This is a cream formula that is not quite as effective as an oil.

I do enjoy it, because it is quite gentle and does not strip the skin.

I gently move it around on my face to break up makeup & sebum. Then I wipe it off gently with a face wipe (really no effort required). Finally I follow up with a gel cleanser.

It's good if you can afford it, but I have since discovered Korean oil cleansers that just make the job a bit easier & they are much more affordable as well.
