description

Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil is a pore-clearing Japanese cleansing oil. The makeup removing oil gently melts away longwearing makeup while lifting away blackheads, clogged pores, and other impurities in the pores. It rinses off easily, leaving with no residue. Skin feels thoroughly clean and smooth. The cleansing oil is renewed in 2016 to better clear pores. A new luxurious blend of 5 certified organic oils (olive oil, jojoba oil, sesame oil, safflower oil, and shea butter) keeps skin smooth and moisturised.

ingredients

oryza sativa (rice) bran oil, mineral oil, sorbeth-30 tetraoleate, triethyl hexanoine, cyclomethicone, orange oil, tocopherol, simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil, glycerin, polyglyceryl-2 diisostearate, trilaureth-4 phosphate, water, phenoxyethanol

My favorite make up remover, it gets the job well done without stinging my eyes or staying oily. I always repurchase this one, it's my favorite.
