Travel kit: 10 compact makeup removers
Masha Vorslav
In September, the next wave of vacations will begin - and we know for ourselves how every time you want to take even less things with you to make your suitcase easier. A universal recipe has not yet been brought out, but many compact makeup removers have appeared - we remembered them.
Toitbel Eye Make-Up Remover Eye Make Up Discs
The Swiss brand Toitbel is not loud (other brands represented in chain stores declare themselves more distinctly), but glorious: we believe that its care products may well replace more expensive counterparts if there is no need for refined smells and exquisite packaging. Toitbel has wipes for removing makeup, they are stored in a convenient jar with a screw cap, so that with constant use the probability of drying is scanty. If the eyes are painted infrequently, it makes sense to keep it upside down: this way the cleansing milk can soak the upper disc.
Concealer makeup "L'Etoile" Effaceur D'Art
"L'Etoile" becomes Russian Sephora: if not the first, they do really interesting, not banal (remember at least this palette of liquid lipstick) and useful things. Among the latter - a pencil for makeup correction Effaceur D'Art. It repeats the more famous Givenchy pencil, but it is several times cheaper - for an ideologically non-eternal tool this is a great advantage. The pencil is essentially a set of interchangeable pointed applicators that feed the right amount of lotion to fix the arrow or contour of the lipstick.
Cotton Swabs Jane Iredale Dot the i Makeup Remover Swabs
However, cotton swabs are irreplaceable - only if there are no pumped nearby. Unlike the usual ones, a makeup remover is poured into these rods, and in order to bring the wand into working condition, you need to break one end of it — then the other will be soaked. Jane Iredale is not the only one who sells such sticks: similar ones can be found, of course, in Sephora and in several other brands, for example bareMinerals and Almay.
Napkins L'Oréal Paris Dermo-Expertise Triple Active Re-Nourish Cleansing Wipes
The most common format of road makeup removers. L'Oréal is not the only manufacturer of such wipes, but the brand produces high-quality (regardless of the line) and inexpensive. Despite the fact that some wet wipes are good at removing cosmetics, we would advise others not to experiment and choose not simple hygienic ones, but those that are designed specifically for dissolving tonal and carcass.
Sephora Express Nail Polish Remover Polish Remover
We have a reasonable suspicion that everything for this listing may be found in Sephora alone, but, unfortunately, it does not always have access. But if there is, it is worth looking into the department of branded cosmetics and accessories (even if you think you don’t need anything from there) - such things like a jar for removing nail polish will be found there. Inside it is a sponge, generously soaked in with a nail polish remover, which you can quickly wash off with a polish. From the pros: the liquid will not pour out of it, the packaging is light and can be put even in hand luggage.
Maybelline Express Nail Polish Remover Polish Remover
Available analog Seforovskoy "erase" - means Maybelline. Absolutely the same jar and principle of operation, but you can buy it in the nearest chain store. Note that with all the obvious advantages, it is possible not to try to wash the glitter out of the nails using the method described, and it is better to take light varnishes on the trip (dark ones are poorly erased from the cuticle and from the side rollers) - or have a correction pencil.
Pencil for correction of manicure Oriflame Beauty Nail Polish Corrector Pen
Of the dozens of such tools, we chose the Oriflame pencil for several reasons: a transparent bubble at the non-working end, in which the remainder is visible; replaceable tip; the absence of acetone in the composition and low price. Although Oriflame products can be bought not only through catalogs, pencils of other brands may be closer - it is easiest to find them from the popular OPI, Orly and Essie lacquer brands.
Balsam for washing Cosmetics 27 Cleanser 27
Cleanser 27 is a thick paste that turns into butter on the skin and dissolves tone, mascara, lipstick and everything else. For a complete cleansing of the balm you need quite a bit, it cannot physically spread in the bag and soak it inside, and the full-sized jar is small and light. Convincing minimalists can pay attention to the road cosmetics brand (there is, for example, in Cosmotheca): packaging it even less, but for a week or two just enough money.
Balm for removal of a make-up of Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm
Similar to the Cleanser 27 mechanism, the balm of the Hungarian spa brand is black, like a mud mask, contains natural oils (jojoba, almond, apricot) and thermal water from the corresponding source. Miniature Thermal Cleansing Balm, like Cleanser 27, is extremely gentle and suitable for sensitive and dehydrated skin and for processing the area around the eyes. By the way, it is recommended not to wash it off immediately, but in 10-15 seconds it’s easier to make cosmetics easier.
Napkins for removal of a varnish of Priti NYC Soy Polish Remover Wipes
Brand makes nail polish remover without acetone and odor; it washes away the nail polish more readily than the more aggressive counterparts, but it is an order of magnitude more careful with the nails and the skin around them. Wipes are also saturated with this liquid: each one is packed in sachets, and all ten are packed in a muslin bag. This is an even more compact option than a jar with a sponge, but care must be taken to ensure that sachets do not burst: the liquid can evaporate even through a tiny incision.
