I was lucky to be chosen by Beauty Bulletin to review Lipidol cleansing oil. [email protected] a product I've been eye out for a while but wasn't sure about. I have used a imitation products on the market but all where a pretty cleanse oil.
Firstly I Love the Minimalistic packaging .
Secondly I am a long lasting foundation weater and waterproof mascara . So for me it had lotsome to live up to and boy did it deliver.
Being an oil based most people will over look this range but the concept is that oil removes oil not makes oil.
Dirt makeup and excess skin oil bind with the oil when applied to the skin. Once you add water and massage is when the fun begins it starts to form a watery cream which you can feel actually is cleaning best of all it won't dry out the skin as it's not stripping the natural oil layer.
My makeup and eye makeup were totally removed and I wasn't left feeling tight.
The other up side to this range is that bit costs R79.00 and it's an ideal travel size to.
I am very impressed with this productime and am.looking forward to buying the entire range and writing about it here soon. . If this is what the cleansing oil does it can only imagine how amazing the rest of the range will be.

Thank you Beauty Bulletin for allowing me to review this AWESOME product. Like a child on Christmas morning, I ripped open the packaging to find the perfect gift inside, a bottle of Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil and a cute towelling headband. The oil itself is visually appealing being light blue in colour. So I opened up the bottle to smell it to see if it smells as good as it looks and boy it did. I was immediately transported to a spa with the scent of rosemary. I was really excited to try it out.
The instructions are easy to follow with applying the oil onto your skin without adding any water to it. Every time I use it, it feels like I am giving myself a mini facial. The oil massages into my skin and you can actually notice that your makeup is being removed almost immediately. The amazing thing is that the oil binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing your skins natural oily layer. Once you are done with that all you do is add some water to your face and it becomes almost milky and soapy but does not lather like regular soaps. Once you rinse and wipe your face you will notice your face looking brighter and it looks like you have moisturised already.
What I simply love about this product is that it removes all my makeup, even the stubborn waterproof eye-liners and mascaras which is awesome. No more waking up and looking like a raccoon for me ever again... Whoohoo!!!
I have been using it daily and I love it - there is no other way to say it. It has exceeded my expectations in that I thought it will do the job but I never imagined my skin to look so great as well.
I have already started recommending it to my friends and family and ladies at only R79.95 it is definitely worth the buy!!!

I really love the feeling Lipidol gives after every use and my skin feels so soft and after all the reviews I've read about it, it has really lived up to my expectation and so much more and it removes makeup effortlessly. Lipidol definitely removes the makeup and the dirt without stripping the skin's oily layer. Lipidol is the perfect product for any waterproof makeup such as Mascara. I love Lipidol because after you cleanse your face there is no need to moisturizer because it feels your face feeling soft and fresh.

What I LIKE about this Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil:
> It doesn't feel greasy on my skin.
> It really has a lovely subtle scent.
> No cotton pads or wet wipes required, just lukewarm water.
> It removes dirt and makeup without drying out my skin.
What I don't LIKE?
I only get to pay R 79.95 for my next 125 ml of the Lipidol Cleansing Oil, so I really have nothing to complain about or not to like about this blue face oil.

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.

I was incredibly excited to try out this facial cleansing oil by Lipidol. After trying out the body cleansing oil (which smells amazing, just like Roses Lime Cordial), and being pretty darn impressed by it, I figured that the other Lipidol products were sure to impress. And boy was I right!
The facial cleansing oil is a clear light blue colour, a thick-ish oil in consistency, and it has a fresh, clean, herbal scent to it. I felt like I could smell eucalyptus and rosemary, and it is scented with rosemary and niaouli essential oils. I have sensitive, reactive skin, and due to this I usually shy away from scented products, but I gave this a bash anyway - what better way to show it's goodness, than to prove that even scented, it can still do a great job on irritable skin?
After some research, I discovered that the niaouli essential oil has disinfectant and antiseptic properties, while the rosemary essential oil has a whole contingent of benefits, from improving your mood, relieving pain, helping with circulation, healing and detoxing the skin, as well as being anti-ageing and anti-inflammatory! Basically this cleansing oil is not only cleaning make-up, oil and dirt off of your skin, it's helping to kill any germs and calm any irritations or inflammation too. What a fantastic idea, if it actually works in practice.
I've been putting the cleansing oil through it's paces properly, by using it morning and night. In the morning, I use a small amount to massage into my skin, I add water and let it emulsify, and then rinse it off. It leaves my face feeling fresh and clean and so soft, and the smell is such a mood booster on workdays. At night, I use a little more and really massage it into my skin well, focussing on the areas that had the most make-up on, including my eyes. I add some water so that the oil turns into a creamy white colour, massage a little longer, and then rinse it off with lukewarm water. I don't even need to do a second cleanse, as it gets rid of every last bit of my make-up! Even my waterproof Bourjois mascara didn't stand a chance against this bad boy.
My skin has been looking smooth and even, any redness has definitely calmed down a lot, and it doesn't feel stripped dry and super tight after cleansing, which I love. I often rush to apply moisturiser after cleansing, as my skin feels tight and dry, and I didn't feel that with the Lipidol. I haven't had any breakouts from using an oil to cleanse (those oilier skinned, pimple prone girls will love it!), and I still applied my regular serum and moisturiser after washing, and it didn't feel oily or sticky in the slightest.
I have used a couple of other oil cleansers before, but none exceeded my expectations like the Lipidol cleansing oil, and after I've finished my bottle, I'll most definitely be repurchasing!

