Now im not a big fan at all of face washes that dont lather up. With this face wash I couldn't actually care if it did or not because it just does its job so well. after washing my face for the first time with this product I could already see the results. My skin is so clean and smooth. Considering its an oil - dont jump to the conclusion that it will make your skin oily as a result. It just gives a perfect cleansed and fresh effect.
I would definitely purchase again and at a such a reasonable price how could I not.
Am I the only person who had a not so great experience with this product?
I bought this 2 weeks back because it is winter and I need a cleanser that will not dry out my skin. Seeing all these fantastic reviews of course I went to go buy it with no doubt that I will be satisfied with it. Now it is sitting in my bathroom mirror looking pretty in all it's blue glory.
Pros:> It does not leave my skin feeling dry after use.
>works ok when not removing make up but just using it as a cleanser.
Cons: I am not happy with the smell, I can't describe it but it is not pleasant.I have to hold my breath in when massaging it on my face.
>The 3 times I have used it to remove foundation did not work out well. I massaged the oil on my face took a bit of water and massage again to get the milky texture, rinsed and I ended up having sticky foundation on my face. The 4th time I massaged it in my face, took a bit of water and then wiped it off my face.
>I find that I still had to wash my face again to make sure it is clean or I will witness some of the foundation on a cotton pad when applying toner.
I think the product works fine if you have to do double cleansing or using it as an emollient. I wish I had a better experience.
So since my normal make up remover was discontinued I decided to try the Lipidol cleansing oil. I am very picky when it comes to skincare as my skin is a bit sensitive. I’ve been using this one for about 3 weeks and I absolutely love it. It removes all the make-up in one application and leaves nothing behind!! Mascara use to be an issue as the cleansing part was tricky; I hated the dark stains under my eyes after cleansing. With Lipidol everything is removed including the mascara.
I’ve also had an issue with what to use to clean my make-up brushes. The foundation brush specifically as the liquid foundation builds up on the brush. I decided to put some of the oil in my hand and rub my foundation brush through it, well what do you know! The make-up washed right out. The brush washed out clean and the brush texture remained the same. Normally my brushed go hard when washing it with a normal soapy substance, but the Lipidol oil did wonders for keeping my make-up brushes clean and soft.
In receiving this product i was very worried about reviewing it because i have super sensitive skin and i break out very easily! But i guess i was feeling brave and decided to test it on my neck, then the next day went to my chin, then my cheek, then half my face and eventually my whole face and boy was i surprised when i had no allergic reactions! This oil is amazing! It removed all my make up (including mascara which is such a challenge to remove), it doubled up as a "face wash" because i felt it didnt strip my skin like the face wash i was using, my skin was hydrated, fresh, and i needed no extra moisturiser like i usually do. My skin looked so great that my colleagues kept asking if i was pregnant because i was glowing! And they went out to clicks to get a bottle for themselves. Im totally in love with this product and il def but another bottle when this one is finished. I reccommend that everyone, especially those who wear make up, try this! Your skin will thank you!
I admit, I was skeptical before I first tried this product, since my skin is naturally oily and I wasn’t sure it would work for me. But I was wrong, this face cleansing oil is really effective and delivers on every promise.
Absolutely love this product and it has become a skincare daily essential for me. I love that it does a sterling job of cleansing the face, even the difficult black eyeliner and mascara which is always a mission! It leaves the skin feeling beautifully soft and is not harsh on the skin at all. My skin does not feel stretchy and dry after, which is great!
The product is beautifully packaged and what you see is what you get basically, simple and effective.
I would definitely recommend this product as a must have.
I absolutely love body oils and trying a new face oil was exciting but a little scary for me.
Firstly I love the packaging!! I love that it is simple; you can see what you are buying and that it is not in a carton box like most products are. They normally last a few days and then I find myself throwing the carton box out.
The Face oil is a light blue colour and the product has an amazing light Rosemary and Niaouli scent. It is not overpowering or anything, and if you aren’t about product scent, then you will be fine.
After applying the product like instructed and then rinsed my face with warm water (THREE EASY STEPS), my skin felt soft, silky and OMG, NOT OILY AT ALL.
My skin felt incredibly clean and moisturised. I didn’t even feel the need to put on moisturiser. I used a face wipe to test if it really removed everything – and it did!! There was NO RESIDUE LEFT; the face wipe came back absolutely clean. What about the tough waterproof mascara and eyeliner?? …It removed it perfectly and my eyes didn’t itch or anything.
I absolutely love this product and it has definitely become a new staple in my skincare routine.
A MUST-HAVE product that is also a budget buys at only R79.95 at selected Clicks stores.
I absolutely love body oils and this one didn’t disappoint at all! It absorbs easily into the skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated. I find it’s especially great for post-shaving as it nourishes and protects too. Plus it isn’t scented, which is great as it doesn’t interfere with one’s fragrance. It leaves a slight sheen on the skin but it isn’t oily or greasy.
