Yep, The Oil Cleansing Method REALLY Works (really!) By: Stephanie Pelczar How can OIL cleanse skin? Short answer: When you rub oil onto your skin, it pulls the sebum and dirt out of your pores, leaving behind clean, moisturized skin. BUT the type of oil you use matters! Not all oils have the same properties, and some will work better on certain types of skin than others. It depends on the comedogenic rating of the oil. Comedogenic- what is that? Comedogenic means that it causes comedones- or acne/clogs pores instead of cleansing pores. The comedogenic scale rates oils from 0-5, zero being noncomedogenic (won’t clog pores), up to 5. While highly moisturizing, oils with a comedogenic rating of 5 can be counterproductive to use for skin cleansing purposes if you have acne-prone skin. Here are some oils/butters and their comedogenic rating: ZERO, 0: Argan oil, Murumuru Butter, Safflower Oil (high linolenic), Shea Butter, Sunflower Seed Oil, Tucuma Butter, Hemp Seed Oil, Kokum Butter, Mango Butter, Poppy Seed Oil, Red Raspberry Seed Oil, Watermelon seed oil, ONE, 1: Babassu Oil, Castor Oil, Cucumber Seed Oil, Meadowfoam Seed Oil, Neem Oil, Milk Thistle, Perilla Oil, Pomegranate Oil, Rosehip Oil, Sea Buckthorn Oil, Guava Seed Oil, Calendula Oil, Kiwi Seed Oil, Maracuja/Passion Fruit Seed Oil TWO, 2: Sweet Almond Oil, Apricot Kernel Oil, Andiroba Oil, Coconut Oil (Virgin), Evening Primrose Oil, Grape Seed Oil, Hazelnut Oil, Jojoba Oil, Olive Oil, Pumpkin Seed Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Sesame Oil, Borage Oil, Tamanu Oil THREE, 3: Macadamia nut oil, Avocado oil, Chia seed Oil, FOUR, 4: Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil (Unfractionated), Flaxseed Oil, Cupuacu Butter, Palm Oil FIVE, 5: SoyBean OIl, Wheat Germ Oil How do you perform the oil cleansing method on your face once you have the right oils for your skin type?
