Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil
Kose

Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil

Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil is a pore-clearing Japanese cleansing oil. The makeup removing oil gently melts away longwearing makeup while lifting away blackheads, clogged pores, and other impurities in the pores. It rinses off easily, leaving with no residue. Skin feels thoroughly clean and smooth. The cleansing oil is renewed in 2016 to better clear pores. A new luxurious blend of 5 certified organic oils (olive oil, jojoba oil, sesame oil, safflower oil, and shea butter) keeps skin smooth and moisturised.

It was a mistake to buy this serum. My interest in this product was piqued by its many cosmetic awards and time released technology. My main issue is that this product makes my skin look dry even when layered with other Decorte products. It is very disappointing considering the price. Not only does it not provide long-term effects, but it also fails to fulfill its primary function - to moisturize skin. I had a lot more luck with much cheaper alternatives.

I've come to this after 7 years of using Makeup Erasers to do my 1st cleanse - they're getting a little scratchy, so I tried this alternative. As others have mentioned, it's cheap and fragrance free. New ideas since the last review include that refill packs are now available, a little cheaper than buying the hard plastic pump bottle, and a tester/travel 60 ml is also available. This makes it a very flexible cleanser. As for performance, it does give cloudy eyes, as do all oil cleansers. It is slightly drying on my ageing, dehydrated yet oily skin - as are 95% of cleansers. But not badly. I follow with Cerave Hydrating Cleanser and a separate eye makeup remover. I appreciate that it does not irritate or redden my face in any way and is smiple to use. I like the cheery pink colour too. I've already purchased a refill - I may experiment with other oil cleansers, but this will be a staple fallback for the forseeable future.

I would buy this product for the body but not for the face. Everything is perfect, price, thicker gel texture that feels so light on the skin, no white cast, easy to spread etc. only main gripe is that it leaves white rolls of product on the skin even though I did not use makeup. These white rolls show up especially after I have to use a facial mask and the friction cause them

Quick answers before you leave the brand page.

These are the questions most shoppers need answered before they click into products or Amazon.

Should I trust the brand page score or the product pages more?
Start with the brand score for a quick signal, then make the actual purchase decision from the strongest product pages.
What is the fastest way to shop Kose?
Use “Shop this brand on Amazon” when you already know the brand, or “Browse best products” when you want a shorter path to the strongest product candidates.
What if I only know the category, not the product?
Use the category cards first. They help narrow a large brand into a smaller set of likely winners.
