Best Makeup Remover Ever.
Hi, I’m Finn and I’ll be posting here from time to time while Britt’s off conquering the world. Or shopping. Why? Because I’m a giver, a goddess, a saint. Plus, I love to shop probably as much as Britt does.
I hate makeup removers. I’m not kidding. I’ve never used them, mostly because I can’t stand being blinded while trying to get my mascara to come all the way off. And then I discovered Deep Cleansing Oil from DHC. And the clouds parted and the sun shone. I tried it, I love it and I’ve never looked back.
Deep Cleansing Oil is made from ultra-purified extra virgin olive oil and does exactly what it says it will do. It takes off every trace of mascara (yes, even waterproof), liner, foundation, lip stain, whatever, then rinses clean. Just cleanse as usual afterward. You won’t find a single black smudge on your towels ever. And you won’t be left with a greasy face either. Yet it doesn’t dry you out. I’ve always been on the oily side, but as I’ve gotten older I’m finding my face is getting drier. This stuff has worked for me through it all.
The best part? It lasts and lasts. Just a squirt on your hand at night will get all your makeup off the first time. The six-ounce bottle lasts me at least six months. Considering that, $25 for a bottle is not bad at all. You can also try a smaller, two-ounce bottle for $12.50.
I’m really fickle when it comes to things like cleansers and moisturizers because I’m easily dazzled by interesting packaging and wildly inaccurate effectiveness claims (despite the fact that I began my career as an advertising copywriter), so when I recommend something like this, you can rest assured I am crazy in love with it because it works. I’ve been using it longer than I can remember. If they ever discontinue this stuff, I’m hoarding it like a Today sponge. Try it. If you don’t like it, send it to me.
Legal nonsense: No consideration (that’s cash and/or product) was provided to me by DHC (or by anyone else for that matter). I’m simply a loyal customer who likes to share my finds with others. See the giver-goddess thing up top.






Hmn, I just might get this for my boyfriend’s mom!
i’ve never heard of the stuff. thanks for the review…you make the product sound pretty damn amazing. although i hate paying shipping so i rarely shop online (i know, i know). any idea where i can actually buy this stuff?
@hello haha narf, They don’t sell it in stores. Mail-order only. Maybe you can team up with someone else and order a few so you can get free shipping?
I’ve heard lots of good things about DHC. I’d be interested to try it out at some point, although I love my Clinique Wash Away gel cleanser.
Hmmmmmmmmmm. I’ll have to check this out.
Update kids: DHC is offering 10% off all online orders today through 11:59 EST.
I’ve used DHC before. Their products are great! If I remember correctly, they will send you samples.
Ah, you have to pay $2 for a catalog but you get samples and a $5 gift certif.
Jeez Louise, could I get this all in one comment?! https://www.dhccare.com/DHC/catalogrequest.aspx
@Monique, They send samples with purchase and there are some in the catalog as well. The good new is that one you order the first time they send you catalogs (with samples) for free.
