Highly recommend for DOUBLE CLEANSING I see a ton of comments about not liking this oil because it's very heavy and hard to removed. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING IT AS A FIRST-STEP DOUBLE CLEANSER! I use it to remove makeup, products, etc. It does take me a few pumps (maybe 2-3, so I run out every 2-3 months), but it goes on the skin well and really helps break down most of my makeup. I attempt to rinse it off with warm water, it can DEFINITELY be hard to come off, I can't imagine using this as my only cleanser. I never tried using it alone or using a damp cloth to wipe it off. Yes, it does feel very heavy, but I like it since it feels like I'm really getting all the products and oils from the day out. I use a WATER-BASED cleanser to help remove it all (very important to use water-based). That usually does the trick perfectly. My skin is combination, sometimes dry sometimes oily. It has drastically helped my skin's dryness and tightness after washing. I have tried a million different cleansing oils and balms, but I always come back to this one! It leaves my skin clean, soft, and moisturized.
My only complaint is the packaging, I wish it came in a bigger package! I use it twice a day (morning and night) and I run out quickly. The pump can get a little finicky, it's not my favorite.
Worst Cleansing Oil I have ever Used I used this product to cleanse my skin for 8 weeks. I was excited to switch to something clean and with so many raving reviews. I used this for 8 weeks only this brand and their skincare line. Week 8 approached and I had white heads, blackheads, chin breakouts ( those really intense cluster breakouts), breakouts on my eyebrows and in between, Light breakouts on my cheeks, a huge whitehead on my nose, dull skin, breakouts all around my upper lip and under my lower lip, breakouts on my neck by my lower earlobes, breakouts on my neck. I have not broke out this badly since I was in High School 12+ years ago I am now approaching 30. I have not seen my skin this bad in many years. I Love Skincare, I even completed Esthetician School at the top of my class. I know my way around skincare. This was the worst experience i have ever had. I have tried Dermalogica, Tula, Bare Minerals, Kate Sommerville, Glossier, Lush, and more and never experienced anything like this. The worst brands I have tried is Clean and Clear and Neutrogena in my youth and Proactive. I Put Mad Hippie on that list just below Neutrogena and the top worst being Proactive because it gave my skin a chemical burn.

This is my first experience with an oil cleanser. I have always had oily acne prone skin and most skincare has always made me oily. However, i decided to try double cleansing and i am so glad i did! My skin felt SUPPLE after double cleansing with this as my first step. It also smells so nice! A familiar scent that i cant quite define. The only reason im giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it doesn't emulsify. I also dont wear makeup and cannot say how well it does for removing makeup.
Lastly i wanna mention that it makes me happy to support a company that uses clean ingredients that i can feel good about putting on my skin!
Love this product! 5

I am 33 with acne prone combination skin.
I use this product all the time and will not be without it!
I use it in the morning with my gua she and double cleanse, using this first at night. It helps get all the make up, sweat and dirt off without leaving my skin feeling stripped.
Use as directed and it works.

This did not do a good job of removing my non-waterproof mascara and does not emulsify well when you add water. Did not care for it at all.

Maybe I'm using this wrong, as I don't seem to be using it the way others are, but I absolutely love this! I use a make up remover to get off my makeup, then use two pumps of the Mad Hippie Cleansing Oil and rub it into my face. I don't feel like it takes as much as some say they are using because it is a heavy oil and spreads easily. I leave it on my face while I brush my teeth and let it soak in. I then take a hot wet cloth and drape it over my face then once the cloth has steamed my face and started to cool I rinse the cloth in warm water and then wipe the remaining oil from my face. Typical cleanser dries out my face and actually causes my skin to produce more oils and acne breakouts but with this gentle oil any remaining makeup or oil on my face is swept away by this oil cleanser and leaves my face feeling clean and not overly dry - and no more acne breakouts! Once I'm done cleansing my face I moisturize and continue with my daily facial routine. I LOVE this cleanser! I will cry if they ever discontinue this product...
I Love this oil, & use it everyday 5
