Is that right? Why would cleaning with oil give anyone the skin of their dreams? What happened to soap and water? Soap and Water is the conventional facial cleansing method. 
The Oil Cleansing Method’s (OCM) principle is “like dissolves like” and it works in a way to reach deeper down into the pores where soap and water can not. If you wear makeup everyday, your skin will become dry, which will cause your skin to compensate for the dryness by producing excess oil. This accumulation of excess oil that your skin produces leads to blackheads, whiteheads and acne.
The concept is that the external application of oil will seep into your pores and will prevent your skin from naturally producing excess oil (called Sebum) which leads to issues with the skin.Your pores will replace dirty oil with “good for you” oil, which not only sufficiently hydrates the skin, it also enhances the health of the skin. OCM helps the skin’s ability to regulate moisture, by pulling out the moisture in the pores, rinsing it away, and leaving pores totally open.

Clean Washcloths
HOW TO USE THE OIL CLEANSER
Immerse your washcloth in hot water – the highest heat you find you’re comfortable with on your face and hands-you want to generate a good amount of steam without scalding your skin
Place the Hot/Wet washcloth on your face and leave it on for 30 seconds
Remove the washcloth and pour one or two teaspoons of the oil cleanser into the palm of your hand
Gently massage the cleanser into your face, in circular motions, for about 2 minutes for the best results
Allow the cleanser to sit for 30 seconds
Wet washcloth again with hot water, and put it on the face for ten to thirty seconds
Rinse with the washcloth again, in hot water, and use it to gently rub the oil off of the skin…..repeat at least 3 times to make sure all of the oil has been removed
Follow with your skincare routine, and a moisturizer
To Make a Homemade Oil Cleanser :
Castor Oil – is the key ingredient
Castor Oil is thick, viscous, and highly comedogenic (sits on top of pores) potentially clogging them up! 
I KNOW THIS DOESN’T SOUND SO GREAT, BUT, REMEMBER – THE PURPOSE OF THE OIL CLEANSER IS TO BOND WITH THE OIL THAT IS ALREADY IN YOUR SKIN, AND PULL IT AWAY FROM YOUR SKIN! AFTER RINSING, YOUR PORES SHOULD BE TOTALLY CLEAR OF ALL CLEANSING OILS AND EXCESS SEBUM OILS THAT WERE BUILDING UP IN YOUR PORES!
You need to combine the Castor Oil with a more conditioning Carrier Oil.
Jojoba, Camillia, Rose Hip Seed Oils are some good choices. There are different oils for different issues. If you want to soothe your skin you can use Argan Oil, or Passionfruit Oil. If you have ore mature skin, you should use antioxidant rich oils, such as Rose Hip, Evening Primrose, or Pomegranite Seed Oil. For Oily, Acne Prone Skin use Perilla Seed , Karanja, or Sacha Inchi Oil.
Make sure you use the HIGHEST QUALITY Carrier Oils for your Oil Cleanser. Overly Processed cooking oils will clog your pores!!!
