*Because it is manufactured with a blend of plant derived oil ingredients, fine sediment may occur, but there is no problem with using the product, so please shake it before use
backed by evidenceHANSKIN has launched three ‘Cleansing Oil & Blackhead’ products that remove makeup perfectly and at the same time also allow blackhead management.
partly backedThis newly presented product is released with an oil formula optimised for each of the dry, oily and combination, and sensitive skin types, and consists of three products in total so that it can be chosen and used according to skin condition.
partly backedAs a product that makes everyday cleansing and blackhead care possible at the same time with this one product, it leaves the ingredients useful to the skin and cleanly manages makeup residue, impurities, old flakes and blackheads.
overstated‘Cleansing Oil & Blackhead PHA’ for sensitive skin cares for delicate and sensitive skin with low irritation, using a high viscosity oil that reduces the surface making direct contact with the skin.
overstatedThe PHA ingredient has a large molecular structure, so it absorbs slowly into the skin and softly melts away sebum and flakes on sensitive skin.
