Need Help Taking Off Foundation

I use MAC's Studio Fix foundation, and I find it's really hard to remove. I usually remove my makeup with a bar of soap, but it's really hard to remove the foundation.

Can anyone suggest a makeup remover that will completely take off my foundation? Should I maybe use makeup Cleansing cloths?

Yeah, try using a baby wipe or something like that first and then use whatever you normally use. It gets off almost everything.

Re: Need Help Taking Off Foundation

The cleansing cloths are great for taking off makeup. My favorite is the Pond's Face Cleansing Wipes. I wash usually my face with a creamy cleanser like Origins' Pure Cream or Clinique's Take Off The Day, Cleansing Milk to take off makeup before following with my regular face wash regimine.
Hope that helps.

Re: Need Help Taking Off Foundation

i dont really wear foundation, but if i do wear like a face full of makeup i use a face scrub to remove it (not for eyes though obviously).
so i get rid of my makeup and exfoliate my skin at the same time.

Yes well if your foundation has oil in it soap will not adequately take it off. ASk the pharmacist at the drugstore.

Re: Need Help Taking Off Foundation

you can use baby wipes or any gentle makeup remover...I use Pond's Makeup Remover and I love it. After I use that I wash my face with a gentle face wash to get it clean.

Tried and true: Pond's Cold Cream. It is a bit annoying, though. It works, and that's what counts.

Clinique has a creamy face wash which is really good at removing make up. I find that creamy face washes are better at removing foundation than regular soap.

Re: Need Help Taking Off Foundation

Clinique has this foam cleanser, I love it!!! You put it on your face and then wash it off. Since its a foam, its so soft on the skin.
