DHC’s bestselling, cult-classic Deep Cleansing Oil is truly one of a kind. The original Japanese first step oil cleanser melts away makeup and dissolves impurities, leaving your skin clean, soft and radiant.
The 100% organic olive-oil based formulation works on the scientific premise that “like attracts like.” Applied with dry hands on your dry face, this rich, naturally golden-hued olive oil-based cleanser binds with dirt and effortlessly breaks down sunscreen, sebum and stubborn makeup, like waterproof mascara and eyeliner, without clogging your pores. The water-soluble formula rinses away with zero oily residue. Its silky feel and delicate, natural rosemary aroma make washing your face feel like a luxurious spa experience.
This botanical formulation features antioxidant-rich organic olive oil and vitamin E to hydrate, soften and protect, and rosemary leaf oil to invigorate and refresh. Also works great as a makeup brush cleaner.
Deep Cleansing Oil is the first step in your daily double cleanse routine. Double cleansing is a centuries-old Japanese ritual for achieving a clean, fresh, and incredibly soft complexion. The oil-based cleanser breaks down dirt, sebum and other impurities and also removes all traces of makeup, so skin is left looking clean and refreshed.

I will never use anything elseI've been using this oil since I discovered it when I lived in Japan over 40 years ago and I will never be without it. It goes on as oil, dissolves and removes every trace of makeup, then rinses off completely with no oil left behind, just soft, perfectly clean skin. My skin is extremely sensitive so I have to be very cautious about the products I use and this has never caused any reaction whatsoever. I recently gifted my adult daughter a bottle of this and she said "My skin has NEVER felt this clean!" I always keep a spare bottle on hand and if it goes on sale I buy more. Can't recommend highly enough; thank you DHC!
Is this safe to use on color treated hair? I want to use to clean my scalp.
Asked by: Chekesha
Hello.
Deep Cleansing Oil can effectively remove buildup from the scalp; however, because it is not designed as a haircare product, we're unable to confirm if it's color-safe.

What is the shelf life of deep cleansing oil
Asked by: Shirlene
For unopened products, expiration dates can be determined using the lot number, which is a series of numbers and/or letters printed on the bottom of the bottle. Please contact us with the lot number, and we will be happy to assist you in finding the expiration date. We can be reached by phone at 1-800-342-2273, e-mail at customercare@dhccare.com, or live chat at www.dhccare.com Monday through Friday 8:30 AM to 7 PM EST.
To find out the optimal usage period for an opened product, please check the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol on the packaging. This universal symbol looks like a jar with its lid slightly open and displays a number in the center, indicating the number of months the product should be used after opening. For Deep Cleansing Oil, the PAO is six months.

Is it safe to remove eye makeup with the oil?
Asked by: Lou2222
Hello.
Absolutely! Our cleansing oils are safe for use around the eye area, although we strongly recommend closing your eyes while massaging eye makeup off and rinsing thoroughly. That said, you will be amazed how easily it removes even the most stubborn eye makeup and yet rinses off undetected, with no oily residual leftover :)

Can you use this product with a Foreo brush?
Asked by: Emily C
Hello.
Because we're unfamiliar with the Foreo Brush you're inquiring about, we're unable to speculate what it is or how it works; however, we strongly suggest using your hands to apply and massage Deep Cleansing Oil. Please remember that Deep Cleansing Oil dispensed into dry hands and applied to dry skin. Your hands are the best tools because they can be used to move the product thoroughly over your complexion while gently stimulating pores and dislodging oily buildup.
We hope this suggestion proves to be useful and thank you for choosing DHC for your skincare needs.
Have a beautiful day!
