Burt's Bees Cleansing Oil with Coconut & Argan, 180 millilitre

Product Information

This night cream for normal to combination skin is said to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles thanks to royal jelly. Dermalogica’s deep cleansing oil helps remove impurities, waterproof makeup, SPF, and excess sebum. It features borage seed, kukui, and apricot oils that help nourish, protect and soften. The brand recommends following this cleansing step with the Dermalogica foaming cleanser. And another 5-star review says, “I REALLY enjoy this cleansing oil. My face in just a few days is SO much happier since it’s not being stripped by my cleansers I have been using and I tried them all. NEVER discontinue this gem. No breakouts. Doesn’t strip skin and feels healthy afterwards.” The basic premise behind using oils to cleanse skin is that like attracts like (oil absorbs oil, after all). Meaning using oils to wash your face will help remove the excess oil on your skin in addition to binding to dirt and removing it without damaging the skin barrier — but won’t cause excessive dryness as many conventional cleansers can. These formulas often contain sulfates that can be harsh on the skin — especially sensitive skin — leading to breakouts . Some cosmetics companies have taken People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and Leaping Bunny animal-testing pledges. For consumers who are concerned about companies’ policies on animal testing, Skin Deep reports this information.

Oil cleansers act as solvents, ingredients that dissolve comparable substances from a more scientific perspective. When massaged into the skin, a cleansing oil for the face lifts and dissolves oils (sebum), pollutants, and makeup without stripping your skin’s microbiome — the delicate balance of bacteria that naturally lives on your skin. The brand’s cleansers are now named VINOCLEAN, meaning they are eco-responsible, vegan, and highly natural. The fragrance ingredients in this product include lemon fruit extract, orange fruit extract, citral, geraniol, limonene, and linalool. These ingredients can cause sensitization and irritation, especially when used on the delicate skin around the eyes. You should always wear sunscreen, but you may not wear makeup each day. In that case, Dr. Russak says it’s fine to double cleanse only a few times a week when your skin and mind really need to detox. “I love using Erno Laszlo Double Cleanse on the weekends,” says Dr. Russak. “The extra step feels like an indulgence and a mental break.” This Burt’s Bees face wash is said to gently remove dirt, oil, and makeup without causing redness or irritation. One of the key ingredients in this cleanser is Quillaja Saponaria (soap bark) extract, which functions as an alternative to synthetic surfactants.Bottom Line: Burt’s Bees Cleansing Oil uses caprylic/capric triglyceride and Crambe Abyssinica seed oil to dissolve makeup and impurities, but keep in mind that this formula includes a high concentration of fragrance. Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream is a nightly anti-wrinkle cream moisturizer that is clinically shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as improve your skin's ability to retain moisture while you sleep. This product contains 98.9% natural ingredients. It is non-comedogenic and formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and SLS. One of the key ingredients in this night cream is clary sage. Clary sage thrives in its harsh Mediterranean environment due to its ability to trap and retain moisture. It is thought that this ingredient can help the skin better retain moisture, resulting in soft, supple skin.

Dr. Mariwalla also has some favorite oils for cleansing.“I think a marula oil is great or a coconut or jojoba oil because they are most similar to your skin lipids,” says Dr. Mariwalla. “I advise avoiding olive oil as that can lead to Seborrheic dermatitis (dandruff) in some people.” The rich salve absorbs into the skin easily due to the high concentration of olive oil. Olive oil contains several different fatty acids, but is mostly composed of oleic acid (65 to 85%). Oleic acid is an omega-9 monounsaturated fatty that functions as a penetration enhancer. Ultimately, the high concentration of olive oil in this hand salve will help deliver other active ingredients deeper into the skin.

Who else has washed their face with a regular cleanser at night only to find streaks of foundation on your towel as you dry off? Even though you have scrubbed your facefor the last 30 seconds, there are still traces of makeup. The oil comes in a strong plastic 177ml container with a pump top lid which delivers a fresh smelling floral oil. Since oil dissolves oil, they are ideally suited to be used as cleansers," Joshua Zeichner, MD, director of cosmetic and clinical research at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, tells Allure. "Cleansing oils usually contain an oil base, along with a traditional skin-cleansing ingredient called a surfactant, which helps bind to dirt on the skin and remove it without disrupting the skin barrier." Just make sure you work them onto dry skin, so it breaks down waterproof makeup, sunscreen, and dirt, before rinsing off with lukewarm water or gently wiping it away with a soft muslin cloth.Daisy may be able to help brighten eyes because it contains a compound called arbutin. Arbutin is a glycosylated hydroquinone that has the ability to inactivate tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is a key enzyme involved in the synthesis of melanin, the pigment that gives skin color. Therefore, by inhibiting tyrosinase, daisy extract may be able to reduce abnormal pigmentation and brighten the skin around the eyes. Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Eye Cream is a lightweight eye cream that is said to intensely hydrate the skin for soft, supple skin and youthful-looking eyes. This eye cream is formulated for normal to dry skin and can be used in both the morning and in the evening. It is dermatologist tested, non-comedogenic, and formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and SLS. One of the key ingredients in this eye cream is clary sage. Clary sage thrives in its harsh Mediterranean environment due to its ability to trap and retain moisture. It is thought that this ingredient can help the skin better retain moisture, resulting in soft, supple skin. The double cleansing method can be perfect for those who have oily skin, as it will ensure all traces of oil are removed while balancing the skin. According to a publication in the journal Molecules , beeswax is composed of hydrocarbons and free fatty alcohols, and also contains triterpenes, β-carotene, volatile compounds and phenolic compounds. The flavonoid chrysin relieves inflammation and also has antimicrobial and regenerative effects. Kukui seed oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, and jojoba seed oil are the main oils in this oil cleanser from Bobbi Brown . The kukui seed oil offers hydrating benefits, while the other three help cleanse and remove impurities while calming the skin.

Bottom Line: Soap bark cleanses the skin, while extracts like cotton flower and rice help to soothe skin in this Burt’s Bees face wash. It’s generally recommended to oil cleanse only once a day at night, so your skin is hydrated before bed. If your skin does break out after an oil cleanse, you may want to adopt the double cleansing method to remove all the oil thoroughly. On application to the skin it feels like silk and is soft & smooth. I found it just glided over my skin and allowed all areas of my face to get the oil, spreading well. Not all face oils are created equal. Cleansing oils should only be formulated with high-quality plant-based oils. However, not all cleansing oils are recommended for every skin type. Bottom Line: Royal jelly is the key ingredient in this Burt’s Bees night cream that helps enhance skin’s texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines, but keep in mind that the formula includes fragrance.

Humectants like glycerin, carrageenan, and aloe vera help to draw moisture into the upper layers of skin. This not only increases hydration, but also helps to disguise fine lines because the extra moisture is extra volume.
