What is oil cleansing?

Cleansing your face with non-comedogenic (non-pore clogging) oils is excellent for most skin types as it does not strip your skin of natural oils, or force it to overproduce oils to overcompensate for harsh cleansers.

How does oil cleansing work?

It works by dissolving the dirt and impurities on your skin without stripping away your skin’s natural moisture. It is often incorporated into a double-cleansing routine to remove makeup, or simply as the sole cleansing method. Either way, all you need is oil and a clean, soft washcloth

What is oil cleansing?

Cleansing your face with non-comedogenic (non-pore clogging) oils is excellent for most skin types as it does not strip your skin of natural oils, or force it to overproduce oils to overcompensate for harsh cleansers..

How does oil cleansing work?

It works by dissolving the dirt and impurities on your skin without stripping away your skin’s natural moisture. It is often incorporated into a double-cleansing routine to remove makeup, or simply as the sole cleansing method. Either way, all you need is oil and a clean, soft washcloth.

How do I use cleansing oil?

Before cleansing your face, ALWAYS wash your hands with soap and water. To oil cleanse your face, take a few drops of your oil or oil blend of choice, warm it in your hands by rubbing them together, and then apply liberally over your face and neck. Don’t be afraid of gently working it into your lashes and eyelids, oils are magic at dissolving eye makeup and mascara without a trace. I also enjoy taking the time to massage the stress out of my face muscles and take a moment to myself to concentrate on breathing and relaxing. Work the oil over every part of your face, let it sit for a minute, and gently rinse off with warm water and a washcloth. Your face should feel clear and smooth, but not tight like with traditional face washes.

Can you use cleansing oil every day?

Yes! Although I recommend it mostly at night to fully cleanse your skin of impurities before bed. If you wear makeup, I suggest either double cleansing with oil, or using a gentle makeup remover (like micellar water) before oil cleansing. Is oil cleanser okay for oily skin or acne? Absolutely! A cleansing oil can reduce the amount of sebum produced by your skin as it doesn’t strip away the natural oils and moisture like many cleaners. It can also be beneficial for those battling acne or breakouts for the same reasons.

Can cleansing oil cause breakouts?

Anything can cause breakouts if you change routines or your skin is not familiar with a new product. Overall, if you remove your oil cleanser thoroughly with warm water and a clean washcloth, you should not experience more breakouts from an oil cleanser. Oil cleansers can be great for people prone to breakouts or with oily skin as they do not strip the dermis of natural oils meaning your skin does not overproduce oil to compensate.

Pauley said: Perfect Especially for Cold Weather

I had allowed myself to run out of this cleanser several months ago, and I recently found myself getting too dry after cleansing with a different product with the colder months upon us. Immediately I recalled how this cleanser never left me greasy, but instead prevented me from getting too dry any time of year - especially in the cold months. I especially like using this with the muslin cloths. Very happy to have this back in my life!

Gisele said: High quality oil cleanser

I first wanted to highlight the beautiful woman behind Ginger Chi, I met her in her store and she has an aura of positiveness. I’m delighted by my purchases (i also took the Jade roll-on) and really recommend. I’m from Brussels and this was a nice discovery, I will come back when back to the city.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to send us your feedback! We really appreciate it. We are glad you came into the shop and we got to meet you!

SUZANNE S said: Love!

I have very sensitive skin that reacts to nearly everything i try. I was not confident that this product would be suitable for my cranky skin, so i bought the small bottle just in case. I do regret that, because i really love this product!! It smells wonderful and leaves my skin glowing and feeling soft and fresh. I have had no adverse reaction whatsoever....no splotches, no breakouts, no itching! Just wonderful!!

Thanks so much for the fantastic review, Suzanne. We really appreciate it. Great to hear how you are enjoying the Purifying Cleanser! It's one of our faves too!

Angelica Becerra said: Love this cleanser....

I first bought this a while ago, and loved it.... But decided to try other brands just to be sure... Well....I'm back. It leaves your skin clean, soft, no dryness. And it removes all your make up easy. I use it with a muslin cloth and remove it with warm water, and it's all you need. My eyes can get very sensitive with other cleansers, but with this. no problems. Definitely worth it. Try it, you won't regret it.

Thank you for your review Angelica, we are happy to hear are enjoying our products!

Jacqueline Lindmark said: Purifying Face Oil Cleanser

I decided to order the full size after trying a sample. I use it with the muslin face cloth and I love how my face feels clean and soft but not dried out. I find most face washes leave my skin feeling dry after so I find myself applying a lot of moisturizer after but not with this face cleaner.

Tara said: Very happy with the face cleanser!

This is my first time trying an oil face cleanser and I wasn't sure what to expect. I was very happy to find it removed all my makeup and left my face so incredibly soft, not oily at all and I have combination skin. I use the cleanser with the Muslin face cloth which give your face a gentle exfoliating. I will definitely be repurchasing these products!

Nicole Schechter said: Love this face cleanser

This is by far the best face cleanser that I have ever used. I have combination skin and cleansers typically break me out or cause dry flaky skin. This removes my make up and levels my skin soft but not greasy.

Helene Taito-Jensen said: Amazing cleanser!

This cleanser is absolutely AMAZING! It will give you the same benefits as cleansing oils do, but somehow it just feels better and more pure. I don't know how they do it at Ginger Chi, but somehow this cleansing oil outperforms any other I have tried. It is so good that I buy it and have it sent all the way to New Zealand. And the costumer service is always really good!

Fernanda Giacomelli said: The best cleanser to remove mascara!

I normally use the micellar water to remove my make up,however, it is ineffective to remove mascara. So I found that ginger chi did a great job removing all of them, not leaving a trace of pigment.
