I paid $13.99+tax for 150ml. It comes in a simple yet pretty plastic blue container with a additional clip piece that prevents accidental pump leakage. The formula is light, gentle, and non irritating. It's easy on the eye (no painful rinse out process if you ever get it in your eyes) and it's not scented. The down side is that it's a bit too light and doesn't emulsify so well. All in all I like The Perfect Oil, it's not as good as the Shu Uemura Cleasning Oil but at half the price it's a good value for the price.
Usage:
I use two pumps worth each time, massage it onto my face in a circular motion
add water to get the emulsification process going, and finally wipe off with a cotton pad and rinse clean. I followup with a regular cleanser to get rid of any (if any) remaining residue.
Where To Buy:
It's a Shiseido drugstore product so you may find it at your local Asian markets. It's currently sold on Amazon via Evecare: Shiseido Fitit Perfect Oil 150ml
XOXO, M
P.S: I have a small blog sale coming up!
Do you get it from the counter or online?
ReplyDelete@JeanieOBeanie it's sold asian markets and online currently at amazon: Shiseido Fitit Perfect Oil 150ml
ReplyDeleteFor this one, I think using maybe 3-4 pumps would be the more appropriate amount because of the texture of the product (smooth, light weight) and for full makeup (like foundation/eyeshadow, etc) it'd be best to use more, do it quickly and get it done~ and definitely I would remove eyemakeup like mascara separately as you don't want that to get to the rest of your complexion! :)
ReplyDeleteShu Uemura you can get away with 2-3 pumps, but I wanted to share a funny story - we went to a Shu counter in Taipei, Taiwan and my friend says she uses 2 pumps, and the lady says she is using it 'incorrectly' lol~
I'm not familiar with Shiseido products, but do they make a drugstore line exclusively for Japanese markets?
ReplyDeleteI saw this in my local drugstore! Was contemplating whether to get or not and now i gotta try them out.

yuriko.
thanks for the review! Im currently using DHC mild cleansing oil... it kinda tingles my face.. i dont really like that feeling.. does this one have that 'tingle' feeling too? Im very new to using oils.. so im not sure if they are all suppose to have that feeling? thanks!
ReplyDeleteThx for reviewing this product! I'm interested but unfortunately I don't think it's very accessible where I live either :/ I also really like the Shu cleanser but as you say, it's rather expensive >.<
ReplyDeleteI WISH that this would work for me but it contains my old enemy just like the Shu oils...MINERAL OIL!!
ReplyDeleteGlad that it works for you though.
@wuguimei yup, they make drugstore lines for the asia market. They also own other drugstore lines like majolica majorca and maquillage
ReplyDelete@Reveriepapillon (Skyla Arts) i've tried using more of the cleansing oil but it always makes my sink really yucky with this residue layer hahah
ReplyDelete@ MEOW not at all it's very light and gentle
ReplyDeletei've sold my soul to fancl but this looks lovely! If I can tear myself from fancl I'll check it out!
ReplyDeleteooh!! i have a shisheido shop in my asian square market!! WOOHOO!! i'll have to go look for it now.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally in love with grey nail polishes too this season!
ReplyDeleteJust got the Lippmann nail polish in 'Waking up in Vegas' which I find quite similar to your Wet Cement. But the Lippmann is not that shiny.
It looks really pretty on you, Mona!
I 'm currently using the MAC one and very pleased with it atm.
ReplyDeleteWould love to try this one as well tho! Thank you for bringing it to our attention, I honestly had no idea that Shiseido made a cleansing oil!
xx
i'm re-reading your review bc this hasn't worked for me, but i'm thinking i may have been using it wrong >.< going to try it out again and follow with a cotton pad to get rid of all the residue. thanks mona =)
