Featuring a blend of tallow, green tea oil, and vitamin E, this cleanser works to purify, hydrate, and balance your complexion without stripping it of its natural oils.

Whether you have dry, oily, sensitive, or acne-prone skin, The Oil Cleanser is a perfect addition to your skincare routine.
Why Choose an Oil Cleanser?
Oil cleansers have become increasingly popular in skincare routines, and for good reason. They are incredibly effective at breaking down makeup, sunscreen, and impurities that water-based cleansers often miss, all while nourishing and hydrating the skin. Here’s why The Oil Cleanser is a game-changer:
- Effortlessly Removes Makeup and Impurities
Oil-based cleansers are ideal for dissolving makeup, dirt, sweat, and excess oils. The rich oils in The Oil Cleanser—like green tea oil and tallow—bind to impurities on your skin, gently lifting them away without harsh scrubbing. Even waterproof makeup and long-lasting formulas come off effortlessly, leaving your skin fresh and clean.
- Hydrates and Nourishes
Unlike traditional foaming cleansers that can strip the skin of its natural oils, The Oil Cleanser nourishes while it cleanses. Infused with vitamin E, this cleanser helps to hydrate the skin, leaving it soft and balanced. It also helps protect the skin's natural moisture barrier, ensuring your skin stays supple and smooth after each wash.
- Suitable for All Skin Types
Whether you have dry, oily, acne-prone, or sensitive skin, The Oil Cleanser is formulated to be gentle yet effective. It helps balance the skin's oil production and won't clog pores, making it an excellent option for those with acne-prone or oily skin.
- Rich in Antioxidants
Green tea oil is packed with antioxidants, which help protect your skin from environmental damage and reduce signs of aging. These antioxidants also work to soothe and calm inflammation, making the cleanser ideal for sensitive or irritated skin.
How to Use Our Oil Cleanser:
Using The Oil Cleanser is simple and effective. Follow these easy steps for a refreshing and nourishing cleanse:
Apply to Dry Skin
Start with dry skin. This is key for oil cleansers to work effectively. Pump a small amount of The Oil Cleanser into your hands and apply it to your dry face. Gently massage the oil onto your face and eyes in circular motions. This will help dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and any impurities on the skin’s surface. Don’t forget to gently massage around the eyes to remove mascara and eyeliner.
Emulsify with Water
Once the oil has had time to dissolve the makeup and dirt, add a small amount of warm water to your face. This will emulsify the oil, turning it into a milky consistency. Continue massaging for about 30 seconds to a minute, allowing the oil to fully break down any remaining impurities. The warm water helps to remove the cleanser more effectively, while still maintaining hydration in the skin.
Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse your face thoroughly with warm water. You’ll notice how soft and smooth your skin feels—never tight or stripped. Pat your face dry with a soft towel.
Follow with Moo Elixir's 'The Toning Mist', serum of choice, and our 'Hydrating Facial Cream'.
After cleansing, your skin is prepped and ready for the next steps in your routine.
Pro Tip: Double Cleansing
For those who wear heavy makeup or sunscreen, consider using the oil cleanser as part of a double-cleansing routine. After using The Oil Cleanser, follow up with a gentle water-based cleanser to remove any remaining impurities. This will leave your skin deeply clean without feeling dry or irritated.
