Kyowa Rose Hip Makeup Removal Cleansing Tissue Review

I was browsing around Sasa looking for a steals and deals when I noticed that they are now carrying Kyowa Rose Hip Makeup Removal Cleansing Tissues! Coolness! I have these hanging out just about everywhere in my house and office. I keep 'em by my bed, on my vanity, in my bathroom, in my desk draw...they are kinda my go to item for freshening up makeup, cleaning brushes, and removing makeup on the fly.



Read more about why I love 'em after the jump!

I'm a big fan of MAC Makeup Remover Wipes but damn they dry my skin out bad plus they kinda sting a little bit. I've long since replaced them with Kyowa Rose Hip Makeup Removal Cleansing Tissues that I buy at my local Asian supermarket for a buck. That's right, $1 for 30! Score! A steal and a deal, thank you very much.

They do a rather fab job of removing all my makeup without drying out my skin so I keep buying 'em for quickie makeup removal when I'm lazy plus I use 'em for a variety of other reasons too since the price is right. Do keep in mind that they epically fail at removing waterproof mascara but honestly have you ever met a wipe that does a good job with that? I haven't, not even MAC's version.




Although I do like these for super quick makeup clean up I really dig having them around for wiping my brushes in between shadow color changes. Swipe a few times and my brush is nice and clean for my next color plus dries really quick. These also make a nice pick me up in the summer when my forehead is being oil, quick wipe removes the oil and I can brush on a bit of powder to mattify.

Honestly, they are pretty multitasking and the price can't be beat. When I seen them on Sasa I was kinda excited that the rest of the world could now indulge (that is if you don't have many options around in regards to small Asian shops, markets, etc...) although on Sasa they do retail for $3.20 USD but still if you're doing a Sasa order it's not too bad a deal to throw a box in your cart to take them for a whirl.

They smell fresh and clean, leave my skin moist without a tight, itchy dry feeling, and multitasking as a remover, brush cleaner, and more! What more could a girl want at this price?

Kyowa makes several styles of the wipe, so pick the one you want and get cleansing! The Muse loves 'em!

hi aesteticcoo!

my pleasure :) Me either...some are ok, not bad..but honestly they are for "quick" removal and they don't do the job a normal cleansing regime does :)

hope you had a fab weekend!
