Makeup Remover Buying Guide

Overview

Getting rid of make-up at the end of the day is very important. When the make-up and dirt stay on your skin for longer than necessary, it could result in pimples are break-outs.

To know remover will work best for you, we have jotted down different makeup removers for you.

Micellar Water/Cleansing Waters

This is a great option for sensitive skin and removes basic makeup gently. It is basically a soap-free micellar water that holds and traps oil, dirt, and makeup from your face and eyes and it doesn’t cause drying of skin, instead, soothes, softens and moisturizes the skin. The makeup easily clings to the formula. We suggest you use eye makeup remover after this if you are wearing long-stay eyeliner or waterproof mascara.

Cleansing Oils

The cleansing oil is perfect for the dry and dehydrated skin as it maintains the balance of your skin’s natural sebum production. It quickly removes all types of makeup, including waterproof cosmetics, giving extremely clean, clear and hydrated skin. Cleansing oil when mixed with water transforms into a milky emulsion. It is suitable for normal, combination and oily skin types as it is comfortable and gentle on your skin.

Oil-based Makeup Removers

They are liquid oil-based makeup remover with a standard formula that removes makeup in one swipe. Totally botanically formulated and are completely free of mineral oil. Massaging this face on the face loosens up the makeup, including waterproof mascara and on contact with water it emulsifies. Unlike cleansing oils, this contains water-based ingredients and so there is no oil residue on the skin.

Makeup Wipes

Makeup wipes are wet wipes/ tissues doused with cleaning milk or oil. They consist of oil-dissolvers that unclog pores from impurities and leave you skin cleansed. The downside is that they are slightly expensive and need to be restocked often.

Eye Makeup Removers

The area or skin around is more sensitive than the rest of the face. That’s why you should always opt for a separate eye makeup remover. They are excellent for those who wear lenses and have delicate eyes. Efficiently removes waterproof mascaras and consists of lash-strengthening ingredients that take care of your eyelashes.
