It did remove all the makeup that I wore after the party that I went to last week. I knew that it did since before, after washing my face, I would use a toner and the cottonball that I would use would still have some residual makeup that I wore that night. This time, the cottonball that I used didn't have any trace of my makeup at all. Plus, I noticed that in the next few days, I didn't have the usual whiteheads breakout and red flaking skin. And because I have combination skin, my cheeks usually get a little dry in the middle of the day, however this time with the Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil, I don't have that problem anymore. I totally love this product! I think I won't ever do without Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil. :)
My verdict: Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil is a great makeup remover/cleansing oil. Highly recommended!
