Purito SEOUL FROM GREEN CLEANSING OIL 200ML

Values you can verify: 100% Genuine (Adilsons sourcing policy) · Fragrance-Free (no added Parfum detected in the declared INCI) · Pregnancy-Safe (no retinoids, acids, hydroquinone, or chemical UV filters detected).

If your skin still feels tight and dry after a "gentle" foaming cleanser, the problem is often upstream: without an oil-based first step, that foaming cleanser is doing double duty — trying to lift sunscreen AND clean skin — and surfactant-based cleansers aren't built to dissolve water-resistant sunscreen efficiently, so they compensate by being more stripping than they'd otherwise need to be.

Pros: minimalist, transparent 11-ingredient formula with five named plant oils; effective sunscreen/makeup removal per multiple independent sources; leaves skin neither oily nor tight, per reviewer reports.
Caveats: not a leave-on treatment, no brightening/acne/barrier actives; at least one reviewer described the natural smell as closer to "cooking oil" than neutral; must always be followed by a proper water-based second cleanse.

In Mauritius heat, the "grimy" feeling by midday is mostly sebum and sweat doing their job, not dirt — but washing more than twice daily, or scrubbing harder to feel "really clean," strips the skin's acid mantle (target pH 4.5-5.5) and triggers compensatory sebum overproduction: the exact oiliness you were trying to fix.

This oil's role in breaking that cycle is specific: it dissolves oil-soluble buildup (sunscreen, sebum, makeup) through oil-to-oil chemistry rather than through harsh surfactants or scrubbing, letting your actual water-based second cleanser do a lighter, less-stripping job. Used correctly as a first cleanse, it reduces the temptation to over-scrub with a strong foaming cleanser to compensate for leftover sunscreen film.

Step 1 — When: PM, as your first cleanse (or AM if you wore a heavy overnight product).
Step 2 — How much: roughly 1-2 pumps or a coin-to-tablespoon-size amount for the full face.
Step 3 — How: massage into completely dry skin for 30-60 seconds, add water to emulsify until milky, then rinse — always follow with a water-based second cleanser.

Introduce this as the ONLY new product in your routine. Wait a full 14 days before adding anything else. This isolation window ensures you can identify whether any reaction is caused by this specific product.

This is primarily a PM product. If used AM (for example, after a heavy overnight sleeping mask or balm): 1. Cleansing Oil, massage 30-60 seconds, emulsify, rinse → 2. Gentle water-based cleanser (optional second cleanse) → 3. Toner → 4. Serum → 5. Moisturizer → 6. Sunscreen.

There is no photosensitizing concern with this formula — it contains no acids or retinoids that would restrict AM use.

1. Cleansing Oil — massage into dry skin 30-60 seconds, add water, emulsify to milky, rinse → 2. Water-based second cleanser (mandatory, not optional, if you wore sunscreen or makeup) → 3. Toner → 4. Treatment serums → 5. Moisturizer.

This occupies the very first slot of the PM routine — everything applied afterward works better once sunscreen film is fully off, since active ingredients layered over residual SPF film don't penetrate as intended.

Technique — "Emulsify first": massage onto completely dry skin and dry hands for 30-60 seconds before adding any water — adding water too early prevents the oil from properly dissolving sunscreen and makeup. Once you add water, continue massaging until the texture turns milky, then rinse thoroughly.

Required skin state: dry — this formula needs dry skin and dry hands at the start to work as designed.

Keep this away from direct, sustained contact with the eyes during massage as a general precaution with any oil cleanser, and rinse promptly if any product gets into the eyes.

This is an encyclopedia map of all product types. You do not use all of these daily. You select modules based on your skin state.

Global rules: viscosity ladder thinnest → thickest, water-phase before oil-phase, treatments before seals. Wait-time defaults: watery layers 10-20s, serum layers 30-60s, before sunscreen 10-15 min if going outdoors. Amount defaults: toner/essence 5-8 drops; serum/ampoule 2-3 drops or 1 pump; eye product ½ rice-grain per eye; gel moisturizer 1-1.5 peas, cream 1-2 peas; occlusive seal rice-grain to pea-size; sunscreen 2-finger rule for face plus 1 finger for neck. Hard cap rule: if the routine pills, stings, or feels heavy, reduce layers, not increase.

