DHC Deep Cleansing Oil 200ml

Very good product, very suitable to aged dry skin. I tried several different japanese/korean brands, this cleanser is most suitable for me. Will purchase again when finished.

My skin: I have very annoying skin. Having sailed through teenage-hood spot free, the universe has reaped its revenge in my twenties by giving me deep, painful chin spots (probably hormonal), and also spots on my cheeks that lurk beneath the surface, never quite reaching a whitehead but also never quite going away. My skin isn't particularly dry or particularly oily, although I do have big pores and blackheads on my nose. Also, I'm very pale, so blemishes really show up. My gosh, reading this, I don't know how I even leave the house.This product: I bought this on the strength of the reviews. Firstly, it's very lovely to use. I use it on my face (not eyes), and gently massage it in. It really feels soft and nice, and it a relaxing thing to do before going to bed. It washes off with water as a nice milky liquid. Afterwards, my face feels very clean, without that awful drying feeling some face washes give you. I do however use another facewash straight afterwards, as I think the instructions (and some other reviewers) recommend.I'm pretty convinced that this is working well, as my skin has been nice for the two weeks I've been using it. It hasn't gotten rid of the blackheads, but they do seem reduced, and I've not had any breakouts (which often happens to me with oily products). Also, the bottle is very big and you don't need more than one pump per use, so it seems well worth the price. My skin feels nice - not dry, not oily. I like it a lot and think I'll keep using it.

I'm getting a big laugh out of how many reviewers bought this after discovering a sample in the back of their cupboard that had probably been there for years -- me too! I had been trying a number of oil and melting balm type cleansers for makeup removal because, while I do like micellar water (I use Bioderma Sensibio) I don't like the waste generated by the cotton pads, and it does take a lot of grunt work to remove waterproof makeup with it.This product beats everything else out of the park. Not only is it better at removing waterproof makeup than any other product I've tried, it has no fragrance and washes away completely clean while still feeling like it isn't stripping my skin. I was shocked -- a one-step oil cleanser!? I'd always been forced to dual cleanse by any makeup removing product that wasn't a micellar water. I also have normal to oily skin with acne that wasn't under control when I first tested this product, and it did not cause me to break out like the majority of cleansers did. It doesn't even bother my eyes, which every other oil/balm type cleanser has been a real nuisance about when removing mascara and eyeliner. And because products without water have no pH, you don't have to worry about the skin-stripping effects of a high pH cleanser. As a product, it's basically as perfect as perfect could be -- I cannot even conceive of a way a cleanser could better suit my needs. My only complaint is the price. The ingredients are cheap as chips, so it feels like there's some unwarranted markup. But it IS cheaper than many of the alternatives (looking at you shu uemura), and you can buy small sample-sized bottles first, which I so appreciate. So why not give it a try? Or, just look in the back of your cupboard -- you probably have a sample there too hahaha.Products I tried that didn't live up to this one include all of shu uemura's various cleansing oils from one of their sample sets (none of them washed away very cleanly and felt greasy, very minor brekaouts), NIOD's low viscosity cleansing ester (works okay, although not fragranced has an odd odour and doesn't rinse off even a little bit, forcing you to use another face wash to remove it, does leave skin moisturized because you really can't seem to wash it all off, caused breakouts) botanic farms grain ferment cleansing sherbert (works well and washes cleanly but heavily fragranced and hard to purchase from the UK, did not cause breakouts). I also tried Clinique's take the day off makeup remover, which was good at removing waterproof makeup but I really hated using because of the greasy silicone film it leaves behind (used only on eye area so breakout effect unknown).

I don't know how I lived for so long without this. Best makeup and specifically mascara removal I've ever used. I'm so happy with my purchase. I would definitely repurchase it.

It’s ok does the job. I don’t like the smell though.

Beautiful cleanser very happy with it

Love this product and will definitely re-purchase. Wish I’d bought it sooner.

So I’ve been using this product since few months now, I wanted to try it before I leave a review. I use it to take my make up off and wow it is so much better than wipes. You only need a small amount size of a 5p and it goes along way. I use a waterproof mascara and it worked wounders on that to take it off. It starts off with being greasy and you rub it’s all over your face in slow motion and when you go to wash it with a desired face wash it literally comes off like the grease is non existent. It leaves my skin really fresh and soft I wipe my face after with a cotton pad and micellar cleaning water you can’t see any dirt or makeup because the DHC does all the cleaning. Definitely recommended! I have Asian skin and it’s very dry so it’s good for this type of skin
