question Cleansing oil not removing sunscreen?
Hello, I use a diy oil mixture of 75% mineral oil (light liquid paraffin) and 25% peg-40 by weight. Its supposed to remove sunscreen but for some reason there's always a lot of it left, even though I only apply sunscreen once a day.
The sunscreen I use is reequil ultra matte dry touch sunscreen. Its supposed to be waterproof and for oily skin, and is sort of the only sunscreen which suits me.
Should I use some sort of ester in my oil? Or just change both altogether?
