Very good cleaning oil
This cleansing oil is ideal for sensitive skin, I suffer from rosacea and I had no problem using it, neither dryness nor redness, the skin is hydrated, soft and very clean even when you remove the makeup, remove all the rest of it. I recommend it.

This product needs better instructions for people that don't know what a deep oil cleanser is!!
I am new to oil cleansers/double cleansing. I purchased this with the toner pads and serum thinking i was doing something. I ended up with staph on my chin and jaw, bc NOWHERE on here nor the bottle does it say this is only meant to be used ONCE A DAY, and washed off with a gentle cleanser afterwards. ALL instructions say rinse with water and then use the other items in the line. I damaged my skin barrier and wanted to hide away for over a month. HOWEVER, now that I have gone to the lengths of figuring out what happened and educating myself and using this product the correct way for a few days, I am seeing slight improvement already.
Just make sure you know how to use a deep oil cleanser when buying this bc i didnt!!

Nice starter skin care set that refined pores for a smoother and brighter complexion
This cleansing oil was purchased and arrived as a 3pc set that I have purchased. Along with this cleansing oil, it also came with the toner and closer pore reducing serum. I have been incorporating all three products into my daily skin care routine/regimen. So cleanse, tone, then moisturized. This cleanser is very gentle, and it leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed after cleansing, to prepped it before I apply the toner and follow up with the Closer pore reducing serum as the last step. Overall, I really like this set. The Close serum has a thicker consistency than my other serum, but it applies well and also seem to absorbed fairly quickly, so it doesn't leave my skin/face feeling sticky.
