Favorite-d: New Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil (with High Purity Olive Oil)

Having tried numerous cleansing oils, I was excited to try this new one by Hada Labo. YES, it definitely lived up to my v.high expectations!

Introducing to y'all my newly favorite-d makeup remover - Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil

The new Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil is formulated with high purity olive oil, which provides high performance cleansing. It helps remove dirt, oil and heavy makeup gently and effortlessly. There are no unnecessary additives (fragrance, color, oil, alcohol). Another key ingredient will be super hyaluronic acid (2x more moisture than the normal hyaluronic acid), giving you refreshing smoothness after cleansing.

It is water-soluble, and does not leave any greasy residue, stickiness or dryness on your face after cleansing. True to Hada Labo'sPERFECT X SIMPLE’ philosophy, it doesn't contain any mineral oil that is known to be harmful to skin and clogs pores (unlike other cleansing oils in the market).

Thanks Hada Labo (sg)/TSS for sending me the product for review! (:

The bottle itself is lightweight, with a pump (like that of the typical cleansing oil packaging). On 1st look, the color of the product seems to be deep yellowish (similar to DHC). However, that's not the case. In actual fact, the outer layer is a translucent deep yellow, to indicate that it is oil-based.

When dispensed onto my palm, the product is color-less and runny. It has a much lighter consistency, as compared to other cleansing oils.

Net wt: 200ml

Made in Japan

***Note: Keep hands and face dry.***

For half-face, I use at least 2 pumps of cleansing oil for heavy makeup. Next, I gently massage the cleansing oil onto face and eye area. Then, I proceed to wet face with warm water to emulsify the cleansing oil.

When makeup is completely dissolved, I rinse my face thoroughly with warm water. Finally, I double-cleanse with facial cleanser.

 

Voilà! Perfectly cleansed face! :D

It is no wonder that I've favorite-d this awesome cleansing oil. It works like a charm for sure. The cleansing power is hands-down superior; removes my heavy makeup gently yet effortlessly in merely 10mins. It even removes hard-to-remove Majolica Majorca & Kiss Me Heroine Make range of mascaras very well (tried and tested).

When applied onto face, the cleansing oil feels comfortably light and has no hint of olive scent (fragrance-free). It spreads easily on the face and emulsifies really well (I like the feeling!). As compared to most cleansing oils I used, lesser water is needed to rinse off the dissolved makeup and cleansing oil. My face feels refreshingly smooth, clean and moisturized, with absolutely no greasy/sticky feeling. Ahh... what's not to like?

To me, an additional step of double-cleansing is a must, so as to remove my makeup thoroughly (to avoid nasty breakouts/clogged pores).

At $20.90, Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cleansing Oil is no doubt an inexpensive AND highly effective makeup remover. Highly recommended! Exclusively at Watsons island-wide from 1st Nov 2011 onwards.
