The latest craze is cleansing oils, and Shiseido has jumped on the bandwagon with its Ultimate Cleansing Oil. This product is a rinse off oil-based cleanser which has been formulated for easy removal of makeup. It applies very easily and rinses off, leaving no sensation of stickiness.
Over the past year, I have used a number of cleansing oils. Unlike some oils, it does not leave any residue. It takes off a full face of makeup and any sunscreen. Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil is perfect for dry skin. Unlike harsh soaps, the oil based cleanser does not leave a dry tight feeling.
Since trying this product my skin appears more toned and even. I have noticed that with the oil cleanser my skin feels firmer. It has not made my pores bigger, nor has it lead to any breakouts. When I wash my face, I make sure to wash along my hairline so I do not break out in that area. With the Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil, the area rinses clean, which is evident by the clean cotton ball that I use when I tone. Prior to using Shiseido, I suffered from some redness on my face. Since using the product, I am not as red.
The smell of the Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil is light and fresh. It has a fluid texture and seems to get deeper into my skin than previous cleansing oils. My face feels fresh and clean after using it.
There are a couple of cons with this product. First, when traveling the container has a tendency to leak. Therefore, I would pack it in a plastic storage bag. Second, the price of Shiseido is higher compared to products you would find in a drugstore.
The Shiseido Ultimate Cleansing Oil retails for $25.00. It may be purchased at Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue and Sephora.
