The feel! I've been using a myriad of different cleansers over the years though I've never felt one like this. Most brands dry out my skin terribly though not Shu Uemura oils. They leave my skin soft, healthy and clean without stripping natural oils from my face. I also like the slight tingly feeling from after I use it... I would give 5 stars in every category though I wish it was a bit cheaper. Still a fantastic product for the price! There truly is a *huge* difference between this and drugstore brands.

First of all, I love the scent of this product. The light citrus smell reminds me of Korean yuzu tea, one of my favorite drinks. This product feels really comfortable to use and while I've also been using the oil cleansing method with other essential oils, this cleansing oil was the first to bring "grits" out of my skin. It was satisfying using this product and I felt a notable decrease in the blackheads on my nose. Of course, I've only used this twice so far because my only experience with Shu Uemura has been through the recent sample giveaway but I was highly satisfied with the performance of this product.

Shu Uemura Cleansing Oils are simply devine! Rubbing the oil on dry skin to a velvety smooth lather into the face; the cleansing oil whisks away all traces of makeup, dirt, without leaving the skin dry. It gets rid of even my thick, stubborn waterproof mascaras and eye makeup. The milky texture after applying water just makes it even more soothing to the skin and lets me know that the product is working and changing properties from being a clear oil to a light creamy liquid cleanser. It's a great piece to use at the end of the day after you abuse your skin through all the elements and makeup. The skin feels soft and hydrated even after washing, that an added moisturizer only helps keep your skin looking healthy and dewy. I've been using the product since 2003, and haven't looked back on any other all-in-one cleanser.

This is another great facial cleansing product from Shu Uemura. Like most of the cleansing oils from this brand the completely removes all of my makeup super-fast; even things like waterproof liner, mascara and even lip stains/tars are broken down and washed away with this cleanser. Even though it says “oil” it doesn’t leave an oily feeling after you’ve washed up which I love because my skin naturally produces a lot of sebum already. The thing that sets this cleansing oil apart from the others is that it contains an antioxidant green tea extract that clears out any pollutants and helps to keep your skin looking young. My skin feels so soft and clean when I’m done using this product and it looks soft and radiant too! The only thing I don’t like is (which is true with most Shu Uemura products) how expensive it can be, but I just think about how I am doing my skin a favor by purchasing this amazing product so it’s totally worth it!

leaves my face feeling WOW!!! so nice and smooths but NOT OILY!
