But surprisingly, this product, despite being an oil, leaves my skin feeling as clean as a water cleanser would - no oily residue at all! It's amazing. There's no feeling of heaviness or worry about potential blemishes either. The texture is a bit thinner than most oils, which caught me off guard at first as it ran through my fingers. Just keep that in mind, and you'll find it's really great. Its cleansing effectiveness is impressive - even a small amount removes makeup thoroughly. It takes off eyeliner, lipstick, and other everyday makeup, making it perfect for daily use. It also emulsifies well, turning milky white. I appreciate that the scent isn't artificially strong, and the packaging is sleek and appealing.
ConsI'm not sure about its effectiveness in improving whiteheads and blackheads... I think I'll need to use it longer to see results!

Texture: It has a light, water-like texture, which I think is one of the biggest advantages of the Acnes Cleansing Oil compared to other cleansing oils! Usually, when I use cleansing oils, they feel heavy and seem to clog my pores, so I had to wash multiple times, but this cleansing oil felt so light after use that I could feel my pores were free of impurities. Skin: My skin is dry and sensitive, so I prefer gentle, moisturizing products! For daily makeup, the cleansing oil alone was enough to remove makeup cleanly, so I used a combination of this cleansing oil and Dr. Lab Sulfur Powder Wash. I loved how it finished without any irritation to my skin and left it moisturized and refreshed! Overall: 5/5 Among the cleansing oils I've used, this one was the most satisfying in terms of finish and cleansing effectiveness! Especially for dry skin that remains dry even with thorough skincare, this moisturizing cleansing oil is like an oasis. I think I'll stick with this cleansing oil from now on!
ConsBlackhead and whitehead improvement: After using the cleansing oil, the improvement in blackheads and whiteheads wasn't noticeable enough to see with the naked eye! While it left no residue, I had to use it with other exfoliating products to see improvement.
TipIf your goal is to improve dead skin cells, whiteheads, and blackheads, I recommend using an exfoliating product along with this cleansing oil!

As someone with unpredictable skin, I rarely use cleansing oils due to residue and incompatibility. However, this experience was different. Even though I don't wear much makeup, I enjoyed applying the oil to my bare skin and massaging it in, appreciating its subtle fragrance. The consistency during emulsification was unique - not too thin, which I really liked. It didn't irritate my skin or cloud my vision when it got in my eyes. The gentleness on my skin was definitely the highlight for me.
ConsOn the downside, I couldn't really tell if it made a difference with blackheads or whiteheads. There wasn't a noticeable change in dead skin cells after 1-2 uses either. I felt like there was some residue after rinsing, so I followed up with a second cleanse. The pump dispenses a bit too much product at once, so I had to press it gently to control the amount.
TipMake sure to massage thoroughly and emulsify carefully!

Scent: While I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, I find the scent quite pleasant by my standards. 2. Cleansing effectiveness: I tried it with light makeup, and it removed everything cleanly. Curious about its performance with full makeup, I gave it a go, and it even removed mascara effectively. 3. Texture: It leaves a refreshing finish. Usually, I don't experience much tightness or dryness after washing my face, but with this product, my skin felt even less dry than usual.
ConsUnfortunately, it doesn't help much with blackheads or whiteheads. It's best to only expect its cleansing benefits.

The scent is quite neutral, and the texture is thin and transparent, almost like water. Among all the cleansing oils I've tried, this one has the best cleansing effectiveness! I was pleasantly surprised, especially since it's advertised as gentle on the skin. It emulsifies really well, isn't irritating at all, and leaves my skin feeling wonderfully hydrated after rinsing. I absolutely love the moisturizing finish! Highly recommended!
ConsThe moisturizing finish might feel like residue to some people. I'd suggest following up with a gentle foam cleanser for a second cleanse or using a sponge for the final touch. I didn't notice any significant changes in my blackheads or whiteheads.
TipFor the best results, emulsify thoroughly with warm water before rinsing. This will leave your skin feeling hydrated with zero residue - perfect cleansing done!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Testers Ingredients & Hydration: As someone with dry skin prone to blemishes before my period, I tried the Acnes POHA Oil. POHA stands for 4HA, which claims to provide quadruple care for pores, dead skin cells, sebum, and skin texture. I've always struggled with blackheads and whiteheads, so I'm excited to use this consistently! Though Acnes is typically for oily skin, I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't too drying for my dry skin - perhaps thanks to the 4HA. It felt refreshing and less drying than expected! Texture: Unlike other oils I've used, this has a thinner consistency and doesn't feel overly oily. The texture explains why it feels so fresh after cleansing. Since I always double cleanse with a foam cleanser, I'm satisfied with how clean my skin feels afterwards. Scent: The fragrance strikes a nice balance - not too artificial, yet not overly natural. It's a subtle scent that I find pleasant. As someone who generally likes fragrances, I don't mind it. However, if you're sensitive to scents, you might want to take note!
ConsIn terms of blemishes, I didn't experience any issues. However, based on my brief usage, I haven't seen a dramatic improvement in my blackheads and whiteheads yet. That said, my skin looks incredibly clear right after washing, so I think consistent use might yield better results over time.
TipHere's a little tip, though not quite a pro tip: When using this oil to remove makeup, spend more time emulsifying with water than applying the oil itself. During the emulsification process, I use a silicone finger brush (available at Daiso) to gently massage the areas with blackheads and whiteheads before rinsing.

After using it consistently for a few days, I noticed it was definitely effective at removing sebum from my nose right from the start. It also does a great job of exfoliating dead skin cells. While it doesn't completely eliminate whiteheads, I've seen gradual improvement.
ConsThe scent might be a bit strong for some. It has a floral fragrance which doesn't bother me much, but some users might find it unpleasant. Also, don't expect dramatic whitehead removal with just one use. It seems like consistent use over time could gradually reduce them.
TipTry applying it all over your dry face, then roll it on, focusing extra attention on problem areas. After that, you can layer a pore-cleansing clay mask on top before rinsing it all off.

Cleansing effectiveness First off, I was amazed by how powerful the cleansing action is! Usually, I don't expect cleansing oils to remove mascara completely and tend to use a separate lip and eye remover. But when I tested this product, it removed mascara perfectly. As you can see in the photo, except for a slight stain from the Benefit water tint, all makeup was completely removed. This was even after I let the makeup set for 10 minutes for a more effective test. 2. Fresh feeling I think many people hesitate to buy cleansing oils because of the hassle of double cleansing, but this one feels so fresh that a second cleanse seems unnecessary! It's convenient and cleanses well - it's a game-changer. I highly recommend this for those with oily skin who've had trouble with oils before. 3. No eye irritation Every time I use this, it inevitably touches my eye area since I don't use a separate remover, but I've never experienced any burning sensation. It's amazing that a cleansing oil doesn't irritate the eyes at all.
ConsIt didn't seem to have much effect on blackheads or whiteheads, so it just felt like a standard cleansing product!
TipThe emulsification process is crucial! The cleansing effectiveness increases during emulsification, so make sure to emulsify thoroughly.
