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.
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 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.

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!
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.
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
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
This is such a lovely product and so easy to use. It's not only a face cleanser but a brilliant makeup remover as well. By taking some of the product in your dry hands and massaging it into the face, the oil binds with the dirt and makeup making it so easy to wash off. As soon as water is added to the oil it emulsifies and becomes a milky liquid.
I love the packaging and natural smell of this product. For only R79,95 it's so worth it and I highly recommend the Lipidol range to anyone.
Lipidol Cleansing face oil is definitely a gentle yet effective cleanser!
After using Lipidol cleansing face oil for a week my face definitely has a softer more supple feeling. I generally have combination skin that tends to dry out later in the day. I haven't had this since using lipidol. It hasn't left my face feeling too oily either, I did apply my usual moisturiser as well. It removed all my makeup , all layers ( primer, foundation, powder, fixing spray lipstick and the usual extras). Lipidol is also gentle on the skin, I have had no reactions which happens a lot as my skin can be quite sensitive.
I really love using it as it acts as a two in one, you don't have to wash your face after using a standard make up remover! its all done in one.
Its a great product , will definitely be buying it in store and recommending it to friends. Great product for my first review . Thank you for choosing me to review it!!!!
Lipidol is an oil based skincare range created by the makers of Bio-Oil. The range consists of six products and I was lucky to be able to try one of them! (Thank you Beauty Bulletin)
I was rather curious about cleansing with facial oil and did some research…
How it works: One would think that when applying oil to your face, that it would create break outs and make your skin even oilier… Normal soap and cleansing products strip away the skins natural oils, therefore our skin loses moisture, becomes more dry and then our skin tries to compensate the lack of moisture by creating more oil, which just creates skin havoc. Lipidol Cleansing Oil removes make up and impurities without disturbing the skins natural oily layer, therefore the skin remains moisturized.
Packaging and product description:
• Minimalistic outer packaging, the focus is on the product.
• The cleansing oil comes in a 125ml transparent, spill proof bottle with a white screw on lid.
• The blue tint in the oil makes the product look refreshing and clean.
• The oil feels fairly light and is fragranced with Rosemary and Niaouli essential oils.
How to use the product:
I poured about a teaspoon of the product into the palm of my hand, rubbed my palms together, and then gently massaged the oil over my face. When the oil started to bind with the make up, I added a dash of water as this causes the oil to emulsify and helps to remove the make up. After the oil had been emulsified and massaged in a bit, I rinsed and gently dried my face with a towel.
Upside:
• The Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil left my skin feeling smooth and moisturized; therefore I had no need to apply extra moisturizer onto my face.
• It removed the majority of my make up.
• There was no residue/oily feeling on my skin after I rinsed the product off.
• The scent is subtle
• Suitable for sensitive skin
• Affordable
Downside:
• It was a bit of a struggle to remove eye make up completely, such as the eyeliner and mascara.
• Product seemed to bother my eyes.
Opening the door to find my Lipidol Facial Oil was being delivered is excitement enough for any beauty blogger! It’s like Christmas but for Beauty Fanatics who love their skin and beauty products. Ripping open my package I found the Lipidol Cleansing Facial Oil in all its sapphire brilliance. The way the oil sparkled in the sun on my door step left me in awe of this amazing product! The packaging was simple yet stunning leaving the product to speak for itself. The clear bottle showed of the brilliant blue oil in all its glory and left me giddy and hopping in excitement to try it out.
Reading the instructions on the back of the bottle at first had me double checking if I was seeing straight. A facial oil that turns into cleanser when mixed with water? I was sure I definitely was not seeing straight because as a Chemical Engineering student we are taught that oil DOES NOT mix with water, basic chemistry 101. So following the instructions I massaged the cleansing facial oil into my skin till I was as shiny as a new penny. I then wet my hands a little to watch myself perform some Lipidol magic! As the water came into contact with the oil, it emulsified into a creamy consistency that started removing all the make-up I had on. A quick splash of water, rinsing all the product from my face and towel drying left me in awe.
The results? Every single bit of make-up was removed from my face and it didn't take much hassle at all! My face was smooth and void of any make up. Any trace of make up or oil had vanished and my skin was singing with happiness! My skin is usually dry and sensitive so I was thoroughly amazed that it didn't leave a dry feeling which turns my face scratchy and red and before you know it I'm usually running for my moisturizer, but certainly not with Lipidol Cleansing Facial oil. My face was clear and I sometimes felt there was no need to even use moisturizer and after a week, my skin did not break out but instead had become a lover of Lipidol and will refuse to use anything other than Lipidol Cleansing Facial Oil. It’s just that good!
Lipidol I would say exceeded my expectations in all aspects. It’s truly does it says on the bottle no doubt about that! It combines with make-up and dirt on your face, gently dissolving and removing these impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oily layer. It even removed the water proof eye liner and hard to remove make up on my face which I struggle to remove with normal make up removers.
Would I purchase this product in the future? Hell YES! I can’t see myself going a day without this product ever again. For a mere R79.95 my skin is glowing and refreshed after smearing it with make up every day. It’s definitely my go to make up remover and all-purpose cleanser.
