Elizabeth Dehn for One Love Organics Active Moisture Vitamin B Cleansing Oil & Makeup Remover is a luxurious multitasking cleanser that lifts away impurities and makeup while moisturizing skin and restoring pH balance. This non-stripping, clean-rinsing formula was created with dehydrated skin in mind, yet benefits all skin types with its gently exfoliating and intensely hydrating properties. This cleanser and makeup remover has been
reviewed and recommend by members of the TIA community, so you can purchase this product and trust that it works!
This silky cleanser contains papain, a fruit enzyme that exfoliates and softens skin, and a vitamin B complex that detoxifies and tones. Antioxidant- and vitamin-rich pumpkin seed oil, papaya seed oil and sunflower seed oil round out the nourishing ingredients that will soothe and detoxify your skin from the inside out. This deliciously tropical-scented multitasking cleanser can be used alone or as the first step in your makeup removal and cleansing routine.
Directions:
Morning and night, warm 1-2 pumps between hands and apply to dry face. Add warm water and massage into a delicate milk. Rinse clean. May also be used with a cotton square to remove makeup—no water or rinsing required. For a deeper cleanse and light exfoliation, apply cleanser then press a warm washcloth to face and let cool. Gently remove excess cleanser with washcloth. Rinse and repeat.
TIA Review by Kat:
My normal to oily, sensitive and blemish-prone skin has gone through so many challenges. Indeed, this young skin (I’m just turning 18) with never-ending problems (blackheads, pimples, cystic acne) needed a clean break! And by that, I mean really clean!!! So, when I got the Truth In Aging email my mother forwarded to me, I was so intrigued. It was about a natural cleansing product that would not only remove make-up but also exfoliate, detoxify, soften and restore moisture and balance to my skin! It was then a no-brainer that I should put this “multi-tasker” to a serious test.
Elizabeth Dehn for One Love Organics Cleaning Oil has many wonderful claims to be excited about. Upon opening the box, I was first impressed with the very sleek packaging. The dark brown bottle with white pump looks simple yet sophisticated. There were different ways to use the product: you could warm it up in your palms, apply it to a dry face, then add a bit of warm water and massage it into a slightly creamy texture and rinse away, or you could use a cotton pad without rinsing.
I tried both ways at different times. I found that for my skin and depending on the amount of concealer and eye makeup products I have on, using the product both ways (in that order) provided the best results. As I could see from the cotton pad that hardly showed a trace of leftover makeup, I felt confident that this cleansing oil did its job. I was also pleasantly surprised by its tropical, pina-colada like scent, which I enjoyed because most makeup removers/cleansers do not have a particularly inviting smell. It was able to remove my waterproof mascara with such ease! It is true that just a couple pumps of this colorless light oil is enough to “effortlessly lift away impurities and makeup!”
There’s no denying it worked fabulously as a makeup remover the very first time I used it. Still, I used the cleanser religiously morning and night whether or not I wore makeup because I wanted to see if it truly would detox my problematic skin. After just two weeks, I noticed that my complexion had greatly improved, with blemishes remarkably diminished and skin so moist and soft!
The cleanser’s vitamin B is found in the curcubita pepo or pumpkin seed oil (which is also rich in vitamin A, C and E), papain and carica papaya or papaya seed oil (also rich in vitamin C and minerals) and provides the powerful antioxidants and fatty acids. Another key ingredient, helianthus annuus or sunflower seed oil, is rich in vitamin A, C, D and E, and known to be an excellent treatment for acne. In addition to these organic oils, Active Moisture also contains tocopherol, a natural non-GMO vitamin E, along with proprietary natural and organic fragrance. One particular ingredient I haven’t really heard of before is the di-ppg-2myreth-10 adipate. However, the cosmetic data base resource I consulted did not really find it harmful, describing it as a “skin conditioning agent, emollient, surfactant solubilizing agent.”
There is still a fourth of the product left in the 4 oz bottle after these four weeks of use. I definitely will order another one soon. I highly recommend it because it is effective in not only cleansing but also nourishing my skin, which is now looking healthier than ever before!

I can't say enough good things about this product. I've previously used cleansing oils from other brands, but this one far surpasses them all!
I reach for this at the end of the day to take off my makeup and it does a great job of dissolving my mascara and eyeliner and it washes off easily. It feels amazing on my face, smells great and I love that it is a clean, non-toxic product.
I'm kind of a product junkie, in that I like to try different products until I find the perfect one. As I've switched over to non-toxic beauty products there's been some hits and misses. This is definitely a hit and one I will repurchase over and over and will not likely stray from.

For a long time I couldn't maintain a double cleanse (cleansing with oil, then w/a water-based cleanser) routine because the steaming and towel-wiping necessary to remove the oil from the first step was too much for my skin. Because this oil rinses away cleanly, it's so much easier to double cleanse and my skin is better for it! I just wish this came in a larger size. Many sites are charging $42 for the bottle now, but I'm glad to see TIA has kept the original price of $38!

