Detox Cleansing Oil FAQs

Can I use Detox Cleansing Oil alone if I don’t double cleanse?

Yes, but it’s most effective as the first step of your double-cleanse routine. This first step dissolves makeup, SPF, and impurities while helping purify and balance congested or oily skin.

Will it remove makeup?

Yes, it breaks down long-wear formulas with ease.

Does it leave a greasy residue?

No. It rinses clean like a gel and leaves skin feeling soft, balanced, and refreshed.

Can I use it daily?

Yes, it is gentle enough for everyday cleansing.

Should I oil cleanse in the morning or at night? 

Oil cleansing can be done in the morning and/or at night. Some skin types, especially oily or congested skin, may benefit from a gentle oil cleanse in the morning to help remove overnight sebum buildup.

That said, oil cleansing is generally best recommended at night, as it’s most effective at breaking down sunscreen, makeup, excess oil, and pollution that accumulate on the skin’s surface throughout the day.

Often as the first step of a double cleanse, it helps ensure skin is thoroughly cleansed for the next steps in your ritual.

Why should I not rinse it off if I double cleanse?

This reflects Dr. Laszlo’s classic double-cleanse ritual, where both steps, the Cleansing Oil and Cleansing Bar, blend on the skin to act like a cleansing mask for deeper purification.

Can I mix and match Erno Laszlo Cleansing Bars for my Double Cleanse?

Yes! You can use Sea Mud Deep Cleansing Bar or Phelityl® Cleansing Bar to target your skin’s unique needs. Pairing them allows you to customize your cleanse—whether you want extra hydration or deep purification—while still following Dr. Laszlo’s signature double-cleanse ritual.

What makes Detox Cleansing Oil different from Phelityl® Cleansing Oil?

Detox Cleansing Oil targets excess oil and refines pores, while Phelityl® Cleansing Oil focuses on moisture replenishment and barrier support.
