FAQs
What is oil cleansing?
Oil cleansing is a skincare method that uses oils to cleanse the skin, rather than traditional soap or foam-based cleansers. It works on the principle that "like dissolves like" — oil dissolves excess oil, dirt, makeup, and impurities on the skin, leaving your complexion clean, nourished, and hydrated.
What are the benefits of oil cleansing over traditional cleansing methods?
- Gentle on the skin: Oil cleansing doesn’t strip the skin of its natural oils, unlike foam-based cleansers, which can leave skin feeling tight and dry.
- Effective at removing makeup and impurities: Oil dissolves oil-based impurities, such as makeup and sunscreen, more efficiently than water-based cleansers.
- Maintains skin balance: By replenishing the skin's natural lipids, oil cleansing helps prevent dryness or irritation.
- Nourishing and hydrating: Oils provide essential fatty acids and antioxidants that keep the skin hydrated, soft, and healthy.
How does oil cleansing work?
Oil cleansing works by applying an oil-based cleanser to dry skin. The oil binds with the oil-based impurities on your face (like makeup, sunscreen, and excess sebum). After massaging the oil into the skin, you add water, which emulsifies the oil into a milky texture that can be easily rinsed away, taking the dirt and makeup with it.
Will oil cleansing make my skin greasy or cause breakouts?
It’s a common misconception that oil cleansing make your skin greasy or clog pores. In fact, the right oils, like those in Ghee Cleansing Oil, can help balance oil production and actually reduce breakouts by cleansing the skin without stripping its natural lipids.
How often should I use Ghee Cleansing Oil?
You can use oil cleansing daily, especially if you wear makeup or sunscreen regularly. Many people find it works best as a part of their evening routine to remove makeup and impurities.
Can I use Ghee Cleansing Oil in the morning, too?
While oil cleansing is most commonly used in the evening to remove makeup and impurities, you most certainly can also use it in the morning. However, at Gaia Uncovered we believe in "Less is More". We think just some warm water on the face is enough in the mornings!
Will oil cleansing help with acne?
Oil cleansing can actually help manage acne by preventing the skin from overproducing oil (a common cause of clogged pores and breakouts).
Can oil cleansing help with dry or flaky skin?
Absolutely! Oil cleansing is fantastic for dry or flaky skin because it helps replenish moisture while removing dead skin cells. Unlike foaming cleansers that can strip away moisture, oil cleansing helps maintain the skin’s lipid barrier, keeping it hydrated and smooth.
