Makeup Removers

So I know you can't see really what the front or back of the bottle of the product says but I kind of just wanted to show you the bottle. I wanted to because it actually says the bottle is made from at least 50% post consumer products meaning basically 50% of the bottle is made of recycled material. It says the bottle may have marks or imperfections because of that which is why I wanted tot show you the bottle because mine actually doesn't seem to have any little marks like that. Okay so now on to the actual reviewing of the product. It's Neutrogena Naturals Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover, I bought this yesterday and the reason I did is because I'd actually heard that some girls wash their faces twice with their acne washes- once to remove makeup and once to actually cleanse. Now the first thing I thought about that was- okay, that's overwashing your face. Then I actually thought about when I wash my face, I don't wear makeup every single day but when I do I thought about how the cleanser actually turns the color of my foundation and how it seems like you're kind of just rubbing the foundation around on your face while your "washing." So I thought, well maybe I should buy a makeup remover for my face because I already use an eye makeup remover. While I was at Walgreen's I was actually looking for makeup removing wipes, not liking the idea of washing twice, but then I realized like how much it would per month to buy makeup removing wipes and decided to try this facial cleanser. The only reason I considered it was because it doesn't have any acne treatments in it, like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. I figured it would be a really gentle cleanser that would remove my makeup without over drying or over washing my face. So I gave it a try last night and the first thing I thought was OMG this smells so good! I think that drug store brands definitely have that as an advantage over any higher end acne treatment system, like glytone. It really did seem to gently cleanse my skin of any makeup, I did notice however that the cleanser didn't turn as dark as the glytone cleanser when it removed my makeup so I don't think it removed quite as much as the glytone but I do think it removes enough of it so that the glytone can acutally cleanse my face.

I also wanted to include the product at the left which is the Clean and Clear Soothing Eye Makeup Remover. I find that this is a really good makeup remover- I normally use either liquid or gel liner on my top lash line and this really gets rid of that and the pencil liner I put on my water line as well as the mascara I use. It is, like many eye makeup removers, two different liquids so you shake it up before you put it on your eyes with a cotton pad. As you can see though, I've been using it for a while and will probably buy another bottle of this when I finally run out of it because it really does work to get rid of all my eye makeup I wear during the day.
