I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green. Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...
Thoughts:
- Stings and irritates my eyes so badly
- Highly fragranced, not pleasant
- Difficult to wash off, takes a lot of time: when water is applied, no matter the amount, it sticks to the skin
- It is a must to use another cleanser after this oil, because it just won't budge and leaves residue!
- Doesn't emulsify beautifully or fast
- I'm not sure if this cleansing oil is breaking me out a little too, but if it is it's very minor
- The bottle design is bad, it squirts the product everywhere, you have to be careful with it
- I didn't get any grits while massaging
+ Nice liquidy consistency straight out from the bottle, the slip on the face while massaging is great, no need to tug your skin or use a huge amount of oil
+ Price point is good
+ Oil lasts long because you don't need very much of it (1-2 pumps)
+ Well, the pink bottle and liquid look very attractive

* I think if The Face Shop's Rice Cleansing Oil would've been my first cleansing oil experiment it also would've been the last and only one
* I just can't wrap my head around the hype about this product, why is it so popular everywhere? There's nothing good about it except the slip?
* Tosowoong's Apricot Cleansing Oil is superior compared to Rice Cleansing Oil: it smells nice, doesn't irritate eyes, emulsifies fast and easy, doesn't leave residue, is just as affordable
* But for actually cleansing the skin in the end, The Face Shop and Tosowoong are similar and okay, not that good for eye make-up I would say
* I suppose rice water/extract has some brightening results for some people but I don't think I'm one of them
* I have used maybe 1/5 of the bottle and still just dislike it everyday
* I made everything sound like it's a terrible product and doesn't work for anyone but you know, it's not unusable and doesn't wreak a havoc on my skin so that's quite well already (for someone with problem skin)

Price:
USD 10.18
Bought from:
Jolse
Buy again?
Absolutely not. I'm trying to figure out if I suffer through the whole bottle or if I can give it to someone!
Worth the money?
Sadly, even with the low price, I don't think so as it's so unpleasant to use. It does last a long time and is maybe worth a try if you're just interested in trying different things. I would not recommend it for a sensitive skin though.
