Reviews

Perfect first step to double cleansing

"For days when I’m wearing a full face of make-up, I previously used Medik8 micellar mousse for a double cleanse, but recently I decided to upgrade and buy the liquid-balance cleansing oil as my first step in the double cleanse and my skin feels great for it!"

Jayne W. (5/5)

Finest cleansing oil for nighttime routine.

"Even for someone like me, this cleansing oil is both effective and non irritant. I use a wet facecloth to remove it from the final milky stage. Delivers clean super soft skin. Also makes a great first step if I need to double cleanse to remove makeup or SPF, second cleanse with one of the lovely foam pump cleansers."

Susan C. (5/5)

First time with oil cleansing

"Typically I use a foaming vitamin C wash or scrub, but oil cleansing was recommended to me so I tried it. It definitely helps keep my skin hydrated but it doesn’t remove tubing mascara (Tarte). So, I have been using Aveeno cleaning wipes first to remove the majority of my makeup and then I use the cleansing oil to wash away the rest. Four stars instead of five because I don’t feel like it fully cleans my face."

Nikki F. (4/5)

My Fav Cleanser and always a repurchase

"Absolutely love this cleansing oil! This is a repurchase for me and one I’ll keep coming back to. It removes my make-up so easily and leaves my skin feeling really soft, clean and comfortable afterwards. It’s perfect in winter when my skin needs a little more nourishment, but I also love that it doesn’t feel too heavy or clog my skin in the summer. One of my favourite cleansers and I think it’s great value for the price too! Its such great quality!"

Olena L. (5/5)

Cleansing oil

"I have been using the cleansing oil for about 6 months and love it. It removes tinted sunblock and mascara effortlessly without the need for cotton pads or scrubbing. It does not cause irritation when used on the eye area. Would recommend to those with dryer skin who may have had issues with other cleansers"

Laura M. (5/5)

Perfect cleansing oil

"One of my favorite cleansing oils! It removes makeup and sunscreen really well and leaves my skin feeling soft, clean and comfortable. It doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry or tight. I would definitely repurchase! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

Tetyana B. (5/5)

Excellent nighttime product

"I use this product morning and night, it’s great in helping to remove makeup and dirt . I only need 2 pumps , add a little water and massage in. You feel it going deep into the skin and it’s very soothing. Easy to wash off and although an oil it doesn’t make your skin greasy. Afterwards your skin feels not only clean it’s soft and feels like silk. A great quality product which lasts forever. I would definitely recommend using it before going to bed to help with removal of makeup and prepping skin for the rest of your skin routine."

Katherine B. (5/5)

Super clean skin

"This is one of my absolute favourite products by Medik8! Not only does it clean my skin thoroughly removing all makeup it also leaves my skin feeling fresh and looking glowy. A small amount goes a long way so it's great value. I use this every evening as part of my double cleanse routine. This will always be my go to evening cleanser."

A M. (5/5)

Best cleanser for clean and fresh looking skin

"I wouldn’t use another cleanser. It leaves the skin feeling clean, soft & hydrated. I have been using for a while and it definitely makes a difference to your skin. Removes makeup and cleanses the skin perfectly."