I didn’t know just how badly I needed to change my skin cleansing routine until I tried Lipidol Cleansing Oil.
Unlike what most oils have tended to do, Lipidol did not leave my skin feeling sticky or clogged, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Lipidol was rather soft and nourishing. I also didn’t’ feel any need to put on moisturiser afterwards and my face felt soft, clean and rejuvenated.
All make up was moved with ease – even the tough eyeliner and mascara stains I often struggle with.
It truly exceeded my expectations and is definitely a product I would buy again in the future and incorporate into my daily skin care routine. It is also fairly priced for the size of the product – each use only needs a small application and the after effects are well worth it.
I was excited about reviewing this product as I have a very dry skin. The idea of combining oil with a cleanser was appealing to me.
First of all it looks beautiful. That gorgeous blue in that naked bottle really works.
I used 3 criteria to rate the product and this is my experience:
1. How it makes my skin feel
Amazing! None of that super stretchy feeling after cleansing my face. I did however have to moisturise after using it. My skin in very dry and I think this will give it that extra nourishment that it needs.
2. Ease of use
It is easy to use but it is different from what I am used to. You have to apply it on a dry skin and many times I wet my face out of habit. When you are conscious of it though it is easy to use
3. Does it actually work
I’m afraid this area did not fare so well with me. I use liquid eyeliner on most days and it struggles to remove it. Unless you massage your eye area for quite some time and if you get any of this product in your eyes it burns like CRAZY.
The verdict: I am now using this product in the morning because I love how it makes my skin feel.
It's been a good 10 days for me, I have been exclusively using the Lipidol cleansing oil on my face removing everyday makeup, sweat and makeup mixtures from gym and the general day to day dirt and grime built ups.
There are many things I love about Lipidol the first being the convenience of apply, wash and voila hydrated skin no harsh stripping. Of these 10 days I have experienced wonderful changes to my usually combination skin, I have oily areas around my nose, forehead, cheeks and chin which I control using blotting/translucent powders. I kid you not, from day 3 with Lipidol the good oils started to work together balancing out the natural oils in my skin. I use the Lipidol twice a day morning and evening cutting the cleansing routine in half leaving more time to 'wing that liner'.
I'm really all for convenience and Lipidol has given me just that.
I would really recommend the use of Lipidol cleansing oil to women with oily skin either for daily use or to use as a treatment for a period until your skin gets to the balance you desire. I'm totally happy with the new feel.
Oil and water don't mix, that's an old wives tale darling, Lipidol Cleansing oil is a definite keeper in my books.
Next I will be introducing my clients to this product, as a budding makeup artist I think I'm going to start using the oil on my clients as a light treatment before we start beating on the highlights!
Thank you BB beauties it's been real good. #ClearlyLipidol
This a great product that provides a double cleansing action.
works great at removing all traces of makeup and with a little water turns into a foamy cleanser.
it has a pleasant smell and also leaves skin feeling clean and refreshed. I thought that it would leave my skin looking and feeling oily but to my surprise it didn't. I find that it works great on my acne prone skin and have had less break outs since using this product.
After reading everyone’s reviews about this product, and my best friend making me try it at her place, I decided to buy it myself and actually see if it’s as good as everyone says.
Firstly, everyone is lying about how good it is…It’s not GOOD it’s AMAZING!!! And I can’t believe it took so long for me to actually go out and buy it.
In just three easy steps Lipidol Cleansing Oil left my skin feeling soft, moisturized and oh so silky. It wasn’t oily at all – which I thought would happen.
Unfortunately I have sensitive skin, I didn’t try it on my eyes to remove my eye makeup, but a lot of people seem to swear by it and that it works...I unfortunately would love to try, but won't be tempting fate. But everything else about the product is great.
With the Lipidol Face Cleansing Oil removing your makeup is as easy as 1,2,3 literaly!
1. Apply the oil to you dry face
2. Wet to emulsify and bind the dirt & makeup to the oil
3. Wipe clean
And that's it....a clean, refreshed and moisturized face! It just works, and trust me I would know because im a makeup artist and my face is my billboard!
Lipidol has developed a top of the range facial cleanser which removes makeup, dirt and grime in a simple but very effective way. with Lipidol there is no need to scrub hard or apply the product over and over, just a small amount will do just perfect. The cleanser is gentle on your face leaving no irritations at the same time leaving it feeling smooth and refreshed. I would recommend this product to all my friends and colleagues.
