Since this is my first oil cleanser, I don't really have a reference on how heavy or light it should be. But at least in my experience, it is a bit on the heavy side. The thing I don't like the most is the strong smell - reminds me of chlorine. It does help with double cleansing as it lessens the look of my sebaceous filaments. But I don't think this product is for me and I won't repurchase this.
