This product has been on my radar for a long time! My trip last year to Asia finally pushed me to bring it back home for keeps!
I won't go into what cleansing oils are since most of you will already know. This oil has far exceeded my expectations and if it weren't so frickin expensive per ounce I would be definitely stocking up on this.
The gel-like, thick formula is AWESOME! It:
- cleans off all makeup! even waterproof mascara!
- does NOT leave a film on my face after rinsing
- did not break me out
- does not have preservative nor mineral oils (unlike the Shu one)
Now, here's the bad news
Let's just do a price comparison of some high end hyped Asian cleansing oils (these are Sasa's prices fyi):
DHC ($36/200ml) = $0.18/ml
Shu Uemura Fresh Pore ($35/150ml) = $0.23/ml
Fancl ($35/120ml) = $0.30/ml
Fancl ($35/120ml) = $0.30/ml
WHY FANCL, WHY????
LOL.
The bottle has lasted me a good while but dropping $30-40 on oil cleansers still kills me a little inside, especially when this is the most expensive product per ounce I have tried. BUT, I can't deny that this has been the best performing so far. I guess I should be happy that my money is actually going to something that performs well......
Have you tried this oil cleaner? Any suggestions for which one I should try next? (I've been eyeing Clinique's balm cleansers)
