      FAQ

      What does oil to a milk cleanser do?

      An oil-to-milk cleanser starts out as an oil and then emulsifies into milk upon contact with water. The oil component helps dissolve dirt, makeup and other impurities while the creamy consistency of the milky texture provides a gentle and refreshing cleanse. An oil-to-milk cleanser can be used alone or as the first step in a Double Cleanser routine.

      How long do you leave oil cleanser on your face?

      An oil-based cleanser, like our Milky Oil Cleanser + Makeup Melter, only needs to be on your face for the duration of your cleanse. After shaking the bottle and applying the cleanser directly to dry skin, add warm water and massage until milky. Once the cleanser transforms into milk, you can rinse.

      Can I use this milky oil cleanser to remove eye makeup?

      Yes, you can use our Milky Oil Cleanser + Makeup Melter to remove eye makeup, even the long-wear kind. It’s ophthalmologist tested and safe to use around the eyes.

      Can this oil cleanser be used as my everyday face wash?

      Yes, our Milky Oil Cleanser + Makeup Melter can be used as your everyday cleanser. It’s gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive. It’s dermatologist tested and skin pH friendly, which means it will not strip or cause discomfort if used daily. The cleanser can be used alone or as the first step in a Double Cleanse.

      What is the double cleansing method?

      The Double Cleansing method involves washing your face twice, with two different types of cleansers. The first step is an oil-based cleanser, like our Milky Oil Cleanser + Makeup Melter, to help dissolve impurities, like makeup, oil, sunscreen and excess sebum. The second cleanse requires a water-based cleanser (our favorite is our Checks and Balances™ Frothy Face Wash) to whisk away any remaining residue and impurities for skin that’s purified and refreshed.
