3 Great Makeup Removers for Sensitive Skin

The Best Makeup Removers for Sensitive Skin

We’ve all been there. After a long day, you reach for a makeup remover to sweep off your winged liner and contour only to have the formula leave your skin feeling irritated and uncomfortable. It’s true, some makeup removers can be too harsh on the skin, especially if yours is sensitive. But that’s not to say that the right—read: non-irritating—makeup remover for you isn’t out there somewhere. To help point you in the right direction, we’re sharing 3 of the best makeup removers for sensitive skin courtesy of Lancome. Thank us later.

Lancome Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover

Why settle for an eye makeup remover that leaves the delicate skin around your eyes feeling irritated when you can use one that leaves it feeling clean and fresh? Formulated with sensitive skin types in mind, Lancome’s Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover utilizes bi-phase technology to gently yet effectively lift away eye & lip makeup with ease.

To Use: Shake the bottle well to combine the two phases, then saturate a cotton pad with the formula. Swipe the cotton pad over your eyes to remove mascara, eye liner, and eye shadow in a breeze, without any greasy residue left behind. You can even use Bi-Facil Eyes to melt away long-wear lipsticks and lip liners! What’s not to love?

Lancome Bi-Facil Face

Don’t forget to remove the makeup on the rest of your face!  Like the beloved Bi-Facil Eyes, Bi-Facil Face also utilizes bi-phase cleansing technology, and can be used to help remove facial makeup and impurities. The no-rinse formula features a mix of oil and micellar water to help dissolve makeup and cleanse a complexion without leaving behind a greasy residue.

To Use: Shake the bottle well to distribute the ingredients. Next, saturate a cotton round with the cleansing formula and sweep over facial contours until the round wipes clear. You don’t have to rinse, but you can if you’d like. You can also follow up with a toner or cleanser of your choice to ensure that every last bit of makeup is whisked away.

Lancome Miel-en-Mousse Foaming Cleanser

This unique formula—with acacia honey—functions as both a cleanser AND a makeup remover. It also boasts a honey-like texture that, upon contact with water, transforms into a foam to help remove impurities like makeup, excess sebum, and dirt.

To Use: Dispense a few pumps of Miel-en-Mousse Foaming Cleanser onto your fingertips and massage into dry skin. You may notice a slightly warm sensation as you do so. Next, create a foam with a few splashes of lukewarm water and rinse well.
