A Gentle Touch: Discover the Soothing Power of Rituals Cleansing Oil
Forget everything you thought you knew about oily cleansers if you've had a bad experience in the past. This isn't your greasy, pore-clogging nightmare. The Rituals Cleansing Oil is a beautifully lightweight, silky concoction that transforms into a milky emulsion when it meets water. It feels incredibly luxurious on the skin – like a mini spa treatment every time you wash your face.What I love most about it is just how gentle it is. It effortlessly melts away makeup (even stubborn mascara and foundation!) and the day's grime without any harsh rubbing or tugging. My skin, which can sometimes be a bit sensitive, feels calm and happy after using it, never red or irritated. It’s that perfect balance of effective cleansing and soothing comfort.
KEY BOTANICAL TREASURES FROM NATURE
Botanical Oils That Cleanse and Comfort the Skin
So, what's behind this magic? While Rituals keeps its exact ingredient list a little close to its chest (as many brands do!), you can just tell by the feel and the results that it's packed with quality botanical oils. These aren't just there to dissolve makeup; they're actively working to condition and soothe your skin as you cleanse.This is where cleansing oils truly shine compared to some foaming or gel cleansers. Instead of stripping away your natural oils, a good cleansing oil like those championed by ekoskincare helps to maintain your skin's essential moisture barrier. Discover more gentle and effective options in our cleanser. That means your skin feels balanced and hydrated, not parched and desperate for moisturiser. It's a fantastic choice if you're looking to achieve that healthy, supple glow from the very first step of your routine.
How to Use Rituals Cleansing Oil
Using this oil is an absolute dream. Here's my go-to method:
-
Start with dry hands and a dry face. This is key! Pump a small amount (one or two pumps is usually plenty) into your palms.
-
Gently massage the oil all over your face. Take your time and enjoy the moment. Really work it into your skin, allowing it to dissolve all your makeup and impurities. You'll literally see your foundation and mascara melting away.
-
Add a splash of warm water. Now, this is where the magic happens! The oil will emulsify into a lovely, milky consistency. Continue to massage your face to ensure everything is thoroughly rinsed away.
-
Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Make sure there's no residue left behind.
-
Pat your face dry with a clean towel. Avoid rubbing, as this can irritate your skin.
And that's it! Your skin will feel clean, soft, and beautifully prepped for whatever serums and moisturisers you apply next.
