Does cleansing your face with oil sound scary to you? Even if you have naturally oily skin, there’s no need to fear this form of face cleaning. Oil-based facial cleansers are ideal for a deep cleanse and can’t be beaten when it comes to eliminating impurities and removing makeup, especially waterproof makeup.
In fact, oil cleansers have caused a frenzy among celebrities. This process is called a double cleanse, given that it dissolves the bad oils your face accumulates, as well as helping tone, soften and nourish the skin. So make your beauty routine even more effective with some of the following cleansing oils:
The first thing we need to know is whichever oils you choose, the application is simple and you only need to place a few drops on your fingertips, spreading it over your face in circular motions. Then take it off with a damp piece of cotton wool.
Purify your skin
The Makeup-Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil ($30) by Boscia, is an oil that dissolves even the heaviest of makeup, thanks to its ingredients which include rosehip oil, green tea and golden palm oils, which unclog pores and refine the texture of your skin, together with jojoba leaf which acts as a powerful antioxidant.
