Mineral oil:

No polar oil, mild texture, the highest purity of mineral oil is generally used as baby skin care oil, but also as wound, eye ointment dressing. Because there is no polarity, the ability to dissolve makeup is weak. The higher the purity of mineral oil, the safer the skin.

Suitable for skin: sensitive skin, not strong makeup, or very mindful of mild makeup oil MM.

Vegetable oil:

Suitable for skin: sensitive skin, weak makeup, or plant-controlled M M.

Synthetic esters:

Generally, synthetic esters (IPM isopropyl tetradecanoate, IPP isopropyl hexadecanoate) with polarity and low molecular weight are used in cosmetic oil. The synthetic ester has high polarity and strong solubility and permeability to dirt, so it has the best cosmetic removing effect. But because of the small molecule, there is a relative risk of skin allergy caused by infiltration. It is recommended to use this kind of makeup remover oil. Don't spend too long on your face. Rinse it as soon as possible.

How to distinguish: Remove makeup quickly and cleanly.

Suitable for skin: Frequently make-up or waterproof makeup, blackhead acne more, nose always wash dirty people.
