Hitting beauty counters with high impact are oil cleansers,
which are essentially oils that are meant to clean your face. You heard right! No longer are we supposed to
pine for the bubbling foaming delightfulness that our traditional cleansers
bring us, we are to look to the oil to clean our precious faces. My FAVORITE on the market right now is Josie
Maran’s Cleansing Oil, found here: Josie
Maran Cleansing Oil . I love all of her products because of their
key ingredient: Argan Oil, more on that in my other blog post here: My Face My
Argan. It also contains other oils
that are beneficial to the skin, such as grape seed and olive oils that have a
high Vitamin E content, perfect for anti-aging and hydration and grapefruit
seed oil, which also contributes to its light citrus scent, perfect for morning
face washing! The key to cleansing oils
is that you are not stripping your face of your natural oils, so it is great
for all skin types. Yes even oily skin types, like me, can
benefit from cleansing oils. By washing
your face with the oil, you are sealing in all the moisture, thus not forcing
your skin’s oil glands to produce an excess amount of oil, makes sense right?
You will not, and I mean not,
experience the suds and bubbles you get with your traditional face wash, so it
will take time to get used to, you may get a slight milky emulsification, but
trust that after your first use you will be hooked! When looking for a facial oil that’s right
for you try to find one that has as little additives as possible, like Josie
Maran’s, which only has 2 chemical additives for preservation because most oils
used have a short shelf life. Be sure
that you don’t have nut allergies as often companies will use nut oils as their
main oil ingredient, so read the labels!
I hope you love cleansing oils as much as I do!
