This Cleanser Is Magic
If you thought all cleansers were the same, we’re here to say that is 100% not the case. Usually we come across a gel or a cream-based cleanser to wash away the days’ gunk from our face. But would you ever put more oil on your face to clean it? It’s not as crazy as it sounds - before the advent of bathing, ancient Greeks and Romans would use an olive oil lather and scrape it off with a strigil. DHC is a Japanese brand and its Deep Cleansing Oil is its bestselling, cult-classic that is a 100% organic olive-oil based formulation that promises to melt away makeup so you know this stuff its powerful (and yet it doesn’t smell clinical, sting, burn, or strip away your skin leaving it dry and flaky - what magic is this?!).
Rather than wetting your face first, apply the Deep Cleaning Oil with dry hands to your face. Yes, it’s trippy to add oil to whatever is already on your face without that normal feeling of a foaming lather, but the unexpected benefit is more control instead of slippery fingers, meaning you can really work the product into your skin.
Once you’ve covered your face in this golden goodness, rinse with water and watch it effortlessly break down sunscreen and sebum without clogging your pores. The water-soluble formula rinses away with zero oily residue, not to mention that the botanical formulation features antioxidant-rich organic olive oil and vitamin E to hydrate, soften and protect, with rosemary leaf oil to invigorate and refresh. Your skin will feel clean with a capital ‘c’ without being dried out. This stuff is one of our favorite products of the year so far. It’s a buy.