AM Maximum Stack: 1. Rinse/gentle cleanse (optional; this oil can sit here if needed AM) → 2. pH-prep toner (optional) → 3. Hydrating toner layers (optional) → 4. Essence (optional) → 5. Mist (optional) → 6. Booster/soothing serum (optional) → 7. Antioxidant lane (optional) → 8. Pigment-support lane (optional) → 9. Hydration serum lane (optional) → 10. Oil-control lane (optional) → 11. Peptide/repair lane (optional) → 12. Eye serum/cream (optional) → 13. Moisturizer → 14. Optional sealing layer (only if dry/AC) → 15. Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ (non-negotiable) → 16. Lip SPF (optional).

In AM, prioritize comfort and SPF adherence over stacking. In high humidity, fewer layers often perform better.

PM Maximum Stack: 1. Micellar pre-cleanse (optional) → 2. Oil Cleanser/Balm — this product's slot, if SPF/makeup was worn (massage on dry skin 30-60s, emulsify with water, rinse) → 3. Water cleanser (second cleanse, proceed immediately) → 4. pH-prep toner (optional) → 5. Hydrating toner layers (optional) → 6. Essence (optional) → 7. Soothing/barrier serum (optional) → 8. Anchor treatment product (optional) → 9. Targeted serum (optional) → 10. Moisturizer → 11. Sleeping mask (optional) → 12. Occlusive seal (optional) → 13. Spot treatment/patch (as needed) → 14. Lip sleeping mask (optional).

Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep "one lane" per night.

Lane strictness: Retinoid OR Exfoliation OR Strong Vitamin C (LAA) OR Acne-control active per routine; barrier/hydration can always accompany. If unsure, default to the safest lane — barrier/hydration — and reduce layers.

Rung: fluid oil-phase — this is the very first product applied to skin in a routine (onto dry, unwashed skin), before any water-based step.

Layering rule: this product runs opposite the usual "water before oil" sequencing, because its whole job is to dissolve oil-soluble residue before the water-phase routine begins.

Phase compatibility: oil-phase, self-emulsifying (turns milky with added water via Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate).

Prerequisites: before relying on this as your nightly first cleanse, your routine should already include a gentle water-based second cleanser — this oil alone is not a complete cleanse and can leave a residual film if not properly emulsified.

Primary target: complete removal of sunscreen, makeup and sebum via oil-dissolves-oil chemistry — a mechanical/solvent action, not a biological treatment.

Secondary benefits: the named plant oils (olive, sunflower, jojoba, sweet almond, grape seed) carry inherent fatty-acid and Vitamin E content that can leave a light conditioning after-feel during the brief cleanse contact window, though this is a supporting characteristic rather than a primary treatment claim.

What this product cannot do: it cannot treat acne, hyperpigmentation, or barrier damage — it is a cleansing step, not a leave-on treatment. It cannot replace your second cleanser; used alone, sunscreen/makeup removal is typically incomplete for most people.

Second cleanse (mandatory pairing) — Purito SEOUL Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cleanser: a low-pH, low-lather gel cleanser designed to follow an oil-based first cleanse without re-stripping the skin — the correct same-brand double-cleanse pairing. Apply immediately after rinsing off the oil, PM. Alternatives, all independently verified in stock: Anua 8 Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Gentle Gel Cleanser, THE FACE SHOP Tea Tree Pore Clarifying Gel Cleanser, I'M FROM Mugwort Gel Cleanser.

Toner to follow — Purito SEOUL Wonder Releaf Centella Toner Unscented: re-hydrates and pH-balances after the double cleanse. Alternatives: Anua Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner, MIXSOON Centella Asiatica Toner, SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Toning Toner.

Moisturizer to finish — Purito SEOUL Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream: replenishes lipids a double cleanse can remove. Alternatives: Purito SEOUL Hydro Wave Deep Sea Cream, Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream, Anua Birch Moisture Boosting Cream.

Pilling/residue note: this oil doesn't pill with other products since it's rinsed off before anything else is applied — the main risk is under-emulsifying it, leaving a greasy residue rather than true pilling. Mitigation: always add enough water to see the texture fully turn milky before rinsing.

MYTH: "Oil cleansers make oily and acne-prone skin worse." REALITY: oil dissolves oil (sebum, sunscreen, makeup) more effectively and gently than surfactants alone; used correctly with a proper second cleanse, it does not increase oiliness — over-washing with harsh foaming cleansers is the more common cause of rebound oiliness.

