Two pumps into dry hands, and the oil has an unusual body to it — it does not run off, it cushions, so your fingertips can circle across your face without pressing. Heavy makeup and the grime sitting in pores float up slowly; rinse with lukewarm water and what is left is softness, not squeak. MINON's cleansing oil for sensitive skin, newly released in Japan in August 2026.
[A Cushioning Oil — No Need to Rub] The texture is thick and springy, reducing friction between fingertips and skin during cleansing — the thing sensitive skin needs most.
[Amino-Acid Based Moisturising Oil] Lauroyl glutamate di(octyldodecyl/phytosteryl/behenyl) holds moisture in while the oil lifts grime away, so skin does not tighten after rinsing.
[Plant-Derived Amino-Acid Cleansing Agent] Sodium lauroyl methylalaninate removes makeup and sebum gently.
[9 Moisture-Retaining Amino Acids + GL] Valine, threonine, serine, leucine, proline, histidine, glycine, alanine and arginine with glycerin replenish the moisturising components of the stratum corneum.
[Eyelash Extension Friendly] Safe with lash extensions applied using standard cyanoacrylate glue.
Best for: anyone who wears heavy makeup but flushes and stings easily; skin that micellar water or cleansing milk never quite clears from pores; anyone looking for a cleansing oil that does not leave tightness.
How to use: Keep the face dry. Dispense an appropriate amount (about 2 pumps) into clean, dry hands, spread gently over the whole face, and blend with makeup using small spiral motions with your fingertips. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with a face wash.
