FABULOUS FOR WATERPROOF MAKEUP
My new go-to for removing stubborn waterproof mascara/eye liner/brow gel --- I'm in love. Highly GENTLE on sensitive eyes, I can open my eyes while this in on even. Rinses clean/non-oily with just water. No filmy residue left lingering in my vision like most oil based products. I think most people would use this for the face, but I find just wonderful for eyes.

Changed - no longer perfect
Loved this for years, but now it leaves my face and hands greasy. I discarded a near-full bottle and am trying other companies' products. Please consider returning to the previous formulation.

Hello JB,
Thank you for this feedback. For sustainability reasons, the Perfect Cleansing Oil has had an ingredient swap. Although the product may have a different sensorial experience, it now contains a more effective ingredient. We know that change in texture can be very jarring, so I am happy to share this feedback with our internal teams. -Amber, Shiseido Skincare Expert

I only use this product to remove heavy makeup.
I find that this oil cleanser is a nice pre-cleanse for removing my heavy makeup (foundation,concealer,contour,bake,setting spray), otherwise it is just too oily for everyday cleansing.

It really does work
I was skeptical about buying this...would an oil cleanser clean my face without making me feel to oily/greasy. I love the cleanser, if you have dry skin you definitely want to try this! It cleans your skin thoroughly and doesn't leave it feeling dry. I highly recommend!

Best cleansing oil!
Hands down the best cleansing oil I’ve ever used...and I’ve tried many. If you’re worried about it being too oily for your skin just remember that a cleansing oil actually just binds with other oils on top of your skin to help cleanse without stripping it of moisture.

Can't live without!
I've been using this cleansing oil for years to remove mineral/zinc sunblock and it works like a charm. I don't wear makeup, but if I did, I'm sure that this would also do the trick! Not only does this remove sunblock and grime from my face at the end of the day, but it also leaves my skin feeling soft, supple, and hydrated. Highly recommended.

Love thiis!
I have been using this for a few years and LOVE it. It removes all makeup except for mascara. For that, I use Lancome Bi-Facil. I usually use the Shiseido cleansing oil as step one in a double cleanse. It really helps to keep my skin moisturized. You only need one or two pumps, so it lasts for months.