MYTH: "A cleansing oil should smell pleasant if it's good quality." REALITY: unrefined and minimally-processed plant oils (like olive oil) often carry their own natural, food-adjacent smell that has nothing to do with formula quality or effectiveness — a "neutral" smell usually means added fragrance, which this product deliberately avoids.

Hard water note: Mauritius tap water hardness varies by region; hard water can leave a mineral (calcium-stearate) film after any cleanse, causing a tight after-feel. This oil's dissolving job is unaffected by water hardness, but follow with the Centella Toner above to counteract any hard-water residue from the rinse step.

Full INCI: Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Glyceryl Caprylate, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin, Vegetable Oil, Tocopherol.

This is an 11-ingredient anhydrous oil blend with no water phase, so the usual "1% line" convention (which assumes a water-led formula) doesn't cleanly apply — every named oil here is a functional cleansing-oil component, not a trace additive, so there is no fairy-dusting concern to flag.

This INCI was read via a search-engine summary aggregating INCIDecoder's and CosDNA's listings rather than a direct page fetch (blocked in this session) — treated as medium-confidence.

Preservative system: Glyceryl Caprylate and Ethylhexylglycerin function as a paraben-free antimicrobial/humectant-booster pairing typical of modern fragrance-free K-beauty oil formulas.

Fragrance status: Fragrance-Free — no Parfum/fragrance ingredient or essential oil detected in the declared INCI.

Scent description: at least one independent reviewer described the natural smell as closer to "cooking oil" than a neutral or pleasant fragrance — consistent with an unrefined olive-oil-forward blend. This is the natural smell of the plant oils themselves, not an added fragrance.

EU 26 allergen screen: none of the 26 EU-regulated fragrance allergens detected in the declared INCI.

Alcohol disclosure: Alcohol-Free — no ethanol or drying alcohol in the declared INCI.

Halal: Self-assessed*

*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No ethanol from fermentation, no porcine-derived ingredients, and no haram animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared ingredient list. This is NOT a formal Halal certification. Muslims with stricter requirements should consult their own scholars.

Vegan: Self-assessed* (all-plant-oil formula, consistent with independent sources describing this product as vegan)

*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared list. This is NOT a formal vegan certification by The Vegan Society or equivalent body.

Cruelty-Free: Brand-stated, uncertified*

*Brand-stated policy. Not independently certified by Leaping Bunny, PETA, or equivalent third-party audit — independent trackers largely agree Purito is not currently listed on either database despite the brand's own claim.

*Brand states the product does not sell in Mainland China retail, which is consistent with (but not proof of) the cruelty-free claim.

Microplastic-Free: Yes — no microplastic-forming polymers detected in the declared INCI.

Reef safety: the declared INCI contains no oxybenzone or octinoxate — since this is a rinse-off product intended to wash down the drain rather than a leave-on sunscreen, standard reef-safety UV-filter concerns don't apply here in the way they would to a sunscreen.

MFDS classification: Not confirmed as a registered Functional Cosmetic — cleansers are essentially never MFDS Functional in Korea, and no evidence of registration was found for this SKU. Treated as General Cosmetic.

Clinical evidence: no independent clinical trial or sample size was found for this specific SKU. The mechanical cleansing function (oil dissolving oil-soluble residue) is basic, well-established cosmetic chemistry, not a claim requiring clinical proof.

Naming note: Purito sells a separate, differently-formulated "From Green Deep Foaming Cleanser" under a similarly-branded "From Green" name — that is a distinct product with its own INCI, not this cleansing oil. Don't conflate the two when checking ingredients or reviews.

Fungal Acne Safety: low-risk in this rinse-off format. Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate is a fatty-acid (oleic) ester that community fungal-acne trackers flag as conditional in leave-on formulas. Because this oil is massaged on for under a minute and then fully emulsified and rinsed away, contact time is far too short for it to meaningfully feed Malassezia — flagged for transparency, not as an equivalent risk to a leave-on product containing the same ester.

Color baseline: expect a clear to pale golden-green oil, consistent with an olive-oil-forward blend; a rancid smell or cloudy, separated appearance signals oxidation.

Storage: keep the bottle closed and away from direct sunlight or prolonged bathroom heat/humidity, which accelerates plant-oil oxidation — Tocopherol helps slow this but doesn't prevent it indefinitely.

Spoilage signs: rancid ("off") smell distinct from the normal olive-oil-like scent, cloudiness, or visible separation that doesn't re-blend with shaking. When in doubt, discard.

