The Hwahae Pure Cleansing Oil was a product that I immediately understood why it was so popular as soon as I started using it. Normally, I only use sunscreen or pore care products, but when I'm at school, the dust, sweat, and oil tend to build up, so even if I don't cleanse properly for a day, I tend to get breakouts, so I'm more careful in selecting cleansing products than usual. This oil, when applied to a dry face and gently rolled, literally melted away the oil and blackheads that had built up around my nose and chin, and I could actually feel the dead skin cells rolling around on my fingertips, which was really amazing! Even though I don't wear makeup often, the cleansing power was sufficient on makeup days, and what I liked most was that despite being an oil, it didn't leave a sticky or heavy residue, but finished off feeling refreshed. The oily feel was almost non-existent, and while it didn't feel squeaky clean when emulsified with water, it left my skin feeling moisturized. Completing the double cleanse routine, my skin texture was refined, and my pores looked much cleaner. This product has become a staple in my nightly skincare routine. It also has almost no scent, so even those sensitive to fragrance can use it without worry. The massaging sensation while rolling it on also helped relieve the day's fatigue. The most satisfying part was that with consistent use, the frequency of skin breakouts decreased, and my blackheads visibly lightened. I could actually see the blackhead-like spots on my nose bridge diminishing, so I have every intention of repurchasing this product in the future!!!
ConsWhen first using oil products, the application process may not be familiar, and if emulsification is not done properly, the feeling of oil remaining on the face can be uncomfortable and stuffy. When using the product around the eye area, a slight stinging sensation may be felt, so the eye area should be used with caution. Sebum and blackheads do not disappear immediately, so one may think the product is not working after just a day or two of use. However, I noticed definite changes after using it consistently for about a week, so I recommend being patient and gently nourishing the skin, rather than expecting quick results. The emulsification process may feel cumbersome or inconvenient for some, but considering the importance of cleansing, it is a reasonable trade-off.
TipPersonally, I use this product as an essential item in my evening cleansing routine. Normally, I pump it onto my dry face and roll it for over a minute, focusing on the nose and chin area. Then, I thoroughly emulsify it with lukewarm water and finish with a gentle, mildly acidic foam cleanser, leaving my skin refreshed and residue-free. For areas with many blackheads, such as the sides of the nose, or the forehead and jawline where sebum often builds up, I spend a bit more time rolling. Once or twice a week, I open my pores with a warm compress before using the product, which enhances its effectiveness. After cleansing, applying a toner or soothing ampoule immediately boosts absorption. Even on days with severe blemishes, I can use this without irritation, allowing me to incorporate it into my daily routine, even when my skin is sensitive. The day after using it, my sebum production is reduced, and my skin texture is much smoother, making my morning cleansing much easier. As a student, I don't wear makeup every day, but on days when I only use sunscreen, this deep-cleansing oil makes a noticeable difference in my skin condition the next day, with fewer blemishes, so I plan to continue using it going forward.

ConsThe scent and texture felt a bit heavy, but it's still okay overall.

It effortlessly dissolves even heavy makeup, eliminating the need for a separate makeup remover. • Blackhead/Sebum Removal When you massage it in with circular motions, it gently removes impurities like blackheads and excess sebum. It feels like it's cleansing deep into the pores, leaving your skin noticeably more refined after washing. • Perfect for Double Cleansing When used as the first step in a double cleansing routine followed by a foam cleanser, it leaves your skin squeaky clean. It's ideal for those who prefer a refreshing and thorough cleanse that leaves skin feeling purified.
Cons• High Oil Density The texture can feel quite heavy, making it seem denser than typical cleansing oils. Especially for those who prefer lightweight and fresh oils, the feel of this product might come across as a bit heavy or overwhelming.

While the oil is quite rich and the texture is heavy, making it require more effort to massage, the cleansing effectiveness isn't bad. The actual cleansing happens during the emulsification process. Although the cleansing oil feels a bit heavy, it emulsifies well when mixed with water.
ConsThe oil itself is heavier and more suffocating than even cleansing balms. I stopped using it and switched to an alternative cleansing oil.
TipSince the cleansing oil alone is too heavy, I started emulsifying it earlier than I would with other cleansing oils by adding water sooner in the process.

The cleansing effectiveness is great.
ConsAmong the cleansing oils I've tried, this one feels about average or slightly heavy. If I don't follow up with a second cleansing foam, my skin feels a bit uncomfortable.
TipIn summer, I gently massage it on my nose to remove blackheads.

I usually avoided cleansing oils thinking they'd be too greasy, but I got the chance to try this one as part of The Hwahae Testers. First off, the cleansing effectiveness was better than I expected. It was hard to photograph, so I applied foundation, lip product, eyeliner, eyebrow product, and blush on my arm. As you can see, it cleanses everything thoroughly. Of course, it worked just as well on my face. Also, after using it, my nose felt smoother than before. It's not so much that it looks visibly cleaner, but it feels smoother to the touch. So it seems to have a slight effect on blackheads, though not dramatically.
ConsBeing an oil, it does feel a bit heavy when cleansing.
TipWhile it cleanses well, a second cleanse is still necessary.

In my case, I need to follow up with a foam cleanser, but the ingredients are great and it's excellent value for money, so I've made it a staple in my routine.
ConsWhile it effectively removes both blackheads and whiteheads, I find that after the emulsification process, my skin doesn't feel completely clean, leaving a slightly heavy feeling. That's why I need to use a foam cleanser afterward.
TipMake sure to thoroughly understand and follow the usage instructions!

Let me start with the advantages: 1. Effectively removes sebum You don't need to massage for a long time - it seems to remove stubborn sebum quite easily! You can feel the sebum coming out during cleansing... And interestingly, blackheads on the nose and chin dissolve better during the emulsification process rather than during massaging! I find that wiping with a cotton swab while emulsifying makes removal even easier! 2. Absolutely no eye irritation Unlike other brands I've used before, which always made me nervous about getting product in my eyes when removing eye makeup or massaging for sebum removal, this one from The Witch Factory doesn't sting or irritate at all even if it gets in your eyes! This is the biggest advantage for me! 3. Less dryness after cleansing I have combination dehydrated skin with a lot of dead skin cells, so usually just washing my face leads to deep dryness and flaking. But with this oil, my skin feels moisturized after cleansing, with almost no tightness!
ConsThe formula feels a bit heavy and thick, which can make your skin feel slightly suffocated. Actually, many of my friends have mentioned that they're hesitant to use it because the texture is too heavy for their liking.
TipI've noticed that hard sebum plugs are removed well during the initial massage, while blackheads and whiteheads tend to dissolve during the emulsification process. For more effective removal, gently use a cotton swab or the side of an extractor tool during this stage!

ConsPersonally, I found it too heavy when applied to the face, and it didn't really remove blackheads. It's definitely not a lightweight formula, so I don't reach for it often when cleansing. Even after emulsifying, it leaves a greasy finish that feels suffocating. I wouldn't recommend this to those who prefer lighter textures.

As someone who wears heavy eye makeup, most cleansing oils struggle to remove waterproof mascara, extended eyeliner, and glittery eyeshadow, often leaving residue. I tried this without high expectations after a friend's recommendation, but wow - it's a game-changer! This miracle worker dissolves mascara effortlessly, no need for a separate eye makeup remover. Honestly, this one product can remove all your makeup... I stock up every time it's on sale. Once you experience the convenience of thorough cleansing in one step, you'll never go back to other cleansing oils.
ConsThis product might not appeal to those who prefer that squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing. While I appreciated how it maintained my skin's moisture, people with oily skin might find it a bit heavy.
