Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate is a surfactant and emulsifier. It is part of the PEG Sorbitan/Sorbitol Fatty Acid Esters group. As an emulsifier, it helps ingredients such as oil and water mix together. This allows the dirt and oils in your skin to be washed away.
Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate has a molecular weight of 30.
Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate is a tetraester from oleic acid and polyethylene glycol ether of sorbitol.
One study found pumpkin oil containing Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate helped hydrate the skin and did not cause any irritation.

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil contains this as ingredient number 3.
Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil is the oil derived from the seeds of a Sunflower. Sunflower seed oil is non-fragrant. It is an emollient, meaning it helps to soften the skin.
Sunflower seed oil contains many fatty acids. The fatty acids found in sunflower seeds include (from highest amount to least): linoleic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, oleic acid, and linolenic acid.
These fatty acids help the skin create ceramides. Ceramides play a role in repairing the skin barrier.
Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil helps moisturize the skin. This in turn helps the skin look more rejuvenated and smoother.
Sunflowers are rich in vitamin E.
Historians believe Indigenous cultures of North America domesticated sunflowers before corn. Thus they relied on sunflower oil for a variety of uses. One such use is moisturizing skin and hair.
Sunflower seed oil may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil contains this as ingredient number 5.
Olea Europaea Fruit Oil is the fixed oil obtained from the ripe fruit of the Olive. In other words - olive oil.
The primary contents of olive oil are glycerides of the fatty acids linoleic, oleic and palmitic.
Olive oil also contains antioxidants such as Vitamin E. Antioxidants may help reduce signs of aging by fighting unstable free-radical molecules. It also contains Vitamins A (retinol), D, and K.
The squalene in olive oil makes it a great emollient. Emollients help soothe and soften your skin by trapping moisture in. This makes olive oil a great skin moisturizer.
Studies show olive oil to have antibacterial and antifungal properties in low concentrations. Another study found olive oil irritated sensitive oily skin. We always recommend speaking with a professional about using this ingredient in your routine.

This ingredient is the fixed oil extracted from seeds of the desert shrub Jojoba. It is more commonly known as jojoba oil. The seed oil is liquid wax ester from the plant. It is non-comedogenic.
Jojoba oil does not contain fragrance and has many fatty-acids, making it a great soothing ingredient. Jojoba contains Vitamin E, a great moisturizing ingredient. Vitamin E is also an antioxidant. Antioxidants help protect your skin against free-radical damage. This may help in anti-aging.
Jojoba seed oil is a humectant, meaning it helps draw moisture from the air. This helps keep your skin hydrated.
While jojoba has antibacterial properties, it is only able to kill some bacteria. It has also been shown to help in wound healing. Indigenous cultures have used jojoba as a moisturizer and to help treat burns.
It is found to be similar to natural human skin sebum, so it has a great effect on dry skin. Jojoba oil may even help with regulating sebum production.
Although jojoba oil is non-comedogenic, we recommend speaking with a professional about using this ingredient if you have any concerns.
Jojoba oil may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.
Jojoba is native to the southwestern US.

Ethylhexylglycerin (we can't pronounce this either) is commonly used as a preservative and skin softener. It is derived from glyceryl.
You might see Ethylhexylglycerin often paired with other preservatives such as phenoxyethanol. Ethylhexylglycerin has been found to increase the effectiveness of these other preservatives.

I want to like this because I love the toner but it’s just too harsh on my skin (sensative + excema) it was pulling out lots but not the filaments on my nose, and I’m now trying to recover from a very upset and bumpy face. Just not for me

Man I love this Anua oil cleanser, it literally pulls out the gunk of sebaceous filaments, bacteria and dead skin cells from my face when I rub it in for 10 minutes. DO NOT EVER USE THIS AND NOT FOLLOW UP WITH A WATER CLEANSER AFTERWARDS. People always complain this makes them break out but are not double cleansing however I do naturally have oily skin so it’s a match made in heaven but just be wary if you have extremely sensitive skin get a sample first (AND DOUBLE CLEANSE FOR ALL YOUR OIL CLEANSERS!!). It’s a 10/10 I mean LOOK at the residue it pulled off my face in the photo. 1 bottle lasts about 5 months, mine lasted me from late October and it’s still not finished now (it’s late February), I used it twice a day with two pumps for the first 2 months and now I use it once a day in the PM with two pumps and I have a little bit left that will most likely say for another 3 weeks, so yeah I’d say it lasts for 5 months. It adds a lovely fullness to my skin but please consider it was my first one so I must admit I’m slightly biased, I don’t want to purchase another oil cleanser because I’m happy with it. Seriously it’s so good I don’t even want to try others. It does the job perfectly, I’m not sure if other oil cleansers can suck out the bacteria from skin like this so I don’t even want to risk it. It’s perfect for me especially since I travel in London Underground and the air is contaminated there, that’s when the nastiest stuff comes out of my pores.

made my usually not sensitive skin red af and broke me out.. my cheeks were itchy and red and looked like it got bit by multiple mosquitos. when i used it to remove my mascara, it absolutely burned my eyes and ripped my lashes out no matter how gentle i was. there are better oil cleansers out there.

I found that this product broke me out and gave me closed comodones. I used it correctly it just didn't like my oily combination skin :/ . I would def not recmmend to anyone with acne prone skin. I found that using micellar water and a cleanser worked way better for me, i only use the centella oil once a week on my t zone and chin to unclog any pores that the micellar water didn't manage.
Really like everything except the smell. It's not overwhelming but I don't like it. It works perfectly to remove anything in my skin without any irritation so unless I find a better fit for me, I will repurchase
