Above all, after using it, your skin texture really improves. If you've been stressed about uneven skin, I highly recommend this. While you can wash off the oil with soap if you don't have a gel cleanser, I suggest using the Green Barley Gel Cleanser from the same line. They work in synergy beautifully. It has great cleansing effectiveness and there's no specific skin type it's limited to - it's suitable for all.
ConsIt's not really a drawback, but the oil is quite thin, so it's best not to squeeze out too much. It tends to run down your face.
TipUse one pump on each side of your face, once on your forehead (it will flow down to your nose), and a little on your chin. It's particularly effective on areas with whiteheads or excess sebum on the chin and other spots.

It's the best at removing makeup among all the oils I've used. You don't even need a separate eye or lip remover - it takes off most mascaras and eye makeup effortlessly. Plus, it's fragrance-free, which I really appreciate as someone who doesn't like scented oils. The texture is quite fluid, like water. However, I should caution that it might leave a slightly tight feeling after use, so I'd be careful recommending it to those with super sensitive skin or deep dryness. On the bright side, you get a generous amount, so it lasts for ages!
ConsThe water-like consistency can be a bit tricky to handle - it tends to run down your arms, which can be inconvenient. Also, I never really understood what people meant by skin feeling 'tight' until I used this oil. There were a few times when I didn't follow up with a foam cleanser properly, and I ended up with some blemishes. Apart from these issues, everything else about the product was pretty good!
TipFor efficient use, pump the product two or three times onto dry hands. Then, apply it evenly on your cheeks and forehead, gently massaging in circular motions. This method helps you use the oil economically while ensuring effective cleansing.

The complimentary keyring is small and comes with a mirror, making it very practical! The formula has a water-like consistency and glides on smoothly. When gently massaged with your fingers, it effectively removes makeup without the need for a second cleanse, showcasing its excellent cleansing effectiveness! I was able to use it without any irritation during the massage, and even after rinsing with water and patting dry, my skin retained hydration without any deep dryness, which was great!
ConsThere is a scent, but it's not overpowering, so I could use it comfortably!

But after using this, it's seriously improved! My overall skin texture has gotten better, and most importantly, those pesky bumps I used to feel when touching my nose are completely gone. Every time I feel how smooth my skin is now, I'm overjoyed!
ConsThe pump is quite squeaky and makes a 'pffft' sound when pressed. It's a bit tricky to control the amount that comes out.

Pros: Gentle, excellent cleansing power, great finish - Gentle I usually don't use cleansing oils much because they tend to feel irritating, but this one definitely felt less harsh and gentler than other cleansing oils. The ingredients must be good because it was soft on my blemishes with almost no irritation. For an oil, it's a great product for daily use without feeling heavy. Also, it doesn't sting when it gets in your eyes, so it was convenient for removing eye makeup without needing a separate remover. - Great cleansing power and finish When I use cleansing oils, I usually feel like there's residue left at the end, so I tend to wash again with a cleansing foam or lip and eye remover. However, this product leaves less of an oily feeling at the end and has good cleansing effectiveness, resulting in a really nice finish. I don't often use cleansing oils because they usually feel heavy and leave an oily finish, but this one feels lighter and fresher than other cleansing oils, so I found myself using it more frequently. Not only does it cleanse well, but it also helps with dead skin cell management.
Cons- Almost no effect on blackheads I've tried many popular products like Manyo Factory and others, but they haven't had much effect. After using consistently for a few months, you might notice them becoming slightly less noticeable, but you can't expect significant results. However, it was good for managing dead skin cells and whiteheads, and the finish was better than other oils, making it more pleasant to use. - Won't repurchase While I liked the lighter and fresher feel compared to other oils, as well as its high cleansing power, I wouldn't recommend buying it specifically for blackhead removal. I think I'll use foam cleansers more often than oils, so I probably won't purchase this again.
TipUsing it too often or for too long to remove blackheads can irritate your nose. It's best to use it for no more than 5 minutes after softening your nose with lukewarm water. You need to use it consistently to see results!

