Immediately recognisable from the chicest #shelfies and most discerning skin care edits, VOTARY was born to be a Cult classic. Created by British make up artist Arabella Preston, the brand’s luxurious products harness the power of premium plant oils, which deliver incredibly soothing, age-defying benefits without sitting on the surface of your skin (as creams and man-made mineral oils can). Clean as well as green, VOTARY is sustainably packaged and the formulations are blended (by Arabella personally) in the UK.
Perfect for oily, blemish-prone skin, this cleanser is made from 100% natural plant oils. A joy to use, it stars lightweight and non-clogging rice bran oil to gently exfoliate, plus rosemary to deeply cleanse and lift impurities. The result? Your skin won’t be triggered into producing more sebum (and starting the whole congested, sore cycle all over again) and instead, will feel clean, calm and healthy.
Encouraging you to resist the temptation to ‘dry the zit out of your skin’ with traditional spot-fighting formulas, VOTARY's Clarifying Cleansing Oil – Rosemary and Oat (and full size 100% cotton Face Cloth) is the first step to clearing and coaxing disruptive complexions to quell their rebellions. How, you might well ask? An extremely lightweight, non-clogging rice bran oil gently exfoliates skin while rosemary and bergamot deep cleanses, lifting and removing impurities, leaving pores clear. The addition of oat oil gently soothes redness and irritation, then peach and jojoba helps aid healing. Instead of finishing your routine with tight and dry skin which triggers the production of sebum, this cleanse leaves it feeling 'in sync'.

Put 4 to 5 pumps of oil into the palm of your hand. Spread between your palms and then apply to your face. Start with your cheeks, then your nose, mouth and jawline and finally the area around your eyes. Splash your face with warm water and continue to massage the oil into your face and eyelashes. Now here’s the absolutely crucial part. Take a clean flannel. Soak it in hand-hot water, wring it out, and put it over your face. Breathe in and allow the steam to penetrate your pores. Then, gently wipe everything away. Repeat if necessary. To finish, splash your face with warm water and pat dry with a clean towel.

Gorgeous face cleanser
This is such an experience to use, make sure you follow the instructions. I use this as a first cleanser and take the time to really give my face a nice massage - either with hands or my gua sha. The hot steamy towel on your face really awakens the scent of the essential oils and makes it feel like a spa experience. I have oily skin and this has improved my skin!

Smells nice
I love votary products and this Smells nice but didn’t massively help my spots. Prefer the super seed one.

A little too thick for my skin
Great to take make up off but I found myself needing a second cleanse.

Great for teenagers
Bought this for my teen daughter. She wears sunscreen during the day and this Votary oil is part of her first cleanse. She enjoys the ritual of using a hot cloth to remove the oil. Second cleanse is a mild CeraVe cleanser. The oil doesn’t emulsify. You need a flannel to wipe off, rinse and repeat until oil is fully removed. Non-drying. Excellent!

Just fabulous
I got a sample size of this in an advent calendar 3 years ago and have moved all my skin care to Votary products now. I just love this cleansing oil. Don't think that a cleansing oil will leave you feeling greasy - it really doesn't at all. It does just leave your skin clean, fresh and soft. You get a face cloth with each cleanser and they are great quality too. I used to suffer from minor breakouts and have to be careful with my skincare but Votary is amazing.

AMAZING!
I’ve had serious acne for years — like, since I was 16 — so I’m super fussy about what I put on my skin. This cleanser is simply AMAZING. I recommend it to everyone. It’s the 100% best at getting rid of make up (even waterproof stuff) and it’s so soothing/hydrating. It feels super luxurious too and is best removed with a flannel. LOVEEEE

In love
I’ve never had what I would class as acne, however, I’ve always had blemish-prone skin with very visible pores and a very oily complexion. I’ve had this oil for just under a week and I know things can change but so far I’m in love with it. Like other people have said it doesn’t emulsify with water but that’s exactly why they supply the face cloth and its part of the routine. I follow the instructions to the tee and it’s like have a spa treatment in my shower morning and night. I invested in some good quality face clothes like the one Votary provide and I change it every day, I’ve also got a few hand towels just for drying my face that my boyfriend is under strict instructions to keep his paws off, marked improvement in my skin all around, it’s so much more moisturised (but in a good way - it took my far too many years to figure out moisturiser is GOOD for oily skin) and smooth, tighter pores, better tone. Just love it. Expensive but not disappointed will definitely be trying more in this range.

Too heavy
I bought this after reading amazing reviews. After the first use I thought I was in love but after a week or so I realised it was way too heavy on my skin. I have very oily skin with regular breakouts and this cleanser didn’t fit. All other oil cleansers I’ve used have emulsified after I’ve splashed with water, but this one just stays stuck to your face until you physically remove it with a wet flannel. Probably perfect for someone with a more dry skin but just not for me!

Smells great, but...
This cleansing oil smells so good. Used first thing in the morning, it's sure to wake you up with its extremely refreshing scent. Used at night, it's great for removing makeup and sunscreen. The oil is also very light in the texture. However, unlike other cleansing oil products, it doesn't emulsify upon contact with water, so if that's what you're looking for, this product isn't for you. I have oily, acne-prone skin, and unfortunately, I noticed more spots after I switched to using this oil cleanser. Perhaps it was just a bad time or reaction to other products in my routine.

great cleanser
The first time I have tried an oil cleanser and I love it! My skin is prone to breakouts and I have avoided anything like this in the past, but this oil has changed my mind! Leaves pore less visible and skin super soft. No oiliness at all. Would highly recommend it.
