I'm new to your blog - just a couple of hours ago and well i've been sitting here trawling through it because we are skin twins <3 I'm dehydrated, acne-prone, sensitive and i also live in a crazy hot place (though humid) called Singapore. Three oils i have tried that do not break me out:<br /><br />1. FANCL Mild Cleansing Oil<br />This one i've used since my early 20s when my acne was RAMPANT and i practically lived on Accutane. I continued using this after my acne problem was solved and it always left my skin soft and clean (NOTHING left over on toner-soaked cotton pads after). FANCL exited from Singapore shortly after (sad) and i continued my quest, which led to:<br /><br />2. Innisfree Apple Juicy Cleansing Oil<br />This one worked, but always left my face feeling stripped. Still I went through about 3 bottles because it was cost-friendly and easy to find, plus back in those ages, cleansing oils weren't a product staple in most skincare brands. I then moved on to fancier stuff when my wallet allowed:<br /><br />3. Shu Uemura Porefinist Cleansing Oil<br />This range has several versions targeting different skin concerns. I don't have Oily skin (combi/dehydrated as mentioned) but it had the best reviews on the internet. It worked very well for me, albeit leaving a strange filmy finish but that was not a deal breaker since i always double cleanse and it never ever caused any skin irritation. I went through 2 huge 450ml bottles (this was a span of about 1.5-2 years me thinks) happily. AND THEN!<br /><br />FANCL came back to Singapore! Needless to say i went back to my old love again. I'm in my 30s now and acne, my old friend has caught up with me.. some things that worked for me in my 20s cause me breakouts now, but still not FANCL! <br /><br />On an side/ending (and non-korean related) note, i find that this PH 5.5 cleanser called Sebamed Teenage Cleansing Liquid works well as a double cleanser as it doesn't strip the hell out of my skin. <br /><br />I hope you find your HG cleansing oil someday! Lots of love.bluebeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843112270455117122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-66320719798425101722016-09-23T09:26:52.874-07:002016-09-23T09:26:52.874-07:00I'm not at all offended! :D I have done mass...I'm not at all offended! :D I have done massages with actual massage creams, and with a clean, dry face and oil cleansers, as well as experimenting with not leaving the oil on my face for more than the few moments it takes to cleanse my makeup off, but alas they still all clog me and break me out. <br /><br />I really appreciate you thinking of that, though, and taking the time to offer the suggestion, it's a good one! :)<br /><br />Take care <3<br />-CatCat Cactushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052704885218633917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-29234514413197087372016-09-22T10:54:57.752-07:002016-09-22T10:54:57.752-07:00Hello Cat! Hope you don't mind me saying this ...Hello Cat! Hope you don't mind me saying this but have you consider not putting the oil on your face for a few minutes before you massaging your face with it? <br /><br />As when you have makeup and an oil cleanser on your face for a few minutes; the makeup and dirt will start going into your pores without you realising it. Especially when you start massaging for longer then 3 minutes(If I remember the time correctly). When you do that, its like massaging all the dirt and makeup into your pores.<br /><br />That's why Korean companies have massage cream sold separately. I love massaging my skin too! However, it would be best to massage your skin without any makeup and dirt on it.<br /><br />Seeing your symptoms with oil cleansers, this might be the cause. I might be wrong but I hope it helps you! I know how it feels when every product you try just does not suit your skin.<br /><br />I am sorry if this offends you in anyway. Just want to help! Have a great day!! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-70040757718145200152015-06-17T17:12:34.081-07:002015-06-17T17:12:34.081-07:00Yep, skincare is such a process of trial and error...Yep, skincare is such a process of trial and error! :)Cat Cactushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052704885218633917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-3725620199786090892015-06-03T07:39:50.905-07:002015-06-03T07:39:50.905-07:00I tried Real Art Cleansing oil and my skin really ...I tried Real Art Cleansing oil and my skin really did like it and it really help remove my make up :) maybe it really depends on the skin. try other kinds of make up oil remover. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13354975961720941124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-42294429918935300052015-03-24T07:29:54.760-07:002015-03-24T07:29:54.760-07:00Ah!
