Le meilleur produit pour les yeux

Très efficace et doux pour les yeux , enlève le mascara sans abîmer, un excellent produit pour la peau et quelques gouttes dans mon bain de pied

J’utilise ce produit depuis 15 ans

Warning!

The formula for this product has been changed and now includes a tree nut oil (Macadamia) which may cause an allergic reaction in individuals with tree nut allergies. I have used this product for 30 years and I was extremely upset that the formula was changed and it caused me to have a severe allergic reaction on my face. I had to be treated by a dermatologist. This used to be a wonderful product and was part of my skin care routine for all these years.

Refreshing!!

I have been using the Essential Oil for sometime now, and absolutely love it! It takes off your makeup with ease, and feels great on your face.

Whitney wilkie

I’ve used Aloette for 38 years and the one product I cannot live without is this one! It takes off your mascara without injuring your lashes. I believe it is a water based oil and it doesn’t leave your skin oily, it washes right off. It is a wonderful product!!

Wish I could give 5 stars

I love this product! It takes everything off so easily, even my eyelash glue which some products aren’t able to completely remove properly. 4 stars because the pump doesn’t work (item was gifted to me) so I have to open the bottle. Otherwise a truly great product.

Awesome makeup remover

Love love this cleanser! Removes makeup quickly and leaves skin so soft.

Amazing cleanser

I love this product right from the refreshing smell, to the smooth feel of it on my skin. Best of all I enjoy the way it cleanses my skin. Leaves a fresh clean feel.

Essential Cleaning Oil

This is the best product I've seen on the market that can clean your face plus remove makeup and false eyelashes.

Essential cleansing oil

This product is great for removing eye makeup

Makeup be gone

I use this every single night to remove my makeup and clean my face. It's also great cocktailed with your moisturizer or City Detox. Never leave home without it. It's so gentle and works amazing!

Magic

This deep pore cleanser melts your makeup off without excessive rubbing!
Its the best!

Essential cleansing oil

I just started using this product about two weeks ago for removing my make up including mascara. My eye lashes have grown because of this product!!! I love it! I follow up facial cleanse with pure radiance cleanser after removing my make up with the essential oil for even better bonus on my skin looking more radiant than ever! Don’t let the name scare you if you have oily skin like a do either , it does not make your skin more oily! It nourishes your skin!

Wow!!!

Great for removing makeup! It's leaves your skin feeling so soft and smooth. A versatile product....like most Aloette products

Great makeup remover

This product wipes off my makeup so easily while cleansing my face at the same time. Doesn’t burn the eyes and my face always feels so soft after. My favourite cleanser after a long day of wearing makeup

BEST Cleanser EVER!

I have been using Aloette for 38 yrs. The Essential Cleansing oil is a MUST HAVE for me. It is my FAVOURITE cleanser because my skin feels so smooth immediately after. I wash my face the minute I get home from work because I want to get that fresh feeling for the whole evening. It dissolves all my makeup instantly. I gently massage it with wet fingers and it just glides without feeling oily. The natural ingredients are important to me and that it whisks away the " grunge and grime" of the day in seconds.
I would NEVER be without it!

Have You Tried Essential Cleaning Oil This Way?

I love Aloette's Essential Cleansing Oil. It melts my makeup and liquid eyeliner away with ease when I'm ready to remove it. My eyelashes love it too. They are long and healthy since it keeps my lashes from breaking, the vitamins are great. But, a little tip I fill a bowl with warm water, I add about 4 drops of Essential Cleaning Oil and soak my cuticles. It gives great hydration to my hands, they feel so soft and I continue with my mani. Try it!

Love removing my makeup with this!

I love removing my makeup with the Essential Cleansing Oil! It comes right off, and I just gently rub it on my face. I love to double cleanse with this and the City Detox at night! They are powerhouses, and work so well together!!

Completely re-hydrating!

I use this oil for everything!! My hair, my face, and my body. Provides the perfect hydration to cleanse before bed so I can wake up with perfectly balanced skin!!
Love this and would recommend to everyone

Fantastic for "melting the day" off your face!

Not only does it have 7 essential oils that bath your face in goodness, it is the best makeup cleaner I have ever used. It's also great to add a few drops to your bath water to help hydrate your entire body. I cocktail it with my City Detox at the end of the day for great deep cleanse - LOVE how my face feels after using it. I HIGHLY recommend this product - to use alone or cocktailed with your favorite cleanser.

so many uses

I love this product it truly is a beautiful addition to skincare when you use it in your moisturizer. I will add 1 pump to my am and pm moisturizer blend it together an apply all over my face and ,my face is left with the dewing hydrated feeling. So nice to add in. I have also used in my hair as well as a hair treatment and leave in until next washing. Hair must be wet when applying.

I' hooked!

I've always been afraid to try oil-based products as I feared my 'normal' skin would become oily. Well, let's just say I tried this product for the first time last night and I am officially hooked! Not only did it do an amazing job cleansing my face/neck, I woke up this morning and my skin was the softest it's been ages!

Amazing hydration!

Essential cleansing oil is my favorite cleanser. Made with 7 essential oils and is water soluable- it is hydrating and nurtishing. My dry skin has the Aloette "glow" after every use!

Makes makeup wipe right off

The is no better makeup remover out there! And it doesn't bother my sensitive eyes :-)

Essential Cleansing Oil is the best!

Essential cleansing oil is one of my most favourite Aloette products.
It is such a versatile product.
I use it every night to wash away my makeup, dirt and stress from the day.
