Kosé Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil 20 ingredients
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.

Broke me out. The first ingredient has a pore clogging rate of 3 out of 5, known as isopropyl myristate. So buyer beware!
Gave me a lot of CCs where I never had acne before. Worst product I’ve ever tried.
