Balancing & Purifying Face Cleansing Oil

For all Skin Types
also available FRAGRANCE FREE (without essential / aromatherapy oils)

Key Ingredients: Jojoba Oil, Hemp Seed Oil, Apricot, Coconut Oil, Essential Oils

Our Balancing & Purifying Face Cleansing Oil, when gently massaged into the skin, will bind to surface impurities, pulling out dirt without clogging pores and allows them to be comfortably wiped away leaving the skin wonderfully clean, soft and hydrated with a dewy glow. This botanical cleansing oil mixture will also help your skin to keep its natural, healthy pH balance.

What happens when you wash your face with foaming facial cleansers? Because foaming cleansers are rather harsh on your skin most of the time and contain SLS's to produce big lather, they strip your skin of its natural oils and can cause skin irritation. Admittedly your skin will feel very clean but maybe also very tight and dry. Your skin will stress and try to repair itself.

It is possible to escape this cycle by using the Oil Cleansing Method. You will have fewer, if any, breakouts, and your skin won’t feel dry or stretched because its natural protective oils remain. It might seem counter-intuitive, but oil dissolves other oil; by massaging it into the skin, the cleansing oil loosens the ‘bad’ oil that has hardened and lodged in the pores and reveal beautiful clean skin.

Our Cleansing Oil is ideal for hot cloth cleansing with the Washi! Cotton Hot Cloths.

DIRECTIONS

1) Warm a few drops of cleanser between your hands and apply to cheeks, forehead, nose and chin

2) Spread the cleanser in small circular motions from the chin towards the ears

3) Place your fingers on the inner corners of your eyes and spread cleanser over cheeks towards temples in upward movements

4) Massage cleanser with fingers from tip of nose to the bridge, to the forehead, gently cleanse both sides of nose

5) Don’t forget to work the cleanser in around the mouth

6) Spread cleanser outward from the middle of the forehead in little circular motions

7) Place a warm, damp soft Cotton Cloth (or our Washi! Hot Cloth) on your face for about 1 minute (this will open your pores and prepare for the next step to remove even more build up). Remove the cleanser with the same Cotton Cloth.

INGREDIENT PROFILES

Hemp Seed Oil is a lovely addition to any Serum and Face Oil since it adds anti-inflammatory properties and a drier feel to the product, it helps retain moisture and reduces skin itchiness. A good balance of Omega-6 and Omega-3 essential fatty acids protects against cellular damage.
Jojoba Oil, traditionally held in high regard by Native Americans in the Sonora Desert to treat skin conditions, sores, cuts, bruises and burns, is as a vital ingredient in this formulation. It is of non-greasy consistency, regulates the flow of sebum, guards against skin imbalances and can tone and significantly soften your skin by reducing transepidermal water loss.
Apricot Kernel Oil is an oil with a light, soft touch. It has excellent nourishing, revitalising and anti-inflammatory properties. A generous Vitamin E content provides free radical protection from oxidation.

Beautiful cleansers *

Thursday, 22 June 2017 | Loraine

These are wonderful quality and fab for my dry, menopausal and eczema prone skin. Although they are available without fragrance, I tolerate natural fragrance well normally and have had no issues. They smell wonderful incidentally. Natural plant oils work well on my skin. They are well packaged and nicely presented too. In all I highly recommend these items.

Love love love the Cleansing Oil

Friday, 16 September 2016 | Cher

Love love love the cleansing oil, I've tried others a few times when I've left it too late and ran out but always come back as nothing compares so have learned my lesson to stick with what works. The new refill bottle makes it easier not to run out, I asked and it appeared on the website within hours, fantastic customer service.
Lin has always been great for advice, super helpful and personable which you don't get from the big brands. Been a customer for a long time and will continue to be.

Facial cleansing oil

Friday, 22 July 2016 | Cher

I love this cleansing oil, I used it years ago and changed but came back as nothing really compares to it. Does a great job of taking off make up, cleansing the skin and leaving it soft but not sticky, leaves my skin looking great. The only downside is that the packaging is lovely for a first order but I'd rather be able to buy a refill bottle at a lower cost without the pump and gift packaging for subsequent purchases.

Thanks so much for your great feedback Cher! I am so happy to hear that you have come back to our Cleansing Oil! I have taken your idea on board and I am offering now a 100ml refill bottle at a reduced price :-) xx

i have used many cleansers for my face but have to say this is the best i have ever used. combined with the cloth to remove the oil my skin felt so clean and looked so vibrant my friends all noticed. after using a muslin cloth for quite a few years i found the towel so much better. the day moisturiser was light and just glided in to my skin and smelt lovely and fresh. i am going to be using these products for a very long time and so glad i found them. thank you Gerlinde for making such lovely products they are a credit to you.

Gorgeous cleanser!

This cleanser is the Bees knees of any cleanser I have tried.and I have tried loads., it glides on face effortless and is brilliant for doing a little face massage which I love doing. Then the beautiful little cloths gently wipes away all traces of make up leaving the most smoothest soft skin ever. I truly love it, anyone with oily ski need never be afraid to use this beautiful cleanser with a lovely fresh subtle scent !!

I would just like to say how pleased I am with my orders from Gerlinde. The Face Cleansing Oil along with the 'Washi' cloth is just wonderful.
Remember, all these gorgeous products are not mass produced......they are all individually prepared by hand with love in a lovely studio by Gerlinde.

Really gentle yet effective

Love this cleanser. I would never have picked oil having suffered from acne but tried this on Gerlindes advice. So glad I did! Removes make up so well. I follow with honey toner and my skin feels amazing. I'm sure it's also going to help me looking young as I'm not over drying my skin anymore and making my spots worse!

Kind to sensitive skin

Michelle Buckley from Banstead, Surrey United Kingdom
I have been using the cleansing oil for 2wks. Now and am so impressed with the the fact that although my make up is removed so well, I use mineral make up and I am quite generous with how much I put on to protect my skin yet I have no redness after cleansing.The oil feel so wonderful & soothing when I apply it at the end of of the day I look forward to using it and as with aromatherapy oils the smell is very delicate, not at all overpowering as some higher end cleansers can be.
