Kose Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil-230ml (japan import) [Badartikel]

I like the small . Easy to use and apply. I bought this I think almost 2 years ago 😅 I don't do double Cleansing every night, just when I wear makeup, so for that took me so long to finish this bottle. Thanks GOD I got a refill (the pink packet) and just now (Dec 2024 ) I started using it . Good quality, soft scent, thickness it is like oil (it is oil after all), good value for money, for me was very durable.I do recommended if you use makeup, helps a lot to clean your skin an pores deeply.

I admit i just recently got into into oil cleansers and this is only the second one I’ve tried, but I love it! The smell is ever so slightly citrusy with an oily leaning, it’s better than I make it sound but it’s subtle enough that it shouldn’t really be a deciding factor in buying it.I have combination oily and dry skin, and find that my cheeks and chin especially can easily dry out from using face washes. Even dove soap can dry me out quite a bit. It sorts itself out if I don’t moisturise after an hour or so in the worst case scenario but if you gave dry skin I’m sure you’re aware of that tightening feeling you get after using a drying product. I’ve used this product 3 times now. I massage it in for about 60 seconds on dry skin then wet my hands and massage the oil into a milky texture, also for about 60 seconds, then I simply rinse it off with water and pat dry. I have not experienced tightening of my skin once. I feel a slight sensation of dryness particularly on my chin, but it is so mild that it pretty much goes away in minutes. My skin feels soft after use but doesn’t, at least to my eyes, make me look greasy, which I admit was a slight concern.It cleanses well, has no unpleasant smells or effects on the skin and makes skin feel soft and supple. Would highly recommend.

This cleansing oil melts away makeup effortlessly without irritating the skin. It has a lightweight texture; no specific smell and rinses off easily without leaving a greasy residue. Leaves the skin feeling soft and clean. Good to use daily but I prefer the pink version.

Love this oil based cleanser. It has a faint citrusy smell which I like. Its very easy to use; I use it as part of my regular double cleansing routine. The bottle and pump are clearly built to last. The cleanser emulsifies well and it cleans off very easily unlike many oil based cleansers. I like to take time to work in the cleanser so that it can work deep in the pores.

First of all the packaging: comes in a nice pump bottle which is convenient and clean. Most of the oil cleansers in this price range in the drug store comes in a pour bottle which quickly becomes a slippery mess and leaves residue on surfaces. The pump puts out the perfect amount for your face and neck. So no wasted product.The scent: its subtle and pleasant, reminds me of olive oil even though that's not in the ingredients.Value for money: amazing, drug store own brands are usually twice the price per 100ml for a lower quality product in less convenient packaging.The oil cleanser itself: its ever so slightly thicker in viscosity than other oil cleansers I've tried and I find it to be quite beneficial. It spreads on the skin easier, feels less slimy when rubbing it in, and doesn't migrate into my eyes if I leave in on my skin for a few minutes to really loosen up clogged pores. As for washing it off, it turns into a milky substance when rubbed with water, much easier and with no residue compared to other affordable oil cleansers. The texture of it on my skin and residue left behind is quite important to me as I'm autistic with touch sensitivities, so something slight can put me off a product even if it does wonders for my skin. I wouldn't recommend using just this product on its own, but paired with another type of cleanser as part of a double cleansing routine to really get the full cleansing effect as is standard in Japanese/korean skincare.To note I also use this product with an electric face brush with a silicone head, as I would usually with my face wash, so that would boost its effects somewhat.I may update the review in a few weeks on how it's improved my acne and clogged pores, but in just 2 days I'm seeing improvement even though the same day I started with this I also added a heavier day and night cream to my routine, so it's very promising.

I recently used up the Kose Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil, and it's a bit of a mixed experience. Firstly, it's scented, and as someone with very sensitive skin that's prone to acne, this aspect didn't quite align with my preferences.While the cleansing oil did its job in removing makeup and impurities effectively, the fragrance component made me a bit hesitant, especially given my skin's sensitivity. It's not uncommon for scented products to be a bit too harsh for acne-prone skin.That being said, if you have normal skin that isn't as sensitive or prone to acne, you might find this cleansing oil to be a delightful addition to your skincare routine. The formula itself is effective, leaving the skin clean and refreshed. It's a classic case of a product that might work wonders for one skin type but might not be the best fit for another.

I use this oil when I double cleanse after wearing make up. I use this first to break down the foundation (infallible by Loreal) then a foaming and hydrating cleanser as the second wash once my make up is mostly removed. Works really well at lifting make up and is gentle on sensitive skin. Smells slightly woody/herbal which is very pleasant. Not heavily perfumed, which I like! The pump mechanism is solid and handy. Great value for money and lasts a long time! Only one pump needed per cleanse.
