What this is about
Oil dissolves oil
Makeup, sunscreen and sebum are fat-soluble, so a mild oil takes them up especially gently. Light oils such as almond or jojoba oil suit well, also for most skin types.
What matters is the right order: apply, dissolve, gently remove.

How it works
- Choose the oil: a mild, light oil such as almond or jojoba oil, neat is enough.
- Apply: put it on dry skin and massage gently, the makeup dissolves.
- Remove: wipe off carefully with a warm, damp cloth, do not rub.
- Eyes carefully: work gently, do not rub oil into the eye.
- Cleanse after: if you like, wash mildly afterwards, especially with blemish-prone skin.
Said honestly
Oil as a makeup remover is gentle, cheap and pleasant for many skin types, and a light oil is often the better choice than a strongly comedogenic one. It is care, not treatment, and we make no healing promises. With sensitive eyes or contact lenses be careful and test tolerance first. We give you the facts, the decision stays with you.
