Key ingredients
4.3/5
This is a cleansing oil, so the oil is the point. It breaks down makeup and sunscreen so they rinse off instead of sitting in pores.

The Edyt Score
4.4 / 5.0
Targets
4.4/5
A good first cleanse if skin is sensitive or breaks out when makeup stays on too long. If you only wear a light sunscreen, a full oil cleanse may be more than you need.
Formula standards
4.3/5
Starts as an oil, turns milky with water, and should rinse without a film. Take a minute to emulsify or it will feel greasy.
The verdict
Keep it if you wear makeup or sunscreen most days. Skip it if a regular wash already gets everything off.
