I'm usually not a makeup wipe user because my skin is sensitive, and they inevitably have some weird artificial "clean" scent that irritates it or leave a residue that gets my follicles all inflamed. But earlier this week after putting on a serum that was taking my skin bad places fast, I reached for a packet of Yes to Cucumbers Face Towelettes ($3) in desperation and found them rather Read more

I don't know about you, but when I see the skincare aisle at Target, my eyes glaze over. There's so much variety that it's easy to become overwhelmed. Last time I was there, I didn't have time to compare every single makeup remover, so I thought, "Enh, I'll try the Target brand. It's cheap." Well, not only is it less than $4, but it gets rid of most makeup with just one swipe. What's more, I am Read more
Reader Emalove must have been reading my mind. I recently ran out of makeup remover, and although I thought I could go without for a while, I'm definitely in the market to try a new one — particularly one that won't break the bank. Neutrogena's Oil-Free Makeup Remover ($6) Emalove's favorite. Here's why: I love this eye makeup remover. It is by far the best inexpensive one that I've tried. I Read more
If you took my quiz on who owns what yesterday, you already know that L'Oreal and Lancôme have the same corporate owner. Even though each brand operates independently, my inner bargain hunter was wondering if the same products are merely being packaged and marketed differently. So I decided to compare my beloved Lancôme Bi-Facil makeup remover to the L'Oreal version. At first, I was excited; Read more
Recently I ran out of my favorite makeup remover, Lancome Bi-Facil, and thought I'd take a more affordable one for a whirl. I picked up a package of Almay Moisturizing Eye Makeup Remover Pads ($4.94), which were reasonably priced considering that you get 80 pads in one container. Almay makes these pads in oil-free and moisturizing versions, and I hemmed and hawed over which one to choose. In the Read more
A couple of weeks ago I told you about 24-hour Mascara from Prescriptives. Frankly, what worried me about this mascara was how to get it off! I understand that it's supposed to stay on for a full day, but to me that just sounds like insurance that it will make it through the night. Come bed time, I want my makeup off—and I don't want to have to scrub my eyes out to remove it, Read more