I was skeptical about using an oil to cleanse my face. I do not use makeup each day so i don't need to remove makeup often. I used it as a daily cleanser and it worked great- a few drops massaged into my skin a few minutes before jumping in the shower. Washed off nice and easily and my skin felt clean afterwards; not oily or greasy at all. thanks for sending this product to me to test! i really love the longevity of a product like this. I tried it out when i had used some thick mascara and it worked really easily to remove it without leaving racoon eyes!
One of my favorite cleansing methods is the oil cleanse. If you haven't heard of the 'oil cleansing method' before, click the link below for a quick all you need to know about the oil cleansing method.
http://www.theoilcleansingmethod.com/
Now that you know what the oil cleansing method is & how to do it, you've probably already figured the disadvantage to it.. Right? It's time consuming! Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it isn't really the ideal method of removing your makeup quick and easy after a long night when all you can think about is getting some beauty sleep! Not to mention all the muslin cloths that need to be used after every cleanse.
When I was offered to do a review on the Lipidol Cleansing face oil, I was indeed very keen. The Lipidol range comes from the South African beauty product Bio-Oil. There products are suitable for sensitive skin, non-comedogenic ( they don't block your pores) and very affordable as every product in their range retails for R80.00 at selected Clicks stores.
Lipidol aims to bring oils into your daily skincare routine so that the skins natural oils isn't stripped away and you're not left with tight dry skin in the end. Lipidol contains ingredients such as Roseship oil, pomegranate seed oil that has high antioxidant properties, as well as Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E among many other wonderful skin loving ingredients.
What really caught my attention about the Lipidol Face Cleansing oil is that it promises to emulsify when mixed with water on the skin and then simply rinse off! I couldn't imagine an oil rinsing off so easily
Soon after I had received this product in the mail, I decided to give it a try. I applied the oil to my face and massaged it well so that the oil binds with the dirt and makeup that is on my skin, thereafter I wet my hand and massaged my skin further. The oil then turned into a watery milky texture and I simply rinsed it off. ALL my makeup was taken off in one simple step which took me no longer than 3 minutes! After patting my skin dry, the Lipidol Face Oil left my skin feeling smooth, supple and most importantly, clean! Something I don't usually achieve with the regular oil cleansing method I had previously used ( I had to cleanse my skin again to get that fresh, oil free feeling).
My final verdict: this product is well worth it! I will most definitely be purchasing this when I run out.
*Please note that this product was sent to me, however, the review I have done on it is my personal opinion and in no way influenced by the company*
After receiving this Face Oil I actually wasn't convinced as I love my foam. For me, anything that doesn't foam just does not work - this includes shampoos, body washes, etc. I was convinced that as long as it does not foam, the it does not work. But I gave this a try anyway because quite honestly, I had nothing to lose.
I thought it was just gonna be a slap of grease on my face, especially because it was pure oil. Boy was I wrong! It kind of reminded me of baby oil - I followed the instruction to the tee - poured some oil onto my dry hands, massaged my face, added a bit of water after a while, watched the cream foam develop, massaged again, rinsed off and then blotted my face dry.
The first time I used it was after a very heavy night of partying and sweating - and I had the tell-tale "panda-eyes" from a heavy night. My mascara had actually bled onto my face (guess I need to look for a stay-put mascara next) LOL, Because on application, it immediately made my skin soft, I actually went on and applied it on the delicate eye area to remove my smoky eye shadow, dark liner and heavy mascara. Although we've been told that this is a no-go area, the oil just felt so pure, I just couldn't resist using it in the eye area, especially since it didn't require much rubbing. The make-up sort of bonded with the oil on application.
I have since used the oil at least 7 times, alternating between my usual cleanser.
With each use, my skin felt like a baby's fresh bottom afterwards (and you know how soft baby bottoms are). I've also never felt the need to use any moisturiser afterwards, especially since I used it with my evening bath. The skin was silky, beautiful, and definitely didn't have any tight feeling afterwards.
It truly has lived up to it's expectations. In actual fact, it's gone beyond what I expected!
Lipidol Face Oil is definitely worth it, and even if they doubled the price (shhhh), I'm adding it to my winter skin regime!
I absolutely love it! Thank you BB for yet another awesome product.
I have been using the Lipidol cleansing oil for just about 2 weeks now, and my first impression of this oil was a big, fat, LOVE! It removes makeup very well (even waterproof mascara, although it burns like a you-know-what if you get it in your eyes) it leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and hydrated. It doesn't strip your skin, but it also doesn't leave your skin feeling oily. My skin doesn't feel tight after using it, but I could feel I needed to moisturize afterwards.
After about a week of using it, I noticed my skin was breaking out a little bit, especially on my nose, forehead and jawline. As someone with very sensitive and problematic skin, I am very nervous to continue using this product, but I am going to stick it out for another week or two and see if my skin worsens or improves :)
If you don't have particularly bitchy skin, that takes out it's mood swings on you in the form of pimples, I'm sure you will LOVE this oil.

