Anua Cleansing Oil alternatives without fragrance

Which bottle should you choose?

Pick Purito if avoiding added fragrance is the deciding factor and a rich oil texture appeals to you. Purito lists it for all skin types and daily use, including sensitive skin. The two Anua bottles are separate products, despite names that look like they were assigned by the same committee.1

Will Purito still have a smell?

Purito can have a mild scent from its natural ingredients. Its formula includes olive, sunflower, jojoba, sweet almond and grape seed oils. Choose it for the absence of added fragrance, not because you expect an entirely scentless cleanser.1

How do you use Purito From Green Cleansing Oil?

1. 1Dispense 2 to 3 pumps into dry palms and apply to a dry face.
2. 2Massage gently for 30 seconds, avoiding contact with your eyes.
3. 3Add a small amount of water and continue massaging to emulsify the oil, meaning mix it with water so it can rinse away.
4. 4Rinse with warm water. Purito's detailed directions say to follow with a foaming cleanser.

Do you need an oil, or would cleansing water do?

Keep an oil format if your evening cleanse needs to remove mineral or water resistant sunscreen, long wear foundation or waterproof mascara. Anua positions Heartleaf Pore Cleansing Oil Mild for those heavier layers, while Heartleaf Low pH Deep Cleansing Water is intended for light, non waterproof sunscreen, skin tint and light makeup. Choose the format around your makeup and sunscreen, rather than asking a cotton pad to negotiate with waterproof mascara.2

For Anua Mild, apply the oil to dry skin, add water until it turns milky, then rinse thoroughly. If cleansing water leaves your face feeling coated, use an oil on those days instead of increasing wiping pressure. Dry or sensitive skin can use either format; oil offers more slip when stubborn residue would otherwise require repeated rubbing. Fragrance avoidance and removal strength are separate choices: a cleanser needs to meet both requirements to be a useful replacement.2

What should make you stop using Purito?

Stop using Purito if rash, redness or itching occurs. See a doctor if irritation persists. Purito directs you to avoid contact with the eyes, so do not transfer Anua's closed eye mascara removal technique to this bottle.15
