It contains the most olive oil and is truly an 'oil-only' cleansing product. 2. It doesn't sting the eyes. (However, there is a phenomenon where the vision becomes blurry) Unlike other irritating products that sting the skin immediately upon contact, this product does not have that effect. 3. The cleansing power is medium-high. It removed basic base makeup, eyeliner, and lipstick. However, since I rarely wear makeup these days, I haven't tested it on super long-lasting products like waterproof mascara. 4. It's fragrance-free, but has a slightly refreshing scent of natural herbs. Personally, I didn't find the scent to be overbearing. 5. The finish is not powdery, but rather oily, so the skin doesn't lose too much oil and moisture after cleansing. For those with skin that feels too tight and dry after cleansing, this product might be a good option.
Cons1. Even after extensive rolling, blackheads and whiteheads don't come out very well. I often use cleansing oils to remove sebum, but this product didn't work for that. 2. Considering the price, is this product really a must-buy? 3. When it accidentally gets in the eyes, it blurs the vision. As someone with poor eyesight, this was a bit inconvenient. 4. Without a separate pump, it's difficult to use. The opening of the bottle is extremely wide, making it very hard to control the amount. 5. There is a lot of residual oil, so you'll need to emulsify it well and it's best to do a second cleanse.
TipIf I had the option to choose between this product and another cleansing oil with better value, I would likely go with the other product.

Cons• When removing the eye makeup, it gets into the eyes and makes it hard to see • There is a slight oily residue left after washing the face
TipUsing your hands to wipe off the makeup works much better than using cotton pads

The amount that comes out with one pump is not much more than other cleansing oils, so it depends on the intensity of your makeup how many times you need to pump it. It's not too watery and has an appropriate viscosity, so the rolling sensation is good, and there is no stuffy or dry feeling after rinsing it off. Normally, using a cleansing oil means removing full makeup, so you will likely do a double cleanse with a foam cleanser or the like, so the finishing feel is not a major concern, but this seems to be a decent product.
ConsThe pump is a separate purchase, so more money needs to be spent, but if you plan to continue using this cleansing oil, you could just buy the main product next time and transfer the pump from this one.
TipIf you're looking for a reasonably priced and effective cleansing oil among department store brands, this could be a solution!

It's not too light and has a good weight to it, with a pleasant fragrance, so I used it for a long time. Makeup, including eye makeup and lipstick, can be removed thoroughly without needing a separate makeup remover. The price is also not too expensive. Compared to the popular Shu Uemura cleansing oil, this product has better cost-effectiveness, and the Origins brand seems more natural-friendly.
ConsThese days, there are so many great cosmetic products available that I probably won't buy this level of product by paying the department store price anymore. Sorry, my former love, Origins...

It has a slightly refreshing scent, the oil has a nice weight to it, and it does a great job of thoroughly removing my child's makeup. It also seems to lighten blackheads a bit. After checking the ingredients, I feel reassured that it's a fairly standard formula.
ConsWhile it removes makeup well, there is a slightly tight feeling after cleansing. Especially when used in combination with the Origins Check & Balance Foaming Cleanser, it can leave a squeaky-clean sensation. You'll need to quickly follow up with moisturizer to prevent any tightness or dryness.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI wanted to settle on a cleansing oil, so I bought this one, even though I was a bit skeptical. After reading reviews on blogs, the reviews seemed really good. When I use this cleansing oil, as my skin is prone to milia and acne, I'm almost the only one who doesn't get any milia or acne, so I'd like to give it more than 4 stars! I really think the emulsification process is crucial. Even if you add a lot of water, if the emulsification doesn't work well, the oily slipperiness of the oil remains, which seems to clog the pores and cause acne. So I think products that emulsify well and rinse off the oil cleanly are good, and this product seems to do that job over 70%. That's why I don't get any milia!
ConsThere are some cleansing oils that can really bring out the built-up dead skin or sebum when you massage it on your skin, but this one doesn't seem to do that, which is a bit disappointing.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used to remove my makeup with cleansing cream, but since I have dry skin, it was very tight and stinging, so I switched to oil. I used to use Chino Sioya oil, but the amount was excessive and I used it up quickly. Strangely, the price that I could purchase for around 20,000 won has now risen to around 30,000 won. So I decided to look for a new product and found this mild product. 1. Blackhead: Oil products often advertise that they melt sebum, but in my case, I didn't see a dramatic effect, but if I roll my fingers over my face diligently, the sebum does come out quite a bit. 2. Cleansing power: After cleansing, I wipe with a toner, and there was no residue of impurities or foreign matter on the cotton pad. As for lip or eye makeup, I can't say for sure since I use a separate remover. 3. Moisturizing: My skin is somewhere between dry and very dry, and when I change the products I use, it's not too serious, but I do get redness and pimples. However, from the first use, there were no skin troubles, and there was no tightness. Overall, it's a satisfactory product, so I'm on my third bottle.
Cons1. Price: The price is really evil, around 36,000 won per bottle. I could only purchase it when it was on sale online or when I was willing to splurge. 2. Fragrance: The product doesn't have a distinct fragrance, but the initial scent is a bit ambiguous, so you'll need to get used to it after using it a few times. Personally, I didn't find it too bothersome, as I'm used to applying the trending carrot oil from a certain popular direct purchase website without much concern. 3. Cloudy phenomenon: I didn't mind it since I rinse it off with water, but when I had my boyfriend use it, he really struggled with the cloudy vision when rinsing it off (of course, you can just close your eyes while rinsing, but he was quite startled). So if you don't like the whitish residue that appears when you open your eyes during cleansing, you might want to consider this. The Chino Sioya product didn't have this issue to the same degree, so this one seems a bit more pronounced.
TipThe online reviews often mention that the product comes with a pump dispenser. When I first purchased it, I just got the oil without knowing, and had a hard time controlling the amount when using it. It would just gush out, and I almost wasted a lot of it. So when you purchase it, make sure to get the dedicated pump from the same store. It's really helpful for controlling the amount and saves a lot. +) The pump costs around 1,600-2,000 won, and if you're hesitant, you can also buy a universal pump dispenser from Daiso and decant the oil into it, which works well too.

ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about it, and it seems like it can be used comfortably without any burden.

It removes eye makeup well and is non-irritating, so I'm very satisfied with it.
ConsThe only downside is that you have to buy a separate pump dispenser.
