Cleansing oil uses the principle of "oil dissolving" to remove facial makeup, and Shu Uemura is the pioneer of "oil cleansing". The brand's eponymous founder, Shu Uemura, invented the first cleansing oil, Unmask, in 1967 and made a huge splash in the makeup world, earning him the nickname "Father of Cleansing Oil". Today, Shu Uemura is still firmly in the top spot of cleansing oil products, and on the 50th anniversary of the product's launch, he has also put forward the product slogan "Oil is a must", and will carry out the concept of oil cleansing makeup removal to the end.
 
Because oil and water are not miscible, it is difficult for water to wash away the oil, so emulsifiers are added to cleansing oil products. After the oily ingredients have dissolved the facial makeup, the second step is emulsification with water. During the emulsification process, the facial oil is encapsulated and easily washed away by the water. As long as it is fully emulsified, it can be rinsed with clean water. If the emulsification is not complete, the cleansing oil remaining on the face may cause skin problems such as clogged pores and acne. Shu Uemura's five cleansing oil products are all characterized by strong cleansing power, gentleness, and rapid emulsification, so there is no need to use facial cleanser to cleanse.
 
Green Tea Cleansing Oil is one of Shu Uemura's most popular cleansing oils. The new version of Green Tea Cleansing Oil replaces the original mineral oil with corn germ oil as the base, and is paired with small molecule synthetic esters for strong makeup remover. Massage slowly in circular motions after applying to the face, and the makeup on the face will dissolve quickly. The addition of citric acid also helps with deep cleansing. Green Tea Fresh Skin Cleansing Oil has a rich texture, has a sense of presence on the upper face, and the skin is bright and moisturized after washing.
 
The most expensive of Shu Uemura's cleansing oil products is Amber Essence Cleansing Oil, which is known as Shu Uemura's "golden oil". Amber Essence Cleansing Oil is infused with 8 essential oils, and claims to achieve eight skin care benefits such as anti-aging, brightening and soothing. However, the main effect of cleansing oil is to remove makeup, and it stays on the face for a short time, so don't expect too much from your skincare benefits beyond makeup remover. Of course, Amber Essence Cleansing Oil is not without its merits, and its feeling on the face has been described as as cashmere skimming softly, soft and light. After cleansing, the face not only does not feel dry and tight, but also very moisturized. Therefore, it is recommended for users who are looking for cleansing oil products that are gentle to the touch and like the fragrance of essential oils. Amber Essence Cleansing Oil 150ml is priced at 380 yuan.
 
Sakura Light Cleansing Oil is one of the lightest of the lightest. This cleansing oil is mainly made from synthetic esters and contains trace amounts of menthol, which feels good on the skin and is more popular with oily skin. However, it will have a strong irritation when it touches the eyes, so you need to avoid the eyes when using it. The other two products, the Purifying Cleansing Oil and the Classic Hydrating Cleansing Oil, use mineral oil as the base and are not as powerful as Amber Essence Cleansing Oil and Green Tea Cleansing Oil, making them suitable for users who remove light makeup.
 
The large pump of Shushu Uemura cleansing oil is easy to press and can be locked by rotating the pump, which is very thoughtful, not only to keep the bottle mouth clean, but also convenient to carry on travel. There are two specifications of cleansing oil, namely 150ml and 450ml, because the use period is 6 months after opening, and the 450ml model is difficult to use up for single use, so it is recommended to buy the 150ml model, with a price ranging from 260 to 380 yuan. Shu Uemura has opened an e-commerce flagship store, and there are also counters offline, making it more convenient to buy.
