Sometimes as soon as I get home at night, I will hop right into my shower and just when I get soaking wet, I will remember that I haven’t taken my makeup off yet. Cleansing oils are my product of choice for removing makeup and most need to be used on bone dry skin to effectively remove long-wearing makeup, and you’ll probably already know that if you’ve been reading RatzillaCosme for a while.
There’re many cleansing oils that claim to be equally effective when used on damp skin, and I have tried many of them, but they just don’t cut the mustard. Most still emulsify (turn milky white) on contact with damp skin. But, I was pleasantly surprised with Naive Bath-Use Cleansing Oil from Kracie! It’s like many of the more expensive, cleansing oils (dry use) that I really like — light texture and scent-free (no obnoxious fragrance or odd odour). It has quite a powerful yet non-stripping formula that melts makeup (even waterproof mascaras) on contact, even on damp skin.
The cleansing oil is formulated for use on wet skin so the formula takes slightly longer and more water to rinse away, but it doesn’t make much difference when you’re already in the shower or taking a long soak in the tub.
I really like the packaging; it’s sturdy, practical, and neutral and — furthermore — water doesn’t seep into the bottle through the neck, so I keep it right in the shower. Though for everyday use I still prefer my regular cleansing oils because they feel better at thoroughly deep cleansing skin, Kracie’s Naive Bath-Use Cleansing Oil really makes makeup removal hassle-free. So worth picking up if you’re looking for a cleansing oil that you can easily keep and use in the shower.
A 250ml bottle is ¥484 on Amazon Japan.
