I love the CEO moisturiser from Sunday Riley so I was super keen to try out this new launch in the line. I am kind of obsessed with cleansing oils and also Turmeric, so as the Sunday Riley CEO Micro Dissolve Cleansing Oil includes it, I was even more keen to try. Here’s the low down.

So this is all about fighting the five visible signs of ageing whilst you do your cleanse. I loved the sound of that.
Sunday Riley CEO Micro Dissolve Cleansing Oil Features
- Can be used wet or dry
- Will immediately break down impurities and micropollution particles
- Promotes brighter, smoother, more radiant skin
- Breaks down waterproof makeup
- Vitamin C brightens and supports the skin
- Lime Pearl and White Willow Bark Extracts refresh and tone
- Turmeric and Evening Primrose balances and improves skin bounce

I have combination skin and this feels great on my complexion. The first time I used it, it got into my eyes and I wouldn’t recommend that happening. It stung a lot! You are supposed to be able to use it to remove eye makeup, but you need to be very careful that it doesn’t go right into your eyes. Because I’m not that careful, I prefer something super gentle like the Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Cleansing Oil which melts eye makeup and is totally fine if it gets into my eyes.

Good as a 2nd or Morning Cleanse
I really like the Sunday Riley CEO Micro Dissolve Cleansing Oil as a second cleanse, or a morning cleanse to prep my skin for skincare. First, I massage it on to dry skin and then cleanse it off with a muslin being very careful not to let it in my eyes and I don’t just rinse with water because I find it can sneak into eyes that way. I think I must be particularly sensitive to it as I have seen some US reviews that says it’s perfectly fine on the eyes.
I find it really makes my pores look tighter and clearer, and as my enlarged pores are one of my ‘things’, this is good to see. It’s a lovely luxurious oil that’s very pleasant for a good face massage.
The Sunday Riley CEO Micro Dissolve Cleansing Oil is £35 and available HERE now. If you have sensitive eyes I’d avoid this, but if you’re looking for a cleanser that’s good on pores, this could be good for you. I really wish it wasn’t gentler on my eyes.
I’m a big fan of the CEO Moisturiser when my skin is in need of extra glow. You can read that review here. Next I am going to try the use CEO serum, so stay tuned for that.
