Cleansing oil versus makeup remover wipes, which is better for skincare? Makeup remover wipes have recently been increasing in popularity due to its ability to perform the task of a cleansing oil not only quicker but also with less hassle. Yet, while cleansing oil requires more time to remove the makeup, die-hard believers of cleansing oil still swear by its effectiveness as they believe cleansing oil is more thorough in removing makeup.
In the end, it all boils down to personal preference – the amount of time you are willing to spend for your everyday skincare routine and knowing the functionalities of your choice of makeup remover. Striving to offer an alternative to cleansing oils for the busy consumer, Bifesta has expanded their popular makeup remover wipes range to include their Sebum Micellar Makeup Remover Wipes.
Infused with ingredients such as Green Tea Extract and Hyaluronic Acid, the wipes not only remove makeup thoroughly but cleanses sebum and dirt while moisturising the skin. With gentle ingredients that possess superior hydrating abilities, the wipes are great for people with oily skin who often struggle to find makeover removers that are effective and do not over strip the skin.
Alongside the Green Tea Extract, the alcohol-free, oil-free and hypo-allergenic formulation helps revitalise the skin to feel light and ultra-refreshed with little to no sticky residue left after using the wipe, making it also ideal for those with sensitive skin.
Furthermore, the wipes are specially formulated to better adhere to makeup impurities, ensuring that makeup does not re-transfer back onto the skin. This decreases the risk of getting clogged pores due to makeup residue, preventing acne. Fit for our on-the-go city lifestyle, this helps us save even more time in our skincare routine by eradicating the need for double-cleansing.
Alongside the fuss-free process of removing makeup, each sheet is also generously soaked with remover containing ingredients derived from facial toners to help maintain moisture while removing dead skin cells, boosting texture and clarity of our skin cells over time with consistent usage.
Additional Tips To Tackle Sebum
Produced by tiny sebaceous glands below the surface of the skin, sebum rises to the surface through our pores to help lubricate and moisturise the skin. With just the right amount, the skin will look healthy with a glow. However, if not taken care of properly, overproduction of sebum can cause excess shine and oil, along with various forms of acne and other skin concerns.
Using Appropriate Skincare Products For Your Skin Type
Different people have different skin types and concerns, in order to have an effective skincare routine, make sure that your products contain suitable ingredients that address your skin conditions specifically. For example, the Bifesta Sebum Micellar Makeup Remover Wipes are perfect for those of you with combination to oily skin.
This applies especially to those who suffer from oily skin and have observed that your skin constantly looks shiny and oily due to overactive sebaceous glands. With the toning effects of the Green Tea Extract coupled with the moisturising effects of the Hyaluronic Acid, the skin will be kept fresh and smooth.
Skincare Routine Tips
Following a regular skincare routine helps to upkeep your skin to ensure that it is healthy, supple and resistant to skin complications. Makeup removal should be the first and most important step of your regimen as it makes sure that your skin is well prepared to absorb the rest of the skincare products such as moisturizer, cream and more.
Diet and Skincare
The concern for our skin health should not end with our skincare routine. We are what we eat, and our skin is often the first sign that our nutrition has been less than ideal. As such, minimise consumption of foods with excess salt, sugar, saturated fats, refined carbohydrates or heavily processed food, as it can contribute to the overproduction of sebum and various skin problems.