The first time I used the Cleansing Oil was not great, I got foundation all over the bathroom sink and oil in my eyes. I looked terrible but I was on a mission to get this right! It's been a week and a half and I have mastered the art of removing my makeup the Lipidol way.
Every day in the evening I take a few drops of the Lipidol Cleansing Oil and rub it on my face, here the dirt and the day's makeup binds with the oil and lifts off my skin. I then go ahead and add a little water to my hands and massage my face a bit more, then rinse my face.
My face is left soft, supple and so smooth. I'ts amazing at how moisturised my skin feels. The Cleansing Oil doesn't strip the natural oils of my skin and this is very important for as I have oily skin and still want my skin to get the nutrients it needs. I have converted now to using the Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil every day that the normal face wipes I used, because the Lipidol Cleansing Oil is much quick to use and I don't have to first use a wipe and then wash my face, which can be a harsh for my skin.
The Cleansing Oil effective removes my waterproof mascara and lipstick every day without leaving my eyes or lips stained.
Don't forget to check out my review on demo on video!
Let me just start by saying that taking my makeup off after a long day has never been this easy. Even with wet wipes, makeup remover and a good foaming facewash, I have never before received the results I have from Lipidol.
I used Lipidol for about a week to remove my daily makeup and I put it through rigorous testing by wearing way heavier makeup than I usually would wear. I was so surprised when Lipidol removed my waterproof mascara and eyeliner with no aggressive rubbing around my eye area – anything to prevent wrinkles.
Lipidol really exceeded my expectations of an oil based cleanser to be used as a makeup remover. It felt strange when applying however after washing it off completely, my skin felt clean and supple. It also leaves a healthy glow as it doesn’t remove the skins natural oily layer.
I was so sure that my skin didn’t feel dry or dehydrated after using Lipidol that on most days I wouldn’t even use a moisuturizer on my face. Which means it replaced my makeup remover, cleanser and moisturizer – the ultimate lazy girl product.
I’ve already recommended Lipidol to so many of my friends and I know that this is a product that will always be in my cosmetic bag ?
When it comes to my skin and beauty regime, I prefer to keep it as simple, as natural and as nourishing as possible. I have a combination skin and I find it so difficult to by face care products because most brands mostly cater for oily or dry skins. Those that claim to cater for combination skins having difficulty striking the balanced of leaving my skin cleansed yet nourished, soft and smooth!
My experience with most make up removal products is they they often strip my skin of it's natural oils, leaking it dry, tight and cracking, especially the wet wipes. Or you find products that are cream or oil based which are more gentle, but don't remove all the make-up and you have to end up using a lot of product to get the desired result- which makes buying these products expensive yet not effective.
Hence I was very exited when I received the opportunity to try Lipidol. I had seen it at Clicks stores where I do my monthly cosmetic shopping, but was skeptical because I didn't know the brand or how the oils worked. So I tried it out and here it goes!
How does my skin feel-?Soft, smooth, nourished and loved.
Did Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil live Up to my expectations? It exceeded my expectations! My make up removal process is so much easier, the oil is gentle on my face yet removes the make up and dirt! And leaves me with a lasting feeling or nourished skin, that looks and feels healthy and happy.
Is this an oil cleanser that binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing skins natural oily layer? Yes! It softened the foundation, powder, blush, eye shadow, eye liner, lipstick and mascara off my face. I didn't have to use a lot of product to achieve the desired effect and what I enjoyed as well is using it on days when I didn't wear foundation. Such days I would wear BB cream only or no make up at all and it still played the role of forming a base before I apply BB cream and removing the BB cream or just removing dirt on my face. This is when I discovered that it was not just a make up remover!
Did I feel the need to put on moisturizer after use or did your skin feel oily? Not at all! The reason why i had started to use Cream based make-up removers and face cleansers is because I was looking for a product that offered a 2 in 1 effect. Removes make up and dirt and also nourishes skin. So this product was perfect for my needs.
Overall I really enjoyed using Lipidol, it's a product that has various uses and fits into my lifestyle and needs. I am impressed that it comes from Bio-Oil, I wish they would mention it in their advertising as I think more woman would warm up to trying and trusting the brand. At the end of February I intend purchase and try out the rest of their range.
With Love
I have an oily skin, so at first when I received the product I thought "but I have an oily skin and this is oil, this is going to leave my skin oily". But I tried it. At first when I applied it to my skin it was just oily and I thought "Why?". So I followed the instuctions wet my hands and with my wet hands rubbed all over my skin... WOW!! It becomes milky like a cleanser and you can actually see the make-up coming off. I especially saw it with some of the drops falling in the basin, it was the colour of my foundation. It is amazing how you can see your make-up coming off. When I rinsed the product and make-up off with water everything was off even my waterproof mascara, and the best part it doesn't burn your eyes after you have rinsed it off before you wipe your face clean, I of course followed the rest of my facial routine, tone and moisturize. My skin wasn't oily and best of all it wasn't dry. The next morning my skin was as soft as a babies skin. I would definately recommend this to anyone its really amazing this product. After a few days of use my skin didn't even break out, wich in my eyes is amazing, as being a beautician I know that usually happens when you use a new product.. Lipodol will from now on be the only product I love and believe in..

