P.CALM UnderPore Holy Basil Cleansing Oil 190ml | Instant Blackhead Reducing Pore Control Cleansing Oil with Holy Basil Extract for Sensitive Skin | Korean Skincare

I had been using a cleanser from Glossier for two years thinking it wasn’t too harsh or drying for an acne cleanser and was good enough at getting my makeup off gently. I decided to try this for double cleansing but I didn’t expect to be converted to oil cleansing forever. I do not want to go back to life before this product. I’m thirty two, my skin is combination, I struggle with blackheads and hormonal acne, and I live in a very dry climate. I’ve been using it since May and haven’t had a single full-blown pimple or even any new blackheads. I add one pump to dry clean hands, apply it to my face in circular motions, and massage for at least a full minute before adding a small amount of water to emulsify. Once it’s starts to feel milky and almost soapy I massage for another minute or two, slowly adding a bit more water and it takes off ALL of my makeup. It not the fastest technique and yes, it does take a minute to rinse it all off but my skin has never felt so soft and clean. It’s so great to finally find something that’s non-stripping. The smell is herbal and not too overpowering, I honestly look forward to it every day. I’m super happy with the quality for the price. I spend about $40 on cleanser annually, here’s to hoping this bottle gets me to the half way mark.

I have combination/dry skin and struggle with clogged pores in particular. After only a few days of use, this cleanser has already cleared my skin so much!!! It doesn’t feel too heavy, has a pleasant tea tree scent, and removes my waterproof mascara with ease. My skin is noticeably smoother after use and clears my pores without feeling tight or dry. Instead, I’m left with soft, fresh, clean, and hydrated skin. Side note: it worked for my skin MUCH better than the Anua Heartleaf cleansing oil and is more affordable too!

It works exactly as promised.

Ahhhhmazing. I truly love this oil. I was using it just at night at first, but I love the way it makes my skin look so much. I’m using it in the morning as well. I’ve been on a mission lately to not use any foundation and I feel like this stuff is helping my skin a lot. I get very red and irritated easily even though my skin is generally very good. I went ahead and bought a second bottle to keep in my to go bag and hit the subscribe button. Pretty sure I can’t live without this stuff anymore. I feel like my skin is generally an oily skin and this does not make it more oily whatsoever. It actually seems like it tames the oil a bit. I used to dust my face with a bit of translucent powder in the morning, but I’ve even stopped doing that.

Not as soapy as I thought it was going to be, I have to use at least 2-3 pumps because it runs down my hand which I don’t like
