Facial Nonwoven Makeup Remover Wipes may seem simple to use, but incorrect use may lead to incomplete cleaning, skin sensitivity, and even accelerated aging!
Misconception: Just pick up a wipe and remove makeup from your entire face
Correct approach: Choose a special wipe according to your makeup and skin type
Heavy makeup/waterproof makeup → wipes containing oily ingredients (such as jojoba oil, mineral oil)
Sensitive skin/light makeup → wipes without alcohol and containing soothing ingredients (aloe vera, witch hazel)
Eye and lips → Special eye and lip makeup remover wipes (avoid irritation of mucous membranes)
Details: Check whether the package is sealed and use it within 30 days after opening (bacteria are easy to breed)
Misconception: Wipe the entire face directly and roughly
Correct approach: Remove makeup in different areas to avoid pigmentation
Close your eyes and apply for 5 seconds: Gently press the wipes on the eyelids to dissolve mascara/eyeliner
One-way wiping: From the inner corner of the eye to the outside, avoid rubbing back and forth (pulling the eyelids can easily cause fine lines)
Vertical wiping of the lips: Remove along the direction of the lip lines to reduce the production of dead skin
Details: Cotton wool residue? Use non-woven makeup remover wipes
Misconception: Rubbing vigorously "thinks it's cleaner"
Correct method:
Press instead of rubbing: Gently press the wipes on the skin for 3 seconds to allow the ingredients to penetrate
Circle the T-zone: Gently circle the oily areas such as the forehead and nose
Lift the jawline upwards: prevent skin sagging
Details: Use a wipe for at most half of the face to avoid repeated contamination (makeup back-seepage)
Myth: Apply skin care without washing face after removing makeup
Correct method:
Warm water rinse: wash away the surfactants left by wet wipes
Amino acid cleansing: secondary cleansing with pH5.5 weak acid cleanser
Cotton pad test: wipe with lotion + cotton pad, it is considered clean only if there is no yellow stain
Details: Waterproof sunscreen needs to be cleaned and removed with a two-in-one product (SPF residue can easily cause closed comedones)
Myth: Not moisturizing in time after removing makeup
Correct method:
Spray cooling: Spray containing ceramide soothes redness
Essence primer: Apply repair essence (such as B5) first, then follow up with skin care
Avoid exfoliation: Do not use acid products within 24 hours after removing makeup
Details: For sensitive skin, ice compress for 3 seconds after removing makeup to shrink blood vessels (reduce stinging sensation)