From the makers of Bio oil you just know this product is going to be good! ;)
I was a bit relectent to put oil on my blemish prone skin but I've been using this for a few days now and it hasn't seem to aggravate my skin at all! :)
Here's what I think about the product:
-How does my skin feel? Well I thought it would feel oily and clogged up but wow was I wrong! It feels refreshed and so super moisturized!
-Did Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil live Up to my expectations? Absolutely! I never thought I'd enjoy putting oil on my face!
- Is this an oil cleanser that binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing skins natural oily layer?
It certainly removed the bb cream, concealer and lipstick off my face completely! The makeup came off so easily I hardly had to rub.
I have a very sensitive eye area so I didn't attempt to go over the eye area, I didn't have mascara on either. It was so gentle on the skin and definitely didn't feel like it was "stripping" my face of the natural oils.
-Did I feel the need to put on moisturizer after use or did your skin feel oily? Oh no way!! This is the most moisturized my dehydrated skin has ever felt! No need for moisturizer AT all afterwards. :) It's almost like a cleanser/moisturizer in one! Amazing and super convenient on the go! Did I mention the most amazing base for a layer of foundation? My foundation went on like a dream after I used this oil!
All and all I can say I was definitely impressed!
I would definitely recommend this product for ladies who don't want to spend hours removing their oil based makeup!

The Lipidol Face Cleansing Oil has become a core part of my skin care regime.
For only R79.90, its value for money and it is effective.
I use it everyday in the morning and at night.
I use it in the morning to create a smooth and fresh canvas for my makeup and I use it at night to remove the makeup that I've had on the entire day.
The face oil is great because it is not messy, it is easy to use and you see the results immediately after you rinse your face because it leaves your face feeling fresh and rejuvenated, as it should after using a cleanser. It is affordable and the average woman is able to purchase it as it is available at Clicks and there are Clicks stores nationwide. Should one wish to purchase the entire range, they would also be able to do so because of the price range and value for money. Thank you to Beauty Bulletin and Lipidol for sending this miracle oil my way. ?
For years now I’ve been struggling to find a decent make-up remover that doesn’t dry out my skin or leave streaks of mascara running down my face and most importantly – doesn’t cost an arm and a leg! Well, I believe I have now discovered the Holy Grail of make-up removers! LIPIDOL!!!
I wont lie, I was a bit hesitant to apply an oil to my face as I have combination skin and the last thing I need is oily skin that is bound to attract a series of breakouts.
In a nutshell, Lipidol is a beauty oil from the creators who blessed us mommies with bio-oil. It binds with dirt and make-up that is also oil based and removes it in a few easy steps – think of it as a mini facial right at home!
I found Lipidol to be extremely gentle on my skin and left my face feeling rejuvenated! And the smell is heavenly! I’ve heard others say that it smells like ‘nothing’ but I beg to differ. I use mine before I go to bed and it’s a beautiful thing falling asleep accompanied by the smell of chamomile and spearmint. Mmmmmm!
All I did was massage the oil with dry hands onto my dry face using circular motions. I then added a little bit of water and continued to massage my face while the oil turned into a soft watery cream. I then rinsed my face with luke-warm water and dabbed my face with a towel, revealing a fresh and make-up free face! The best part is it removed my Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade from my eyebrows which is highly waterproof and normally takes me a few separate washes to get rid of , AND i didn't feel the need to drown my skin in moisturizers either.
I definitely recommend this to anyone who’s tired of going through bottles of toner and scrubs that still leave you with a thin layer of make-up on your clean towel. Its available exclusively at clicks for just R79.95 – You can thank me later! *Wink Wink*
How has Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil left your ski looking and feeling after use?
I love my foundation and waterproof mascara but taking them off at night is a dreaded task or was a dreaded task until I started using Lipidol Facial Cleansing oil a week ago. Not only have I started using the cleansing oil in the morning before I put on my makeup to make my skin feel refreshed and soft but I also use it at night to remove my stubborn waterproof mascara. Every night I look forward to just smearing this amazing oil on my face and watch it as it removes all traces of make up without any effort, in just two days of use my skin was feeling extra smooth and I had a clear complexion.
