How to Use Cleansing Oil

This ritual not only resurfaces and deeply cleanses the skin but the massage + warm washcloth removal boosts circulation, activates lymphatic flow and softens tension which are all foundational to create skin that truly radiates from the inside out.

  • Step 1 | Massage 1-2 pumps of oil onto dry skin (even over makeup) for 1-2 minutes. Tip: Breathe into this moment and focus on areas prone to congestion or tension
  • Step 2 | Place warm, wet washcloth on skin until it cools and gently wipe away product, makeup + buildup (repeat with opposite side of cloth if needed).

New to Cleansing Oils? It may take 2-4 weeks for your skin to fully adjust as your complexion regulates and rebalances.

For an even deeper cleanse and skin reset, try the double cleansing technique with our Cleansing Oil followed by a Cleansing Bar.

Reviews

Spa feeling, gentle, effective

"If you aren't familiar with or used to using a cleansing oil give it a try! Works well at taking off the daily build up and facial makeup in a gentle way. Smells like a spa so it's a nice ritualistic cleanse. Use a wash cloth to fully take it off and get the best cleanse. Or double cleanse with a PP facial bar. This one specifically is good for sensitive/ normal/balanced/dry skin."

Alyssa C. (5/5)

Great product

"I have been using this to take off my makeup at the end of the day and also instead of washing my face. It works great. My skin feels good and soft after. I love the clean ingredients as well. I’ll definitely be recommending this to my friends."

12/10

"Apart of My everyday routine! Since the first use, I’ve noticed a difference. Before this product, I used to use so much moisturizer and no improvement on dryness of my skin. One use of this and haven’t touch my facial moisturizer since. I purchased this for my good friend and she loves it"

Sara G. (5/5)

All around wonderful!

"The best facial cleanse there is. I have dry skin and for years and years I searched for a hydrating cleanser. This is amazing care for dry skin! No stripping or tight dry feel after washing. It feels like a luxury cleanliness after using it!"

Tanner C. (5/5)

The Most Hydrating Cleanser

"I have been using this cleanser for over a year & I could not be happier with it! As someone who has tried just about every product on the market (I have been acne prone since I was 10 years old —now 28), & this beats everything. It leaves my skin feeling clean but hydrated, it smells amazing, & I look forward to using it every night. As someone with “oily skin” I was nervous about using an oil based cleanser, but since adding this to my routine, my skin has never felt more balanced & clear."

Sarah C. (5/5)

Love it!

"This cleansing oil has been so great for my unusually dry skin during my pregnancy. So thankful to have something I feel so good about using, especially right now, AND it smells so good and encourages me to slow down and appreciate it more, which only enhances the overall experience of my skin care routine!"

Michaela C. (5/5)

Splash free use!

"Melts makeup, including waterproof. I love that you don’t really need to rise your face and get water everywhere, you just use a moist washcloth. Helps motivate me to use it and my skin feels so hydrated after. I will use this product as a go to in my core skin care."

Zachary B. (5/5)

So far I'm loving this

"So far I'm loving this as a cleanser at night! Weird concept to use oil to clean my skin but i feel like it doesn't strip my skin and gets off all the grim/makeup much better than a traditional cleanser we are all used to using. It smells great and easy to use!"

Molly M. (5/5)

Great scent, perfect if you have dry skin!

"I received this oil as part of a bundle and was excited to try it out. I love the scent as it’s so luxurious, but also very natural of course. I don’t have dry skin so I think this may work better on those who do. I wear minimal makeup but found I had to work a bit more to get my skin completely clean."

Hannah B. (4/5)

Super hydrating , leave my skin soft but…

"My skin feels great after using this. My only complaint is that it’s designed to use on a dry face without water…. i usually wash my face in the shower so I feel like I shouldn’t use this when I’m Showering based on the instructions?? Also wondering if I can use this as a serum and leave it on my face…. the ingredients are great and seem like it would work well that way."

Q&A

Hi there! Do your oils have a super strong smell? I love the ingredients but do not like strong essential oils smells on my face. Thanks!
The Dry Cleansing Oil has a subtle essential oil scent. :)
I have rosacea acne. Would this skin care routine be irritating to that? I’m not currently in a flare. Just curious. I’ve never used this kind of skin care and know that the rosacea acne makes my skin sensitive. Any thoughts?
Thanks so much for reaching out! We'd love to share our favorite product picks to help with Rosacea. For cleansing, we would recommend our Baby Bar which is packed full of super nourishing ingredients that help to calm skin without causing further irritation. Next, we would follow up with our Soothing Mist as an effective + healing toner. Finally, we would suggest using our Soothing Serum + CBD to help moisturize the skin and combat inflammation and redness at a deep level. If you need even more moisture you can follow up with our Baby Balm. Once your skin gets to a more "neutral" state we would recommend slowly introducing some of our other products such as our Cleansing Oil or Serums. We hope this is helpful and please let us know if we can answer any other questions.
Hi, Just wonndering which of the cleansers are ok to use to wash off eye makeup?
Thanks so much for your question! The Cleansing Oil is safe to used for make-up removal. :)
I’ve been using this cleansing oil & soothing mist/serum/cream for about two weeks. After the first week, I started noticing small white bumps of acne I don’t normally have. Is it normal for this to appear a week after using? I know there’s an adjustment period, but thought it would be when I first started using it. When should my skin get better?
Hey Alyssa, We are so sorry to hear this! Please email us at hello@primallypure.com and we can help troubleshoot this. :) XO, Pure Team
I have been using the double cleanser in the AM and PM. My face has been breaking quite bad. Do you recommend adding anything or doing anything else? I know it might take a while for skin to adjust as well but just wanted to make sure since Acne makes me so self conscious and it’s pretty bad.
Hi Josie, Based on what you've described it sounds like your skin may be experiencing this due to over cleansing. We would recommend limiting oil cleansing to a few times a week and using our Baby Bar to cleanse at night in-between those times. Follow up with Everything Spray to tone + finish with Baby Balm or Beauty Cream to moisturize. In the morning we recommend simply splashing your face with some warm water and using Everything Spray on a cotton pad to remove any residue that built up from the night before. After that point we would encourage you to follow up with our Fancy Face to provide lightweight yet adequate moisture for the day. :) We hope this helps! xo, The Pure Team