Patch test: inner forearm for 24 hours, then behind the ear for 24 hours, before full facial use — particularly relevant if you have a tree-nut-adjacent sensitivity, given the sweet almond oil in this formula.

If adverse reaction: STOP ALL ACTIVES. For 72 hours, use ONLY gentle cleanser + plain moisturizer + mineral SPF. NO acids, retinoids, Vitamin C, exfoliants, or essential oils. After 72 hours, reintroduce ONE product per 14 days.

Emergency stop signals: hives, swelling, blistering, persistent burning, or breathing difficulty — seek emergency care.

1. Applying to wet skin — the oil needs dry skin to properly dissolve oil-based residue. 2. Skipping the second cleanse, leaving a residual film overnight. 3. Rinsing before the texture turns fully milky. 4. Using it as your only cleanse if you wear daily sunscreen or makeup. 5. Assuming the natural oil smell means the product is spoiled — check for a genuinely rancid smell and cloudiness, not just "not neutral," before discarding a fresh bottle.

Overuse threshold: using this more than once daily (beyond one PM cleanse, plus an occasional AM cleanse if needed) offers no added benefit and increases the risk of over-cleansing the skin barrier.

Usage math: at 200ml with roughly 1-2 pumps (approximately 3-4ml) per use, once daily, that's approximately 50-65 uses per bottle.

Lifespan: at recommended dosage, that's roughly 1.5-2 months of daily use; using more than needed per application shortens this without improving makeup/sunscreen removal, since the mechanical dissolving action doesn't scale linearly with amount past a certain point.

Reorder timing: plan to reorder around the 6-7 week mark, roughly two weeks before you expect to run out, to allow for delivery time.

This oil's job is complete sunscreen/makeup removal — it sits at the very start of the PM routine, before any water-based step.

PM: 1. Cleansing Oil — massage 30-60s dry, emulsify, rinse → 2. Water-based second cleanser (mandatory) → 3. Toner → 4. Treatment serums → 5. Moisturizer.

If you wore heavy or waterproof sunscreen that day: use a slightly larger amount and extend the dry-massage time to a full 60 seconds before adding water.
If you have active acne lesions: use a lighter touch over those specific areas rather than a full firm massage, and still complete the second cleanse.
If the smell is off-putting on a given night: a shorter, brisker massage still gets the job done — the scent dissipates once rinsed, it doesn't linger on skin afterward per most reviews.

Bundle (Complete Double-Cleanse + Barrier Routine): this oil + Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cleanser + Wonder Releaf Centella Toner. How to use: oil first, gel cleanser second, toner third, every PM. Why included: same-brand double-cleanse pairing designed for gentle, non-stripping removal of a full day's SPF, followed by a fragrance-free toner to restore comfort.

The recommendations above are based on formulation synergy with this Cleansing Oil, not on margin or stock levels. If a pairing does not exist in our catalog, we say so. If you already own a product that fills the same role, use what you have first.

If the olive-oil-forward smell of this product isn't for you, the in-catalog SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil (verified in stock) offers a similar first-cleanse mechanism in a lighter, more neutral-smelling texture, trading the minimalist five-plant-oil story for the brand's Centella-forward formulation approach.

Choose the *Purito From Green Cleansing Oil* over the *SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil* if you need a maximally minimalist, transparent ingredient list: 11 named ingredients with no proprietary extract blend, versus a formula built around a specific botanical extract story.

Upgrade triggers (IF/THEN): If you specifically want to avoid unnamed "extract" blends and prefer auditing exactly five named oils, THEN this product's simpler list serves that better. If the natural olive-oil smell is a genuine dealbreaker for your nightly routine, THEN the SKIN1004 alternative's lighter, more neutral-smelling formula is the more sustainable daily choice.

Timing and lane: both occupy the same first-cleanse slot — use one, not both, in the same routine.

Don't upgrade to this one if: scent tolerance during your PM routine is a real limiting factor for you — a milder-smelling alternative you'll actually use consistently beats a "better on paper" formula you avoid.

Decision close: if ingredient-list transparency and a five-plant-oil formula genuinely matter to you, this is worth choosing. If scent tolerance is the deciding factor, the alternative is the safer, more sustainable daily pick. Consistency beats complexity.

This product's PRIMARY function is: oil-based first-cleanse removal of sunscreen, makeup and sebum. You do NOT need this if you already own another functioning oil, balm, or cleansing-milk first-cleanser — finish your current one before buying a duplicate.