Regardless of any skin type Lipidol Facial Cleansing oil does live up to its expectations. To someone who always has an oily t zone, using an oil cleanser would be like adding more to the oil but what I love about this cleansing oil is that after you apply it to your dry face all you have to do is wet your hands then rub them together to create a creamy texture that you will slather on your face, rinse with lukewarm water and that’s all there s to a clean, bacteria free skin in less than 5 minutes. Lipidol Cleansing face oil removed all the waterproof mascara I like to apply every day with less effort
Did you feel the need to put on moisturiser after use or did your skin feel oily?
After every use of the cleansing oil my skin would feel soft to the touch and really moisturised, there was no trace of any make up left and my skin was not even oily, I believe people of all skin types should try this. So I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
I written done all, step by step,tutorials ,before and after photos and written reviews but couldn't load the video. This was my attempt:Here is to happy glowing skin!
So, I got it. I tried it. I used it. I'm sold. I'm very particular about the products I use for my face. And as a normal to oily skin person, its hard to find a cleanser that doesn't leave my face feeling dry after wash. Lipidol Cleanser kept its promise. My skin wasn't dry or feeling as though I had washed with buckets of soap. It even removed my waterproof mascara. I have very sensitive eyes which usually means I have to rub with any cleanser to get the mascara off.
At the moment its Summer, so I choose my make up days because its hot, i sweat, my skin gets oily and I feel that my overall game face is compromised. I've decided to keep Lipidol in my bag for those moments where I feel Ive had enough of make up. I just pop into the bathroom wherever I am, wash my face and remove it. The great thing about this, is that I don't have to carry my moisturiser and depending on how I feel after the wash, I may re-apply my make up.
I also love the fact that it doesn't strip my skin of its natural oil layer whereas at night, I'm not as lazy to remove my make up before I go to bed. It also works wonderfully with my moisturizer and sunscreen.
I've recommended it to my mom since she also has an oily skin. We love the fact that it keeps our faces clean and fresh after wash but not stripped.
I was totally amazed by lipodol cleansing face oil. It cleaned my face wonderfully without drying it out and left it feeling fresh and nourished. A great feeling and gorgeous skin. Thank you lipodol.
Waterproof and longwear makeup have met their match!

As a beauty therapist I have used all kinds of makeup removers that promise all sorts but I have never truly been left satisfied, until now!
Lipidol Cleansing Face oil is amazing . You only need a few drops of this amazing oil. Run it in your hands then massage it into your skin, within a few seconds all the makeup longwear and waterproof included bonds with the oil , gently wet your hands and massage until it becomes a milky foam then just rinse off! Its that simple!
Because this is an oil based product with plant oils it is gentle on my skin but ruthless on my makeup!
I have recomended it to all my clients who love makeup but hate effort of taking it off!
So amazing product that is of high quality but the price makes it acsessable to everyone
I want to start off by mentioning that Lipidol Cleasing Oil, is truly amazing!
When I first received it, I was a bit nervous to try it out just because I thought it was going to leave my skin feeling and looking oily (since I have an oily T-zone) but boy was I wrong! This cleansing oil did exactly the opposite and left my skin feeling GORGEOUS, and looking radiant and hydrated! I am obsessed!
Another Great thing about it is, that it is so quick to use, I mean the whole procedure takes me a 2 minutes and that's pushing it! It is so quick and so effective, which is what I also loved about it!
I also liked the fact that it didn't burn my eyes, and my eyes are usually so sensitive to things like this, but with this product it didn't affect my eyes at all, not even a bit!
I recommend this product 100% just because it is so affordable ( R79.95 at Selected Clicks Stores) and again it is so effective, and it will last you a good 2-3 months since you only need a little bit, and a little bit goes a very long way with this product!
How to use it:
1 - Put a little bit onto dry hands
2- Apply it to your dry face
3- Massage it all over your face
4- Add a tiny little bit of water to your hands
5- Continue Massaging your face (You will see the oil emulsify and turn into a watery cream)
6- When you feel that it is enough, rinse it off and dry your face (If you want, You can totes walk around with a wet face)
I know it sounds a little weird cleansing "Oil"...having put to the test the Lipidol Oil i have to admit i am impressed. Our skin is exposed to the weather, air pollution, is hidden behind make-up and some small dirt particles that we do not see with our naked eyes during the day, it is important that we cleanse out all these and allow the pores to breathe.
It is also vital that while we are in the process of cleansing we do not over cleanse instead use products that will gentle clean the skin and balance its natural state and oils.
Lipidol Cleansing Oil contains vital essential Oils that thoroughly cleanse the skin and balance the content of our natural oils without leaving a dry stretchy face. This Cleansing Oil is easy to use (massage a few drops of the oil to your face, blend in a few drops of water foaming an emulsion and gentle massage & rinse off with cold water), eye friendly (does not irritate the eyes) and budget friendly.
