Start with dry hands and face. Pump into hand and massage over dry face. Add water and rinse to wash away makeup and impurities.

Look forward to washing your face

Oil cleansing is the perfect fit for oily and breakout-prone skin because it gently removes excess oil without over-drying your skin or disturbing your lipid barrier. We dreamed up Botanical Cleansing Oil to elevate the chore of washing your face to a spa-like experience.

With its light, slippy texture, it glides effortlessly over your skin to gently remove oil, dirt, and impurities that clog pores, while delighting your senses with its brightly botanical aroma featuring geranium, pink grapefruit and lavender essential oils. You’ll find it so easy to use and even easier to fall in love with.

The best brand

I love these products. Amazing to have a brand like this that I can trust to be good for me and the planet!!

Double cleansing

I've been looking for a lower waste cleansing oil that nicely emulsifies for awhile (not just an oil, as that doesn't wash off well without a warm towel or something). This does the job nicely and removes my makeup!

Love Love Love

I love activist and my skin looks beautiful! I am 45 years old, my skin was oily growing up but a mix now. And always has been sensitive to ingredients. I found oil based cleansers and my skin loves it! Thank you for making a pure product that doesn’t make me break out.
