## How it works

The Gentle Pore Vegan Cleansing Oil is a 150ml cleansing oil, used as the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face. The antioxidant it is built around is Tocopheryl Acetate, named twenty-sixth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Ceramide NP, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract and Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract, so the antioxidant is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Tocopheryl Acetate stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cleansing oil format rather than by the list alone. Dr.Althea sells this Tocopheryl Acetate cleansing oil in Korea, and this is that version.

## How to use

1. Use the Gentle Pore Vegan Cleansing Oil as the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face.
2. Two or three full pumps, massaged over dry skin for a full minute so sunscreen and makeup have time to dissolve.
3. Add a little water and keep massaging until it turns milky, rinse, then follow with a water-based cleanser. That second wash is what takes the oil off.
4. Once a day, in the evening. Do not use it as your morning cleanse; there is nothing on a face at seven in the morning that needs an oil to lift it.

## FAQ

### Where does this cleansing oil go in my routine?

As the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face. Nothing goes under it: this cleansing oil is the step everything else in the routine lands on top of. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Tocopheryl Acetate and not three changes at once.

### Does this cleansing oil contain fragrance?

Yes. The ingredient list names Limonene. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this cleansing oil is not the one.

### What else is on the list besides Tocopheryl Acetate?

Ceramide NP, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract and Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract. The order they are printed in on this cleansing oil's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Tocopheryl Acetate sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Solanum Melongena (Eggplant) Fruit Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Flower Extract and Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract.
