Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate is created from 2-ethylhexyl alcohol and palmitic acid. It is a fatty acid ester.
The fatty acid content of Ethylhexyl Palmitate makes it an emollient. Emollients help soften and hydrate your skin by trapping moisture within.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate is also used to help improve the texture of cosmetics. It helps other ingredient dissolve in products and help disperse ingredients more evenly. In fact, it is commonly used to evenly mix sunscreen ingredients such as avobenzone and ethylhexyl triazone. It can also help stabilize the fragrances in a product as a fragrance fixative.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate can be used to substitute mineral oil.

Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil contains this as ingredient number 1.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.
Within a product, Caprylic Triglyceride can thicken the product and make spreadability easier by dissolving clumping compounds. An added benefit of Caprylic Triglyceride is its antioxidant properties.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid. Caprylic Triglyceride has not been found to be toxic for human use in concentrations under 50%.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

A really pleasant oil-cleanser! The consistency is more watery, I need about 3-5 pumps for my face and neck, depending on how much makeup I'm wearing. I love how easy it is to use-- I have very sensitive skin, so I appreciate how quickly it removes makeup and I don't need to rub my skin excessively. The affordable price and beautiful glass bottle are great as well!

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.
