Pyunkang Yul Deep Cleansing Oil 26 ingredients
A huge affordable cleansing oil, last for over than a year. Thick texture, doesn't strip my skin, hydrating, takes of make up easily including waterproof mascara.
The cleansing oil is very gentle and leaves my face soft and smooth. It's not greasy,does not irritate and removes make-up and sunscreen well. I use it in the evening and will continue to do so.

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