Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleansing Oil: the gentle makeup remover oil for sensitive skin
Does your skin feel tight after removing your makeup? Does it feel like your cleanser is stripping it? The Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleansing Oil is designed for you: a lightweight oil that removes everything without compromising your skin's comfort. Here's how to use it properly.
What is the Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleansing Oil used for?
It is a makeup remover oil, the first step in the Korean double cleansing method. It dissolves makeup, sunscreen, sebum, and impurities accumulated throughout the day that water and a foaming cleanser alone cannot completely remove.
What makes it special: it is formulated with mineral-rich deep seawater from Dokdo Island (Ulleungdo), the signature of Round Lab's 1025 Dokdo range. Its fluid texture emulsifies easily upon contact with water and rinses off without leaving a film. Your skin will feel clean, supple, and never dried out.
Key active ingredients
- Dokdo seawater: provides minerals and helps maintain skin hydration.
- Lightweight oils: capture makeup, SPF, and sebum without feeling greasy.
- Emulsifying texture: turns into a milk for easy rinsing.
Who is it for?
It is suitable for all skin types, and especially:
- sensitive skin that reacts to harsh makeup removers;
- normal to dry or dehydrated skin that easily feels tight;
- those starting double cleansing who want a simple and gentle oil;
- those who wear SPF every day.
If your skin is very oily with a lot of blackheads, the Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil may be more targeted. For sensitive or dry skin, Dokdo is an excellent choice.
When to use it?
In the evening, as the first step, on dry skin. This is when you need to remove the SPF and makeup from the day. In the morning, a gentle cleanser or even just rinsing with water is enough for dry skin.
How to use it?
- Apply 2 to 3 pumps to your dry face with dry hands.
- Gently massage for about 1 minute to dissolve makeup and SPF.
- Add a little warm water and continue massaging until the oil becomes milky.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Finish with a gentle cleanser to complete the double cleanse.
Clow's tip: the emulsification step is the most important. An oil that is not properly emulsified leaves a film; an oil that is properly transformed into a milk rinses off completely.
What to pair it with?
The most logical combination is its partner from the same range: the Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleanser, a gentle pH foam. To gently exfoliate once or twice a week, the 1025 Dokdo Peeling Gel perfectly completes the routine. Then, a hydrating toner like the Celimax Dual Barrier Creamy Toner for dry skin.
Frequently asked questions
Does it remove waterproof makeup?
Yes, it removes makeup and water-resistant SPF. For very stubborn mascara, leave it on your lashes for a few seconds before massaging.
Can it be used on oily skin?
Yes, a makeup remover oil is also suitable for oily skin as long as it is properly emulsified and followed by a foaming cleanser.
Is a second cleanser really necessary afterwards?
It is recommended: the oil removes oily impurities, the foaming cleanser eliminates remaining residue and prepares the skin for the next skincare steps.
