Best for: Pre-cleansing to remove make-up, impurities and excess surface oil while helping leave the skin feeling clean and moisturised without an oily residue.

What is Environ Skin EssentiA Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil?

Environ Skin EssentiA® Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil is a mild oil-based pre-cleanser designed as the first cleansing step in an Environ skincare routine.

It gently and effectively assists with removing excess surface oils, impurities and make-up before your main cleanser. When massaged onto the face and neck with wet hands, the oil transforms into a milky emulsion that rinses away easily without leaving an oily residue.

The formula helps prevent the stripping of natural oils from the skin's surface, supporting a moisturised and hydrated appearance. It also helps act as a solvent for excess sebum that may contribute to clogging, helping reduce signs of congestion.

What problem does it solve?

Make-up, impurities and excess surface oils can remain on the skin and need to be removed effectively before your main cleansing step.

Millies Expert Advice from Skincare Expert Edele:

Pre Cleanse Oil is the ideal way to begin an immaculate cleansing routine, add a few drops of oil directly to the skin and emulsify with water to create a beautiful milky formulation that removes makeup, spf, oil and impurities. Top tip: Put a small layer of pre-cleanse oil under a layer of Environ hydrating clay masque, massage with damp finger tips to create an exfoliation treatment.

Is Environ Skin EssentiA Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil right for me?

Choose this pre-cleanser if: you want an oil-based first cleansing step that helps remove make-up, impurities and excess surface oil without leaving an oily residue.

It may be particularly suitable if: excess sebum or signs of congestion are concerns, or you want a pre-cleanser that helps prevent the skin's natural surface oils from being stripped away during cleansing.

Follow Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil with your preferred Environ cleanser rather than using it as your only cleansing step.

Important – Pre-Cleanser vs Cleanser

Environ Dual Action Pre-Cleansing Oil is a pre-cleanser.

Its role is to help remove make-up, impurities and excess surface oils as the first stage of your cleansing routine. After rinsing it away, Environ recommends following with an Environ cleanser.

This makes it particularly useful as part of a double-cleansing routine rather than as a replacement for your main cleanser.
