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.

Great product

"I've been using this every night to double cleanse my face - works well to help nourish skin and doesn't leave it feeling oily nor dry"

Kara B. (5/5)

I’m hooked!

"The oily skin cleansing oil is amazing! I had never tried cleansing oil and honestly was skeptical of oil cleansing oil but I absolutely love it! It has become a staple for me every day and helped by skin clear up. My face has less breakouts and is literally glowing from this product paired with other primally pure products."

Caroline a. (5/5)

Oil cleansing convert

"I have tried oil cleansing in the past, with disappointing results. The oil I was using had coconut oil in it and I believe that was causing breakouts. Once I saw that Primally Pure had an oil for use with oily skin, I had to try it. The oil helps moisturize my skin, gives it a glow, and has been great at clearing blackheads. I am an oil cleansing convert and will be buying this again once I run out."

CHRISTINA (5/5)

It’s Good

"A nice cleanser. It was a little strange to cleanse with an oil at first but it doesn’t irritate my skin and leaves it feeling fresh. I have bad acne and I’ve been using it a few weeks and I still have bad acne. But at least it doesn’t make things worse."

Sarah S. (5/5)

Must have.

"Must have for oily summer skin. As my skin has matured with time I do prefer the dry skin cleansing oil for winter, but I grab this whenever a breakout is arriving still. Can't go wrong with this one!"

Tracy J. (5/5)

Wish I Tried This Sooner

"What a concept: fighting oil with oil! I wish I was brave enough to try this sooner instead of being worried about congested pores and sebaceous glands. This is the type of face wash I've needed my whole life and society told me that it wouldn't be beneficial. I'm so glad I tried it, and never plan on switching brands or products ever again!"

Kateland V. (5/5)

Using this cleansing oil has

"Using this cleansing oil has changed my skin for the absolute best. I haven’t washed my face with regular soap in almost 6 months and my acne and breakouts have never been more at bay. I absolutely love this product. Thank you Primally pure!"

Sara L. (5/5)

Perfect for acne prone skin

"Loved it. Leaves my oily skin clean, balanced, and never stripped."

Jason G. (5/5)

Great product, love the smell!

"This is my favorite Primally Pure product by far! The smell is amazing, it feels so smooth on the skin and I ditched my entire night time routine of creams and serums now for a double cleanse using this clean cleansing oil and my skin is looking great!"

Shaindy H. (5/5)

It took a few washes

"It took a few washes before I could get used to the transition to oil. I love the way it makes my skin feel, in just a couple weeks my oily skin is way more balanced. The smell is amazing, it’s like a spa date every time I was my fave."

Q&A

Hi! I was wondering why do you recommend washing with warm water for oily skin? As far as I know, you should wash oily skin with cool/cold water.
Great question! With this specific product, we have noticed that warm water works better with it. :) Feel free to use whatever temperature for your comfort!
Hi! My 14 year old daughter has been struggling with acne for a couple of years. She has been using the double cleansing routine with the baby bar and the cleansing oil for oily skin. It has really helped with the oily face problem, but the acne really hasn't gotten better. Is there something that I should change in her routine? Is there a product that I should add to help with the acne? I would appreciate any advice! Thank you so much!
Please reach out to hello@primallypure.com for assistance!
Hi I dont have oily skin but I do have breakouts on my chin. I'm 63y and would like recommendation on the right products to use? Also, are essential oils and coconut oil safe for people who have breakouts? Thank you
Each persons skin reacts differently. You could always give it a try and if you do not have the results you had hoped for, feel free to reach back out and we would be happy to find something that works for you!
What is the PH level of the cleansing oil for oily skin?
Thanks for reaching out! Oils are an aqueous solution and don't have a pH. :)
I took the skin quiz and it recommended the cleansing oil for oily and acne prone skin but I have notoriously dry skin, especially in the winter. Would the oily + acne prone cleansing oil also benefit someone with dry skin?
Thanks for your question! You can customize the right Cleansing Oil fro your skin. In this case, we would recommend the Dry Cleansing Oil. :)
