Makeup removal methods

[cosmo girl]

Baby wipes for sensitive skin. They even work on my eye make up.

I find those magic make-up cloths the best with just water. The microfibre or whatever ones. Primark do them for a few quid just as good at the £16 ones. Added bonus that they are more environmentally friendly, that’s very much secondary though.
I use at various times make-up wipes, garnier micellar, Superdrug’s cleanse and polish rip off, Estée Lauder cleanser in the pink tube all of which I’d say are good for cleansing, In combinations or on their own, it just depends what I can be bothered with or where I am.... but the cloths are the only things that I don’t get panda eyes the next day, just a cloth and warm water.

Yes, these work well! I was surprised.

I use Emma Hardie moringa cleansing balm, then take it off with a wet flannel or Muslim cloth, and it makes my skin glow! I always had terrible skin before I tried it. It also makes my skin so soft, and takes all the make up off. It can be ££ but I often find it cheaper in tkmaxx. I follow it up with the brilliance facial oil.

I use the ordinary squalane cleanser - rub it in for a while then use hot water and a flannel to get eye makeup off. Sometimes use micellar water afterwards to get the rest off. I hardly ever wear eye makeup but I think doing that every day would get a bit annoying.

Body shop chamomile butter/makeup remover stuff! Amazing! And I have quite greasy skin anyway but it doesn’t block my pores or make my skin feel greasy at all!

Make up wipe, then make up remover with Cotton pads. Very surprising how much comes off on the pads!

I only really wear make up at weekends and sometimes i get drunk and go to sleep and forget oops. If I remember I have a Caudalie cleanser or use micellar water. My skin is not too bad considering I sometimes forget, I don't really break out or have many lines but at 31 I should know better!

This is absolutely brilliant for getting off eye make-up. It's often half price in Superdrug or Boots and the 400ml bottles lasts forever.

The ysl eye makeup remover removes everything in one wipe it’s miracle stuff. Expensive but worth it.

I use Elemis micellar water then double cleanse with Elemis cleansing balm or cleansing oil.

What is everyone’s makeup removal method? Does anyone else find it impossible to get rid of all eye makeup?

I don’t know if I’m just super lazy and incompetent but when when I really try to remove it all (I do wear liquid eyeliner and mascara) I always end up with black panda eyes the next day

I actually find hot water removes it best. I wet my fingers and then rub it off my lashes. Then after, do a proper cleanse lol.

Hot cloth cleanser, I use the Aldi Liz Earle dupe ones. The Vitamin C one is my fave.

Followed by a facial oil, I like Sanctuary one or Boots Botanics one.

I use the garnier micellar cleansing water on my eyes and then cleanse again with the body shop cleanser (usually either tea tree foaming cleanser or seaweed cleanser). The micellar water gets the majority of the eye makeup off but the other cleansers definitely do give a deeper clean to remove any leftover

 

[Hello Kitty]

I use make up wipes. I used to love Tesco own brand but they aren't as good anymore so I've started using Primark face wipes, the pink pack or Simple/Dove when I can find them. I use micellar water every other day and then moisturise my face once all the made up is off. I've never had any trouble taking my eye make up off.

 

[ChloChlo]

I use the superdrug foaming tea tree cleanser is extremely good at removing make up.

If it is stubborn make up I will use an oil. Any oil will do, bio oil, etc.

 

[HowlOwl]

Completely lazy and use whatever facial wipes are on offer at the moment. However the very cheap ones drag across your skin as they’re too watery so I try to see what’s on offer for a reasonable quality.

At one time I would use the whole range of say Clinique or Clarins cleanser/toner/moisturiser, an expensive faff.
