Over the last year or so, I’ve started to appreciate cleansing oils a heck of a lot. Sure, my tried and true trusty Marcelle eye makeup remover is still my favourite thing EVER when it comes to removing my eye makeup, but it’s just not the most efficient thing for the rest of my face.
My last cleansing oil experience was with the Dermalogica Precleanse, and I loved it, but dang is EVER expensive. So if there’s a cheaper option that does the same thing, why not go for it?
This Sephora Collection Supreme Cleansing Oil is a “cleansing oil with the effectiveness of an oil and the gentleness of a lotion for skin that is immaculately clean without dryness.” And yep… checkmark to all of that.
And bonus? This is the first and ONLY cleansing oil I’ve ever owned that hasn’t leaked through the pump top. My previous experiences with other brands all resulted in a super leaky pump top and, consequently, a disgusting mess on my bathroom counter. I’m a third of the way through this bottle now and it’s showing no signs of dribbling anywhere!
The only thing I’m not overly keen on is the scent, but hey, that’s a personal thing. (For those wondering, it smells a little bit like lipsticks from days of yore. You know… before they started scenting everything with vanilla.) But I can totally ignore the scent because the Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil works so wonderfully to remove all my makeup, including waterproof products. It’s gentle and helps rehydrate my skin simply because of the oil content. All this for for a very reasonable price tag too!
The Sephora Collection Supreme Cleansing Oil can be purchased on sephora.ca for $19 CAD or on sephora.com for $15 USD.
The products featured in this review was sent to me for consideration.
Aww I was hoping it would smell like citrus. But I’m glad it performed so well! I love cleansing oils and will consider picking this up once I run out of my Ole Henriksen Vitamin C cleansing oil.

Citrus would’ve been amazing, but sadly this does not. 🙁 I’m really falling in love with cleansing oils lately – they just make it so easy to take your makeup off!
too bad about the scent, for me that’s a big part of what makes cleansing more enjoyable and most brands are pretty good. definitely sounds like it does a great job though and bonus points for not leaky point.

The scent isn’t enough to deter me from using it though! (But I do get your point, I much prefer using things where I really love the smell.) And my god… best pump yet. I don’t know why every other brand failed so hard there!
Hmm I might have to go sniff this. I love the L’Occitane Shea cleansing oil because it works sooo well, but the smells reminds me of Play-Doh! And I have bad memories of Play-Doh because I’m allergic to it and it used to give me rashes on my hands as a kid. 🙁
Does this cleansing oil also work well on waterproof mascara?

REALLY! Play-Doh! What an odd scent! And oh my godddd that is a horrible thing to be allergic to for a kid! YIKES!!!
And yes, the cleansing oil does work really well on waterproof mascara! I’ve been using it to remove my Too Faced Better Than Sex waterproof!
they use to carry one years ago that wasn’t quite this yellow and they discontinued it before i could give it a try. i REALLY want to try this (but i want to try all cleansing oils ever made). i’m loving the price point but i’m tried to many formulas now, i think i’ve honed what i like and dislike. very curious about this one!

Oh interesting – I don’t know a lot about the history of Sephora Collection stuff, so it’s interesting to hear that they basically re-did this cleansing oil. What’s your FAVOURITE cleansing oil?
