How to Use
Dispense an appropriate amount of cleansing oil onto dry palms. Apply to dry face and gently massage in circular, rolling motions to dissolve makeup and impurities. Add a small amount of warm water to emulsify the oil, continuing to massage as the texture turns milky. Rinse thoroughly with warm water until all residue is removed. Follow with a water-based cleanser if double cleansing.