I've heard a lot about the Lipidol Oils range which had launched in 2015 in South Africa, so like many beauties I was really interested in learning about the oils. The range consists of Five products namely a Face cleansing oil, Overnight Face oil, After shave oil, After Shower oil and Sun screen oil (SPF 20) each packaged in clear plastic bottles what makes them different each oil has a specific colour and bottle shape depending on the type.
Beauty review on the Face Cleansing oil, which I did for a week and truly enjoyed the product, when oil comes to mind you automatically assume greasy. But to my surprise the Lipidol is far from greasy it is a very unique and different product to a lot of cleansers of I've used before, which I really liked.
The oil is suppose to remove dirt and cleanse your face without stripping away your skins natural oil layer. The cleansing oil contains and is fragranced by Niaouli and Rosemary essential oils. The benefits of these oils Niaouli oil is best used for antiseptic and stimulating qualities, used to clear infections and irritations and the second oil Rosemary oil which many beauties are aware of too contains natural antiseptic properties. But most importantly it is suitable for Sensitive skin and it is Non-Comedogenic.
So here is my overall review and application of the product.
Application:
1. Apply the oil to dry skin and massage.
2. Then add a little water to help emulsify (foam)
3. Massage
4. Then Rinse
5. And Finally Dry
My first thoughts how do you wash your face with an oil is what many others would think to, but first impressions are always a great when you least expect a good outcome. First attempt pat onto to my dry skin then I went my hands to start the reaction of the oil and water to form a very light and gentle foam on my skin and rinse that's all really quick and easy which a cleanser should be.
After my first use my skin felt soft as if I had applied my moisturizer already, I could go to bed with my skin feeling moisturized. After a week of usage my skin still feels good and great product for those with sensitive skins, I to have issues with sensitivity but I had no reactions. Product came really well off no over rinsing and drying. I would carry on using the Lipidol Cleansing oil its a great product to have, packaging is great I had no leaking issues at all as I traveled with it too.
I would totally recommend any product from the Lipidol range they work really well with sensitive skins they are unique with the ability to react with water and emulsify, diffidently a top product on my list for 2016. And a great bargain for a 125ml bottle at R79 found only Clicks stores Nationwide.

Mommy's job is never done, NEVER! In between helping with homework and guiding five year olds with their scribbles I usually need the shortest route to all destinations, I buy my veggies peeled, chopped and ready and prefer the microwave options, all in the efforts to reach the dinner table shortest route possible. Lipidol cleansing facial oil has been such a joy for me to use, a one stop route to a clean, dirt and makeup free face. My skin really feels hydrated, I can't stop talking about the reduced oiliness of my skin mmm mmm, the good oils working together!
For convenience this oil gets a double thumbs up from me everything else is like a sweet extra, kind of like biting into a plain biscuit and discovering a melt in your mouth chocolatey centre.

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.

Lipidol Cleasing Face oil
I used to look at Lipidol and think to myself it's expensive, When I got my package I was very excited couldn't wait to try Lipidol cleansing Face oil. I love everything about it,I applied it on my dry hands to put on my face which had make up on. The whole experience was worth the wait, Lipidol left my skin feeling smooth and Matt no tightness no dryness.
Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil lived up to my expectations and it truly is an oil cleanser that binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing your skins natural oily layer. Once I applied it on my face Lipidol removed all my makeup even my waterproof mascara which is stubborn to remove at all times. What I loved about Lipidol Cleansing face oil is the fact that I didn't feel the need to put on moisturizer after applying it, My skin didn't feel oily instead it felt smooth and Matt without any tightness of the skin. Lipidol is the best Cleansing Face oil for only R79.99 at your nearest Clicks Stores.

