Given how much waste you can generate by using cotton wool pads and face wipes daily, it's unsurprising that many people are looking for more sustainable, reusable and affordable options. However, is it time to ditch the double-cleanse and rely on a cloth alone to remove your makeup? I tried three products on the market at different price-points to find out...
- Microfibre布如何工作？-
As the name suggests; these sorts of fibre cloths have a much larger surface area than your standard flannel, creating a density that causes friction, removing the makeup and trapping it in the cloth through absorption. It really is that simple! You just add water and you're good to go; the technology will do the rest for you.- 优点 -
这不仅是一个更环保的选择，而且是一个更友好的选择。如果你用棉花羊毛垫使用面巾或胶束水，这是一种持续的费用，但布是一个初始投资，这将保持一个非常长的时间。如果你只穿着非常自然的化妆，这也很快，这意味着如果你的例程大概是最小的大惊小怪，这是完美的。这对旅行来说也很好，特别是液体限制，或者如果你要离开几周或几个月;你只是把布料扔进你的行李箱里，经常给它一体洗涤，这就是它！我没有发现他们也不会在自己和自己身上使用，尽管他们确实给出了一些轻微的去角质。-THE CONS -
The only real con I have for this option is that it can be tricky to get off every last scrap of black and / or waterproof eye makeup so you may end up tugging and being a little rough on the delicate eye area, which isn't great and can cause fine lines. You also need to be sure that you wash them regularly and thoroughly; by their nature they trap makeup in their fibres and you're only going to cause yourself problems if you let that bacteria fester and then wipe it all over your face again. I also think it's important not to confuse this for cleansing your skin; your makeup will be off but your skin isn't necessarily clean underneath, so be sure to cleanse afterwards.-THE PRODUCTS I TRIED -
First up we have the most expensive product I tried: theOriginal Makeup Eraser| £16.99 for 1. This is a nicely large option that you can easily roll up for travel. I find their 'remove your makeup without chemicals' tagline a bit annoying; there's nothing wrong with using a cleanser with good ingredients that work for your skin, however - that aside - I did really like this product. It washes really well and claims to last for 3-5 years, so could be worth the slightly heavier investment.接下来我试过了Face Halo| £7.50 for 1 | which is a little different, in that it's a small, round pad. I do find this a little less practical, as you just get less space to work with when removing your makeup, however it still does the job really well and I find it one of the more effective options on eye makeup. Where the Makeup Eraser says it's 10-50 time finer than a human hair, the Face Halo claims to be 100 finer! It says it can be washed up to 200 times so that's 3-4 years worth of use you'll get out of one of these if you wash it once a week. In practice, though, I think getting a pack of 3 of these is the better option so that you always have one on-hand whilst the others are in the wash.
Finally, we have thePrimark Makeup Cleansing Cloths| £2.50 for 3. Obviously, with this being a Primark product, you can't get this online and I actually had to fish the box out of the bin to find some product information on these - even then there wasn't a lot! (Other than the fact these are polyester, like the Makeup Eraser.) For me; this really worked and was comparable to the Makeup Eraser, so the only question is how long they'll last. It's so far, so good for me in terms of how they've washed, however I guess the super-affordable price makes me wonder how long they'll continue to be effective.
-MY VERDICT -
我认为如果你正在使用面部擦拭;这是一个无脑子，你应该切换到微纤维布！但是 - 作为双重清洁的热情支持者 - 他们在哪里适应我的日常生活？虽然旅行和紧急情况，但我确实只用它们用水去除我的化妆品，然后使用温柔的奶油清洁剂。他们删除了我的大部分化妆;从我的脸和大部分眼睛妆容中的一切，虽然我不喜欢拉在我的眼睛里，所以我用第二个清洁作为一种只是确保一切都消失了。如果你只穿轻质化妆，这些可能会为你做这项工作。然而，亲自，我更喜欢使用油基清洁剂来溶解化妆，溅在一些水上乳化它，然后使用湿度微纤维布 - 它比用正常的法兰绒或柔性擦拭洁面乳更有效和有效布。你甚至可以在布料中弹出一点奶油清洁剂来帮助沿着事情; I don't find this impedes the fibres from doing their thing.
