Damascus Rose Cleansing Oil 2oz- Certified Organic

I use this oil as a skin cleanser and a moisturizer. Friends ask me for my skin care regime. Badger products are fantastic.

The glass bottles were not bubble wrapped. They slipped out of the packaging.

I recently purchased this face cleansing oil along with the post-cleansing Badger Damascus Rose Face Oil for moisturizing. I cannot express how much I love these products! I have been using both products for about a month. My skin feels so much more clean and moisturized, really. I've also noticed I've had maybe only 2 small pimples in the entire month - much fewer than I've been experiencing previously. With spot treatment and no picking on my part, they went away quickly and never got out of hand. Easily covered with concealer. I think this may have also just been expected since starting this routine would by default start drawing impurities to the surface. I have struggled with hormonal adult acne on/off for the last several years. I've tried everything to help with it but struggled to find something to consistently kept the breakouts at bay. Several months ago, I read that oil facial cleansing can actually help eliminate acne due to how much better it cleanses the skin. Since the oil in the cleanser is attracted to the sebum in your skin, the impurities in your sebum are brought to the surface and wiped away with the oil cleanser and a warm face cloth. Just like we learned in science class, 'like attracts like'. I don't know what took me so long to connect these dots! My face feels DEEPLY cleansed when I'm done washing my face, and yet the process is much more gentle on your skin. Admittedly, I was skeptical and fearful the oil may break me out more. I tried using coconut oil as a cleanser before buying this product, but eventually noticed my skin was breaking out even worse. I did some additional research and read that coconut oil has excellent properties for the skin, but is more comodogenic than other oils. This oil cleanser has a variety of oils that I've read online are the best options for face cleansing. It does not contain coconut oil. If you're worried about breakouts, don't be. Here's the routine I've been following: - Squirt 2-4 pumps of oil into my palms and rub the oil a bit in my palms before applying to my DRY face, neck, and chest area. How many pumps depends on how much makeup I wore and if I applied mascara that day. It removes mascara very easily, too. - Let the oil rest on your face while the water is warming up. Soak a wash cloth in pretty warm water. I've mostly been using these microfiber wash clothes I bought on Amazon. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LWIINUS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&th=1 -Press the warm wash cloth over my entire face and hold there for several seconds. Then I proceed to wipe away the oil, taking care to rinse the cloth after a couple of wipes and then using the opposite side of the wash cloth afterwards to avoid re-applying a dirty part of the cloth if it can be avoided. I sometimes use the same washcloth at night and the next morning without trouble. I never re-use the same cloth more than twice before replacing. - Once I've rinsed clean, I splash cold water on my face to close my pores. Then pat (don't rub) dry. - I've been adding a drop of tea tree oil to a couple pumps of the post-cleansing rose face oil and massaging that into the cleansed areas. I figured if I were going to break out, at least the tea tree oil might help. I then follow up with a nightly moisturizer (like Elta MD PM moisturizer). I just saw this same Badger brand sells a Beauty Balm that some people apply at night for extra moisturizing. I am going to order that since sometimes I do get a little eczema on my forehead, and the tea tree can be a little drying even when applied with the face oil. I've applied this same face oil and drop of tea tree oil in the morning before applying my daytime moisturizer (Elta MD AM moisturizer) and/or Elta's sunscreen. Elta MD products are great if you have acne prone skin. They use excellent ingredients that don't break skin out. The scent smells very nice. It's a light and natural rose scent...nothing synthetic. I don't know where this has been all my life. I'm so glad I started researching this and stumbled upon these products on Amazon! For reference, it's been a month and I still have about 1/4 the bottle of cleansing oil left and about 50% of the post-cleansing oil remaining in the original bottles. I hope this helps you in your decision!

It seems quite heavy. Btw Rami Malek uses it

Great face wash, so moisturizing and doesn't leave you feeling oily.
