Honest Review: Makeup Eraser
So I purchased this randomly. I had no idea if it was worth it and I’m not sure that it was super cheap enough for me to not care if it was total crap but I got it anyway. I was at my nail salon and was waiting to pay and leave and those little vixens knew what they were doing when they strategically placed this product among many other little knick knacks by the register. As I stood there waiting for my turn, this product caught my eye. They carried it in hot pink and black. Initially the hot pink box is what caught my eye and when I started reading the box I knew I had to try it. Naturally I picked the black one because it’s my favorite color. The Makeup Eraser claims that it will replace makeup wipes, FOREVER!! I was a bit skeptical, but I am a sucker for gimmicks. I bought the item and I went home thinking this is probably not gonna work, at least not as well as a makeup wipe. I was pleasantly surprised! I created a whole unboxing/blind reaction video if you want to see my actual reactions and comments. The product itself is about 10in long and about 5 inches wide, it seems like it’s made of microfiber maybe? It feels super soft which is great cause you’ll be putting it on your face. So the instructions basically say that you just need to wet the cloth with warm water. Make sure that the cloth stays pretty wet, don’t just wring the whole thing out. Once wet, literally just wipe your makeup off. It’s really that easy. I had a full face of makeup along with smudge proof lipstick and Urban Decay’s All-Nighter setting spray. Makeup wipes are my usual go to and have been able to do the job but this….this product did that but BETTER! It felt like it wasn’t doing anything but it was working overtime. It wiped the eye shadow off in one swipe and that smudge proof lipstick had no chance. Normally with regular makeup wipes I have to continuously rub the lip color off and a lot of times it will also smear all around my mouth and then it’s a whole mess. The makeup eraser worked like a charm! No mess, all the color came off, nice and clean face. I was actually really happy with this product. I definitely recommend it.
PROS:
soft
reusable
fairly decent price
less waste (happy Earth)
removed smudge proof lipstick with few swipes
no toxic/harsh chemicals
variety of colors
CONS:
the shape/size of the cloth
price (if you tend to buy cheaper/generic makeup wipes)
I had no idea where else these cloths could be purchased since it was on a whim that I had gotten them in a nail salon of all places. So I relied on my good old friend Google. The website is so fun and colorful! I also saw that not only can you purchase these cloths in an absurd amount of different colors, but they also sell different sized clothes. I think I will actually purchase the smaller square sized ones because I feel like it would be easier to use and toss in the wash when soiled then trying to remember what corner or part of the longer one I had already used. They also have cool themed ones which I thought was nice. So if you want to purchase these here you go! Enjoy them, I know you will!
