Aesop Parsley Seed Facial Cleansing Oil

my face has always broken out when using oil based skincare products so when I got a sample of this it stayed unopened for a while. it wasn't until I ran out of my regular face wash that I finally tried it and I was so impressed by how smooth and soft it made my skin without leaving a residue. the smell is also so good, kind of earthy and reminiscent of a spa. this is the product that got me interested in Aesop's skincare and now I have a full size of this plus a moisturizer from them I love. and I was skeptical about the pour top but it honestly works really well; every upside down shake neatly produces a drop of oil so it's easy to control how much you want to come out. this cleanser has been perfect for me during the winter months and any time I've felt like my ... Moremy face has always broken out when using oil based skincare products so when I got a sample of this it stayed unopened for a while. it wasn't until I ran out of my regular face wash that I finally tried it and I was so impressed by how smooth and soft it made my skin without leaving a residue. the smell is also so good, kind of earthy and reminiscent of a spa. this is the product that got me interested in Aesop's skincare and now I have a full size of this plus a moisturizer from them I love. and I was skeptical about the pour top but it honestly works really well; every upside down shake neatly produces a drop of oil so it's easy to control how much you want to come out. this cleanser has been perfect for me during the winter months and any time I've felt like my skin needs a little bit more rr, and it's been a dream to use as well!

I apply it directly to my dry face and massage. It does a great job in breaking down all my makeup, and I absolutely need that. I wear a full face of makeup everyday for work - I work in cosmetics retail as a makeup artist. The downside is that this stings my eyes quite badly. As I need a cleansing oil to remove my mascara and eye makeup, it's not an area I can really avoid. I have tried to be more gentle, and even put it on a cotton pad/cotton ball, but I get the same effect.This oil emulsifies relatively easily but I do find the skin to have a bit of an oily finish afterwards. This doesn't really concern me all that much as I said, I always follow up with a double cleanse. This could be of consequence to someone who just wants a one and done cleanser.Would I purchase the full size? Unfortunately I wouldn't. The price of the product is very high at $59 AUD, and it unfortunately stings my eyes. The cleanser does do the job, absolutely, but it's just not for me.

This cleanser is literally one of my absolute favourites. It was recommended to me by a gf. I didnt want to spend too much without trying it first so I dashed into libertys and got myself samples. After trying the samples I purchased the product. Firstly, it smells amazing which is a bonus. All the ingredients used are natural and don't harm your skin as thier arent any toxic chemicals used. I have the worst skin ever! However, after 2 days of using this I noticed my pores were smaller, i was less oily and my skin looked clearer. I would 100% recommend this cleanser.

Aesop Rocks!

I am a Super-Fan of Aesop, in fact, I'd go as far as to say, if I was told I could only use one skincare brand for the rest of my life, I'd choose Aesop. From the aesthetics of the packaging, totally fabulous scents and luxurious, top quality ingredients to really actually working beautifully. This Cleansing Oil is stunning, it goes on like silk, is not greasy, and really removes your makeup and grime from the day.. Try it, you wont be sorry...

Fantastic

I absolutely love this cleanser. Feels luxurious to use. I spend time massaging it in and it feels so nice on the skin that its not a chore. Removes all make up. My skin feels amazing afterwards makes it so so soft and prepped for make up. Will forever purchase this. I have used a lot of oil cleansers as I'm skincare obsessed but this tops them all.

Favorite Cleansing Oil

This is my favorite cleansing oil. Removes makeup and leaves skin feeling soft and cleansed. I also appreciate the glass packaging; so many other brands rely so heavily on plastic.

Great Cleanser

I recently started using Aesop and after purchasing a few items, I’ve now bought most of their skincare! This product is beautiful, it’s really unusual in as far as it’s oily but slightly thicker and you only need a small amount. It’s fantastic at removing eye makeup and has a lovely faint botanical scent. I’ve been using ESPA for years but I’m really enjoying this brand.

Great for beard flakes

I have an annoyingly flaky beard and this is the BEST product to get it under control. It's a bit pricey but I only need to use it when things get a bit out of control and a small amount goes a long, long way. I think I buy 1 bottle a year now that I manage my skin/beard a bit more closely. Added bonus is how many people comment on how clear and nice my skin looks which is nice since I normally wouldn't pay too close attention.

LOVE IT!

I am a big fan of Aesop and have been using the parsley seed facial cleanser for a few years. I am so pleased that Space NK has added it to their range of Aesop products available in store. It feels luxurious and thick and works into a rich lather on the skin. As with all Aesop products the smell is amazing and skin is left feeling very clean. I sometimes add a few drops of Aesop Remove when removing make up (unfortunately Space NK does not stock 'Remove'). This is an amazing face cleanser which lasts a very long time and is great value for money. I would definitely recommend this product as it is worth every penny.

Lovely oil cleanser

After trying multiple oil cleansers, I finally found home with this one - just going through my third bottle and ordered a fourth. Easy to use, very gentle yet thoroughly cleanses (I have combination skin with acne and this works really well). Highly recommend this product to anyone!
