Make-Up remover

Around 4 years ago, I have tried make up cleanser by St Ives and it was pretty okay, but still dependable on another cleanser to really wipe off the oiliness of the face. It was expensive (around RM20, if I remembered it correctly) so I took a long time to finish the tube. This was the phase when make up remover + cleanser wasn't in the trend.


I used the common Loreal make up remover for 3 years because I rarely used waterproof make up.


Biore, if I'm not mistaken, made a great entry for a cheap cleanser with make up remover somewhere last one and half years. With a little hope that this thing not gonna cause any break out on my skin, I had a small tube of it less than RM10. In my opinion after using it, it kind of hurts my eyes and the cleanser was really dry for my skin. I kept it in my office when I really need to use it.

A good friend of mine suggested me to get a water-based make up remover by Simple. It wasn't that expensive, less than RM20 for a decent bottle. It was really powerful and doesn't hurt my skin. The only fuss that I have is it will not work if you apply it using tissue. Yeap, strange as it sounds, it only works on cotton pad or something soft and thick. Else, you tend to rub rub rub till sore. 

What to do when you forgot that you're wearing a waterproof make up and you need to wipe it off to take an ablution? That was the moment when I started to use Biore Make Up Remover wipes. Less than RM8, I purchased Biore brand somewhere end of last year. It is sure a fast way to remove make up but it wasn't totally gentle to my eyes and my skin. So I didn't finish it, ended up somewhere I couldn't find it anymore.

Again, I sticked to Simple Water-Based Make up Remover in my bag whenever I put on make-ups. 

I have forgotten when, but I did receive a sample of make-up remover wipes somewhere mid year. Free stuff, who doesn't want it, right? Since that moment wasn't my first time of trying wipes for make-up remover, I didn't expect much. 

Guess what, it was totally unexpected. So gentle, so smooth on skin and so powerful. I purchased it (the wipes in purple packaging) a week after the trial as I received a coupon in the free sample pack. Til today, I still use it but sometimes I cut it to smaller pieces because sometimes I need to wipe small areas only. 

I want to purchase it again when I finished it up because it was totally worth the ease. I tested to wipe my face before sleeping, and there's no breakouts in the morning. I'm not sure whether it is only being nice to my skin, but maybe you can try.
