CLARINS PURE MELT CLEANSING GEL Macy’s $30

Cleansing oils have been all the rage for the past few years now. While the idea of using oil to remove impurities from your face may seem counterintuitive, it actually works like a charm—proven by their increasing popularity. But what if you could have the power of an oil combined with the refreshing feel of a gel plus the soothing factor of a milky cleanser?

You can with Clarins’ new Pure Melt Cleansing Gel. It starts as a gel and then transforms into an oil that melts into your skin, removing makeup and impurities. Once you rinse it becomes a cleansing milk, leaving your face super-soft and super-clean. You get three cleansers in one, plus fabulously clean skin.
