What I Like

  • EWG Rating: 2 — low hazard, reflecting a relatively clean ingredient profile for an oil-based facial cleanser.

  • The formula relies entirely on organic carrier oils and botanical extracts, with no petroleum-derived ingredients.

  • Jojoba, apricot, avocado, castor, and rosehip oils effectively dissolve makeup and sunscreen while supporting the skin barrier.

  • Vitamin E provides antioxidant support to help protect skin from oxidative stress.

  • Leaves skin clean, soft, and balanced — not stripped or greasy.

  • Works beautifully for normal, combination, and slightly sensitive skin types.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • This formula contains essential oils (orange, geranium, lavender, peppermint, rosemary), which may irritate very sensitive or compromised skin barriers.

  • As with all oil cleansers, it’s important to rinse thoroughly to prevent residue — especially if you are acne-prone in certain areas.

  • The presence of citrus essential oil (orange) may increase sun sensitivity, particularly if used before prolonged sun exposure.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding Notes

  • The carrier oils (jojoba, apricot kernel, avocado, castor, rosehip) and vitamin E are generally considered low risk for topical use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

  • Because this formula contains multiple essential oils (including citrus, peppermint, rosemary, lavender, and geranium), many pregnancy-focused practitioners recommend limiting essential-oil–heavy skincare, particularly in the first trimester.
