The Science Behind Oil Cleansing:

This oil cleanser leverages the "like dissolves like" principle, where the cleansing oils bind to natural skin oils, makeup, and impurities without disrupting the skin's natural balance. By incorporating oils high in linoleic acid, it ensures that the skin is not only cleansed but also receives a boost in essential fatty acids, which are critical for maintaining a healthy skin barrier function.

Addressing Oily and Problematic Skin:

Contrary to common belief, oil cleansing can be profoundly beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin. By removing excess sebum and preventing the formation of congestion, this cleansing oil helps to minimize the appearance of pores and reduce breakouts. It dislodges waxy residues and impurities that can lead to acne, providing a deep clean feeling without compromising the skin's moisture.

A Healthy Approach to Cleansing:

This gentle, fragrance-free cleansing oil offers a refreshing and effective solution to remove makeup and impurities while keeping the skin moisturized and balanced. Perfect for those with oily and problematic skin, it leaves the skin feeling fresh, clean, and not stripped, replenishing essential fatty acids and promoting a balanced barrier function for healthier, more resilient skin.

Core Ingredients and Their Functions:

1. Organic Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil: Extracted from sunflower seeds, this lightweight oil is rich in linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid that helps maintain the skin's natural barrier, supports its ability to retain moisture, and reduces the appearance of fine lines. Its anti-inflammatory properties also make it beneficial for calming irritated skin.

2. Organic Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil: Safflower seed oil is known for its high content of linoleic acid, which not only aids in barrier repair and maintenance but also helps to dissolve "clogs" or comedones, making it particularly effective for oily and acne-prone skin types. This oil is non-comedogenic and assists in rebalancing the skin’s sebum levels, reducing the chances of future breakouts.

3. C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate: A lightweight emollient that gives the cleansing oil its silky texture and spreadability without leaving a greasy residue. It acts as a solvent, enhancing the oil's ability to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and sebum, facilitating easy removal while leaving the skin soft and smooth.

4. Di-PPG-2 Myreth-10 Adipate: An effective emulsifier that helps to mix oil with water, enabling the cleansing oil to be easily rinsed off, ensuring that no oily film is left behind. This ingredient supports the cleansing process, ensuring that debris and impurities are lifted away from the skin’s surface without stripping it of its natural moisture.

5. Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E Acetate): A stable acne safe form of Vitamin E, tocopheryl acetate is known for its antioxidant properties, helping to protect the skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV damage. It also nourishes and moisturizes the skin, promoting healing and reducing inflammation, making it an excellent addition for all skin types, especially those prone to acne or irritation.