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.
My skin is #ClearlyLipidol Addicted!
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.

#ClearlyLipdol Lipdol Cleansing Face Oil
I have been asked to review Lipidol cleansing face oil, After using Lipidol Cleasing face oil my skin felt smooth no tightness stir felt like I had just moisturized my skin, it feels good on my face. Lipidol Facial Cleansing Oil lived up to my expectations and is it truly an oil cleanser that binds oil material and gently dissolves impurities, without removing your skins natural oily layer. I use liquid foundation and a power foundation it takes me long to remove but with Lipidol it took me only five minutes, After wards I didn't even feel the need to put on moisturizer my skin didn't feel oily. I have fallen in Love with Lipidol the best thing about it's only R79,99 at

When it comes to cleansing my face, I’ve always preferred a foaming wash. However, the older I get, the more drying I find these kinds of formulas to be.
For the past two weeks, I’ve been trying the Lipidol Cleansing Oil (R79.95), and it’s fast become a favourite.
It effortlessly (and gently) removes my make-up (even longwearing foundation), leaving my skin spotlessly clean and beautifully hydrated.
It’s really easy to use too; simply apply the Lipidol Oil Cleanser is onto dry skin, and then massaged it in. Thereafter add a little water, and the oil start emulsifying into a watery cream. While you could easily rinse it off, I prefer removing mine with a face cloth (as this adds a bit of an exfoliation-like benefit).
You can also use the Lipidol Oil Cleanser on your eyes, but because I have super sensitive eyes, I prefer not to.
The formula combines six essential oils that work to nourish and purify the skin, while Rosemary and neroli oils gives it a fresh smell. I was impressed to see the addition of salicylic acid in the ingredient list, as it’s known to unclog pores, preventing any breakouts.
All in all, I think the Lipidol Cleansing Oil is a great option and for all types of skin, sensitive and oily included, and at R79.99 is excellent value.

My skin feels very velvety, clean, without feeling tight. My skin feels comfortable and moisturised, almost feels like I shouldn't apply moisturizer.
As a dry sensitive skin sufferer, I'm so pleased about Lipidol facial oil. It's so gentle and does not feel oily at all. I also love the way it completely remove make up by dissolving impurities and waterproof make up so effortlessly.

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.

I've been meaning to try out more oil products on my face, and this Cleansing Face Oil from Lipidol has got me pretty excited! A cleanser that leaves your skin super soft, moisturised, and not at all tight, like most other cleansers - it removed all traces of my makeup and didn't leave any residue at all!
You start off by applying the oil to a dry face with dry fingers and massaging it in a bit, the product has a very subtle scent and feels incredibly moisturising. You then add a little water and keep massaging, the oil emulsifies and becomes a creamier consistency, and dirt and makeup literally slide off! Wash, dry, and you're left with a soft, clean face.
Oh and finally, I have to add that I love the packaging. I'm a sucker for clean & simple, and this is exactly that! Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil is available at Clicks stores and is ridiculously affordable at R79,95 - let me know if you've tried this product out or if you plan too, I'm completely in love.

I am already a big fan of Lipidol's range, but this is the first time I've tried the Cleansing Face Oil. I was expecting it to be good as Lipidol really excels in oils, but I was surprised at just how well it worked and what good valuie for money it is. At only R79.95 this is the most affordable cleansing oil I have tried, and it works just as well if not better than some of the expensive brands.
Cleansing with oil is the most gentle and effective way to cleanse and remove makeup because it dissolves oil-based makeup without stripping your skin's natural protective oils. As a result I always incorporate a cleansing oil in my routine. What makes Lipidol's Face Cleansing Oil so special is that it really removes every trace of makeup, including my eye makeup. I can use it on my eyes without it stinging at all.
I love the way my skin feels after the oil emulsifies and rinses off. My skin feels very clean, but not stripped or with that tight, squeaky feeling. My skin feels comfortable and moisturised.
I love the packaging, which is no-frills and without printed labels. This looks modern on your bathroom shelf and is also travel-friendly. I also don't mind the scent of this cleansing oil. It is naturally lightly fragranced with rosemary and niaouli oils, which have an inoffensive gender-neutral scent - so I'm sure guys would enjoy it just as much.
I have a normal to combination skin, and Lipidol Face Cleansing Oil is suitable for all skin types. Even oily skin would benefit because thought it removes excess oil and dirt it will not strip the skin and cause it to produce even more oil, which a traditional gel or foam cleanser does.
I give this a big thumbs up!

