As the first step in the Korean “double cleansing” routine, Dokdo Cleansing Oil gently yet thoroughly does the dirty work. The formula is based on the pristine deep-sea waters of Ulleungdo Island, which support the skin’s balance with 72 types of natural minerals. A blend of sunflower, macadamia, and jojoba oils instantly dissolves oil-based impurities while keeping pores clear. Its light texture instantly turns milky upon contact with water and rinses off completely, leaving no oily residue—just soft, refreshed skin.
Product benefits:
- Effective makeup removal: Removes long-lasting makeup, waterproof sunscreen, and sebum.
- Deep cleansing: Helps clear clogged pores and reduces blackheads.
- Hydration and balance: Its mineral-enriched formula does not strip the skin of its natural moisture.
- Soothing effect: With panthenol, it reduces irritation and enhances the skin’s comfort.
- Fresh finish: Rinses off completely, leaving the skin clean and balanced.
Key Ingredients:
- Ulleungdo deep-sea water: A mineral-rich ingredient that helps maintain hydration and soothes the skin.
- Plant Oils (Sunflower, Macadamia, Jojoba): Effectively break down impurities while nourishing and softening the skin.
- Glycerin: Binds moisture, preventing dryness during cleansing.
- Panthenol (Vitamin B5): Has a skin-soothing effect and supports the protection of the skin barrier.
- Mild emulsifiers: They allow the oil to be rinsed off easily and thoroughly with water.
Our cosmetologist’s recommendation:
- For all skin types that require gentle yet thorough facial cleansing.
- For those who use sunscreen or long-lasting makeup on a daily basis.
- For sensitive or dehydrated skin, where irritation-free, moisturizing cleansing is important.
How to use: Squeeze 2–3 pumps of oil into your dry palms, and massage it into your dry face. Add a little water to turn the oil into a milky emulsion, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. For best results, follow up with a water-based cleanser (e.g., Dokdo Cleanser). Use daily, morning or evening.
Tip: We recommend performing a patch test before first use!
