Principia OL-01 Makeup Removing Cleansing Oil with Sunflower Oil 30% + Vitamin E 1%, 6.76 fl oz (200 mL)
Principia OL-01 is a Brazilian dermocosmetics cleansing oil designed for an elevated first cleanse—silky, effective, and remarkably comfortable. Formulated with 30% sunflower seed oil, a 15% surfactant blend, and 1% vitamin E, it dissolves makeup (including water-resistant formulas), sunscreen residue, and daily impurities, leaving skin feeling soft and refreshed rather than stripped.
The texture rinses cleanly, making it an elegant choice for modern routines, beauty professionals, and international resellers who want a high-performance cleansing step with a minimalist, ingredient-forward story.

Ingredients Highlights
- Sunflower Seed Oil (30%): A plant-derived oil rich in essential fatty acids, including omega-6 and omega-9. Acts as an emollient that helps reduce moisture loss, supports long-lasting hydration, and helps strengthen the look of the skin barrier while offering antioxidant support against free-radical stress.
- Vitamin E (1%): An antioxidant naturally found in foods like nuts, spinach, and olive oil. In skincare, vitamin E helps neutralize free radicals and is associated with photoprotective support—helping reduce the visible effects of sun-related stress when paired with daily sunscreen.
-
Cleansing Surfactants (15% blend): Ingredients designed to emulsify oils, makeup, and debris so they can be rinsed away easily with water. Surfactants may be cationic, anionic, non-ionic, or amphoteric depending on the ions they form in aqueous solutions—supporting both cleansing performance and a comfortable skin feel.
