So! I never used any makeup until a month ago. Yes, I’m a newbie! *confetti!*
And now I’m using makeup, of course I need something to take it off at the end of the day, yes?
I tried baby oil. OH MY the greasiness. I sweared I will never use anything that has the word “oil” in it for face cleaing.
Then I found B&C AHA Cleansing Oil. With the raving reviews on sasa.com, I just have to give it a try.

It feels more like a gel, rather than oil. +++++1!
I painted a hand puppet!

Hand primed with Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer. Face drawn with Fullaura super thin eyebrow pen, NYX Lime pearl eye shimmer, H2O blush, Body Shop lip tint.

Rub a little bit on, makeup started to melt.

… and then gone!

Rinsed with water. Like new! It takes off waterproof mascara no problem.
I have dry and sensitive skin. While it doesn’t feel mositurizing, I don’t feel it’s drying. Since it is not greasy, it is very easy to clean off with water. And the apple scent is very refreshing!
You don’t need to use a lot. But I find for a small bottle (145ml), $10 is quite expensive. And while it does a good job cleaning out eye makeup, it stings my eyes a bit.
Overall, it’s a very good cleansing oil, but when this bottle is done, I’ll probably try something else because of the price.
Whoa, you used baby oil?! LMAO! I guess cleansing oil would be better for you since you’ve got dry skin! Heh, I just realized that both of us have the opposite skin types (I’m oily!)!
Your hand puppet is absolutely precious and a brilliant way to display how this cleansing oil removes makeup effectively!
So glad you commented today and it is great to see your site!
i am using the cleansing water by mandom
u gotta try it
its my HG now
lol that hand puppet is sooo cutely drawn!
ps I’ve been checking out your other posts..and I have to say that I am sooo jealous of some of your buys! Such great deals! Plus getting posh brushes for free always rocks
I’ve tried some cleansing oils:
- Kose Seikisho Perfect Cleansing Oil – very good but not cheap (US$28)
- Shiseido Perfect Oil – light and powerful. Best of all, it’s much more affordable
- DHC Deep Cleansing Oil – heavier doesn’t smell as nice as Shiseido (see comparison here: http://www.lipglossiping.com/2009/08/06/dhc-deep-cleansing-oil-vs-shiseido-perfect-oil/)
