An all-in-one facial cleanser, exfoliator, and moisturizer. Cleansing Oil is essentially a gentle alternative to soap- it cleanses without stripping the skin of its natural oils, removing the bad, and leaving the good. Whereas soap removes everything, causing imbalances to those with sensitive skin (acne, dryness, irritation, etc).

Sustain Yourself's organic Cleansing Oil removes dirt, makeup, impurities, dead skin cells, and pollution from the pores. The oil cleansing method has been used for thousands of years because it can reduce oil, rejuvenate, and hydrate, all without drying out the skin. If you like to keep things simple, our Cleansing Oil is the only product you'll ever need in your skin care routine. 

How to Use:

  1. Use a full dropper of oil and massage directly onto your dry face and neck in circular motions for about one minute, letting the oil penetrate the skin. You can add more oil if you need a smoother glide. The longer you massage, the more dirt the oil removes.
  2. Dampen an organic cotton round with warm water, wring out, and gently dab against your skin, allowing the steam to activate the oils, and then wipe away all the oil to cleanse. Be very gentle as you don't want to aggravate the skin, especially if you have sensitive skin or are prone to acne.
  3. Follow with a gentle soap cleanser for a double-cleanse, and/or apply an oil-based moisturizer if you want more hydration.

The oil cleansing method is best practiced only at night to remove dirt accumulated on the skin from the day, so it is not necessary in the morning (just make sure you sleep on a clean pillowcase).

In the morning we recommend rinsing your face with cold water and apply a bit of an oil-based moisturizer, gently dabbing it against the skin to allow the oils to fully penetrate and moisturize, instead of slathering/dragging it on. Warm water in the morning can disrupt our skin’s sebum production built up overnight and can dry out the skin, so make sure to stick to cold water and gently pat dry with a clean towel.

It may take a few days to a few weeks for you skin to adjust to plant oils, especially if you’re not used to using them in your skincare regimen. So be patient and allow for your skin to get used to introducing oils on a daily basis.

Shelf Life: 6 months if kept in ideal conditions
