Isopropyl myristate cleansing oil removes sunscreen and makeup efficiently; irritation risk.

What the community says

An oil cleanser built around isopropyl myristate, glycerin, rice bran oil, and jojoba, it emulsifies sunscreen and makeup for a first cleansing step. It suits combination-skin double-cleansing routines, but fragrance components and eye irritation make sensitive or perioral-dermatitis-prone skin a gamble.
