Oil Cleansing Oil

Great as a makeup remover!

Like everything in nature, our skin craves balance. It produces its own oil called sebum, but indoor and outdoor weather, over-use of cosmetics or cleansers, diet or unknown allergies, or other factors can throw it off balance, causing it to dry out or look greasy. When skin dries out, the obvious choice is to moisturize, but when skin looks greasy, the common response is to increase washing and scrubbing. This can throw it more off-balance, creating greater sebum production, causing it to look greasy, and the cycle repeats.

Many people find success in using the oil cleansing method for their skin, instead of harsh cleansers. It is easy to do, takes just a few minutes.

Directions:

• For deep cleansing: Prepare skin by steaming or moistening with a warm, damp washcloth. Massage 1-2 pumps of oil cleansing oil onto face and neck until saturated. Remove with warm, damp washcloth and rinse several times.
• For quick cleansing: Moisten a clean cotton pad with water, then add 1/2-1 pump oil cleansing oil. Use oiled pad to gently cleanse face and neck. Remove oil with fresh cotton pad moistened with water. Repeat if necessary. This method may be used to remove eye makeup. We carry some great reusable cotton rounds here!
