Why it's great: While some readers admit they were reluctant to try an oil cleanser made with olive oil, their fears were put to rest when this "removed everything, including sunscreen, lip stain and mascara." One reader says the product "cleans deeply, and completely removes makeup. Skin feels soft and clean without an oily residue because it's water-soluble.
