We formulated this cleanser to be as soothing as possible for super sensitive skin. We combined our top calming oils with Cromollient to help this wash off. There is less Cromollient in this blend than in our other cleansers to be more gentle to sensitive skin. This cleanser is excellent for removing makeup, grime, and overall daily grunge.
Method of Application Dispense about a dime to nickel size amount of cleanser into the palm of your hand, drip warm/hot water into your palm then rub hands together to emulsify. Pat into skin, wipe off gently with a wet, warm cotton or bamboo clean washcloth. Do not massage into your skin. Only cleanse in the A.M. if necessary.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.
Shipping Transit Note: Some customers have asked whether products can be affected by time in transit, especially during warmer months. Our products are formulated and preserved to remain stable during normal shipping times and should not spoil simply from being in transit.
That said, if you are concerned about heat exposure, you are welcome to add an ice pack to your order for extra peace of mind. Click here to add an ice pack.

This is a fantastic everyday facial cleanser, but I wanted to share another use—it’s the absolute best “feminine” cleanser ever! Hopefully most of us know not to use soaps with harsh pH that can cause problems down there, but sometimes I felt like a water-only wash wasn’t quite enough. Super sensitive cleansing oil to the rescue! I’ve never felt fresher since using this product. Cleanses without stripping or disrupting your most delicate skin’s balance. Perfect!

Great Cleansing oil
This cleansing oil is wonderful! I have super sensitive, rosacea skin and I am always looking for a gentle cleanser that will remove my makeup and SPF at the same time. This does! I rub the oil in to loosen everything up and then use a cotton ball to gently remove it. Works awesome! And it leaves my skin soft but not greasy or irritated. I would also like to give customer service an A+ as they are great to deal with. Especially Jen who patiently works with me on choosing products:)
Hi Lori!
We’re blushing harder than your rosacea, and not from irritation!
We are happy to hear that the Super Sensitive Cleansing Oil is doing its job like a gentle little makeup ninja ~ sneaks in, dissolves everything, and vanishes without a trace (or greasy ⚙️ residue).
And yes, Jen is basically the skincare whisperer.
We’re pretty sure she deserves her own fan club at this point.
Thanks for the love and the A+.. we’re hanging it on the fridge!
Your GoW Team

Effective, even for acne-prone skin
I purchased this product approximately 2 years ago for the first time and it is the only oil cleanser I will ever use. It has properly cleaned my face from any and all face products, and in experimenting to see if just using it as my only cleanser (no double cleansing) would help reduce my frequent acne breakouts, it has!
This is awesome! Double cleansing has always given us a level of concern so to hear your thoughts really help to solidify
our thoughts. Keep us updated with your progress!
Wish you the best, Frankie

Not as good as others
This didn’t remove my very lightly applied concealer very well. I massaged the oil on my dry face for a good minute then rinsed with water to emulsify it and and removed all of that with water then I used my face wash with a white wash cloth to scrub my face and there was concealer all over the rag :/ won’t recommend or repurchase
Hi Shauna
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with our Super Sensitive Cleansing Oil. I'm truly sorry to hear it didn’t perform as expected for removing your concealer, especially after you gave it a full, proper try with gentle massage and emulsification. I noticed you had purchased this previously as well. I am sorry for this recent outcome.
Our goal is always to create products that are both gentle and effective, especially for sensitive skin. It’s clear from your review that this one didn’t meet your needs, and we sincerely appreciate your honest feedback. We’ll absolutely take it into consideration as we continue refining our formulations. If you’re open to it, we’d love to learn more about your routine or the specific product you were trying to remove, as that might help us recommend a more suitable option for you, or pass helpful notes along to our lab.
Thank you again for giving us a try, and for helping us to improve our product selection.

This absolutely works and it works quickly! I notice a difference in my nail health, strength and length and I noticed a difference within a week. I stopped using it for a couple of weeks and my nails went back to dry and peeling. Within a few days of using it again, they were growing and strong. People actually noticed and complimented. It's easy to use with the brush application as well.
Thank you!
We’re so glad your nails felt stronger and that the brush made the serum easy to use.
How fun that people noticed and complimented your nails!
We appreciate you coming back to tell us how it worked for you. I adore this serum as my hands
and nails are always buried in something. :-D
Love this for my eyes. Does a good job of hydrating and plumping skin around
Thank you!
We’re so glad you’re loving the Apple Stem Cell Elixir and that the skin around your eyes feels more hydrated and looks a little plumper.

This serum visibly tightens the neck area after one use. It lives up to everything they state it does. I often try something different, waste my money, and come back to GOW for their products.
Hi there, thank you for sharing your experience!
We’re delighted that the serum delivered such noticeable results and that you keep coming back to GOW.
Wow! I could not believe after one application how good my skin looks
Wow! I could not believe after one application how good my skin looks. I will be buying the larger size.

I recommend this to EVERYONE with KP
I recommend this to EVERYONE who tells me they have KP or body acne. It’s magic, fr.
I used to get breakouts on my glutes and KP on my arms but if I use this 2-3x a week…. Clear as day! I’ll use it a bit more in the summer too.
It’s strong so be sure to wash your hands afterwards and avoid any compromised skin and BODY ONLY!
Thanks GoW for consistently having the best quality prices while still charging reasonable costs instead of inflated ones. Tysm!!!

I wish you had a choice of a bigger bottle size or a big refill container. It would also be advantageous for the environment