I'm so in love with this product. I'd been using a cleansing oil from the Body Shop before this, but the scent wasn't my favorite. Also, I'm a 24 year-old who loves my waterproof eyeliner and coats of mascara, and I found with the other cleansing oil, my eyes would sometimes get irritated if I really needed to do some heavy makeup removal around the eyes. Not so with this oil. It smells like the most delicious drink on the menu at a tropical resort, and just melts any and all makeup away. I truly look forward to using it every night.

Hi Gab, this cleanser rinses right off, or can even be wiped off without leaving any residue. I think all the reviews on this page back this up.

I am very intrigued by this cleanser, but I do have a question--maybe someone can help me! Will oil cleansing leave a residue on the face that prevents penetration of other products? It seems like if I were to follow with my usual toner maybe that would be fine. I just want to be sure I'm getting the most out of my serum. Thanks!

I am 51, train outdoors almost everyday, live in South Florida. Humidity, sweat, heat, sun, hormonal changes, everything seems to be against my skin.
I've been using this product for over a month and a half.
How should I put it?
I LOVE IT!
Gentle on my skin, tough on make up. I love the fragrance and how my skin feels after I use it.
Not greasy at all even though it's an oil. Only this week I tried it as a deep cleanser and exfoliator just as it says on the jar and I couldn't believe the results.
My skin was deeply cleansed and soft, my pores reduced. No black heads in sight.
Amazing. I will keep using this awesome product.
And, the price is really good too!

One of my Best finds of the year! I don't like using water to wash my face more than once a day...especially because tap water has so much junk in it ..like chlorine! Oil washing has found a permanent place in my skincare routine! Smells so good i want to eat it and i have no break outs! Putting a hot washcloth after you oil cleanse is quick and heavenly! ( i have 31 year old combination skin)

This cleanser has vitamin B with pumpkin seed oil (which is also rich in vitamin A, C and E), papain, papaya seed oil (also rich in vitamin C and minerals) which provides exfoliation, plus has the powerful antioxidants and fatty acids that are known to be beneficial to hold moisture in the skin. Another key ingredient, sunflower seed oil, is rich in vitamin A, C, D and E, and known to be an excellent treatment for acne. I bought this cleanser originally for my 20 year old daughter for her reactive, rosacea prone and hormone induced acne skin. However, I decided to try this as I have fair, sensitive and reactive, dry skin that at age 61, have large pores that cropped up for the first time in my life. My plump, moisturized skin with few wrinkles, looking significantly younger, is due to tenacious work with moisturizers and serums to keep at bay, the dry, parched shoe leather state it wants to be in. Thus, I have never been been able to or had the need to exfoliate with acid, as any acid turns my skin immediately into shoe leather. I knew the way to reduce my new large pore syndrome was to try exfoliation with acid ( I dry brush daily) without bringing my skin to a leather-like state. This is the best cleanser I have ever used in my life. This should be on the TIA mature skin set of cleansers, as I have tried many of them on the list and this oil based Vitamin B cleanser surpasses the other products I have used. To use this cleanser, one applies a small amount to your palms and rub. Instantly the oil turns into a warm foam that you massage into your skin. It has a delightful spa-like feel and smells like a tropical drink. Plus as recommended on the bottle, a warm cloth is applied over the face to deliver a short mask for exfoliation and moisturizing. Once the cleanser/mask is rinsed off, I am left with clean, make-up free, moisturized skin that does not feel tight or irritated. I have been using this twice per day and the pores are definitely receding. This cleanser is a terrific find!

ThIs cleansing oil is perfect! I love the texture and the fact that you can take a few minutes for a facial massage without having to reapply the product. It smells heavenly and leaves the skin incredibly soft, hydrated, and without a trace of makeup. I understand how some may be apprehensive about washing with an oil, but this product is worth the leap of faith. Unlike traditional oils, this washes off with water and leaves the skin feeling fabulous. Thank you, Elizabeth Dehn and One Love.

I love, love, love this! I'm surprised Elizabeth Dehn's oil cleansing doesn't yet have a "cult following" . I first discovered this method of oil cleansing while 'surfing' the internet and finding YouTube videos. According to the videos this has been a long time practice of gypsies and is credited to their beautiful skin. Right away oil cleansing interested me, especially because I do not like washing my face outside of taking a shower (I do shower everyday). After watching the videos I tried cleaning my face with olive oil for a few days but I ended up breaking out like crazy. Then I got smart and ordered Elizabeth Dehn's oil cleaning and since I have been using it I have not seen a pimple. I look forward to this heavenly experience everyday. I use it to take off my make up at night then I let a hot wash cloth sit on my face. I feel like I am going to a spa everyday and the smell of sweet papaya is tops it off. There is the added benefit of not wetting my hair or using hard tap water on my face or being paranoid that I didn't wash all the soap residue off. Then of course when I take my shower that's when I use my clarisonic.
