SK-II Facial Treatment Cleansing Oil — 8.4 oz Gentle Makeup-Removing Oil with PITERA™ for Smooth, Hydrated Skin

SK-II Facial Treatment Cleansing Oil is a gentle, makeup-melting cleansing oil formulated with PITERA™, wild rose, and apple seed extracts to dissolve sunscreen, waterproof makeup, and daily impurities while conditioning skin for a smoother, more even texture.

This lightweight facial oil transforms the routine of removing makeup and cleansing into a conditioning treatment. Designed to be used as the first step in a double-cleanse, it effortlessly lifts away heavy cosmetics and surface sebum without stripping moisture. The formula relies on SK-II’s proprietary PITERA™, plus botanical extracts, to help leave skin feeling soft and prepared for the next steps in your skincare regimen.

How does this cleansing oil remove stubborn makeup?

The oil-based formula breaks down oil-soluble products like waterproof mascara, long-wear foundation, and SPF. When you emulsify it with water, it turns milky and carries dissolved makeup and impurities away for an easier rinse.

• Dissolves waterproof makeup and heavy sunscreen
• Emulsifies with water for clean rinsing
• 3–4 pumps recommended to cover face and eye areas

What ingredients make it gentle yet effective?

SK-II combines PITERA™ — a nutrient-rich fermentation-derived ingredient — with wild rose and apple seed extracts for a balance of cleansing and conditioning. These components support surface hydration and help maintain skin’s natural feel after cleansing.

• PITERA™ supplies vitamins, amino acids, and minerals for skin nourishment
• Wild rose extract contributes brightening-supportive botanicals
• Apple seed extract helps condition skin and improve texture feel

How should I use the oil for best results?

Dispense 3–4 pumps into dry palms and glide across dry face to dissolve makeup and buildup. Massage gently, focusing where oil and debris collect; then emulsify by adding a little water, continue massaging, and rinse with lukewarm water.

• Apply to dry skin for effective breakdown of makeup and sebum
• Massage in circular motions, especially on nose and eye areas
• Add water to emulsify and rinse thoroughly before a second cleanser

Will it leave my skin feeling dry or greasy?

The formulation aims to remove impurities while preserving surface moisture so skin feels smooth, not tight or slick. Because it’s an oil cleanser intended as a first cleanse, follow with a water-based cleaner if you prefer a deeper fresh finish.

• Balances cleansing with conditioning ingredients
• Rinses to a comfortable, hydrated feel when used correctly
• Best paired with a gentle second cleanser for a complete double-cleanse

Who is this for: SK-II Facial Treatment Cleansing Oil suits anyone who uses long-wear makeup or daily SPF and wants a no-fuss, effective first cleanse that conditions skin. It’s helpful for people looking to improve surface texture and remove trapped sebum without over-drying. Ideal for use in evening routines or whenever you need to dissolve heavy products while prepping skin for serums and treatments.
