How to Oil Cleanse: The Ultimate Guide to Balancing Your Skin
We have been bombarded with specific skincare buzzwords and complicated multi-step routines. We seem to have become used to having detailed instructions on exactly what time of day or night to use specific products—from eye creams and night creams to face creams and body lotions.
But the truth is, you know your skin better than anyone else. With One Oil, there are no rigid rules necessary; you can use it exactly as your skin needs it.
However, if you have never cleansed with a botanical oil before, the concept can seem completely counterintuitive. Won't adding oil make your skin oilier or cause breakouts? The short answer is no. Cleansing with natural plant oils helps to balance your skin's natural moisture barrier without stripping its delicate pH level. Because like dissolves like, natural oils are incredibly brilliant at breaking down excess sebum, stubborn makeup, and daily impurities without triggering the irritation that foaming cleansers cause.
The Step-by-Step Oil Cleansing Method
Step 1: The Daily Cleanse
Apply a few drops of One Oil directly onto damp skin. Give yourself a gentle, upward facial massage to break down surface dirt and makeup. Take a soft, wet cloth and gently wipe everything away.
Step 2: The Deep Cleanse (Facial Steaming)
For a deeper, spa-like treatment, apply One Oil all over your face. Take a clean cloth, soak it in warm water, and lay it over your skin for a few seconds. The gentle warmth creates a light steam effect that helps loosen trapped impurities in your pores. Gently wipe away.
Step 3: Nourish & Protect
If your skin requires a little extra hydration after cleansing, simply press a few more drops of One Oil into your clean skin as a deeply nourishing evening moisturiser.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will oil cleansing cause acne or oily skin?
No. Traditional foaming cleansers strip your skin, causing it to overcompensate by producing more oil. Natural plant oils like Jojoba and Argan help normalise sebum production and calm inflammation, making it excellent for acne-prone or teenage skin.
Can I use this for double cleansing?
Absolutely. One Oil is perfect as the first step of a double cleanse to break down sunscreen and makeup before following up with your regular wash, or it can be used completely on its own for a single, nourishing cleanse.

I made the switch to hand made, natural products after trying a lot of the so called ‘natural’ skin care brands.
If you look into what goes into skincare by reading the ingredient labels and researching ingredients it shows how much misinformation is out there. The term ‘natural’ doesn’t have to apply to 100% of ingredients.
Once I started researching plant based oils I was amazed to find the endless benefits they carry - from antioxidants to fatty acids, anti inflammatory properties and UV protection. This is ancient medicine and old remedies. Not only this they are multi tasking geniuses… Oils can cleanse, heal and moisturise. They can balance skin that’s out of sync and they can soothe skin conditions. With so many benefits it seems superfluous to have so many bottles and jars in our bathrooms. Why have one product for face and another for body?
Multitasking ingredients and natural fragrance. ONE OIL is a balanced blend of four cold pressed oils and four steam distilled essential oils. Use it to cleanse and moisturise.
