For me, going through my skin regiment is like a nice little personal quiet time to relax and, well, cleanse. The right products are definitely key to ensure you get the most out of this quality time alone.

I've always wanted to start using cleansing oils. The idea of it just sounds so good -- combat oil with oil. Last time I got a sample of the Shu Uemura cleansing oil but never really followed up on it. Honestly though it's because I didn't use enough of it at a time so it didn't seem to work all that well. In actuality, it works great. Since I'm on an absolute Boscia craze, I figured I would try their MakeUp BreakUp Cleansing Oil. Amazing. Absolutely amazing! It cleans so thoroughly and leaves skin feeling soft and supple. Easily rinsed out, not oily, moisturized just right, and no trace of makeup. Passed the toner test. Perfection in a bottle. This will forever be added on to my skin routine! I can't get over how effectively it works. Right when you massage it onto your face, the oil glides so nicely and is cushiony which encourages you to massage it longer. I was stunned by just how deeply it cleaned. Blackheads, whiteheads, clogged pores -- all gone! Usually you go to the facialist and have them squeeze the jebuzz out of your face but with cleansing oils, all you have to do is massage out the impurities. I'm still in total shock about this. Why did I not try this sooner?!! I am definitely a worshiper of cleansing oils from now on.

This is going to sound completely pathetic of me but I think having finally been exposed to cleansing oils brought me out of my 3 month depression. Still as easy to please as ever. Some things never change.
