Bank Breaker?
Yep. I paid $40 + for the 150ml bottle. Bank breaker, indeed-y.
How to Use
- With dry hands, massage the cleansing oil all over your face. I like to apply to my eye area first and let it settle as I work on other parts of my face; this makes removing eye makeup such a breeze.
- Then apply a little bit of tepid water all over your face and work it in — this will result in the emulsification of the oil which turns the product milky.
- Rinse with tepid water and pat your face dry.
In Two Words
HOT STUFF!
What’s Good
Containing camellia oil, ginger root extract, depsea water (depsea is water from the deep sea… why couldn’t they just refer to it as deep sea water??), and advanced hpo system, High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil is a reformulation of the original cleansing oil and it is strong enough to melt off even the most stubborn waterproof makeup. Can you say HALLE-freaking-LUJAH? The price is steep, but I consider the payoff more than worth it. Besides, one pump is enough to cover the entire surface area of my face, so this smaller bottle will last me months! This stuff is like liquid gold!

Sounds like a wonderful product! Deepsea water sounds so funny =)

Haha I know, right?! But it is such an amazing product. I feel so lost and heartbroken whenever I run out of it.
Mary this product sounds too good to be true. You know me I’m more crazy about face care routine products then I’m about pink color. I really give a big importance to good products that will help my skin face. Unfortunately I don’t have this brand available here. I would have to look it up on Ebay.

You are I are exactly on THE same wavelength — the value of great skin far outweighs that of any makeup technique. Better to prevent than reverse later on down the road, right?! And what I absolutely love about cleansing oil is that it takes off ALL of my makeup without stripping my skin of natural oils unnecessarily. And glad the review helped. Good luck with the search. I think you’ll really like this. And check out their website to see which one suits your needs most.
I just checked out their site and seems that High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil Fresh would be suitable for my oily type of skin. I only need to find it on internet now, someone that ships to my country. No luck yet.

Seriously? That sucks.. I checked out their official website and they ship only to Belgium, Holland, Greece, Italy, France, and the UK, but I’m guessing you’re not from any of the listed? I love the HPBCO.. used to use their Anti-Oxidant Cleansing oil, but that’s a bit heavier — very ideal for the drier winter months.
I second that
