Heartleaf 77% Clear Cleansing Oil — Reddit Reviews
by Anua
Updated September 23, 2026
Makeup-removing oil cleanser that’s weirdly polarizing; can clog some faces.
What the community says
An oil cleanser for the first cleanse: it breaks down sunscreen, mascara, and general gunk, then gets rinsed before your second cleanser. People with rosacea or drier skin sometimes love it; acne-prone users report clogs, cystic breakouts, burning, and eye sting.
