Honey to Milk

Oil Cleansers are hailed for their abilities to cleanse without disrupting our skin's lively microbiome. Unlike other oil cleansers, the oat protein (gluten-free) in our formula allows the cleanser to emulsify when in contact with water, transforming the cleanser from honey to milk. No need for a washcloth to remove, simply wash away with warm water.  

"Made with the brand’s famously herbaceous (and perpetually sold out) olive oil, it breaks down makeup and impurities while leaving your skin’s microbiome intact, which in turn helps your skin stay deeply moisturized and as glowingly healthy as a Greek god’s."

A cleanser That Ticks All the Boxes
Into the Gloss
I used to avoid oils and oil cleansers because I was worried about making my skin more oily, but I was so wrong. This cleanser is almost gel-like, it easily melts away dirt and makeup, and with avocado, olive, and grape seed oils, it feels velvety and moisturizing as I wash my skin. It leaves my skin luminos, beautifully clean, and refreshed. And the scent is heavenly.

    The Best

    I've used this face wash for the last couple of years. I moved from a very humid climate to a dry one and I it wasn't until I found this face wash that my face stopped feeling so dry and peeling. I love the light scent, the clean feel without stripping my natural oils. It's soothing and gentle and I can't recommend it enough. My daughter in her 20's is using it now as well so it's accommodating for all ages.

    Oil cleanser

    I love an oil cleanser in the summer. It removes sunscreen, sweat, saltwater, everything. And leaves my skin feeling healthy and soft, not stripped of moisture. This is a lovely product. You won’t be sorry.

    On bottle 2

    I'm on my second bottle of the oil cleanser and I'm very pleased. I'm in my 60s and this cleanser is easy on my skin, makes my face feel clean and refreshed and not dry. I don't wear a lot of makeup but it clears away makeup very easily, too. Lovely, pleasant scent. Great product!

    Skeptic at first

    Initially wondered how it could clean so well without the soapy lather but my skin won’t lie! I’m a sensitive, fair-skinned red head and this facial cleaner is my fave for all seasons. Face feels so soft and clean ✨

    Mini Oil Cleanser
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Taking WV on the road

    I've been loving the WV oil cleanser + exfoliant since I started using them a few months ago. It's gentle on my mature skin and leaves it feeling soft & supple. The mini made it easy for me to maintain my routine on a recent family roadtrip and helped me feel fresh and ready for anything. Awesome products!

FAQ

Oil Cleansers are miracle workers for skincare: they offer a deep cleanse without stripping or drying your skin out or disrupting your microbiome (our top priority is to befriend and care for your microbiome, not cause any harm). The principle of oil cleansing is that oil attracts oil, and most of the gunk we want to get off our complexion is oil-based: SPF, makeup, product, and excess oils. Oil Cleansers are a magnet for removing all these impurities, helping to clear pores to control and prevent breakouts. It is important to note oil cleansers must be applied to dry skin. Water repels oil, so apply first to dry hands and a dry face, massage in for a few minutes, and rinse with warm water.

Our Oil Cleanser is in a league of its own. A typical oil cleanser has the consistency of a runny oil, like an olive or sunflower oil. They often require a washcloth to fully remove all the oil during cleansing. Our oil cleanser is formulated with a (gluten-free) oat protein that acts as an emulsifier. It gives our cleanser its inimitable thick consistency, which beyond deep cleansing, helps boost circulation and offer lymphatic drainage as you spend a few minutes massing it in. Once it comes in contact with water, it transforms from honey to milk and washes clean away – no need for a washcloth and no feeling of residue or excess product. It removes makeup, sunscreen, waterproof mascara, and excess oils beautifully and leaves your skin feeling soft, clean, and balanced.

We can’t speak to all oil cleansers, but our Oil Cleanser effectively removes SPF and stubborn waterproof mascara.

No! Oil Cleansers help unclog pores. What is clogging your pores is often hardened sebum (the oil our skin naturally produces) or excess product - an oil based cleanser will attract these impurities and help to decongest your complexion. This process is very gentle and natural for your skin, which is why we talk about working with your microbiome and your skin’s natural rhythms. You can absolutely unclog your pores using other cleansers, but they often contain harsh chemical-based ingredients or soaps that will strip your skin in the process, which sets off a chain of events for your skin to produce more oil to heal and hydrate itself.

Our Oil Cleanser can be used daily, morning and night. It's gentle enough not to disrupt your sensitive and lively microbiome but tough enough to remove daily build-up, makeup, and excess oils. If you only wash your face once a day, always opt for night.

Some oil cleansers cannot remove all of the day's impurities, which is why double cleansing is becoming popular. We firmly believe this is unnecessary with our product, and to do so would stripe your skin's beneficial oils. If you’d like to take it a little deeper, we recommend adding our Olive & Lotus Exfoliant once a week. It is meant to be mixed directly into the Oil Cleanser for a customizable exfoliation.
