Origins Checks and Balances

I have used Origins Zero Oil for several years. This particular product is new to me. All Origin products are top quality.

Origins Checks and Balances Milky Oil Cleanser

I have been using Zero Oil for several years. It seems that Origins has expanded this line of products. I just ordered this. I have not picked product up yet. I have always been pleased with Origins. I look forward to using Checks and Balances.

Great Cleanser

I really like this cleanser. It gently cleans my dry skin. I like all the quality Origins products for the dry Rocky Mountain air.

Nothing Origins about it

Should have read the reviews but I have been a long time fan of Origins since it first opened. This product does not meet up to its claim, does not remove waterproof makeup or mascara. No Checks and Balances scent…thought I purchased a defective bottle.

Changed

For years I used Origins Clean Energy cleansing oil and I LOVED it. Gently removed make up and left my skin super smooth and hydrated. No idea why they stopped making it. Check and Balances is useless. I now use Super Facialist Vitamin C Cleansing Oil which is similar to your Clean Energy. Almost as good and a fraction of the price!

Very disappointing

Very expensive and didn't remove all the make up. I wouldn't buy it again.
