How do you remove makeup?

Poll posted by BR Natalie

Remember back in the days before you wore makeup, when a simple cleanser was enough to wash your face?  And then you discovered makeup.  And then scientists discovered ways to make your makeup 'stick' for longer.  And suddenly your humble cleanser wasn't enough.  You needed a separate product.  A makeup remover.

You can get 2-in-1 cleansers and makeup removers.  Liquid makeup removers.  Oils.  Balms.  Wipes.  Waters containing magical micellar particles.  Heck you can even get specially formulated eye makeup removers.  So much choice.  But is it too much choice?

Why go to the hassle (and expense) of purchasing and using a separate product, when you can go back to basics and just use water?  Colour you intrigued right?

Today's trial product isn't water.  Obviously.  No, no.  We're putting the Manicare Makeup Removing Towel to the test.  This nifty (and pink!) towel effectively removes stubborn make up with just water, leaving your skin feeling clean and fresh.  And the best part of it is - you can just throw it in the wash and reuse it, time and time again!

This Makeup Removing Towel is perfect for those who travel and don't want to risk spills in their bags, as well as those who just want a convenient way to remove makeup without buying extra products.  We also think it would be amazing for those of us with sensitive skin - no harsh products needed to remove your look, just good old H20.

So come on then, when it comes to removing your make up do you use a specific product? What format does it come in?  Do you prefer liquids, lotions, balms or oils?  Does your go to remove all of your makeup effortlessly, or is it still a bit of a scrub?

I'm a super lazy person! So when it comes to removing my makeup I just use a Johnson's cleansing wipe to move the majority of my makeup (guilty at scrubbing at my eyes to remove my waterproof mascara; it gets the majority of it off), then I go in with a second facial wipe by essano (The cute ones with the pink packaging) because I feel it leaves my face less oily afterwards and it removes the makeup which didn't come off with the first wipe. If I have extra time and feel like a wanna really pamper my skin I will properly cleanse my skin with the T-Zone skincare cleansing cream wash before I put on a spot treatment all over my acne spots where I feel is needed. If this makeup removing towel really works then it would save me a whole lot of money where i wouldn't need to purchase facial wipes as well as help save the environment a little by not having to throw away wipes. Very interesting indeed.

I just use good old pams cotton pads with micellar water, then a cleanser. seems to work a miracle and the cleanser removes anything the micellar water may have missed!

Would love to try this. I am all about quick and easy ways when it comes to removing my makeup. I am a face wipe user but I know they aren't great for my skin and don't actually remove all the make up properly which leads to blockages and pimples!!!!

I don't wear makeup often but when I do I use face wipes to get it all off. At least one maybe two. This is reusable which is awesome, I would love to try it!

Eek I use baby wipes... I know they're bad for my skin so would love to try this

I currently use micellar water and then a beauty balm in the shower to remove makeup. I've seen these special cloth/towels in stores and also youtubers using them but have been a bit skeptical. I would love to see it for myself to see if it really works that well!

I would love to trial this new make up remover for you. At the moment I use my chemist brought face wash. And this isn't good for eye make up. Would love to trial for you. Thank you.

I have sensitive skin so I hate having to use some sort of makeup remover. Unfortunately, mascara and eyeliner can't really be cleaned away without it! I like to use a cold cream most of the time because it keeps my skin hydrated but I feel a bit clogged after repeated use so I switch between makeup remover and cold cream. If I'm travelling I use makeup wipes so I don't have to worry about spillage. I travel quite a bit nowadays so I tend to stock up on wipes when they are on sale. They cost much more than makeup remover or cold cream! This makeup removing towel sounds ideal but only water? I would like to see whether it works.

At the moment im using an oil cleanser to remove my makeup though its nearly run out so will prob just go back to face wipes or a flannel with water....these sound so interesting, definitely keen to give it a go!

I'm terribly lazy when it comes to makeup removal, so this would be the perfect tool for me! I usually just use an every day cleanser, or a baby wipe if I'm feeling extra lazy.

WOW! if this works ill be over the moon, i spend a fortune in wipes and trying different eye make up removers but all seem to not quite work, my my how the world of make up removing is changing!!!

I'd love to try the Manicare Makeup Removing Towel. Really would like a more natural way to remove ma daily face...Usually I tend to use a gentle facial scrub to effectively remove all traces of my make-up in my nightly shower but wonder often if I am doing more harm than good in using a facial scrub regardless of how gentle all the time. I would be the perfect candidate to try the Makeup Removing Towel for this trial :)

I usually use wipes but this looks interesting

I would love to trial the Manicure Makeup removing towel. What a nice simple way of removing make up and an easy item to take away or use at home to do so. Minimal fuss. Would love trial it. Thx Pauline