It effectively recharges moisture while removing impurities! The rice bran oil helps maintain hydration and effectively cleans out dead skin cells and sebum, leaving your skin smooth and moisturized. The quick emulsification process allows for easy cleansing without any residue, making it great for blackhead removal. I loved how it left my skin feeling fresh without any discomfort! With a skin irritation index of 0.00, it's gentle enough for those with sensitive skin to use without worry. The product showed a 91.28% improvement in cleansing skin texture and impurities right after use, leaving my skin feeling thoroughly clean. As someone who wears heavy makeup, I was impressed that it could even remove eye makeup and lipstick without needing a separate remover. The cleansing effectiveness test showed a 99.27% improvement!
ConsOccasionally, you might need to pay a bit more attention when removing clumpy formulas like mascara or eyebrow mascara. I was slightly concerned about potential irritation from the LHA ingredient, but the product felt gentle and fine during use.
TipEven with just one use, it showed a 35.34% improvement in blackhead and whitehead reduction. While I don't typically use cleansing oils often, I find this perfect for those times when I feel like my pores are clogged or visibly noticeable. The immediate and noticeable changes make me want to keep using it regularly.

I've been using it for about two weeks, and it removes makeup thoroughly (I usually use a pore primer, makeup fixer, shimmery color products, and mascara, but when I massage it well and emulsify properly, everything comes off nicely). I even felt a slight improvement in my blackheads! Since we use cleansing oils for a thorough and meticulous cleanse, I think it's great that this one rinses off so cleanly.
ConsThe scent was a bit... disappointing. The product works well, but the smell was a letdown. Also, this might not be entirely fair to criticize, but about a week after I started using it, I got a big pimple under my nose. However, that's a spot where I often get blemishes anyway... Considering I'm not getting any small bumps, it seems to be a gentle product, but I guess it can't prevent all breakouts.

I really felt like it melted away my makeup effortlessly. As I rolled the cleansing oil on my skin, I could see it effectively removing sebum too. I was satisfied to feel little granules while massaging, which added to the cleansing experience. I've used other brands' cleansing oils before and didn't like the slippery feeling, so I switched to cleansing milk. However, the cleansing milk lacked in cleansing power. The Barley Cleansing Oil, on the other hand, not only cleanses thoroughly but also leaves no residue, which I love! I highly recommend this for: - Those who dislike the residue left by other cleansing oils - Those who found their cleanser's cleansing power lacking - Those looking for a fresh-feeling cleansing oil Give it a try!
ConsThere's nothing I've found disappointing about this product so far! It's the cleansing oil I've been searching for.

As someone who's been a nomad in search of the perfect oil, I've finally found my holy grail. After trying over 10 different brands, I can confidently say this is unlike any other oil I've used. I'm settling down with this one for life! 🌱Vegan Effect Cleansing Oil Review🌱 Effectiveness: It absolutely annihilates blackheads! Being a deep cleansing oil, it just whisks away sebum effortlessly. After use, my skin feels incredibly soft and smooth. It's truly amazing - even after showering when pores are typically open, there's no residual sebum. My skin is left perfectly clean and silky smooth. Residue: This deserves high praise too. There's absolutely zero residue left behind. It leaves your skin squeaky clean and super soft. Unlike other oils that leave a lingering scent, this one rinses away completely, leaving no trace behind. Scent: I absolutely adore it! It has a tea tree-like fragrance that's so relaxing to use. I found myself feeling happy every time I used it because I love the scent so much. There are so many oils out there with strange smells, but this tea tree scented oil is just perfect. Pump: This is another feature that won me over. The pump dispenses the product smoothly and efficiently. You'll be amazed at how convenient it is to use. Recommendation: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot recommend this enough! For those who haven't tried it yet, please give it a chance. I really hope this product becomes widely known. I'm not praising it just because I'm part of The Hwahae Testers - I swear on all my fingers and toes that this is a life-changing oil with absolutely no downsides. The effects are incredible, so please, everyone, just try it once!
ConsThere are absolutely no downsides, but I do have some important advice to share! Caution: Do not use this on active acne. Those with blemishes should always be careful when using oils. Make sure to avoid applying it directly on acne as it could potentially worsen the condition. If you have acne, you can still use the product, but be extra careful not to let it touch the affected areas!
TipPro tip: 1. Warm a damp towel for 30-40 seconds 2. Let it cool slightly and place it on your nose 3. Once the towel cools, remove it, wipe off any remaining water, and dry your nose 4. Use the oil while your pores are still open This method is incredibly effective when you're dealing with excessive sebum. It leaves your skin even softer! Just remember not to do this too often as it can enlarge pores. Save it for days when your sebum production is particularly high!
