ladies, what about make up remover? do you believe in branded ones?


My gf swear by fancl oil. I tried the sample, didn't like it le. I still prefer my cheap cheap make up remover.

I'm using nivea for eyes & neutrogean deep clean for face. Neutrogena can be use for eyes too but somehow I feel that nivea cleanse better for eyes.

Even when not applying make up, I would sometimes use neutrogena to cleanse before using facial wash

Speaking of facial wash, I like neutrogena too. My mum swear by skII and kept prompting me to switch.

Hmm.... I thought it's kind of wasteful to use such an expensive facial wash, got to wash off anway. I rather pay more for moisturiser than facial wash. But my gf said cleansing is the most important step so she rather invest on a good cleanser.

What do you ladies think?

i dont use makeup remover because i dont use make up like eye shadows, foundation, eye liner, mascara etc.

i dont use expensive facial wash either. i will use those facial wash commonly found in watson, ntuc etc...sometimes i will use facial soap bar.

Just want to share about Eye make-up remover.. ...

Sometimes branded stuff does not mean they work well de..
Bought Bobbi Brown remover and totally amazed at how ineffective they are....short of disposing them... :stupid:

if you use sunblock,you still need makeup remover to remove sunblock. If not it will still clog your pores.


I use SPF 50 on my body and 30 on my face. Usually 50 too greasy for my face. Try not to use whitening on face without any sunblock. Hydroquinone is one of the most common ingredient found in whitening cream, if you do not use sunblock with whitening cream it will react to sun causing more pigmentation.

Yes, I usually have a few range of skincare to cater to different needs of the face. Sometimes the face may appear dry, then I will slap on hyaluronic acid. Sometimes I start to get pimples, I use another range for acne skin.

I must have sunscreen with Spf50, anything lower than 50, only apply to body.

Didn't try men's skincare before. what's the different between men and women skincare products?

Is it need to apply at least spf 50 to avoid pigmentation?
Oh no, have I been under-protecting? I've been using spf 30

I think not much difference between men & women skin care. I go for texture & smell. I like lab series texture, pretty light, except for the face cream. Even its sunblock smell nice. In fact, I think its eye gel is slightly better than clarins, glides on so easily and can apply eye make up immediately

And I thought I can share with dh. But he's usually too lazy to apply moisturiser so mostly I'm the only one using

I still have pigmentation using spf50. I prefer higher spf as I am lazy to wash and reapply. My husband says I put sunscreen even when I stay at home so I got clog pores.

For cleasing oil, I prefer those I can apply straight with hands and wash off. Lazy to use cotton pads.

My husband always laugh at me says that I am lazy yet I want to look pretty, when I told him I am searching for those leave on masks where can wash off fast after 10 minutes.

For me, even in the morning I use cleasing oil. At night no sunscreen applied.

Cleasing oil remove oil from my oily skin.

I have tried various brands of makeup remover oil - skii, she uemura, fancl, laneigh… Don’t like it.

I tried lotion type - estee lauder, loreal, can’t remember cos phased out lotion remover for many years… Don’t like it, not clean enough,
I tried tissue type - comodeem, loreal, neutrogena… Not clean enough also.
I tied cloth type - olay, loreal - good I like but a bit drying.
In the end, I improvise - I use marvel gel first and then finish up with olay cloth. Very clean, non drying, incorporating exfoliation into cleansing to save time. I like.

Come to think of it, most of you are using branded stuff. I wonder if I am missing something? I have tried biotherm, skii, ester lauder, clinique but always end up using those cheaper range. Not exactly on a budget though but somehow the high end ones have never got me hooked…
