Review | Boscia Makeup Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil

Cleansing oils are now all the hype because it's been proven to remove makeup more efficiently -without stripping as much of your face's natural oils - than cleansing soaps and have less chemicals. The majority of breakouts is not from the makeup product itself but the remaining makeup staying on the skin for a long time.
So the main reason why I decided to give cleansing oil a try was because I previously used extra virgin olive oil, which worked really well. It removed makeup really easily but had a globby feeling and got into my eyes every single time and blurred my vision, so I needed a better alternative.


Official Claims:
• dissolves makeup
• refreshes face
• for all skin types - including eczema, blemishes, rashes

Ingredients:
• botanical oils (ie. jojoba extract, Eucalyptus leaf oil) - prevents skin irritation
• menthol - for cooling effect
• paraben, sulfate, phthalate free

Texture:
• almost scentless
• not too runny
• has a light feeling
• barely any noticeable tingling sensation from the menthol which is a plus

Application:
• rub in circular motions for 30-60 seconds and rinse off with warm water
• oil provides a smooth soft cushion for easy makeup removal
• a little goes a long way
• very gentle

Effectiveness:
• required longer gentle massaging time for stubborn products (waterproof)
• non-greasy feeling after removal
• works on EVERYTHING (mascara, lipstick, eyeshadow)
• didn't cause any breakouts

Removal of 24 HR waterproof eyeliner
Cost:
• 5oz. (147mL) for $35CAD
• compare to 5.1oz (150mL) for $33 Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil

Even though it's my first cleansing oil, it's become my favourite way of removing makeup by far! I look forward to removing my makeup everyday because it removes everything and feels satisfying.

HG makeup remover right hurr.
