Take the skin testExperience a deep yet gentle cleanse with Abib Pore Cleansing Oil Heartleaf Oil-Wash, a lightweight, silky cleansing oil that removes makeup, excess sebum, and impurities while soothing sensitive skin. Infused with heartleaf extract, this oil helps calm irritation and manage acne, making it perfect for all skin types. A blend of six plant-based oils, including jojoba, avocado, and rice bran oil, nourishes and purifies pores while melting away blackheads and whiteheads upon contact with water. Its watery-oil formula emulsifies effortlessly, transforming into a milky texture for a non-greasy, refreshing finish.
Pore Cleansing Oil Heartleaf Oil-Wash is a rich oil cleanser from Abib, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 27 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as rich: occlusives and butters sit high enough in the order to give it real weight on skin. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Ethylhexylglycerin, Butylene Glycol and Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Ethylhexylglycerin, Butylene Glycol, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate and Triethylhexanoin.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Houttuynia Cordata Extract and Tocopherol.
On richness alone it suits Dry and Combination (dry) skin best, and is the least natural fit for Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on barrier support, antioxidant protection, oil control and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain essential oils, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes first step. Use on damp skin and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a toner or essence while skin is still slightly damp.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
