Before we get started with this post, I just want to say that I will not be having set post days anymore. When I have certain days I have to post blogging becomes a chore and that's not what I want. Blogging is a a fun hobby for me I love to write and share my thoughts. I will have one post a week for sure, that much you can count on. But if you are wanting to know when a post is up you can follow my social media, which will be listed down below.
So now onto the post. I am talking about the The Body Shop Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil. I started hearing people talk about cleansing oils to remove makeup about 6-8 months ago. I thought it was a really weird thing; why would you want to put oil on your face? The one I heard people talking about the most was the Boscia Makup-Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil. But that cleansing oil is $35, that's expensive. Soon after hearing about the Boscia I heard about The Body Shop's Cleansing Oil. So I was every curious sand wanted to give it a go. The Body Shop Cleaning Oil is $16, plus you get 1.75 more ounces than the Boscia Oil. You pay less money and get more, it sounded like a good deal to me. So let's get into the product.
This is great, it dissolves all your makeup, which is exactly what you want it to do. I really like the scent of this. I have really sensitive skin as you know if you read my Best Cleanser for Sensitive Skin post, and this does not irritate my skin at all. This is especially great for getting off stubborn eye makeup. I wear waterproof mascara and this is the only thing that can get it all off my lashes. The one mistake people have made with this product is they use it as a face wash, that is not what it is intended for. You have to make sure you use a cleanser afterwards, like the CeraVe one I mentioned. My mom made this mistake when I gave her this to try. She said her face felt greasy afterwards, which it does if you were to just use that. But the use of a cleansing oil is only to breakdown the makeup, and the job of a cleanser is to clean your skin, and keep the acne at bay. You want to have all your makeup off so your cleanser can do its job and clear up your skin. I am not sure how well this cleanser would work for people with really oily skin, I have quite dry skin. I have heard people who lean more to the oil side like it a lot, and do not find it makes them oiler. But I am not sure if it would make your skin oiler if you have quite oily skin. But the great thing with The Body Shop is as long as you keep your receipt you can return it if it does not work for your skin. I know that is the way it works at my store, but I cannot speak for all The Body Shop stores.
Hope this helpful, and maybe you found a new way to take your makeup off. Also keep in mind The Body Shop has great sales like buy 3 get 3 free. So you are sure to find a good deal.
Thanks for reading, see you soon!
