    • Gently rub the oil into the skin for about 30 seconds – 1 minute using a soft silicone exfoliating pad.
    • Finish by washing face with Shiseido Benefiance Extra Creamy Cleansing Foam and warm water.

First time using cleansing oil?

It’s quite simple and there’s only a few things to keep in mind:

  1. Apply cleansing oils to dry skin!
    • Oil cleansers work by dissolving other oils! This is why oil cleansers are amazing at removing stubborn oil-based makeup and waterproof sunscreen.
    • Water and oil doesn’t mix, so if the skin is wet, the water prevents the cleansing oil from dissolving the oils on the skin.
  2. Double cleanse with facial soap.
    • Remember, cleansing oils remove stubborn oil based makeup and sunscreen.
    • It’s important to use facial soap to wash away the cleansing oil and all the impurities that the oil removed from the skin!
    • If this oil isn’t washed off, it can cause the skin to react and start breaking out!

    DHC Deep Cleansing Oil skincare product review

    After using this cleansing oil for 30 days, we noticed some things that might help you decide if DHC Deep Cleansing Oil is a good addition to your own skincare routine:


    Can I use oil cleansing to take off sunscreen and stubborn makeup?

    Yes! If washing with soap and water left you skin feeling “not completely clean”, double cleans with cleansing oils first.

    The oils lifts certain skincare ingredients away from the skin, allowing soap and water to effectively wash away stubborn skincare products.

    Also, try using cleansing oils to clean your makeup brushes.

    How long is DHC Deep Cleansing Oil good to use for?

    DHC recommends that you use this product within 6 months after opening.

    Just like cooking oils, cleansing oils eventually go rancid as well!

    When I’m applying cleansing oils, I notice something “gritty” in the oil. Is there something wrong with my cleansing oil?

    That “grittiness” is actually the hard blackheads and impurities being exfoliated from the skin!
    (See photo below of a large blackhead removed by oil cleansing.)

    DHC Deep Cleansing Oil isn’t greasy or thick at all and washes off easily with a facial cleanser.

    Does this cleansing oil have any fragrance or any particular bad smell?

    No, this cleansing oil has a neutral, clean scent.
    If you notice a sour smell, the cleansing oil might have oxidized.

    Any final tips on how to use DHC Deep Cleansing Oil?

    Remember to spot test as oil cleansing might not be for everybody.

    Also, avoid getting the oil in your eyes because it strings!
