Emma Lewisham Illuminating Oil Cleanser Review

I have been circling this brand for a while and now that they have launched in Space NK, I have made it my business to get acquainted. There are lots of really good products in the range, but I am starting with one of the best-sellers, the Emma Lewisham Illuminating Oil Cleanser which I have read is India Knight approved. Here’s the lowdown for you.

Key Ingredients

The Emma Lewisham brand has its own proprietary skin-first formulating philosophy called the Physiology Synchrony Unlock Method™, which blends up to 25 scientific ingredients that are selected for their proven effect on the skin.

How to use it

This cleanser can be used day and night, and all you need to do is massage one or two pumps onto dry skin to break down any makeup, SPF, and impurities. You then add a splash of water to turn the oil into a soft milk and then rinse with lukewarm water or a clean, damp cloth.

My Review of Emma Lewisham Illuminating Oil Cleanser

The Emma Lewisham Illuminating Oil Cleanser literally removes every scrap of makeup without any effort at all. It feels super luxurious in every way, from the details of the packaging to its finest oil texture. It’s just lovely.

I simply massage into my skin and it starts to break down makeup immediately in the gentlest way. You can just rinse everything clean away and it leaves skin instantly softer and feeling smoother. If you prefer using a face cloth, this works perfectly too.

Not only is it great for night time, to thoroughly prepare skin for your evening skincare routine, but it’s also an amazing morning cleanse. This is because it literally sets your skin up with hydration and moisturisation before you have even started your skincare.

There’s no feeling of heaviness or oiliness, just really balanced and nourished skin straight after cleansing. Love it.
