1x NUMBUZIN No.1 Easy Peasy Cleansing Oil
Perfect for newbies to oil-cleansing, NUMBUZIN’s No. 1 Easy Peasy Cleansing Oil truly lives up to its name! Enriched with 4 nourishing plant-derived oils – Corn Oil, Macadamia Seed Oil, Tigernut Root Oil, and Sunflower Seed Oil – the minimal formula softens and conditions skin while also removing oil-based impurities like makeup, SPF, and excess sebum. The oils also work to dissolve blackheads and sebaceous filaments embedded within the pores - tests have shown this cleanser to reduce clogged pores by 94.39% and reduce blackheads by 17.42% in just two weeks!* With a light consistency and non-irritating formula, it’s even gentle enough to use around your eyes to remove stubborn, waterproof makeup. We recommend it for all skin types, including sensitive skin – however, those with very sensitive skin should do a patch test prior to use, due to the presence of fragrance in the formula.
*This test was completed by a skin research centre in Korea, according to the brand’s disclosed report; results may vary, depending on the individual.
At a glance:
- Suits all skin types, including sensitive skin
- Removes sebaceous filaments and unclogs pores
- Nourishes skin with plant-derived oils
