Kose Cosmeport Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil 60ml

Product Information

Apply the oil all over your dry face, gently massaging it into your makeup in circular motions. Spend a bit more time on any areas with heavy or waterproof makeup, such as around the eyes and mouth, but you shouldn’t need to rub too hard. After around 30 seconds to a minute, it should feel like your makeup has been dissolved. Another super common myth surrounding mineral oil is that it is comedogenic. A 2005 study titled"Is mineral oil comedogenic?" examined this very question and guess what happened? The study concluded that" based on the animal and human data reported, along with the AAD recommendation, it would appear reasonable to conclude that mineral oil is noncomedogenic in humans." It seemed like a good option for me, and would possibly be a bit more eco-friendly than using a disposable makeup-removing towelette every night.

Rice bran oil is rich in nutritents like gamma-oryzanol, which is an antioxidant. Gamma-oryzanol and other compounds in rice bran could help fight UV-related damage. Kose Softymo Cleansing Oil is designed to be used as the first step in a double cleansing skincare routine. This first step removes oil-based impurities such as sebum, makeup and sunscreen. In the second step, another product (usually a foam or cream face wash like this one) is used to remove any water-based impurities such as dirt and sweat. Do I have to double cleanse with Kose Softymo Cleansing Oil? One of the cult favourite products in Japanese skincare! This product removes any traces of makeup (even waterproof) and goes deep into the pores to clear away any impurities without stripping the skin. The formula contains 5 certified organic oils (Olive, Jojoba, Sesame, Safflower and Shea Butter) that keep the skin smooth and moisturised. Ingredients Kose Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil is really lightweight and it is a really nice cleansing oil to use. But that doesn’t mean that I love it. Mother Nature also created wax esters but for a totally different purpose. Chemically, a wax ester is a fatty acid + a fatty alcohol, one long molecule. Wax esters are on the outer surface of several plant leaves to give them environmental protection. 25-30% of human sebum is also wax esters to give uspeople environmental protection.

It doesn’t contain coconut oil, which breaks me out. The aforementioned Burt’s Bees facial cleansing oil also contains coconut oil. Plus, I hate the smell of coconut oil. The Kosé Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil is a cult favourite in Japan, and makes light work of your first cleanse. Fragrance-free, this cleansing oil is suitable for all skin types. Always when I use makeup I start with an oil cleanser. My skin type is super dry so using oil cleansers is absolutely the best match for my skin. I do double cleanse whenever I have been using more makeup, during summer time, or when I just feel like a deeper cleanse. Since my skin is really dry I tend to stay away from too much foam cleansing during winter time. The pros of mineral oilcan be interpreted as cons if we look at them from another perspective. Not penetrating the skin but mostly just sitting on top of it and not containing biologically active components, like nice fatty acids and vitamins meanthat mineral oil does not "nourish" the skin in the way plant oils do. Mineral oil doesnot give the skin any extra goodness, it is simply a non-irritating moisturizer working mainly by occlusivity.

Badmouthing mineral oil is a favorite sport of many, it is a cheap material and being connected to petrolatum makes it fairly easy to demonize. I like not having to wipe my face with a makeup-removing towelette—it feels like I’m being a lot more gentle to my skin. I was starting to feel a little irritation associated with rubbing the towelette on my face (for the record, I was using CVS Just the Basics Pre-moisttened Facial Towelettes). Excellent cleansing power that removes the makeup behind the pores, stubborn dirt and waterproof mascara that is hard to fall off.

Without further ado, let’s explore the ingredients in this facial cleansing oil.
