quite good. Since it's not a mineral oil-based product, it doesn't instantly dissolve waterproof makeup. That's not to say it doesn't work at all, but it requires a bit more time and effort to melt and roll off the makeup. (I've deducted one star for this, as some people prioritize quick cleansing.) If you use strong waterproof mascaras like Kiss Me, here's a tip: First, thoroughly saturate the eye area with the oil. Then, massage the rest of your face. Finally, go back and carefully roll the oil around your eyes. By this time, the mascara will have dissolved, making it easier to remove. - ic********Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinJun 23, 2016
I really liked that the oil didn't feel unpleasant on my skin, and the finish was quite nice too. Using this product didn't necessarily improve my skin or reduce my blemishes. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinFeb 20, 2016
It effectively removes even heavy makeup while providing an excellent massage experience. After using this as the first step in my double cleansing routine, followed by a foaming cleanser, I'm a bit disappointed that it loses that nice, fresh feeling. After massaging with the oil, wet your hands and gently massage your face while rinsing. This method really helps to remove makeup thoroughly. - pr*********Combination SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessEnlarged PoresJul 17, 2015
I have oily and sensitive skin, so after using oil cleansers, my face would get greasy and blemishes would start appearing, which made me avoid them. But with this product, I didn't experience any of that! After washing, it feels... somehow... hydrated? There's barely any scent, and it's quite nice overall. You'll need to use a separate remover for lip products and eye makeup. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinJul 9, 2015
Honestly... I used to have skin that rarely got small blemishes, but due to lack of sleep and other reasons, my skin had a bad breakout. After cleansing and massaging with this product, my skin returned to normal in just 5-7 days. Since then, my complexion has maintained a natural glow. There wasn't anything particularly disappointing, but I'm not a fan of the pump dispenser. - Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinMay 24, 2015
It's not too harsh and while it doesn't feel like it's cleansing thoroughly, it removes everything. I switched from Espoir cleansing oil and noticed my pores starting to look smaller. It's excellent at removing sebum yet has a gentle formula. I usually pay attention to my pores, and this manages both whiteheads and blackheads. The milia around my chin disappeared. I used to use Shu Uemura, but when I stopped using all Japanese cosmetics, I tried various options including the budget-friendly Etude oil praised on Get It Beauty. However, this seems to be the best. The scent is strongly grapefruit at first, but as you get used to it, it feels more like a general fruit fragrance. It seems to offer the best quality possible at this price point. The 100ml size means you need to replace it frequently. Heavy makeup requires pre-removal with a dedicated remover. Of course, it stings if it gets in your eyes. Neutrogena cleansing oil offers 400ml for a similar price when it's on a 1+1 deal. Still, I'll stick with this one, haha. Just because it's my holy grail doesn't mean it will be everyone's holy grail. It's good to pump the oil twice to massage your whole face, then pump once more to focus on problem areas before rinsing with water. For me, about 3 minutes was ideal, but adjust according to your skin type. When it comes in contact with water, it emulsifies more smoothly than other oils and doesn't feel sticky, making it easy to rinse off. It's designed to rinse off easily with water, but since I have oily skin, I finish with a cleansing foam.
