DHC Deep Cleansing Oil Facial Cleansing Oil Makeup Remover Cleanses without Clogging Pores Residue-Free Fragrance and Colorant Free

I love this cleansing oil. I have combination skin with large pores that fill with sebum quickly. I massage this onto dry skin for about 10 minutes and then I rinse. It leaves my skin clean, smooth and soft without drying out my skin. It doesn’t leave my skin oily and doesn’t cause any break outs. You won’t see black heads or clogged pores bead up but it will instead melt what’s clogging them. Read more

This has to be the best face cleanser/makeup removers I have ever used in my 42 years of existence. Now before I tell you about the product - let me tell you about my skin: Uber sensitive, oily T-section, very prone to breakouts, blackheads, eczema, blotches, allergic reactions, you name it. I just look at some cleansers and my skin breaks out. I wear contact lenses, and my eyes are sensitive too. Now the last thing I would ever think of putting on my face is anything that has an "oil" in it, yet alone a product that IS an "oil." First of all, logic dictates that oil and water don't mix, plus if you've ever dripped salad oil on your chin, you know it's impossible to get out - and your skin feels greasy even after 2 showers later. And then you break out with a pimple there because your pores got clogged. Right? Now getting back to this product. I was watching one of those shopping channels on TV, and this really pricey cleansing oil comes on. And the lady just rubs the cleansing oil into her skin with her dry fingers (no water) and the makeup just melts off. She rubs it into waterproof lipstick, takes a white cloth and the whole thing wipes right off in one swoop! Noo... that's impossible. Then she does it again on her eyes - dry hands, pumps a few drips of the oil into her hand, massages it into her eyelids, and within 10 seconds later even the waterproof mascara gets wiped away with the cloth. Now there was no way I was going to pay $120 a bottle for their cleansing oil, so I went on Amazon to see if there was a comparable alternative. I came across this DHC one and figured, what the heck? Wow! I cannot believe it - this stuff works incredibly! I did it the same way as on TV, and my eyeshadow, waterproof eyeliner, and waterproof mascara, even the glue from false eyelashes just comes right off. I just pump 2-3 pumps of oil in my hand, close my eyes, rub my face with this oil for like 10-12 seconds, feel around for the cotton pad on the counter without opening my eyes, and wipe away the oil around my eyes, lips. Then I cup my hands with warm water and splash it on my face several times. Supposedly you don't have to use water, but I do. The oil comes right off - no oily feeling at all. And my skin is smooth. Now this sounds crazy - but the blackheads around my nose area - 100% gone! Somehow this oil (over a week's time) works better than any clay mask I have ever used in removing clogged pores. Just in case you also wear contacts, you know contacts plus any oil is bad and makes red, itchy, dry eyes. So I usually remove my contacts (just in case) first, and then wash my face. Or if I have to put my contacts back in right afterwards, I do use a normal cleanser for my face afterwards in my eye area, just to ensure there's no trace of oil. So far (been through 3 bottles) I have not had any problems. No breakouts, no scrubbing to get off makeup, no itchy skin, no blackheads - actually I think it might be protecting my skin somehow because even during this itchy pollen season, I'm perfectly fine. Love love love this stuff!!! Read more

I’ve used this cleansing oil for nearly 20 years and it’s still my favorite. I’ve tried others, but none compare to the quality. It removes makeup and impurities completely while leaving my skin soft and moisturized. Both of my daughters started using it as well. Highly recommend!!! Read more

This is the best invention ever!! Takes makeup right off without stinging your eyes. You can literally rub this on your eyes to remove mascara etc and it doesn't hurt at all. Not even one little bit. Incidentally, I also use it to clean my oil paint brushes because it melts away the oil based paint and keeps the natural kolinsky sable hair soft and supple. Kolinsky sable brushes are extremely expensive, so I love that fact that I found something natural that pampers them. I will never be without this olive oil cleanser. Read more

I used this cleansing oil for my face and I purchased twice. This cleansing oils is excellent to remove dirt from my face. It leaves my skin soft and clean. It is a very effective cleansing and I feel my face ready to continue with my skincare routine. I think this facial oil is a little expensive that it is why I do not give the five stars. Read more

I’ve been using this for years. It’s about the only thing that removes my waterproof mascara easily. It’s perfect for removing makeup, although I barely wear more than a light powder, mascara, and under eye concealer. There are very few products that are my holy grail staples and this is one of them. I will always find a way to buy this. People are very surprised by my real age, often guessing 8-10 years younger and it has made me even more of a DHC fan. Yes, my mama passed on her youthful genes to me, but I also attribute it to the simplicity of my products and routine. I’m thankful for beautiful skin. Keep it simple, that’s my motto. This oil cleanser can make you break out initially while your skin is getting used to it. Do a double cleansing method with witch hazel after. I store some cotton round pads in an old zit pad container and squirt some yellow capped witch hazel on them all and keep it tightly closed. Every night, I apply this oil to my dry face, working it in to get my waterproof mascara off, then I lather with water, rinse and pat dry, and then use a witch hazel pad to clean one more time. After that I sometimes use vitamin C serum, and I always use DHC Q10 eye cream and the DHC Rich Moisturizer. That’s it. My skin glows. I couldn’t be happier with these products. I’m a lifelong customer. I’ll never change. There isn’t anything better. Make it part of your routine and get through the skin detox stage and you should see results. Keep your skin happy and let it breathe, it needs to last a lifetime. Read more

I have been using this for about a month and I love it! Typically I have large pores and suffer from hormonal acne frequently but adding this in before my actual cleanser has helped so much. My pores were visually smaller after using it for a week, I can literally feel it removing gunk from my skin as I’m using it. It’s doesn’t dry my skin out even with using other products afterwards. Definitely will be buying again, it’s great! Read more
