Simple Hydrating Cleansing Oil

I love a cleansing oil so was excited to try the new Hydrating Cleansing Oil from Simple.

Made with 100% natural grapeseed oil this cleanser works to gently cleanse skin by dissolving make up and impurities, deeply cleansing the skin and pores and leaving your face feeling soft and smooth.

Like all cleansing oils the Simple hydrating cleansing oil works because oil attracts oil, so when massaged into dry skin, the formula attracts dirt and impurities, gently lifting them from your skin.

When you then apply a little warm water the oil emulsifies and transforms into a milky cleanser, gently cleaning your skin and easy to rinse away.

At just £6.99 it is one of the most reasonable oil cleansers I have tried and also one of the most lightweight.

It has a light, runny texture making it easy to apply and remove, with no greasy residue.

Despite its texture it does effectively remove most make up from your skin, however my skin did feel a tad dry after using it which I found odd from an oil cleanser.

That said, if you’re new to oil cleansing and don’t want to spend the earth on a product then I’d definitely recommend giving this a try.

The Simple Hydrating Cleansing Oil is available now and costs £6.99.
