How to remove makeup with cotton pads? What is the difference between makeup remover and makeup remover oil?

Today we will mainly talk about how to distinguish and use makeup removers from makeup removers and makeup removers oil. Makeup removers oil is for people who are used to wearing makeup or like to wear heavy makeup. If it is bridal makeup, stage makeup, etc., of course, makeup removers oil must be used to completely remove it; but for the light makeup we wear on a daily basis (that is, not waterproof, long-lasting makeup and too many colors), makeup removers water is enough. You can also use makeup removers oil locally, such as using a cotton swab dipped in makeup removers oil to remove mascara and long-lasting lipstick, and then use makeup removers water to clean the whole face. Compared with other products, most of the water in makeup removers can also ensure the moisture content of the skin, making the skin refreshed and tender.

Can I not wash my face after using makeup remover?

No. Although makeup remover can help people remove makeup from their faces and protect the skin to a certain extent, it is also a type of cosmetic and contains a certain amount of chemical ingredients. If you do not wash it off after removing makeup, it is easy to irritate the skin and cause damage to it. Generally, after removing makeup with makeup remover, you not only need to wash your face, but also use facial cleanser for secondary cleansing to ensure that the makeup and makeup remover on your face do not remain on your skin.

How to remove makeup with cotton pads

First of all, you need to clarify the order in which you should use makeup remover to remove makeup, which is eye makeup, lip makeup, face and blind spots.

1. While ensuring your hands and face are dry, pour an appropriate amount of makeup remover on the cotton pad and wet the entire cotton pad.

2. Press the cotton pad on your eyes and wait for 5-8 seconds before removing it. At this time, most of the eye makeup has been dissolved. Then use the cotton pad to gently wipe the eye skin until the eye makeup is completely removed.

3. Take a new cotton pad, wet it with makeup remover, press it on your lips, wait for about 30 seconds, and then use the cotton pad to wipe from the corner of the mouth to the center of the lips until the lip makeup is completely removed.

4. Take a new cotton pad, wet it with makeup remover, and slowly wipe it from the center of the nose to the surrounding areas. Use 2-3 cotton pads continuously until the facial makeup is completely removed.

5. Finally, don’t forget to remove makeup in some blind spots, such as the hairline, nose wings, chin, neck, etc.

The difference between makeup remover and makeup remover oil

Makeup remover oil: Makeup remover oil is designed on the principle of "oil dissolving oil". The makeup remover oil with emulsifier oil can easily blend with the makeup oil on the face, and then dissolve the makeup thoroughly by emulsifying it with water, reducing the tension with the skin, allowing it to naturally fall off and "float" to the surface. When it meets water, the dirt is "pulled" away with the water. Even heavy makeup, such as powder sticks with strong concealing power and high oil content, foundation cream, oily eye shadow, blush, etc., can be easily removed. The current makeup remover oil has broken through the previous mineral oil ingredients. The plant-based texture can completely remove residual makeup, which is safe and non-irritating. However, it should be noted that after using makeup remover oil, it is best to wash it again with a facial cleanser to ensure thorough cleaning.

Makeup remover: The so-called "makeup remover" does not mean that all its ingredients are water molecules. In fact, makeup remover combines the non-water-soluble ingredients in the product with the dirt on the skin to achieve the purpose of quick makeup removal. Compared with other products, most of the water in makeup remover can also ensure the moisture content of the skin, making the skin refreshed and tender.

Makeup remover oil is suitable for people who have the habit of putting on full makeup every day and those who often wear heavy makeup. People with oily skin should use it less.

Makeup remover is suitable for people with sensitive skin, oily skin and combination skin.

The ingredients of makeup remover oil are generally vegetable oil and mineral oil. The main chemical structure of vegetable oil is "triglyceride"; mineral oil includes mineral oil, liquid paraffin, vaseline, paraffin, etc., which are inert oils, so they have no permeability to the skin. Mineral oil is a cheap makeup remover raw material.

The makeup removal power of makeup remover relies on small molecule glycerin, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, ethylene glycol, xylitol and other polyols to dissolve makeup. The concentration is approximately more than 20%. It contains no fragrance, no preservatives, and no surfactants.

Makeup remover water is the lightest and thinnest, suitable for removing makeup from thinner skin areas such as eyes and lips. Because some people use makeup remover oil to remove eye makeup, it is easy for it to get into the eyes, causing blurry vision and other uncomfortable symptoms. Makeup remover water is relatively less likely to have this problem, while makeup remover oil is more comfortable to use and removes more cleanly.

The difference between makeup remover oil and makeup remover water is that makeup remover oil is for people who are used to wearing makeup or heavy makeup. If it is bridal makeup, stage makeup, etc., of course, makeup remover oil must be used to completely remove it; but for the light makeup we wear on a daily basis (that is, not waterproof, long-lasting makeup and too many colors), makeup remover water is enough. You can also use makeup remover oil locally, such as using a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover oil to remove mascara and long-lasting lipstick, and then use makeup remover water to clean the whole face.

Notes on using makeup remover oil:

1. Be careful not to apply cleansing oil with wet palms, and emulsify before using cleansing oil.

2. Do not gently massage your face and rinse it off with water before the makeup remover oil fully dissolves the makeup.

3. If you wipe off the makeup remover oil directly with dry tissue without adding water to emulsify it, the effect will be compromised.
