Dampen hands and pump 2-3 (perfect for mornings) or 4-5 (perfect for evenings and a face full of make up) drops of oil into the palm of your hand. Spread between your palms and apply to your face. Start with your cheeks, nose, mouth and jawline before the eye area. 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 VOTARY flannel and 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.

Beautiful cleanser
I have balm and oil cleansers galore, but I am always on the hunt for something new that might take a prime spot on my shelfie. This removes makeup beautifully, smells divine (coming from someone who doesn't normally love rose), and leaves my skin feeling so soft and nourished. I do prefer an oily cleanser to emulsify a little more on contact with water, so I always make sure to follow this with a second cleanser as my combo skin does still feel a little residue. That being said, I think a dry skin type would adore this and would find that more of comforting hydration than a film on the skin.

Not my favourite from their range
I am obsessed with their Super Seed Cleansing Oil so I was expecting to love this one just as much. Sadly this didn't work for me just because I'm really not a fan of Chamomile so I didn't enjoy the sensorial experience. Being quite sensitive to scents I cannot use a product no matter how good it is if it has a fragrance that I dislike. If you do enjoy that type of scent, absolutely go for it because the ingredient list and the quality of the oils are insanely good and it removes makeup really well!

Votary cleanser
This cleanser feels nice on the skin, removes makeup well but this oil itself does not emulsify into a milk when water is added.... it leaves an oily film on the skin so I would recommend this cleanser as a first cleanse.

Just stunning
Before using this, I was never loyal to any particular 1st cleanse. I'd tried a fair few but never put much thought into it as it was simply to remove make up. On a whim, I decided to try this. I'd read the reviews - it sounded amazing, but I just didn't think I'd be blown away by a cleanser. Well, long story short, I was. In terms of removing make up - it does that and it does it effortlessly. Massaging this into the skin feels so luxurious and calming. It doesn't leave a horrid oily residue on the skin yet your face feels soft, cleansed and nourished. The scent is uplifting and fresh without being too natural/herby and potent. I actually enjoy removing my make up now! Is that weird...? Also, since I've been using this my skin has been looking really radiant - and I haven't changed anything else up in my routine! It also comes with a cloth, which is excellent at gently exfoliating the skin and is fantastic quality (compared to others I've tried). So naturally, I went on to purchase the five-pack (one for each day of the week). Finally, if that wasn't enough, it's vegan and cruelty free. Plus, the packaging is just beautiful. All round goodness from Votary.

Super hydrating
This makes my skin feel so soft and smooth!! Especially in this heatwave. I experimented using it a few ways, and the best for me is to double cleanse - I put 5 drops on dry (made up) skin to remove my eyeliner etc using a face massage technique, then wet my palms for the 2nd time. I end with my usually face wash. I would not recommend using it on its own because it made me break out a little on my cheeks.

Lovely product
I am always hesitant to try new beauty products but I read reviews and looked into votary ingredients and the founders background before purchasing. This is really lovely product, It’s evened out my skin texture and I feel more glowing during the day. I’ve also noticed Pores starting to reduce (I also use retinol). I have combination skin. Will definitely be trying more of their products and would recommend.

Gorgeous
My daughter bought me this for Mother's Day and WOW! Cleansers - and particularly balms and oils - are my favourite type of product. I've tried loads but this is on another level. I only needed 2 pumps to thoroughly cleanse my face and neck. It smells divine. Uplifting and relaxing at the same time. My skin feels so soft tonight. Although I'm sure this would remove makeup efficiently, I will use it either as a morning cleanse or in the evening as a second cleanse after a balm or gel to remove makeup - I wouldn't want to use another cleanser after this and risk losing the dual benefits of aromatic and moisturising oils. I'll definitely buy some for myself once this runs out - or request it as a present on another occasion.

The best cleanser I’ve ever used
I love this product, I've been using it for around 6 weeks now and my skin is clear and bright. My skin feels so soft and appears much younger than my 48 years! The smell is divine and I now look forward to cleaning my face at night. I’d definitely recommend this to everyone and I won’t use anything else to take off my make up from now on.

Great cleanser
It is the first oil cleanser I have ever used. At the beginning I was not really convinced as I thought an oil is not the best way to clean your face. I got it as a gift and I must admit that it is really amazing. It makes my skin really soft and a face cloth included in the pack removes the oil well. I like the smell too, natural and really soothing. Definitely recommended!