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.
Love this gem!

Packaging:Minimal transparent plastic bottle and white lid.
Content:Blue light oily liquid that absorbs quickly. Consists of skin loving oils that nourish and protect. Rosemary, argan oil, sesame seed oil to name a few.
Category: Oil cleanser that claims to cleanse away make up or dirt with out stripping your skins natural oil layer. Retails for R79.95 at and only Clicks stores.
How to use: Massage with dry hands onto dry face. Add a little water to create a white thin creamy lather.Rinse off and you are done. It is that quick.
Results :It has been a week using the Lipidol cleanser and no changes to the condition of my skin.No dryness or tightness to my face after use.Removes make up well on the face but not so well for eye make up. Make up is dissolved by the oil.
Verdict:For a cleanser i do prefer a foamy lather rather than liquid because i honestly think i am clean if there is a foamy lather(please tell me i'm not alone).I thought I would have to remove my make up with a make up remover first before using the Lipidol cleanser but not at all so its great but my eye make up needs some extra tlc.

An oil as a skin cleaner? I thought not...Surprisingly this product was such a good one!!
The product smells great, and is oil based.
It glides on well and has simple to follow instructions.
Lipidol can also be used on make-up and bare skin.
Has great feeling that's not tight and taught after washed off.
Silky luxurious feel to the skin.
A must purchase!!

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

It is a known and easily proven scientific fact that oil attracts oil, while on the other hand oil and water repel each other; the only way to get these two elements to mix is to add an emulsifier which creates a bond between the two elements. The scientist in me has been revealed, lol!
The basic concept of the oil cleansing method follows this scientific fact in that the oil used to massage your skin dissolves the oil that has become hardened with impurities which often cause pimples and blackheads.
I've found Lipidol's Cleansing Face Oil to be quite effective in removing makeup and cleansing my face. When massaged onto a dry uncleaned face, the oil dissolves the makeup and by adding a bit of water and continuing with the massage, a light creamy and foamy emulsion is created which allows the oil and dirt to be easily rinsed off with water.
The oil is enriched with a number of essential oils including rosemary, niaouli, argan and sesame seed oil. Although I don't enjoy the herby scent that these oils come with, I love that they are packed with vitamins (esp Vitamin E which is great for skin repair) and allow my skin to be instantly moisturised. The cleansing oil also contains other plant extracts including aloe vera which is great for soothing and hydrating the skin as well as salicylic acid which helps with clearing and preventing pimples and blemished skin.
Lipidol states that the oil is suitable for sensitive skin and is also non-comedogenic, so you can use it without worrying that it'll clog your pores.
So whether you have dry, normal, combination (like me) or oily skin, this cleansing oil is def worth a try!

Its a truly unique and great product. As a make up remover it removed all traces of my make up even my waterproof mascara. As a cleanser this product is amazing as it cleans the skin with out leaving it tight and dry. I have oily skin and I find that this product is amazing yet I have been getting a few break outs recently. I've tried it on 3 different skin tones and well it works best for all skin types except i don't think an oily skin needs it but it is amazing. I think Lipidol has perfected a cleanser that has both good cleaning action as well as a make up remover.

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

So I'm going to be posting my daily routine as I get to know my chomie better, cleansing plus moisturizing #ClearlyLipidol
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

Hi everyone!
As a beauty blogger, I like trying out new products and letting my readers and friends know if the products are worth buying.
I can honestly say that I am unbelievably impressed with Lipidol's Cleansing Face Oil and will definitely be buying it once I am finished this bottle. This oil exceeded my expectations! I may even invest in the entire range!
I would like to extend a huge thank you to Beauty Bulletin and Lipidol for this opportunity! I adore your product! Hopefully I will be selected to review more products in future!
All my love,
Cléa

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.

Love,Love,Love!! I just used the Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil and am so in love! As a makeup artist I have lots of clients that want me to remove their makeup and have an extremely dry skin,I myself am one of those people-my skin is super dry and needs abit of a moisture fix!
After using Lipidol Cleansing Face Oil all my makeup was removed-even my waterproof mascara and liner! It was so incredibly easy and my skin felt super hydrated after using it
I would definetly use it on my clients and I will be using it daily to remove my own makeup! What a steal at only R79.95!

Great to use as a personal facial cleanser or on clients/models on set as it cleanses but doesnt leave the skin feeling oily, nor does it dry the skin out.

