I received this product for free from Picky and HANSKIN in exchange for my honest review.
The HANSKIN Pore Cleansing Oil PHA is a cleansing oil that is intended for sensitive or dry skin. It features PHA, which provides gentle exfoliation, removing dead skin cells and excess sebum.
Key Ingredients:
▪️ Soybean Oil
▪️ Sunflower Seed Oil
▪️ Roman Chamomile Flower Oil
▪️ Gluconolactone (PHA)
▪️ Apricot Kernel Oil
▪️ Squalane
▪️ Camellia Oil
▪️ Jojoba Seed Oil
▪️ Tea Tree Leaf Oil
▪️ Green Tea Extract
This oil cleanser comes in a large 300ml/10.14oz plastic bottle with a pump top. It has a lightweight slightly runny oily texture and a strong lemon scent.
I apply 1 full pump (2 if I’m wearing makeup) on dry hands and massage into the skin for about 20-30 seconds in a circular motion. Then I add a little water to emulsify. This changes the oil to a milky formula, which I continue massaging to ensure it dissolves all sunscreen and makeup. I rinse it all off after about 30 seconds with lukewarm water.
It does a good job removing sunscreen and makeup, without leaving any residue on my skin. It did burn my eyes, so I used a makeup remover to remove any eye makeup or mascara.
Initially I liked how it made my skin feel soft and hydrated, but after using for about a week I started experiencing some breakouts in the jawline area. There are several essential oils on the ingredient list, and once I stopped using, my skin cleared up.
I really liked how it cleared up clogged pores, but since I had some irritation, I probably wouldn’t purchase.
It contains the following essential oils: Orange Peel, Lavender, Geranium, Rosemary, Eucalyptus & Bitter Orange.
EOs can cause irritation for some people with sensitive skin so I was surprised they were included in a product intended for sensitive skin.
