The science of cleansing with oil

Although it sounds counter-intuitive, cleansing your face with the proper combination of plant based oils (never mineral oil) can have surprising and long term benefits.

Cleansing with oil instead of soap can help protect the lipid layer of skin and the beneficial bacteria that live there.

How it works

First let’s talk sebum.  It’s the natural oily substance that lubricates the hair and skin.  Generally speaking, oilier skin types produce more and drier skin types produce less.  In some more oil is produced in the “T” zone or on other parts of the face.

Sebum is good and necessary but . . . 

Everyday the natural sebum (oil) on your face traps dirt, impurities and environmental pollutants.

Water alone does not dissolve this oil and cannot remove the excess.  If you wash your face with Water you need soap.  And soap, not matter how gentle, is soap. 

scientist in a lab

Chemists call oils lipophilic, meaning that they are naturally attracted to other oils, including the excess sebum found in your skin.

Oil cleansing, which has been around for centuries, is not “washing” but a natural way to cleanse facial skin of excess sebum, bacteria, dead skin cells, dirt, impurities, environmental contaminants, even makeup and other debris while toning.

How to use

The basic cleanse

Beginning with clean dry hands:

1 – Add a few drops of cleansing oil on finger tips (or palms) and apply to face in gentle upward circular motion spreading evenly across the surface of your face until the skin begins to resist.  Apply additional drops in the same manner until the surface of the entire face is treated.

2 – Wet hands and apply water to the face in the same manner until the serum goes from clear to milky white.

3 – Use your fingertips to gently massage the oil into your skin

Use a warm washcloth to remove the oil

Pro tip: perform a patch test

A patch test can check for potential reactions before you use a new product on any part of your skin and is always recommended.

1 – apply a small amount of oil to a less visible part of your face, behind the ear or the inside of your elbow and leave on for 10 minutes up to 24 hours.

2 – check the treated area for signs of itching, irritation or inflammation.

3 – use as directed if no symptoms develop.

Purging and adjustment period

When first using an oil cleanser, there may be some purging.

Pay attention to your skin for best results.
