Erno Laszlo Detox Cleansing Oil

Cleanse and Condition
This oil gently cleanses, dissolving surface impurities without leaving skin feeling tight or dry. Infused with activated charcoal and nourishing Shea Butter, our innovative formula foams white as it purifies, providing a thorough cleanse for a fresh and conditioned complexion.

How it Works
Formulated for oily skin, this purifying detox oil gently cleanses and helps protect the complexion from environmental pollutants, without leaving the skin feeling tight or dry.


Color-Change Technology
The formula for this oil cleanser features Charcoal, which gives the oil its initial black color. When working the oil into your skin, you will see a change from black oil to a creamy-white, cleansing emulsion. This detox oil works best when paired with the cleansing bar of your choice, as part of Dr. Laszlo’s signature Double Cleanse Method.

Double Cleanse Method
When you use our cleansing oils with our cleansing bars, you get the perfect double cleanse. The nourishing oil grips excess skin surface oil, makeup, and other oily impurities without stripping your complexion of precious moisture. Next, the water-based bar removes any remaining residue, gently cleansing without drying.

While double cleansing has grown in popularity of late, Dr. Laszlo was the first to promote a two-step cleanse via oil and soap bar over 50 years ago. The Double Cleanse Method has been an Erno Laszlo signature offering ever since.

How to Use
Gently massage the oil cleanser in small circular motions on dry skin. Use the detox oil on its own to cleanse skin, or follow with the cleansing bar of your choice as part of your Double Cleanse Method (recommended). Rinse skin and pat dry. Use morning and night. Specially formulated for dull, congested skin in need of a deep-clean detox.

Color-Change Technology
The formula for our oil cleanser features Charcoal, which gives the detox oil its initial black color. Upon application, with the increased surface area available to absorb toxins, Charcoal’s detoxifying powers really go to work. Alongside Charcoal, the formula includes Polysorbate 20—a sugar that brings our Color-Change Technology to life. When this hydrophilic sugar molecule meets the oils on your face, a creamy-white, cleansing emulsion is created. This detox oil works best when paired with the cleansing bar of your choice, as part of Dr. Laszlo’s signature Double Cleanse Method.

Key Ingredients

Charcoal
Benefit: Purifying
Charcoal is known to detoxify by chemically binding to and absorbing impurities and oils from skin. When activated, its detoxifying power goes into hyper-drive as it dissolves makeup and oils on the skin's surface. Charcoal is a great way to detox oily skin.

Shea Butter Seedcake Extract
Benefit: Protecting + Soothing
Shea Butter Seedcake Extract is rich in gallic acid and epigallocatechin gallate, which both help remove toxic metals. This active helps protect against free radicals and certain chemical pollutants, including nicotine, chlorine, and heavy metals from urban pollution, while also soothing and improving the appearance of tired, dull skin.

Grape Seed Oil + Olive Oil + Jojoba Oil
Benefit: Nourishing
These botanical oils serve to nourish the skin. Grape Seed Oil is rich in anti-aging compounds, including essential fatty acids, polyphenols, beta-carotene, and vitamins D, C and E. Derived from European-grown olives, the Olive Oil in this formula has been filtered and highly refined to deliver nourishing benefits. Jojoba Oil, a polyunsaturated liquid wax similar to our own skin-protecting sebum, supports skin with high oxidative stability.

Spring Sea Water
Benefit: Moisturizing
This uniquely moisturizing water comes from Brittany, France. Being rich in minerals and trace elements, Spring Sea Water is a natural source of vitality.

Clean Formula
We’ve developed a strict set of clean standards and have been working over the last few years to eliminate 51 potentially-harmful ingredients from our existing formulas. The formula for our Detox Cleansing Oil meets the standards of our Clean Promise. It is formulated without phthalates, parabens, sulfates, mineral oil, or petrolatum.

Sustainable Packaging
In order to leave this planet in better shape than it was when we found it, we are also committing to sustainable packaging—less plastic, less waste. The bottle for our detoxifying oil for cleansing can be recycled if removed from the pump. The pump cannot be recycled due to its metal spring.
