MANYO FACTORY Pure Cleansing Oil 6.7 fl oz (200ml) Korean Facial Cleanser, Blackhead Melting, Daily Makeup Removal with Argan Oil, for Women

I stumbled upon Manyo Factory's Pure Cleansing Oil entirely by accident - there was a mini size bottle of it for guests to use at a really nice AirBnb I stayed at a while ago, along with various Korean face masks. I was hesitant to use it at first, as I had never used a cleansing oil before and was afraid it would make my highly sensitive combination skin break out, as roughly 75% or more of products that I've tried tend to do. But halfway through our stay, I decided to give it a go. It felt so nice to use that I used it again the next few nights, and noticing no breakouts, I took the plunge and ordered the full size.I've used all kinds of products to clean off makeup, including facial wipes, micellar water, and cleansing milk. But since using this cleansing oil, I don't feel like I would go back to those other methods.What I love about Manyo Factory's cleansing oil is that it takes makeup off so much more thoroughly than any of the other aforementioned methods and still leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated - not stripped and still somewhat unclean, like makeup wipes tend to do (though they are definitely the best "lazy" method). It also has a light citrus scent that's very pleasant yet not overwhelming. Despite having sensitive eyes that sting with a lot of makeup removers and cleansers, my eyes have never stung when using this cleansing oil to remove eyeshadow, eyeliner, and foundation - but admittedly, I have never tried to use it to remove mascara. My mascara is waterproof, so I still use a waterproof eye makeup remover on a cotton pad if I happen to be wearing mascara. I'm not sure if the cleansing oil would remove it just fine, but I don't enjoy the idea of having to rub the oil into my lashes and wash them off that way (personal preference).Also, as mentioned, this oil does not make me break out AT ALL, which is always amazing, given how sensitive my skin is. If anything, it has helped to improve my skin because using the cleansing oil in a double cleanse skinscare routine for makeup removal seems to cleanse my skin more thoroughly while still keeping it sufficiently hydrated. I usually follow the cleansing oil with my regular cleanser, but on days when I am makeup free and don't double cleanse, I have experimented using Manyo Factory's Cleansing Oil as my only cleanser, and it also works really nicely that way.Since Manyo Factory turned me on to cleansing oils, I have tried a few others, including ones from my favorite high-end clean beauty brands. But to be honest, this Manyo Factory one is superior to anything else I have tried, so I'll be sticking to it.If using a cleansing oil for the first time, I highly recommend doing some online reasearch on the best methods/instructions. It's slightly different from using a cleanser and doing research before I started using cleansing oils helped me avoid mistakes.

Update 3 (8/8/24). Check out Costco. That is all.2nd update: I'm on my second bottle. Really love this stuff.I've been using this for a month or so now. It replaces the oil cleanse method that I used to clean my face, and I've been doing that for years. It works very well. I'm 70 years old. If I add even the gentlest facial soap cleanser over that oil, after I rinse it out, a day at two later I'll start to purge and see pimples. So my skin is really balanced with the oil cleansing method. I made my own mix until I started using an oil meant for hair (from Innersense Organics). It is so light and full of great natural oils that are also good for skin, but that stuff is expensive. So I looked for something with the most natural ingredients, oils that I know contribute to my skin health, not too scented and not loaded with surfactants. This looked to be the best. And it is!In terms of performance, It's two products in one. I can rub it on dry skin over makeup, add a little water and massage, rinse off with water, then pat with a warm washcloth — and my skin is clean. No makeup left. And my skin isn't stripped, which at 70 is very easy to do. I moisturize with skin flooding method (four moisturizers) which gives you an idea of the moisture I need. Face is t-zone to dry.

This Manyo Cleansing Oil effectively removes impurities using Argan kernel oil and 14 plant-derived oils. I have been using this cleansing oil for the past week after ordering it a week ago. I can confidently say that I genuinely enjoy it. Its simplicity is noteworthy; simply apply a couple pumps into your palm and massage the oil onto your dry face in a circular motion for approximately one minute. Subsequently, lightly add water to your hand and massage it over your face for another minute. Finally, rinse off. The result is exceptionally soft and clean skin, effectively removing all makeup, including eye makeup. Having been using a different brand of makeup cleanser for several years, I felt compelled to make a change. I am delighted with the decision I made.

I enjoy the smell and it helps my skin feel good. I think it makes me break out a little more, not sure if it’s just because my skin isn’t used to the formula or another reason. It seems to clean my makeup off good. Sometimes I don’t put on extra moisturizer after using it because it already does a good job of that.

I really liked the consistency of this product. My holy grail oil cleaner is the DHC olive oil because it is thick and feels like it really removes a lot of dirt form pores. I typically don't like thin oils because it feels like it is less effective, but the ma:nyo oil is light but spreads over my face soo silky. I've never had an oil that spread so easily. It washes off cleanly without stripping natural oils. I use a gel cleanser after this to remove the rest of the oil. It smells like rosemary and lavender. I would recommend this oil after using it.

As an acne-prone person finding a good oil-based cleanser has been difficult. This is my favorite one by far! It’s light, it smells delightful but not strong at all, I love the pump bottle for hygiene, it removes makeup, spf, and dirt flawlessly. It leaves the skin moisturized but not oily. Only good things to say about this product
