Parnell Aha Omija Ceramic Cleansing Oil 200ml (6.76 fl.oz) - Korean Blackhead Melting Facial Cleanser for Deep Pore Cleansing | Best for Oily & Combination Skin, Daily Korean Skincare Routine

This Ceramic Cleansing Oil with Vitamin C + AHA + OMIJA by Parnell is everything I hoped it would be, and more.Finally, an oil cleanser that actually gets the skin clean, and I guess I have the vitamin C and AHA components to thank for that. Never fear though, the salicylic acid and ascorbic acid are present enough, but not so abundant in the formulation that they will cause rosacea flare-ups or dry out the skin.Anyway, I love this cleansing oil. It smells like what is in it, patchouli, tea tree and soybean. I adore the clean, medicinal smell of it, but that is subjective of course, and others may not agree. It takes just a few drops of oil to clean the face. I put some tap water on my hands and proceeded to massage it in, and after several seconds there was some minute foaming action which they refer to as "turning milky". At that point it is time to rinse, and this cleansing oil rinses beautifully. It left my skin feeling clean and soft, with no tightness afterward. The redness from my rosacea was greatly calmed down as well.Besides washing off makeup and surface dirt, the main job of this cleansing oil is to remove impurities, dead skin cells, and blackheads. Over time it may be expected to provide some anti-aging benefits by brightening up the complexion, and smoothing the skin texture.One interesting ingredient in the formulation is OMIJA, which is a berry extract. Not only does this extract have anti-aging properties it is also a great hydrator. And let us not forget our tea tree oil, always an amazing ingredient because it is anti-acne, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. This means that not only can It soothe and heal, it will also help protect the skin against environmental stressors.Another great thing about this cleansing oil is that it is a clean and green formulation. It contains no parabens, phthalates, PEGs, silicones, sulfates, harsh surfactants or preservatives, it does not even have added fragrance.This an all-around excellent cleansing oil that in my opinion does not need a second (water-based) cleanser to finish the job. Currently it is selling for $16, and for the clean formulation and how well it works, I think that price is a true bargain.Highly recommendedMade in Korea
