How is Soothing Cleansing Oil different? The majority of cleansing oils on the market today don’t truly respect or look after acne skins, and contain oils that are comedogenic. These comedogenic oils and ingredients can lead to an increase in breakouts, leaving you feeling absolutely miserable about your skin.
The issue with many brands as well, is that the formulas from a chemistry perspective do not stack up. They don’t contain the right proportions of lipids and often don’t contain any surfactant, which is necessary to remove the oil from the skin so you are not left feeling greasy. Improperly formulation products don’t effective remove makeup as well.
In order for a cleansing oil to remove makeup effectively, they need both polar and non-polar lipids in the formulation. Vegetable oils only have one type of lipid and that is the polar type. They are also comedogenic, which creates more issues than they solve. These polar lipids do not remove waxy residues or waxes effectively. Therefore, they don’t properly deep-clean the skin, leaving dirt and grime behind on your skin.
