Have You tried the $7 Trader Joe’s Facial Cleansing Oil With Argan & Coconut Oils?

The Trader Joe’s charm section ought to have a big-@ss cautioning sign above the aisle — something akin to “BEWARE! YOU’RE ENTERING SPUR-OF-THE-MOMENT spending TERRITORY!”

That would work, or better yet a substantial LCD screen with winged dollar bills floating away, because we’re moving toward a world where we will soon be communicating solely through emojis. ? ? ? ? ?

REKLAMA

I’ve always had trouble saying “no” to anything having to finish with makeup removal, especially face oils, because what goes on, should come off, so grabbing this facial cleansing oil was a no-brainer. Somehow, TJ’s found a way to make it smell like the most heavenly mix of eucalyptus, lemon verbena and roses, although, from a quick scan of the ingredients, it doesn’t appear to have any of those things in it!

And speaking of the ingredient list, it includes different types of oils, too, not just argan and coconut. I also see sunflower, crambe abyssinica seed (which is new to me) and capyrylic/capric triglyceride.

REKLAMA

It doesn’t look like this will replace my beloved DHC Deep Cleansing Oil anytime soon. I mean, it’s fine for removing mellower makeup — essentially anything non-waterproof is fine — but it can’t deal with heavy-duty, long-wearing stuff on its own. It’s $7 for a 4-oz. bottle, though, so the price is right, and it doesn’t break me out or make my combo skin feel dry, so I’m not too crabby about it not being all that effective on long-wearing makeup. but still…I’m not about to go into hoarder mode for it. I’ll save that for when the rose Hand cream comes back!
