The Body Shop Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil


I discovered The Body Shop Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil on Katie's blog and really wanted to try it as she said it was approved by Caroline Hirons - excellent! - and she was using it as a pre-cleanse, or first step in a double cleanse, to remove make up which is just what I had been looking for.  Shortly after I went onto The Body Shop's website and as usual, they were having a sale so I picked up the cleansing oil for £6.50 instead of the full price of £10 which is for 200ml.


I've been using this almost every night to remove my make up, it even works brilliantly on eye make up.  I have been looking for my 'Holy Grail' eye make up remover for a while now and I think I've found it, even better that it's a normal cleanser so you don't need a separate product!

It has a handy pump on the top which makes it easy to dispense.  I use one pump and rub it over my entire face and eyes - particularly into eyelashes to remove mascara.  If I am feeling a bit lazy and not going to cleanse again afterwards then I will rinse with water - it emulsifies with water unlike a plain oil - and remove the excess with a damp flannel, then finish with toner and moisturiser.  I've had this for about a month now using it most days and I've still got loads left, I would definitely buy this again.

My only real complaint with this product is that the pump is a bit strong and if I don't cup my hand around it it will end up halfway across the bathroom!

  1. Looks like a great product. Too bad we don't have Body shop in here. But olive oil works great for removing makeup as well ;)) and Bioderma is totaly overhyped.

    1. Aw that's a pity. Yeah olive oil is good, but annoying to get the residue off your skin! I've never tried Bioderma but that doesn't surprise me haha meant to be very drying on the skin.

  2. Oooh, this sounds good. I'm going to try the Consious Skincare make-up remover but I reckon I'll give this a shot too at some point. xx

  3. I heard great things about this oil, sadly I hate using oil to remove my make up, I never feel "clean" enough. X

  6. I've wanted to try this for a while now. It's a bit pricey though so I might purchase one when they have some kind of sale on!
