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.

Due to the fatty acid content, this ingredient may not be fungal-acne safe.

This oil comes from the seeds of the desert shrub called Jojoba. It is more commonly known as jojoba oil, a non-comedogenic oil.

This ingredient humectant properties, 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 strains of bacteria.

Fun fact: Jojoba oil similar to natural human skin sebum, so it has a great effect on dry skin. It is also promising with helping to regulate sebum production.

Due to its fatty acid content, Jojoba oil may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

Has a thick texture similar to olive oil and works well, but might require two or three pumps for stubborn eye makeup. Leaves a slight residue after emulsifying and washing off, but a foaming second cleanser takes care of that.

This is such an amazing product. I find with a lot of cleansing oils they break me out and this just doesn’t do that. I’ve found with other make up remover type cleansers they don’t remove the waterproof and long wear makeup I often use and this just melts everything away.

Realmente um limpador eficiente e agradável. :)
Porém... Principalmente se você for do time premiado com Acne fúngica... Siga. As. Instruções: O produto recomenda sua retirada com água morna/quente.
Água fria funciona, mas senti a necessidade de lavar mais de uma vez para limpeza "completa". (3 vezes... ;-;)
E as aspas aqui têm a ver com a minha condição de Acne Fúngica. Sendo este um produto Show more
