One of the best makeup cleansing oils I’ve ever used! I’ve always preferred oil to milk formulas, especially for removing makeup as my first cleanse, and I’ve never really been a fan of non emulsifying oil cleansers. This has completely changed my mind. It removes makeup, especially eye makeup, like no other. There’s no dragging or irritation around my eye area, no stinging, and it removes everything beautifully without leaving my skin feeling stripped. Instead, it leaves my skin with a lovely natural glow. It’s a game changer for makeup removal and is especially lovely when my skin is feeling a little sensitive. I use it with a soft bamboo cloth soaked in warm water and gently wrung out to remove everything, and it really does take makeup off like a dream, leaving me ready to go in with my second gel cleanser. If I’m tired or feeling lazy, I can easily skip my second cleanse and just use this on its own, especially as it leaves my skin looking so fresh and glowing afterwards. I also love the choice of oils in the formula, which don’t cause me to break out. On no makeup days, I’ll sometimes use it on its own to remove the day’s impurities if I don’t feel like using my water gel cleanser. Will definitely re purchase ☺️
I had the privilege of trying the brand new Calming Oil Cleanser a week before it's launch and it is an absolute triumph. The simple formulation containing only 4 ingredients is simple yet incredibly effective at removing make-up, SPF and daily impurities from the skin. The formulation is lightweight yet still has great slip for massaging all traces of the day away to reveal skin that is clean, soft and nourished after use.
If you're looking for an oil cleanser that is affordable, great on sensitive skin and is incredibly effective, then this is the one for you. Don't forget, if you're looking to double cleanse, Farmstead Naturals Gentle Manuka Face Wash is the perfect partner for a complete cleansing ritual 🙌
This cleanser is so gentle! It was great at breaking down all the makeup I had on and my face felt super clean afterwards but not dry! I have really sensitive skin and it felt really calming!
I've bern buying Farmstead Naturals for a while now and gifted the Manuka wash to a friend who is prone to Rosacea - she's hooked as it's been so gentle on her skin.
When Charlene asked if I would try the oil cleanser and offer feedback, I jumped at the chance.
I used it for the first the tonight and could see how easily it removed my make up when I was standing massaging it in at the bathroom mirror. It removed my blush, khol eye shadow and tallow based skin tint with zero effort.
It's completely fragrance free and as with the facewash: zero eye sting. My skin felt moisturised rather than tight.
I followed with the Manuka face wash and again, zero tightness, which I've come to expect from these powerful, yet gentle products.
A fantastic addition to the range, thank you!
Looks like I'll be buying these for my friend too!!
