Oil cleansing is the most effective way to remove sunscreen, long-wear makeup and the day’s sebum, because oil dissolves oil in a way that foaming cleansers cannot. The objection people raise is greasiness, and this formula answers it — jojoba has one of the best absorption rates of any botanical oil, so it lifts and rinses rather than lingering.
Eminence also position this one for men: it softens beard hair and works as a shave preparation.
Who it suits
All skin types. Essential if you wear mineral SPF daily, since zinc-based sunscreens do not come off properly with a water-based cleanser alone.
What is in it, and why
- Jojoba oil — supports and hydrates with one of the best absorption rates
- Sunflower oil — rich in vitamins A, D and E; protects and soothes dry skin
- Detoxifying Microgreens Complex — protects against environmental stressors
- Stone crop — hydrates and brightens the look of skin tone
How to use it
Massage onto dry skin, including over makeup and SPF, then add water to emulsify and rinse. Follow with a water-based cleanser if you want a full double cleanse.
What to pair it with
Follow with the Kombucha Foaming Cleanser or Stone Crop Gel Wash as a second cleanse. Browse Cleansers, Toners & Mists and Moisturizers.
