Ultimate Cleansing Oil

I used to use this cleansing oil for many years. Since the Japanese were the first to create water soluble cleansing oils they have excelled in them for many years. This is one of the key cult classics on the market next to DHC and SK-II's Treatment cleansing oil. I no longer buy this product as there are now more affordable options on the market that cleanse just as well if not better …Read more

This product is replaced with the Perfect Cleansing Oil. This is basically the same product in new packaging.

An excellent and exceptionally mild cleanser that will not strip the skin for precious moisture. It will leave the skin fully …Read more

I love cleansing oils to remove my eye make-up and although this Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil works well for the face (and even body if you will), I would not recommend it for eye make-up removal.

On the face, however, it feels extremely smooth and never leaves skin feeling dry or "tight". There is no greasy residue left either, so if your skin is on a drier side - this …Read more

This is a decent cleansing oil - it gets the job done. It has a better slip than Origins, doesn't contain menthol like Boscia, doesn't leave behind a residue like Juice Beauty, and so on with other oil cleansers I have tried. It removes all my foundation, masacara, and lip gloss. It was about $25 which is the average price of oil cleansers from what I've seen. I am on the fence …Read more

Eh, this stuff is alright. The main ingredient is mineral oil, an ingredient I'm not opposed to, but there are many superior cleansing oils out there that contain natural oils that are beneficial to skin. Other Asian cleansing oils Ive tried feel luxurious and nourishing, but this is basically baby oil. It doesn't hurt my skin, but it doesn't help it either. In other words I …Read more

alright lets start with oil cleansers in general,
YES, buy one try them! they are amazing and effective...
i think this one may be better for a person thats unsure
about oil cleansers, maybe an oil newb so to speak,
because its light and still suds quite a bit however,,,,,
i myself am not into this particular one....basically at all.
sad to say and i feel i wasted …Read more

I've used a few bottles of this because it is effective at removing makeup and sunscreen and it doesn't break out my clog prone skin, however it is drying. Because of the drying factor, I've since moved on to Fancl which I like much better.

I have been hearing about this for years. I finally jumped on the oil cleansing bandwagon, but tried other brands first. I have tried Nude (broke me out), DHC (didn't like how greasy it was) and Josie Maran (absolutely loved it). This for me was an ok product. I think the Josie Maran is defintely better then this and the price point of that one is better. This had a rather odd smell, nothing …Read more

This product made me break out like crazy, which is odd, since my skin rarely breaks out these days.

After searching on the internet, its no surprise that it broke me out, since it primary ingredient i mineral oil.

Ingredients:
Mineral Oil, Cetyl Octanoate, PEG-10 Isostearate, Cyclomethicone, PEG-12 Diisostearate, Water, PEG-8 Diisostearate, Phenyl Trimethicone …Read more

This is my favorite commercial cleansing oil. I prefer this over DHC and Nude (which both caused breakouts for me). I also prefer this over Shu Uemura A/O and A/I, and it is easier to get than Shu in the US. It's great at dislodging debris from your skin (which feels like sand when you're rubbing the oil on your face for a minute or two). It's most similar to Shu's High …Read more