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.

This is by far the most amazing product I've ever used for my fickle skin. You basically apply the oil sparingly onto your face and rub it it, apply a little water and it will remove your make up and any other dirt. You finally rinse your face. It feels so hydrated and moisturised. Why? Because unlike other cleansing products it doesn't strip your face of its natural oils.

I read about double cleansing* a few months ago and I was eager to try it But struggled to find an affordable cleansing oil. At R79.95 for a bottle this is perfect! I've been using it for 2 months and I'm still on my first bottle. It removes all my make up and doesn't dry out my skin. Also no oily residue after. It washes off easily. I love it and will be trying some of the other products in the range as well.
*Double cleansing is when you use a cleansing oil to remove make up and impurities before using your normal face wash. The idea is that using the oil first means that you remove most of the impurities without stripping away your skin's natural oils. Using your normal cleanser after gets rid of the last bit of dirt and because you don't have to scrub or use harsh make up removers, you're not hurting your skin as much. Interesting theory so thought I'd give it a try.

This product is great! I have bought for my daughters and I use it as well. Take off all my make up. No drying out of my skin. My skin looks and feels younger and very clean. It last very long and you use a small amount of the oil. The price is very good and affordable.

When I first heard about facial oils I wondered when they would hit the South African shores at a reasonable price, yes I know Body Shop has one but I just wanted to try something that was a little cheaper.. I mean the thought of putting OIL on my face to clean it um ya I was skeptical!
When Lipidol launched I was very intrigued with its clean, simple and effortless design - this made me want to try it even more! I got my hands on the facial cleanser and I can honestly say my face has never been so clean I feel like it goes right into my pores and pulls all the gunk (makeup) out and leaves my skin feeling squeaky clean (literally feels so clean its almost tight!)
The only thing I am not a fan about is the smell.. to me its very tea-tree like which reminds me a lot of aromatherapy which I'm not against just not a smell I'd love to smell EVERY night nah'mean?

This is the best facial cleanser by far! I have tried so many brands from cheap to expensive and nothing can beat this cleanser for me. As I am wearing long-wear foundation I do struggle to get my face squeaky clean at night. When using a toner afterwards there is always more foundation that is coming off. But no more...
This Lipidol oil smells so nice. You place about a teaspoon size in your hands and massage it into your face for a few minutes. Then you splash some water on your face and massage it for another minute or so until the oil emulsify. You can then wash it off.
What I like about the oil is that my skin looks so hydrated and soft afterwards. I'm almost finished with my first bottle and will definitely continue to buy this facial oil. Especially for the price of only R79.95

The oil is fragranced with Rosemary and Niaouli essential oils which immediately makes this a treat to use. I really love using products that are fragranced with essential oils because not only do they smell great, but I know that they have incredible properties on their own to help benefit my skin. The oil is used to remove dirt and makeup without stripping the skin of its natural oily layer. The way to use this is to pour about a teaspoon of the product into that palm of your hand (make sure you washed your hands first), then massage the oil all over your face and neck area. Then simply splash a bit of warm water on your skin to allow the oil to emulsify (it turns a white milky colour). Massage your face a little longer and wash the oil off your face. What I love about this method of washing my face is that I do have dehydrated skin and this helps to keep my skin hydrated and moisturised. I also love how great this oil is at removing makeup - even stubborn mascara.

For a facial cleansing oil this product is super cheap!
And thats compared to the justine epigran, environ precleansing oil and dermalogica variety!
The packaging is minimalist: a see through cellophane!
Reading the product contents on the back of this see through bottle requires good eyes are preferably not at night!
From the looks of the ingredients this is by no means a natural product!
What drew me in was knowing that this brand comes from the same creators as bio oil.
Enough said!
Its a thin oil and spreads easily on dry skin
Add a little water after massaging it in and emulsify
And rinse
And soft clean protected feeling skin emerges
I bought the entire range
Watch this space for reviews on the rest of this range

Everyone and their sisters were trying these new products available at Clicks, and I needed to also. So, I bought myself five out of the six products available (didn't get the shaving oil one) for R79.95 each, why not! This cleansing oil is a thin oil that you apply to a dry face and massage in, the oil binds with dirt and makeup. You then add a little water and massage some more, and the oil turns a milky colour, you then rinse off. Since I have been having dry skin issues, I really liked this cleanser, as it didn't make my face feel dry at all. My face felt super clean, but without that tight feeling.It has a fresh, light scent, and the packaging is minimal, but practical. I love this for the first step of my nightly double cleanse routine.
