The $20 Magic Makeup-Removing Towel Amazon Reviewers Are Obsessed With
If you wear makeup (ever), you know the dread of taking it off at the end of the day. Good news: we discovered a top-rated product on Amazon that will make removing your makeup a breeze—and won’t cost you a fortune either.
If you haven’t heard of the MakeUp Eraser, we’re here to catch you up. Beloved by beauty bloggers and vloggers around the globe, it’s basically a microfiber towel that can remove even the most stubborn of makeup with nothing more than water. Just wet the cloth and voila: Even your waterproof eyeliner and mascara is off your face in seconds.
Unlike most pricey makeup removers that are filled with oils and chemicals that remove cosmetics, MakeUp Eraser cleans your face using the weave of the microfiber fabric—which picks up the makeup instead of smearing it. The shorter side of the cloth is for washing and the longer side exfoliates, simply add warm water and move in a circular motion to give your skin a deep and thorough cleansing—no harsh ingredients necessary!
Here’s what Amazon customer Lola had to say in their updated five-star review of the MakeUp Eraser:
I was so ready to write a review about what a piece of crap this is; boy was I wrong! This actually works! I usually use the Neutrogena cleansing cloths, which work okay but this makeup eraser blows them out of the water. I can’t believe how great it is.
UPDATE* I’ve had this for about two months and I still love it!
Another UPDATE* I went to a show last night and got the dreaded hand stamp. Of course, because they use ink developed my NASA, I couldn’t wash it off. I can’t show up to work with a giant robot stamped on the back of my hand so I scrubbed and scrubbed. When my skin was gone but the stamp wasn’t, I tried the Makeup Eraser as a last resort. That sucker damn near got the whole thing off!!! I’m so impressed by this thing I’m going to get another one just in case they stop making them!
Still not sold on this miracle makeup remover? What if we told you it was machine washable and reusable, and can last up to five years? Yep, you heard us right, folks. All you have to do to clean this nifty cloth is throw it in the washer with your laundry once a week—no special detergents required. This makeup remover will last up to 1,000 washes, eliminating the need to buy disposable products to remove your makeup. So for $20, you’ll score clean skin every day for less than the price of most fancy face washes.
