Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Oil Makeup Remover — 6.7 fl oz, Fragrance-Free Gentle Cleanse

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Oil is an easy-rinse, oil-based makeup remover that dissolves face makeup, sunscreen, excess oil, and surface impurities without leaving a residue.

This lightweight cleansing oil from Clinique is formulated to glide over skin and melt away stubborn makeup and daily sunscreen build-up, then rinse away cleanly with water. Designed to be suitable for all skin types, it offers a gentle yet effective way to remove the day’s products and grime while maintaining skin comfort. The formula is fragrance-free, allergy-tested, and ophthalmologist-tested, reflecting Clinique’s dermatological approach to safe, everyday cleansing.

How does this oil remove long-wear makeup and sunscreen?

The oil formulation is designed to bind with oily substances like long-wear makeup and sunscreen so they lift from the skin surface. When massaged over dry skin, the oil breaks down pigments and filters, then emulsifies during rinsing so everything washes away without heavy residue.

• Oil-based formula dissolves oil-soluble cosmetics and SPF easily.
• Massaging action helps lift pigments and impurities from pores.
• Emulsifies with water for a clean rinse-off that doesn’t feel greasy.

Will it work for sensitive or eye-area skin?

Clinique’s cleansing oil is formulated without fragrance and has undergone allergy and ophthalmologist testing to reduce irritation risk. Its gentle glide and rinse-off performance make it appropriate for removing eye makeup, though avoiding direct rubbing on the lash line minimizes tugging.

• Fragrance-free to lower irritation potential.
• Ophthalmologist tested for safe eye-area use when applied gently.
• Allergy tested and aimed at broad skin-type compatibility.

How do you use the cleansing oil for best results?

Apply a small amount to dry skin and massage thoroughly to dissolve makeup and grime; then add water to emulsify and rinse off completely. For stubborn makeup, repeat as needed or follow with a second cleanser if you prefer a foam finish.

• Start with dry hands and dry face for optimal makeup breakdown.
• Add water after massaging to turn the oil milky and rinse clean.
• Pair with a gentle cleanser afterward if you follow a double-cleanse routine.

How does this fit into a daily skincare routine?

Use the cleansing oil as the first step to remove makeup and surface oils at night, or as a quick makeup remover in the evening. It supports a clean base for serums and moisturizers by clearing away residue that can block product absorption.

• Ideal as the first cleanse in evening double-cleansing routines.
• Prepares skin for treatments by removing barriers like sunscreen and makeup.
• Suitable for use several times per week or nightly, depending on product wear and personal preference.

Who is this for: Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Oil is intended for anyone who wants an effective, easy-rinse solution for removing makeup, sunscreen, and surface oil—especially those who prefer oil-based removers that rinse clean.
