Using Wipes to Remove Makeup? This is What May Happen to Your Skin!

We don’t want to make you too nervous, but according to dermatologists, makeup wipes don’t really work and using them can cause terrible damage.

This is an alarming revelation, one that we didn’t see coming, but apparently makeup wipes don’t actually remove your makeup! According to experts, these products are soaked with chemicals that hurt your skin in the long run and even worse than that, they don’t remove 100% of the makeup.

A new viral video which has been exploding on the web shows us exactly how inefficient makeup wipes are. In the video below, you can see that while removing makeup with wipes, the pores remain clogged and the makeup isn’t actually removed from the skin! What really drove people wild was the solution presented there: The Makeup Eraser towel.

What happens if you don’t remove 100% of your makeup?

Theresa Lynch has been suffering from eye makeup and mascara for years but would skip properly removing her makeup every day. She started experiencing painful irritation and swelling as a result, which led to a horrifying discovery of hard, black masses embedded in the underside of her eyelids.

The discovery led to a 90-minute surgery to remove the buildup from underneath the eyelid, but the damage has left permanent scarring.

When women don’t wash their face properly after using these cleansers, their face can become extremely dry and irritated. Some products even contain preservatives like formaldehyde, which is allergenic and harmful to the skin.

Not only do the chemicals harm your skin but rubbing the sensitive skin on your face and around your eyes each night causes low-grade inflammation, which can cause changes in pigmentation and premature wrinkles. Harsh rubbing can also pull out eyelashes, leaving your lashes looking less lush.

The Magic of the Makeup Eraser

Lucky for the makeup-wearing women of the world, a new product has been developed that eliminates the harm of makeup remover altogether. The Makeup Eraser, a soft cloth made from a unique patent-pending fabric blend, completely removes stage, HD, smear proof and waterproof makeup and mascara with nothing but warm water. Invented in the U.S., these reusable towels are hand sewn and machine washable, making them very low maintenance.

Made of a polyester-silk blend, the cloth fibers are finer than human hair and stand straight up, rather than looping around, which is softer on your skin. Once wet, the eraser creates a hydro-mechanical process that breaks the surface tension of the oils that bond makeup to the skin, essentially pulling the makeup and dirt from your pores. The result: 100% removal of all makeup.

The best news, The Makeup Eraser has been dermatologist-approved, including for sensitive skin.

To use the Makeup Eraser, soak the fabric with warm water and, using the side with shorter fibers, gently wipe off makeup in a circular motion. Once the makeup is removed, flip over the Makeup Eraser and use the side with longer fibers to clean your skin and exfoliate.

Brightening skin—and the world

Not only is the Makeup Eraser better for your skin, but it’s better for your wallet and the environment. One Makeup Eraser towel lasts for 1,000 washes or roughly three to five years. That’s one purchase over the course of five years rather than dozens of purchases of expensive makeup remover and cotton pads or tissues—a pretty huge savings!

The Makeup Eraser also keeps women from adding daily wipes, cotton pads and tissues to landfills, making the Makeup Eraser a green choice.
