Are oil cleansers good for oily or acne-prone skin?
Reviewer consensus
Verified-purchase reviewers across these listings report that lightweight oils marketed for pore and sebum care are commonly used on oily and combination skin as the first step of a double cleanse. The key is always following with a water-based cleanser so nothing is left sitting on the skin. Patch-testing is still advisable since formulas with added fragrance or rich plant oils can disagree with some acne-prone users.
