Bioré Make Up - Remover Review: Make Up

Review: Bioré Cleansing Oil; The Good, Simple & Affordable Makeup Remover

The one makeup remover that I’ve gone through bottles and bottles 2 years ago is the Bioré Cleansing Oil. 2 years ago I hated cleansing oil. I never knew about cleansing milk before and cleansing oil is the only product that was introduced to me. I hated it for being oily and messy. I hated it for being such a troublesome to use. I hated it for leaving my face oily and yucky. Then I get to know about cleansing milk all thanks to Clarins and I was on the cleansing milk bandwagon till to date.

Last year I went for a budget shopping at Watsons for the blog. If you missed the post, click here. One of the item that I picked up is the Bioré Cleansing Oil. And of course I need to use all the products I bought so I did. Slowly. Earlier this month I took out the Bioré Cleansing Oil to use and it actually felt really good on my face. I tried to recall why I fell off the bandwagon and hated it because it was really good. My guess is I have no proper idea how to use the product.

So here I am; totally into cleansing oil. I reached for this or my Eve Lom Cleanser (also emulsify to oil) to remove my makeup leaving all my cleansing milk sitting at one corner. Awww I promise I’ll be back milky!

I like that the bottle pump is never faulty, it pumps sufficient product out and comes with a plastic stopper for travelling. The nozzle is slim and long which I appreciate very much. I hate hate hateeee short nozzle because that means my hands would need to be placed nearer to the bottle body and there’s a high possibility that I’ll splash some of the oil onto it. You know I’m a bit of a clean freak with my skin care right?

Clarins Make Up - Remover Review: Make Up

Review: Clarins Water Purify One-Step Cleanser with Mint Essential Water, Makeup Remover for the Lazy Days

I was thinking hard a few days ago on what Clarins review to write. I know I still owe a Double Serum review but I haven’t even started using it. Oppss, my bad! That day was a weekend and I went out with the family to various car showroom to test some cars. So I had foundation, powder, blusher and lipstick on. By the time I reached home I was feeling lazy to remove everything off properly with cleansing oil or milk so I whipped this bottle of Clarins Water Purify One-Step Cleanser out considering I don’t have anything waterproof on.

Clarins came out with 2 variant of this one-step cleanser. The green one – Water Purify One-Step Cleanser with Mint Essential Water is meant for combination or oily skin while the orange one – Water Comfort One-Step Cleanser with Peach Essential Water is for normal or dry skin. As I have combination to oily skin I was recommended Water Purify One-Step Cleanser with Mint Essential Water.

The one that I bought is still in old packaging. Clarins Malaysia only brought in the new packaging right after I bought it. Not the first time! Urrgghhh!

As you can see it really resemble water. Basically this is cleansing water. It’s clear but in green color which I assume is the mint. Eventhough so I can’t detect any mint scent nor any minty sensation from the cleanser.

Make Up - Remover Olive & Tebe Review: Make Up

Review: Tebe Face Cleansing Milk is Not Hard to Like

Being someone who absolutely love doing makeup on a daily basis I find it not hard at all to buy makeup remover or in this case cleansing milk. I’m constantly on the look out for makeup remover. I have no problem stocking up various brands and bottle as this is the first item that used up quite fast.

A few months ago I picked up Tebe Face Cleansing Milk and I only started using it a month later. The bottle is quite small and I had already finished the bottle some time ago without realizing I haven’t post the review up.

What I like about the brand; Olive & Tebe is that both range – Olive and Tebe contain virgin olive oil. Everyone know olive oil is good for the skin and virgin olive oil is even better.

Review: Bioré Makeup Remover For Eye & Lip; Performed Better Than Expected

Bioré received a high recognition and recommendation when it comes to their makeup remover range. Not really a winner in skin care range but maybe their cleansing range are from Japan so it’s pretty good! I’ve tried their Cleansing Oil before converting everything to Clarins which I don’t know why I stray away but I’m back to it. I did a rounding in Watsons a few months back and started filling my basket with all sorts of good budget buy products. Along that I included Bioré Makeup Remover For Eye & Lip in my shopping basket and boy I’m glad I did!


I always emphasis on a bi-phase eye makeup remover. That’s how I like it to be. I’ve tried all sorts of texture but bi-phase still works the best in terms of removing, conditioning and most important the efficiency. Usually for bi-phase removers you can see 2 layer of content. The “oil” floats on top while the water etc is at the bottom.

Budget Buy – Eye & Face Make-up Removers

A few weeks ago I asked you a question in Facebook if you are willing to spend on expensive makeup remover and most of you said you’re not willing to. There’s a reason behind the question actually. A year ago not only I’m not willing to spend on expensive skin care and makeup I definitely won’t splurge on makeup removers. After spending so much on expensive makeup removers I’m cutting down a bit on the splurge side while implementing some budget buy in.

I’ve grabbed some of the best budget makeup removers from a local drugstore; Watsons that I’ve tried previously. Here’s what I think.

Clarins Make Up - Remover Review: Make Up Skin Care - Cleanser Skin Care - Scrubs

Review: Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser With Orange Extract

My current makeup remover is the Cleansing Milk With Gentian by Clarins. Love it to bits. I went to Clarins counter a few months ago with the intention to repurchase but Fennie suggested that I try Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser With Orange Extract on alternate.

Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser With Orange Extract is 125ml in tube and it’s retailing for RM107. Slightly more than Cleansing Milk with Gentian.

 

Surprisingly the back of the tube is full with different language on how to use this.

 

 

Orange extract softens – refreshes and revives.
Moringa Seed extract – purifies and refines while preserving your skin’s natural moisture level. Gentle Silica Microbeads – tackle clogged pores.

 

In a nutsell, this is a makeup remover cum gentle scrub. If you already have a different facial scrub just like me, fret not. The exfoliating action of this is not as harsh as you think. This is more runnier and creamier than conventional facial scrub product. To show you how to use and what I meant by “runnier and creamier than conventional scrub products”, here is a simple step-by-step demo.

In this demo I’m using Make Up For Ever High Definition Foundation. I squeeze just a bit onto the back of my hand.

 

Then I spread the foundation out just like how you’d wear the foundation on your face.

 

First damp your face, squeeze some to your fingertip.
Note: I squeeze the cleanser next to the foundation for you to see clearly on the color and texture of the cleaner.

 

Massage onto face and work into a lather and proceed to exfoliate. Remember to avoid the eye area ya.

 

Rinse with warm water and voilà! Soft and clean face.

 

This really works well in removing my makeup and at the same time cleanse and exfoliate traces from my face. The cleanser do smell like an orange though. It’s stingy to the eyes so make sure you close you eyes tightly and avoid the eye area at all cost.

1) Makeup remover, cleanser and exfoliator at one go.
2) Pricey. Try alternating this with other makeup remover.
3) Smells like orange!
4) Refreshing and cleans throughly.

Definitely a yes. Indeed I purchase this after given a 75ml trial size by a friend to try 🙂
