Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Cleansing Oil Waterproof Makeup Remover for Sensitive, Acne-Prone Facial Skin. Korean Skin Care for Men and Women, 210ml, 7.1 fl.oz

Edit: Okay, so I have decided to edit after a few days of using this cleansing oil, and give it the other ⭐, because I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product! Since writing my first review, I have discovered just how beautiful this cleansing oil really is. I wipe my face with warm water on a makeup wash cloth, put a couple of pumps of the oil in my hand, and just drip a few drops of warm water onto the oil in my hand, and immediately, it starts to turn like...creamy and white - not a frothy foam, but like milk in my hands. Then, I massage the creamy oil into my skin, and it doesn't really lather, so much as it seems to just become no longer oily. When I wipe it away, it leaves my skin just so...CLEAN and soft, but not feeling like it has stripped my face of all moisture like my benzoyl peroxide face wash does. It's bouncy and dewy and smooth. The other up side is that I don't have to wash my under eye areas separately with a gentle cleanser (I was using baby shampoo before buying this cleanser, and washing it first so that I didn't get benzoyl peroxide into my delicate under eye areas, which would have dried it out and caused worse fine lines). I can use this oil to gently wash my under eye area with my finger tips and to wash off my eye makeup if I'm wearing any, because it is so gentle and it adds moisture, instead of taking it away. My skin hasn't looked this good in decades - if EVER! I'm 41, and my skin looks better than it did at 31...or 21 for that matter, because for the first time in I can't remember when, I have ZERO blemishes, and - TMI, but: I'm in that point in my cycle when I'm usually having the worst breakouts, but not a single pimple or blackhead or bump of any kind. NOTHING has done so much for my skin as this oil has. Not retinol, not salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide not an expensive cream or serum - nothing! I used to DREAD washing my face, because I had to take care not to get any under my eyes or on my neck, and had to thoroughly get all of it off when rinsing, etc, but this cleansing oil has turned my least favorite part of my skin care routine into my FAVORITE part! And I no longer dislike the smell; I now associate it with the lovely experience. I WILL be reordering! I'm even contemplating buying one to use in the shower! Seriously. If you are interested in trying an oil-based face wash, but you're an oily or combination skin type, THIS is the one to try! It's now ESSENTIAL to my skin care routine. Did I say I LOVE it?! Original review: So, first of all, I'm VERY impressed with the shipping. I ordered it after 11am, and it was on my porch by 4. Having two toddlers and no time to leave the house, that is just VERY convenient. On to its quality: it feels very light and left my skin feeling clean and soft, and did not make me greasy. I did enjoy the spa-like feeling, too. It wiped clean with just warm water and a microfiber towel that's made for makeup removal. However, my biggest issue is with the smell. It stinks. BUT, as a girl who grew up on the border of Appalachia and the Midwest, I recognize that smell: it's ginseng. While I don't usually desire scents in my skin care products, I would probably have approved of some modification of the smell of this particular product. That said, I'm going to continue using it BECAUSE of the ginseng and its antioxidant properties...but I'll probably follow it up with a toner that DOESN'T stink. lol I'm an oily skin girl, and so far I don't think it's going to make things worse - especially since I'm still in the 6-8 week retinol purge, so not much CAN make it worse...ugh! AND my skin probably needs the addition of oil to prevent any dryness retinol may cause later on down the road. I'm going to use this product up, and I'll decide when it gets close to empty whether or not I'm going to reorder. So far, so good. Excellent price for what you get too, so if you're looking for an effective oil cleanser that isn't just canola or coconut oil that will leave you greasy, this is the one. Time will tell, and I'll be back - good or bad.

I find this is a pretty nice cleansing oil. It doesn't bother my sensitive skin. It doesn't really have a smell but I've had cleansing oils in the past that smelled gross so I appreciate that it has no smell rather than a bad one, lol. It emulsifies with just a little water and I like the way it makes my skin feel. But I do double cleanse so I use a foaming cleanser after the oil. Still it works in my routine! And I like other things from this brand so I'm a fan.

This is an amazing product because it is gentle and removes all of your makeup. I love the scent; it is not artificial or overpowering. I have very dry skin, and I sometimes use this alone as a face wash. It does not break me out or leave a residue.

This cleansing oil is very effective at removing makeup and sunscreen, leaving my skin clean without feeling stripped. It emulsifies well and rinses off easily. While I appreciate the performance, the scent isn’t my favorite and detracts slightly from the overall experience. Still, it’s a solid option if effectiveness matters more than fragrance.

I love this cleanser, nice weight, not heavy, removed make-up, Gentle on my skin, easy to use, rub gently into my skin and wash off, not expensive but most of all I love the way it makes my skin after I use.

This is my favorite oil based cleanser for that “first wash”. Sometimes I make it my only wash because I feel like it does such a good job. The scent is light, but refreshing. It lathers nicely and rinses off easily. My skin feels really clean afterwards and it’s not harsh at all. I have tried many others, and for ALL the reasons stated, I keep coming back to this one. Oh, and the price can’t be beat either.

I keep trying to get used to the Ginseng scent but I absolutely loathe it. I don’t like drinking ginseng as a tea either. So that’s just my own personal preference. As for functionality, it’s not one of the better oil cleansers. Anua is more affective and helps prevent acne on me. My skin has been more prone to breaking out since I’ve been using this. I gave it a few months before I wrote this so I really gave it a good try! Beauty of Joseon is usually top quality but not in this case.

Excellent product, I use it every day, I really like it, it has a pleasant consistency, it fulfills its function of cleansing the face of makeup, and it has a herbal scent.
