Vacuum Cleansing Oil

Not gonna lie, it's weird to me that something with an oil base doesn't make my face oily. My brain parts every single time assume that my face will be greasy after I use this Vacuum Cleanser, but nope. It's clean as a whistle. And it feels amazing. So even though my brain parts are confused, my face is fabulous, fresh and foxy.

I've tried this cleansing oil for about a month now, every other day before using the Kombucha cleanser, and I love it. I was certainly skeptical of the oil cleanser for my oily skin, but it did not worsen my acne. What it did was make the areas of my skin that were dry more moisture restored and happy. I did it every other day or as needed when I thought there were areas of my face that needed general moisture and care. If I use it every day, which I can, I have to be careful not to put on the other creams too heavily bc my face will look a little more oily by the end of the day. I love to use it for a face massage and am looking forward to trying it with the charcoal mask. :)

I am acne-prone and have oily skin, so I was pretty skeptical of oil cleansing. BUT, I have been changed! Vacuum Oil is a game changer. After use, I can literally feel air coming into my pores because I’m so clean. This is a staple in my routine now.

I have been a skincare product junkie off and on over the years, swinging between department store brands and drugstore offerings (when it seemed the expensive products didn’t seem to do much.) The cleansing oil and every product I have used from SB have made a visible difference. The oil rinses off and takes my makeup with it. Good for gua sha massage, too. The regular size will last for at least six months because you really do not need much per use. I look forward to my evening skincare routine with this as my initial step. I don’t know how an oil-based product sucks the gunk out of pores and off skin, but it works.

I had to stick it out with this cleanser to learn to love it! I initially tried the travel size and when it arrived, I was surprised at how thick and not viscous it was. I went for the full size and the viscosity is WAY more viscous - interesting that oil does that. I've begun oil cleansing both morning and night. I follow this cleanser with the goat milk cleanser and my skin feels happier and my pores feel cleaner. This oil does feel more luxurious than any other oil cleanser I've tried, and I've tried many of them over the past few years!

4 stars because for the size, this is a pretty expensive oil cleaner in my opinion. Don't be surprised when you receive the bottle and realize how small it is. I am predicting I'll be going through a bottle pretty quickly. There are a lot cheaper oil cleansers out there that I think perform better if your goal is to wash off make up and get grits. However, I do think this oil cleanser provides skin benefits beyond just "cleansing."
