Melt away the day with our ultra-gentle yet powerfully effective Sensitive Cleansing Oil. Crafted to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities without disrupting the skin’s natural balance, this formula is a soothing first step in any skincare ritual. A nourishing blend of Apricot Kernel, Rice Bran, Sunflower Seed, Argan, and Hemp Seed Oils works in harmony to lift away debris while softening and conditioning the skin. Cromollient SCE adds a silky, non-greasy rinse-off feel, leaving skin clean, supple, and never stripped. Designed with sensitive skin in mind, yet gentle enough for all skin types, this cleanser provides a gentle cleanse that respects your skin's barrier.
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.

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.

awesome product!
I loved not having the feeling of tightness all around my face after taking my makeup off. I used basic makeup removers for years and thought the dryness that comes with using them was normal. I was so wrong! I’m very glad that this cleansing oil was recommended to me. It leaves my face feeling great.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, we really are grateful!

the only oil cleanser i can use!
the first oil cleanser i've used that hasn't irritated my skin or make me break out. it rinses off cleanly and doesnt make my face feel dry. i use it as a first cleanser in my double cleanse routine but i honestly think it could be used alone. definitely a must have,
Thank you so much for this review!

Best gentle cleanser on the market
I have been using this cleanser for 3 years. It is so gentle and completely removes all traces of makeup, even stubborn eye makeup. I use a wash cloth when washing my face as recommended. This, combined with other GoW products recommended during a consultation, have completely changed my skin. Now my skin is soft, clear, repairs itself (acne would never heal before, would just scar). Love GoW.
So glad you are loving this!

The only cleanser I use.
Hands down best cleanser in the world. Removes EVERYTHING including waterproof mascara. Rinse with water. Leaves no oily residue.
I love this stuff. It's got so many great moisturizing ingredients. I even love the herbal color :) I do a pump of this plus a pump of the decadent oat enriched emulsion plus 4-5 drops of squalane oil as my moisturizer twice a day and my skin feels calm and hydrated.

I haven’t really noticed any changes but it hasn’t made my nails worse
Thank you for trying it and sharing your honest experience. We understand it’s disappointing when you haven’t noticed a change. In my own experience, it helped my nails, and my ridges became less noticeable too, though everyone’s results can be different. How long have you been using it? 💚 Markey
I am in love with this product. I use after cleansing on a cotton pad then spray my skin. I mix my serums in the palm of my hand along with my Calming oils and a sprits of this and am ready to go.You can’t go wrong with this product

Wound Healing Oil
I have a scar that is a year old. After using a silicone scar cream for a whole year, it was still burning, itchy, raised and red. I started applying Wound Healing Oil twice a day. Within a few days, the itching and burning was under control. It's been 5 months now and the redness has subsided and the scar is starting to flatten. It's a slow process, but it's working.

Sweet & refreshing
I love misting this on my skin before applying lotion! It makes the lotion glide so smoothly and has such a pleasant smell.

Perfection in a jar
This stuff gives me the type of glow I thought could only be achieved at a day spa. It smells lovely and feels even better. It was slightly tingly the first 2-3 applications (not uncomfortable, just enough that you feel like it's really putting in work), and now it just feels immediately refreshing when applied. Great texture, too--sticky enough to stay put but not enough to feel immobilizing. I'm going to keep a jar of this in stock until they stop making it!

I use the Eyelash Peptide Serum on my lashes and brows
I use the Eyelash Peptide Serum on my lashes and brows. My lashes have grown in thicker and longer. I'm most impressed with the results on my brows! They are starting to regrow in spots that were bare for years.
