Today I would like to write about something that is just simple and useful.
From: http:/www.sephora.com– 30 wipes at $12.00
Bear Naked Wipes remove makeup and impurities from face and eyes with a blend of aloe vera, chamomile, cucumber and vitamin E. The wipes are free of fragrance, parabens and petrochemicals. The wipes are soft, biodegradable and gentle on eyes and skin.
In support of the National Resources Defense Council’s Polar Bear SOS initiative, a portion of the proceeds from every package sold will go to protect the endangered animals.
Quick Take:
I have to admit that I purchased these for the first time because I liked that fact that the company was donating to save the polar bears. I also liked that the product is natural. I did test to see if the wipes actually removed makeup and eye makeup, I wear a lot of eye makeup, and they do exactly that and very well. I did not have to scrub my eyes out of their sockets to get the eyeliner and mascara off! Having said that, I don’t use them to remove makeup at the end of the day. My favorite way to use them is when putting on makeup.
I have posted numerous times that I like to use my hands and fingers when applying makeup, except for blush. I do know about sponges and brushes and actually own many of them and occasionally use them, but I am literally hands on. So, I use a wipe every morning to remove the foundation off my hands and to clean my fingers as I am applying different color shadows.
I use gel liners and they dry down quickly, but if I make a mistake I press a cotton swab into the cloth to moisten the swab slightly and just gently wipe it away. I use a cloth to clean the liner brush when I am finished so the next day it isn’t crunchy. On the occasion that I use an eye shadow brush, I clean that as well so the next time I need it there is no residue of another color.
We all have our quirky habits when it comes to beauty and these wipes work well with mine. Good for the skin and the planet. Big recommend.
Peace
