Skin type and preference matter.
Linoleic acid is thinner than oleic acid. Whereas Oleic acid is thicker and richer.
I myself have oily and acne skin and I prefer oils that contain Linoleic acid more than oleic acid.
I prefer to use oil if I am not travelling and a balm when I go travelling.

I see! I can understand that lighter oils is easier to wash off and manage. I have seen the elf product mentioned a few times. Do you like the product?

Honestly speaking, I havenβt tried the Elf one lol but I have tried other balms that did not work well with my skin. The elf balm was recommended by my facebook group called Skincare Fanatics because it is affordable and it is found in drugstores and it worked for them but I have to try it for myself then. π

I have dry sensitive acne prone skin. The Face Shop cleansing oils definitely clogged my pores and made me break out significantly. I personally prefer using cleansing balms because I find them more gentle on the skin and I don't like the oily feeling that some oil cleansers leave behind on the skin which can potentially clog pores.
I highly recommend the Banila Co cleansing balms! It washes off my makeup and sunscreen really well without being stripping. No weird residue too.

I didn't like any kind of micellar water. I have combination skin, but I like oils more. Some oil-based cleansers are especially suitable for oily skin. I still prefer the ones that don't dry.
celimax is very suitable for oily skins.

I have seen Celimax mentionee a lot recently. It does say Jojoba tho so I'm scared it might clog my pores π
Is it specifically for blackheads?

On the contrary, I can say that it does not clog the pores and helps to remove blackheads. But it dries out my skin a bit. π€·πΌ