Inventory audit: check for an already-open cleansing oil or balm in your bathroom, including its own-brand sibling — the Purito From Green Avocado Cleansing Balm — before adding a second first-cleanse product to the rotation.

Stacking assessment: No Benefit to running two different first-cleanse oils/balms in the same routine — pick one per cleanse; there's no reason to use both this oil and the avocado balm back-to-back.

Quick verification tips: Purito's own site states a packaging QR code can verify authenticity in about 10 seconds — check that any QR code on your unit resolves to an official Purito page. Also confirm both Korean and English text appear on the box, and that a batch/manufacturing code is printed on the bottle itself, not only the outer carton.

Purito SEOUL positions itself around minimal, sensitive-skin-friendly formulas — many fragrance-free by default — with sustainability choices the brand cites on its own product pages (recycled-plastic packaging, soy-based ink). The "From Green" line (this oil and its companion avocado cleansing balm) applies that same minimal-ingredient philosophy to the makeup-removal step specifically, favoring named plant oils over synthetic surfactant-heavy formulas.

Research for this exact product surfaced reviews from iHerb's aggregate rating page, SkinSort's self-reported user-tag data, and an independent review at consciousbrandsreport.com — no dedicated Reddit r/AsianBeauty or r/SkincareAddiction thread specifically for this product was found this pass.

One reviewer described switching to this as a lower-cost alternative to Dear Klairs' well-known oil cleanser and found it removed sunscreen and makeup just as effectively, though they specifically noted the smell was closer to "cooking oil" than a neutral scent. SkinSort's aggregated self-reported tags showed roughly half of respondents rating it as working well and just over a third describing the texture as light. No major complaint beyond the scent note surfaced in the sources found this pass.

Common praise theme: effective, minimalist, non-stripping sunscreen/makeup removal at a reasonable size (200ml). Common complaint theme: the natural olive-oil-forward smell, noted by at least one source as more "cooking oil" than neutral.

Sustainability: the brand cites recycled-plastic packaging and soy-based ink on its own product pages; check the bottle's resin code for local recycling guidance in Mauritius.

Do I still need a second cleanser after this? Yes — this oil is a first cleanse designed to dissolve sunscreen/makeup; a water-based second cleanser is needed to fully remove the emulsified residue and any water-soluble impurities.

Will this clog my pores or cause breakouts? The formula is a blend of lightweight plant oils designed to rinse cleanly rather than sit on skin; because it's a rinse-off product with under a minute of contact time, the fatty-acid ester some trackers flag for leave-on products carries substantially lower risk here.

Why does it smell like cooking oil? The olive-oil-forward, minimally-processed formula carries its own natural scent since no fragrance is added to mask it — this is expected, not a sign of a bad batch.

Is this suitable for oily or acne-prone skin? Yes, when followed by a proper second cleanse — oil-based first cleansers do not inherently worsen oily or acne-prone skin, and moving away from a harsh double-foaming-cleanse habit can actually help.

Can I use this if I have a nut allergy? The formula contains Sweet Almond Oil — if you have a tree-nut-adjacent allergy, patch test carefully or consult an allergist before use.

First cleanse (double cleansing)

Using an oil cleanser first to dissolve oil-soluble makeup and sunscreen, followed by a water-based cleanser to remove the rest.

Emulsify

The process of an oil-based product turning milky when water is added, which allows it to rinse away rather than leave an oily film.

Anhydrous

A formula containing no water — this oil is entirely plant-oil-based until you add water yourself during the emulsifying step.

Acid mantle

The skin's naturally slightly acidic surface layer (pH 4.5-5.5) that helps protect against bacteria and moisture loss; over-cleansing disrupts it.

PAO

Period After Opening — the small jar-shaped icon with a number of months, showing how long a product stays good once opened.

Best for: daily sunscreen/makeup wearers who want a minimalist, transparent-ingredient first-cleanse oil that won't strip an already-sensitive or dry barrier.

Key benefits: just 11 named ingredients with five recognizable plant oils; effective, gentle sunscreen/makeup dissolution per multiple independent sources; fragrance-free formula; low fungal-acne risk given the short rinse-off contact time.

Keep in mind: the natural olive-oil-forward smell won't suit everyone and is not a sign of a defective batch; this is a first-cleanse step only and must be followed by a proper second cleanser; contains Sweet Almond Oil, worth noting for tree-nut-adjacent sensitivities.
