Hello Lovelies,
I've been feeling lazier these days. I miss doing a lot of things that I normally do but my road to recovery is on the right path. I only have to wear my boot for 2 more weeks but I've been getting frequent muscle cramps.
Today, I'll be reviewing this makeup remover that I purchased at the CCO for $20.00. Now, if you get this at any other Estee Lauder counters, you'll pay $25.00 for it.
What Estee Lauder says about this remover...
Quickly and gently removes all makeup, even long-wear or waterproof formulas.
Unique water-based creme-gel refreshes you with a crisp herbal citrus scent.
Rinses away easily and leaves skin feeling soft and smooth with no greasy afterfeel or oily residue.
Packaging
- Minty Blue plastic container with a pump. I'm a bit surprised it didn't come with a cap but when you move the head to the correct spot there is a lock mechanism that prevents the pump from dispensing products. The pump works well and is easy to control.
- 6.7 oz or 200 ml. A pretty generous amount I'd say.
Product
- This is a cream makeup remover. You basically apply to the area you need to remove makeup and wipe it off with a cotton round.
- It doesn't work as effectively as I would like because it takes a lot of time for it to dissolve my eye makeups and it smears them all over my eyes when I try to wipe it off.
- I prefer to use it to remove my face makeup because it's less messy.
- Because it is a cream and doesn't leave any oily residue, I also like to use this to fix and remove any makeup mistake I might have made.
- It's non-irritating and has a fresh scent.
Final Thought
Overall, this is just an ok remover. I would not recommend this for removing eye makeup and waterproof makeup since it doesn't do a very good job in that area. However, for removing face makeup, I find it handy. The bottle contains a generous amount that will last me a long time. I don't think I will repurchase once I'm done with it though.

I think it's a bit too expensive for not being a 10/10 make up remover... I would still prefer Bioderma ones :)

Yeah at this price point I would expect better.
DeleteI personaly think this is a really good makeup remover. Worked great on me. I use washable makeup & hardly use any waterproof. Agree that its a little expensive & there are so many other good options to choose from.

yeah it's not that effective when it comes to smudge-proof or waterproof makeup. Otherwise it works ok.
DeleteThanks for sharing, I might have to try this out.
ReplyDeleteHope it works out for you
DeleteThis seems like a pretty good makeup remover, but I prefer one that does it all without having to reach for something else. Thanks for reviewing and sharing.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way you do
DeleteSome people really enjoy cream makeup removers but i find them to be such a hassle ;p I dont have the patience for it but it seems more soothing if done in a patient way haha :)
ReplyDeleteI do like this line of moisturizers from EL =) Smells fresh!
I like fresh scent but the scent on this particular remover is just ok to me. I only like using cream remover to fix little mistakes.
DeleteHmm, I've been using Neutrogena's makeup remover wipes for the past year & the only thing I like better than them is coconut oil. The wipes don't leave you feeling oily & they remove EVERYTHING. The coconut oil obviously leaves me oily, but it take EVERYTHING off also.
ReplyDeleteHmm between the two, I think I would prefer the wipes.