Using the Lipidol Cleansing Face Wash is easy, you only need a little bit the oil on dry hands which you then message into the skin, if you feel like you need more then use more (a little really does go a long way). Once you have worked and massaged the product into the skin giving it enough time to bind the excess oil and dirt and makeup on your face, you then dampen your hands or add a little water and massage your face further and watch as the oil emulsifies and produces a light/watery cream. You then rinse you face and you are good to go (for some reason I keep wanting to say 'Bob's your uncle' lol). EASY!
1) How has Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil left your skin looking and feeling after use?
Answer - Supple, a little soft with a feeling of being clean but not dry or oily - it felt good. The skin had a glow, I would say that the skin look moisturised to a degree if that will describe it better.
2)Did Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil live up to your expectations and is it truly an oil cleanser that binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing your skins natural oily layer?
Answer: Yes, yes and yes. I didn't have any high expectations but it left me more than satisfied. It is gentle enough to use daily as well as twice if you feel like you need to. Because I do sometimes aim for full coverage with my makeup, I did feel like I had to wash twice to ensure all makeup was removed. But my natural oil layer was still in tact.
3)Did it remove all your makeup, especially the tough waterproof makeup? Yes depending on how much make up used. It did remove my water proof mascara which is great. Using cotton pads to remove the creamy film is also an option but not really necessary - I would rather wash twice, rinse and pat dry.
4)Did you feel the need to put on moisturizer after use or did your skin feel oily?
Answer: No, I did not feel the need to put on moisturizer, the skin did not feel like it needed it, it felt good and balanced. (I would just use moisturizer as a personal preference). No, my skin did not feel oily at all
Overall, a really good addition to my skin care regimen.
Using the Lipidol Cleansing Oil was an absolute treat! I will make sure that I always have it in my bathroom cupboard because of how well it works.
It removes make up off your face without leaving your skin too dry or too oily. It cleansed my skin and left me with a natural glow every time I used it.
I do however recommend using a separate eye make up remover just too make sure you get rid of the waterproof eyeliners and mascara that you may have on. The Lipidol is not strong enough to remove those completely.
Apart from that, I will most definitely be recommending it to my friends and family, especially once they see how much my skin has improved.
?I was so ecstatic when I got my delivery of Lipidol Face Cleansing Oil I couldn't contain myself. Made sure I used it right there and then not forgetting my before selfie. For the next three days I was so diligent with it I washed my face in the morning and in the evening before bed. One thing I noticed after the first wash though was that it left tingling sensation all over my face. But I just thought that was it working its magic and removing the grime off of my face. And gradually I noticed a fine rash developing on my precious face. One thing I can attest to is that this oil most definitely did not leave my skin feeling dry. So in all the things that can be said about Lipidol, keeping its promise of moisture is definitely top priority. I just didn't think I'd react to it as I've never reacted to new products before. #clearlylipidol
Not only does it clear the facial dirt and your make up, it leaves your face smooth and moisturized. It doesn't strip any of the natural oils.
After I tried it once I couldn't stop using it.
You don't need to apply a huge amount, a few drops in your hand are good enough which means it will last for quiet some time. I wouldn't say it has the best smell in the world but it's not that bad either. Good thing is the smell doesn't linger so when you're done using (rinsing) the product- it's gone.
So far so good... Grab your own Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil at your nearest Clicks stores for R79,95.
Loved the Lipidol cleansing oil, was really satisfied it really attracts all makeup and dirt and it leaves the skin hydrated also like Lipidol beautiful scent. loved that after applying oil when l wash it off that soapy foam that it changes to and everything is washed off . My face is smooth after each wash, and l never felt the need to moisturise my face after the wash. I love it and have already recommended it to all my friends and family and will definitely purchase it again. Just a few drops and it's done. Its really worth every cent.

I've been on a hunt for a cleanser that effectively removes makeup for years – and so far they have either been too weak, and left makeup behind – or too harsh leaving my skin dry and flaky.
First impressions are really important to me, and I loved the understated packaging that focuses on the product while still giving you the vital information.
Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil is the perfect medium, effective at cleansing all makeup and dirt while still retaining moisture and not creating dry patches.
Lipidol cleansing oil literally changed my life, I'm a blogger and I do a lot of shoot which means a lot of make up, this is the first product I tested that's actually good for my skin, normal make-up removers leaves my face dry but Lipidol leaves it soft and smooth, its not even necessary to put on a face lotion afterwards.
?Cleansing Face Oil?? Finding out that a cleansing oil actually does exist left puzzled I've tried cream cleansers and water cleansers before but never before have I heard of a cleansing oil before.
Lipidol is a brand I don't really know much about besides the sunscreen oil that I have used a few times and been enjoying I love the fact that their products seems to be oil based with works fantastic for dehydrated skin like mine. Lately my skin has been in a whirl wind of issues the heat has messed up my skin no traces of having dry skin during this insane heat waves South Africa has been facing.
