ma:nyo Pure Cleansing Oil 6.7 fl oz (200ml) Daily Makeup Remover & Blackhead melting with 14 Plant-Based Oils | Suitable for All Skin Types | Korean Skincare

I stumbled upon Manyo Factory's Pure Cleansing Oil entirely by accident - there was a mini size bottle of it for guests to use at a really nice AirBnb I stayed at a while ago, along with various Korean face masks. I was hesitant to use it at first, as I had never used a cleansing oil before and was afraid it would make my highly sensitive combination skin break out, as roughly 75% or more of products that I've tried tend to do. But halfway through our stay, I decided to give it a go. It felt so nice to use that I used it again the next few nights, and noticing no breakouts, I took the plunge and ordered the full size.I've used all kinds of products to clean off makeup, including facial wipes, micellar water, and cleansing milk. But since using this cleansing oil, I don't feel like I would go back to those other methods.What I love about Manyo Factory's cleansing oil is that it takes makeup off so much more thoroughly than any of the other aforementioned methods and still leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated - not stripped and still somewhat unclean, like makeup wipes tend to do (though they are definitely the best "lazy" method). It also has a light citrus scent that's very pleasant yet not overwhelming. Despite having sensitive eyes that sting with a lot of makeup removers and cleansers, my eyes have never stung when using this cleansing oil to remove eyeshadow, eyeliner, and foundation - but admittedly, I have never tried to use it to remove mascara. My mascara is waterproof, so I still use a waterproof eye makeup remover on a cotton pad if I happen to be wearing mascara. I'm not sure if the cleansing oil would remove it just fine, but I don't enjoy the idea of having to rub the oil into my lashes and wash them off that way (personal preference).Also, as mentioned, this oil does not make me break out AT ALL, which is always amazing, given how sensitive my skin is. If anything, it has helped to improve my skin because using the cleansing oil in a double cleanse skinscare routine for makeup removal seems to cleanse my skin more thoroughly while still keeping it sufficiently hydrated. I usually follow the cleansing oil with my regular cleanser, but on days when I am makeup free and don't double cleanse, I have experimented using Manyo Factory's Cleansing Oil as my only cleanser, and it also works really nicely that way.Since Manyo Factory turned me on to cleansing oils, I have tried a few others, including ones from my favorite high-end clean beauty brands. But to be honest, this Manyo Factory one is superior to anything else I have tried, so I'll be sticking to it.If using a cleansing oil for the first time, I highly recommend doing some online reasearch on the best methods/instructions. It's slightly different from using a cleanser and doing research before I started using cleansing oils helped me avoid mistakes.

I originally bought this cleanser on a trip in Korea, and I am so glad I did! I have combination skin so always using a really strong cleanser just doesn’t work for my skin type. I absolutely love this stuff. It melts off your make up in one go, and it is the perfect morning cleanser to wipe off all the oils we build up and any leftover skin care. I have noticed a difference in my blackheads on my nose, which is my main problem area. I wouldn’t say it really cleans them out, but in between facials and extractions it for sure keeps them at bay and delays that buildup of sebum. I have tried a a few other oil cleansers and so far this is my favorite!

I highly recommend this product. It melts into your skin and really makes you feel like you are getting all the dirt off of your skin. Yes it does also work as a good makeup remover when removing. My skin feels very soft and clean after using this for a week.

Worked really well with my skin that normally gets really dry. It’s like a good base cleaner before my heavy duty cleaner. If I use just my second cleaner my face gets very dry and flakey. This works great to make my skin smooth

this is the best oil cleanser. no chemical smell and leave skin soft and clean, not dry as other oil cleanser ive used

Please read this if you have dry skin!While visiting Japan, I went to a Korean skincare salon in Asakusa. This (ma:nyo pure cleansing oil) was what was offered as one of the products to cleanse my skin with prior to the facial I had done. After using it, my skin felt far more hydrated and not oily whatsoever. I don't wear makeup so I can't attest to its makeup removability, but my skin felt very clean and refreshed. When I returned home, I bought it immediately and have been using it ever since.Since this is an oil-based cleanser, you must emulsify it. Start by applying the oil cleanser to a dry face. Gently massage your face with the oil, ensuring you get in the creases at the sides of your nose and your hairline. It is smooth and glides well on the skin. Then, wet your hands and continue massaging gently. You will notice that the oil cleanser turns from a clear, golden color into a milky liquid. Continue adding water as needed. Then, wash it off your face completely. Take your time! It is a good practice to double cleanse with a non-oil based cleanser afterward. This also ensures that no oil is left behind. (Please note it has an herbal, spa-like scent). If you have dry skin like me, I highly recommend this product!

Update 3 (8/8/24). Check out Costco. That is all.2nd update: I'm on my second bottle. Really love this stuff.I've been using this for a month or so now. It replaces the oil cleanse method that I used to clean my face, and I've been doing that for years. It works very well. I'm 70 years old. If I add even the gentlest facial soap cleanser over that oil, after I rinse it out, a day at two later I'll start to purge and see pimples. So my skin is really balanced with the oil cleansing method. I made my own mix until I started using an oil meant for hair (from Innersense Organics). It is so light and full of great natural oils that are also good for skin, but that stuff is expensive. So I looked for something with the most natural ingredients, oils that I know contribute to my skin health, not too scented and not loaded with surfactants. This looked to be the best. And it is!In terms of performance, It's two products in one. I can rub it on dry skin over makeup, add a little water and massage, rinse off with water, then pat with a warm washcloth — and my skin is clean. No makeup left. And my skin isn't stripped, which at 70 is very easy to do. I moisturize with skin flooding method (four moisturizers) which gives you an idea of the moisture I need. Face is t-zone to dry.
