The Product You Need to Instantly Melt Away Stubborn Makeup

Long-wear makeup is one the greatest gifts in the beauty space. It goes on and—more importantly—stays on when you need it to, leading to less frequent touch-ups throughout the day. But what you apply onto your skin must eventually come off, and that is where many people meet their match against stubborn, long-wear makeup. You can try your hardest to remove it, but without the right makeup remover in tow you’ll likely end up tugging and tearing away at your skin all without making a dent in the makeup removal process. That’s why picking the right makeup remover is not a decision to take lightly.

Dermablend is no stranger to high-coverage and long-wear makeup formulas, so it comes as no surprise that the brand recently unveiled a powerful makeup remover called Makeup Dissolver. The Skincare.com team got a chance to try the new product prior to its official launch thanks to a complimentary sample sent our way by our friends at Dermablend. Curious to know our thoughts?

THE IMPORTANCE OF REMOVING YOUR MAKEUP 

Don’t you even think about crawling into bed with that cat-eye on. No really—don’t. Removing your makeup isn’t the most glamorous of activities, especially when you’re dead tired, but it should be a non-negotiable step in every evening skin care routine. The reason being that makeup and cosmetics can suffocate your skin during one of the most important times of the day—deep sleep. If your skin is weighed down by makeup during these hours of the night, it can disrupt the reparation process and lead to dull-looking skin morning after morning, not to mention heighten your risk for unwanted breakouts. 

What’s more, if you continuously sleep with your makeup on without washing your pillowcase regularly, that residue can wreak havoc on your skin over time and reintroduce impurities onto your skin while you sleep. For all these reasons, it’s recommended that you remove your makeup prior to shut-eye with a tried-and-true makeup remover.

THE BENEFITS OF DERMABLEND MAKEUP DISSOLVER

DERMABLEND MAKEUP DISSOLVER REVIEW

As someone who regularly wears full-coverage makeup, I’m always on the lookout for a powerful, non-comedogenic formula that can effectively remove my stubborn mascara and foundation without irritating my skin. Upon applying Makeup Dissolver, I was impressed by the formula’s lightweight and non-greasy texture that felt cool and refreshing on my skin. Not all makeup removers deliver a cooling benefit, so I was pleasantly surprised by it. Not only did Makeup Dissolver immediately melt my makeup off,  but it also left my skin feeling clean and fresh as a result. Plus, I love that I have the option to use it with or without water. It’s a perfect choice for lazy nights since I can store it on my nightstand and remove my makeup from the comfort of my own bed.
