Burt's Bees Cleansing Oil with Coconut & Argan, 180 millilitre

Product Information

Adding good oils to your skin also helps counter your skin’s sebum (oil). When your skin is stripped of its natural oils, it produces more to compensate for the loss. How to Choose the Best Oil-Based Cleanser Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Eye Cream is a lightweight eye cream that is said to intensely hydrate the skin for soft, supple skin and youthful-looking eyes. This eye cream is formulated for normal to dry skin and can be used in both the morning and in the evening. It is dermatologist tested, non-comedogenic, and formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and SLS. One of the key ingredients in this eye cream is clary sage. Clary sage thrives in its harsh Mediterranean environment due to its ability to trap and retain moisture. It is thought that this ingredient can help the skin better retain moisture, resulting in soft, supple skin. Burt's Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil is a concentrated blend of rosehip seed oil, jojoba oil, and evening primrose oil, which are all naturally rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Specifically, rosehip seed oil contains provitamin A, mostly as beta carotene. Beta carotene has the ability to increase cell turnover and promote regeneration in the outer layers of the skin. Over time, this can help even out skin tone and add a glow to the skin. Jojoba oil is unique in that it mimics the skin’s natural sebum more closely than any other oil. Research has demonstrated that jojoba oil improves the skin’s barrier function and helps to prevent transepidermal water loss. It also has proven anti-inflammatory effects and can impart soothing effects upon application. Evening primrose oil contains a high content of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). GLA improves the skin’s barrier function and provides anti-inflammatory effects. The combination of these three oils in the Burt's Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil is said to leave your skin feeling hydrated, smooth and supple, as well as reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Burt's Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil should be used in the morning and evening after cleansing but before your moisturizer. Our love for all beings runs deep.

When you use a cleansing oil to remove oily makeup and sebum, you’re employing the chemical principle called “like dissolves like.” Basically, oils will dissolve other materials that have a similar chemical structure.

And another 5-star review says, “I REALLY enjoy this cleansing oil. My face in just a few days is SO much happier since it’s not being stripped by my cleansers I have been using and I tried them all. NEVER discontinue this gem. No breakouts. Doesn’t strip skin and feels healthy afterwards.” You should always wear sunscreen, but you may not wear makeup each day. In that case, Dr. Russak says it’s fine to double cleanse only a few times a week when your skin and mind really need to detox. “I love using Erno Laszlo Double Cleanse on the weekends,” says Dr. Russak. “The extra step feels like an indulgence and a mental break.” Many Burt’s Bees products contain high concentrations of fragrance, which could lead to skin sensitivity reactions and even skin damageI love that this cleansing oil removes the need to use makeup wipes or another harsh makeup remover. Using this oil, I combine removing makeup and cleansing in one easy step. It saves time and energy, and leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed. The fact that it is an oil means that my skin is left well moisturised, and never dries out my skin.

If an oil cleanser is a new concept to you, not to worry. Here at the Derm Review, we’ve reviewed hundreds of products with a scientific lens to ensure you’re creating a skincare routine that’s safe and effective. Ahead, 12 of the best oil cleansers all skin types can get on board with. Best Oil Cleanser: The List Additional key ingredients in Burt’s Bees Hand Salve include sweet almond oil, sunflower seed oil, and beeswax. All of these ingredients function as emollients to soften and moisturize hands. Face washing is the cornerstone of any skincare routine but unfortunately, many traditional cleansers strip the skin of natural oils that protect the lipid layer, resulting in dryness, flakiness, and irritation. It can also exacerbate acne by causing the skin to produce even more oil as a self-defense mechanism — which, in turn, results in more blemishes and clogged pores. The easy solution to this dilemma is to start using the best oil cleanser. Who else has washed their face with a regular cleanser at night only to find streaks of foundation on your towel as you dry off? Even though you have scrubbed your facefor the last 30 seconds, there are still traces of makeup.

Furthermore, beeswax functions as a humectant by drawing moisture into the skin, and also as an emollient to soften the skin. It forms a soft, protective barrier on the surface of skin, which helps to prevent evaporation of the skin’s natural moisture. The barrier also protects the skin from environmental factors that may irritate the skin. Inside Burt’s Bees Cleansing Oil you’ll find a base of coconut-derived emollient caprylic/capric triglyceride, as well as a high concentration of Crambe Abyssinica seed oil. These ingredients not only help to dissolve makeup and impurities on the skin, but also offer a silky and cushioning skin feel, similar to the feel of silicones. The basic premise behind using oils to cleanse skin is that like attracts like (oil absorbs oil, after all). Meaning using oils to cleanse will help remove the excess oil on your skin in addition to binding to dirt and removing it without damaging the skin barrier — but won’t cause excessive dryness as many conventional cleansers can. These formulas often contain sulfates that can be harsh on the skin, especially sensitive skin. Even if you have oily skin, you can use a drugstore cleansing oil without fear of breakouts or clogged pores. You just have to choose the right non-comedogenic oil and follow up with a cleanser to ensure you remove any leftover residue. Removing the oil is very simple. Simply remove the cleansing oil with warm water and a facial cloth or flannel. All the makeup will be removed, and you will see a very clean face with absolutely no traces of makeup. This is fabulous as your skin is super clean, but will never be tight or dry. As your skin is now clean and with all makeup removed, you can now be confident that all your skincare like serums and moisturiser will now soak in and work better.Bottom Line: A lightweight, fragrance free eye cream that should help to hydrate and soothe the skin around the eyes.

What Are The Key Ingredients in Burt’s Bees Skin Care Products? Even if you're not a fan of oils, the best cleansing oil might just convert you.

Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream is a soothing blend of botanical extracts that is said to moisturize sensitive skin all day without causing redness or irritation. It contains 98.9% natural ingredients and is fragrance free. One of the key ingredients in this cream is Gossypium Herbaceum (cotton) flower extract, which is known to help to soothe and protect the skin. Cotton flower extract may also assist in improving skin barrier function. A strong, intact skin barrier helps to prevent water loss and keeps harmful environmental irritants out of the skin. Another key ingredient in the Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream is Aloe vera leaf juice. Extracts from the Aloe vera leaf are well known to soothe skin and provide anti-inflammatory effects. The benefits provided by Aloe vera are due to the 75 active phytochemicals found in this plant, such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes, lipids, sugars, salicylic acids, and amino acids. Aloe vera is also a humectant, which means it can attract moisture and draw that moisture into the upper layers of skin. A final key ingredient in the Burt's Bees Sensitive Daily Moisturizing Cream is Oryza Sativa (rice) extract. Rice is rich in amino acids, vitamin E, and ferulic acid (a potent antioxidant). Rice extract has an anti-inflammatory and calming effect when applied to the skin, while also providing both short- and long-term skin hydration. For example, one review says, “I have been using this cleansing oil for about a year now and I absolutely love it. It removes my makeup with ease and no harsh rubbing. I feel it also leaves my skin feeling great. It does not create dryness or oil on my face.”