So how does the Lipidol Cleansing Face oil work? Lipidol advises you to apply this cleansing face oil to a completely dry face - massaging the oil with your hands with a bit of water. The oil binds with dirt and make up that's left on your face that is also oil based. The oil and water emulsifies and turns into a watering cream formula. Just rinse and then you should be ready to go!
I find that most cleansers I have used in the past always left my face feeling tight and dried out - because this cleanser from Lipidol is oil based it doesn't strip my face from any healthy oils my skin generates and it leaves my face feeling refreshed without that dried out prune feeling.
For only R79.95 at any Clicks stores this is a product I would definitely recommend it has done wonders with my dry skin, every oil my skin generates is valuable in keeping my face feeling hydrated and the Lipidol Cleansing face oil does a fantastic job in looking in the moisture where I need it.
"Did you know that Lipidol range consist of skin care oils made from the brand bio oil?"
So this is not my first time using a cleansing oil however this is by far the most superior of the lot.
First impressions; basically it has a clean fresh fragrance (I love great smelling products) it does not feel one hundred percent oily which is also great especially if you a first time user.
How to use: Well best way to use it is to put a little product in dry hands and apply to a dry skin, the oil binds with dirt, makeup etc and lifts it off the skin. Then you apply a little bit of water and emulsify, the oil then becomes milky, you can then rinse off and with that you will remove ALL makeup, waterproof mascara etc. I think that probably is my favorite part as I usually have to use an additional eye makeup remover as when I wear makeup....it's a lot and usually waterproof, so with the Lipidol Cleansing Facial Oil I was able to apply that over the eyes and remove it without any burning or irritation.
I would usually apply a night cream or serum after cleansing as my skin would feel like it needed it, but with this oil I did not have that feeling at all. My skin felt clean and comfortable.
All that been said I would definitely re-purchase this product, definitely recommend to friends, and think it would work great on ant skin type really, even oily because oil balances oil.
Thank you Beauty Bulletin for this amazing product.
Keep your eyes peeled for my video review coming soon.
This the first time I've ever used a facial cleanser in an oil form and I'm so glad that it was Lipidol.
So about the product, firstly it is really simply packaged which makes it look like a high end product but it is quite easy for your bank account.
I loved using this product in the morning to wash my face because it's exactly what I needed. It took off my excess makeup, cleansed my skin and made it feel moisturised after use.
I will admit using it on dry skin is a hack (as I wash my face in the shower) but it's become the first thing I do when I get in the shower now.
It is available at Clicks stores for R79,95. Check out my video and before and after photos to see more of my ranting and the product in action!

1. This product does definitely work and does a good job of removing your makeup and keeping your natural oils. I must stay that i also depends on how well you massage it into your face. You cant do two wipes over over eyes and expect it to work. You have to work with it for a few minutes.
2. Great smell of fragrance with Rosemary and Niaouli essential oils.
3. Another thing a love about this product it the packaging, its really simple and looks very high end.
4. I must say its not pleasant getting this product in your eyes when rising your face off. So be careful.
5. I just think that they did a great job with bring out this product because what I know of there isn't a lot of face oils out there with this purpose.
6. Price is great and so it quality probably because its made my bio oil.
Hope you are well and okay, Beauty Bulletin sent me the *Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil for me to try and test. I thought I should do a YouTubefirst impression/tutorial on how to use the Face Oil so that you can see the Face Oil in action first hand.
My observation is that the Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil removes make-up quickly and effectively without drying my skin but more importantly the product does not need extreme scrubbing since the oil quickly emulsifies the makeup and dirt.
Since I have a dry /combination skin after using the product it does not leave that ashy layer that the normal cleansing products might leave, but leaves my skin feeling refreshed.
The Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil is available at selected Clicks and are priced at R79.95
I was so excited when I heard I had to review Lipidol. It's a range I've walked past a thousand times and contemplated. I am a beautiful therapist by profession so I test a lot of product. I've tried similar concepts bit all are precLeabsent products.
Lipidol is different and it does as it says.
The product is an oil which prevents the skins natural oil barrier from being stripped leaving the skin soft and hydrated with no feeling of tightness.
Best of all my make up which is a long lasting foundation and waterproof mascara was removed 100 percent..
To use the product you only need a tiny amount which you massage over the skin. Then apply water and massage into a lightly foamy film which causes the oil dirt and makeup to stick to the product therfore removing it.
Not only is the packaging eye catching due to its minimalistic appearance but it's a nice budget range at R79.00 for all the products in the range. Which consists of 6 including body and sunscreen .
Lastly bits a nice travel size which for me is a plus as I Find you always battle these days with restrictions.
I'm off this weekend to get the range and will be back soon to give some more feedback.