I was really excited to try this product. It worked at getting most of my makeup off except my eyeliner and mascara. The product i'm currently using gets rid of all my makeup so not very happy there.
Its very easy to use, a bit messy with the water wash after applying the oil but my face feels smooth and clean afterwards. I still use my moisturiser afterwards and my face is not oily during the day so that's good.
Its a little pricey for me as my current makeup remover is cheaper and works well so don't think i'll be changing.
I've given the rest of the Lipidol to my sister to try as she uses thick makeup and will update as soon as i hear from her.
Being a coconut oil fan *pours coconut oil over entire life*, I'm not new to using oils as make-up removers. They are awesome at removing stubborn make-up, impurities and also don't come with the drying affect that most other make-up removers cause.
So when beauty bulletin contacted me to review Lipidols Cleansing Oil, I was undoubtedly excited. I've wanted to try out the product for ages, however I decided to try and not purchases anymore beauty products, yes I might even have a problem.
I started out by applying the oil with my finger tips onto my face and massaging gently. Make up just ooooozes right off. I then used cotton pads to remove excess make-up. My skin was left, moisturised, unlike many make-up removers which can be seriously drying. Glowing, supple and like baby's bottom when I awoke in the morning.
I'm in love with this oil and as a dry skin suffer, I am so excited to carry on using it as part of my regime. I've even heard that some people add some lipidol oil with their moisturisers to give that extra moisture boost.
Lipidol is obviously going for the minimalist approach with thier packaging and it works,because it looks great and the bottle gets the colour from the oil inside.The Lipidol range consists of six different oils; cleansing oil,body oil, after shower oil, sunscreen oil,after shave oil and an overnight face oil these are all brought to us by Union Swiss the creators of Bio oil(so we know it is a trusted brand).
They also state that this is a non-comedogenic oil which basically means that it won’t block your pores,so it is safe to use for all skin types. The best part about using this product is that it is so simple to use; it only takes 3 steps.Click on the video below to see a full tutorial on how to use your cleansing oil ????
The oil is fragranced with Rosemary and Niaouli essential oils. After someone watched my video yesterday she mentioned that her husband said that it smells clinical.So naturally in my nature I wanted to double check if this was so and I am happy to admit that it indeed does smell very clinical.This is however not an issue for me as for me cleaning your face should be treated very clinically.
Another plus when it comes to this product is the time it takes to get your face clean,being a mother with two kids you really have to search for time to even just wash your face and with Lipidol it takes less than 3 minutes.
Have you tried this product before?Let me know your thoughts in the comment section below.
So my friends at Beauty Bulletin have given me the opportunity to review Lipidol Cleansing Face oil???????? Let me tell you a little bit about this product, it is an oil based facial cleanser used to remove day-to-day dirt on the skin, reduce the appearance of shine and doubles up as a makeup remover. Sounding a bit too good to be true, well, let's see. This morning I tried Lipidol for the first time, loved, loved, loved it. Application feels gentle on the skin, doesn't feel like I'm forcefully stripping the moisture from my skin and the product doesn't smell like soap or toxic toner products either. Once you've applied the face oil onto a dry face take a bit of water into the palm of your hands and work it over your entire face mmm feels like the good stuff already! A quick rinse and you're good to start beating face with makeup guilt-free. So after drying off my face I was expecting that regular tight dry parched skin feeling, let me tell you, my skin felt great, I could pull a face and not feel like my skin was just about to crack or tear????. In the next couple of days I will be exclusively using Lipidol on my face to test real results on how my skin will look and feel. I have combination skin with a very oily T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) so let's see if Lipidol will work to even out this issue. Looking forward to sharing with you what the makers of Bio-oil have bottled for us this time????!!! #ClearlyLipidol
Day 1-
So today I received my package to review Lipidol cleansing facial oil. Now the first thing that caught my attention was that this product is from 'the makers of Bio-oil'. Now knowing the benefits of using Bio-oil I'm already thinking 'beauties say no more, I'm SOLD'!!
Now if you're anything like me you will enjoy reading up on a product before you even try it, I'm already feeling Lipidol is going to be my new best friend, I mean this is a product that
promises not to strip my skin of its natural oils, meaning no dryness and no tight feelings after use and
promises to remove every day dirt too mmmm mmm.. Darling don't even get me started on the price, at R79.95 I love, love, love it!!
So I'm going to be posting my daily routine as I get to know my chomie better, cleansing plus moisturizing #ClearlyLipidol
Love this product. Its a good make-up remover and a good face cleaner which i mainly used it for. After washing my face with it, my face was smooth and not dry. I have a very oily skin but hours after using Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil my face was not oil like it usually is it kept its moisture and glow.
I will definitively recommend it, and hey the price is affordable.
I have never tried an oil to clean my face, so I was really hesitant to say the least. But after experiencing this product, I fell in love. It does such a wonderful job without stripping my skin of it's natural oils, and my skin is no so dry anymore. A definite keeper.
