Mini-Rave: Blender Cleanser

I should have taken pictures, but I was skeptical. So I went ahead, in utter desperation, for there was no way my makeup brushes could be used without a deep and thorough cleansing. After a wonderful wedding in the family, (confession: quite a bit of brush sharing went on), my poor brushes were just begging to get all the gunk off, especially my slanted Sigma kabuki foundation brush (love love love).

My sis in law told me I should use her Beauty Blender Brush Cleanser. I looked at her and it with an one eyebrow up to my hairline. Really, a glorified bar of soap? This was going to give me pristine brushes, after trying every shampoo and makeup remover? Ah well, what had I to lose, things could not get any worse right?

What's all the fuss about- Bioderma Makeup Remover

Yes, its a decent makeup remover. But what makes for a great one? We all know the dreaded mascara panda eyes that ensue after the fun is over, and what girl hasn't fallen asleep with a full face of makeup out of pure exhaustion...we've all done it. Why? Because we know what its going to be like to scrub your lashes till your eyes feel sore, as if they weren't closing from sleepiness anyway. We talk about makeup but we don't pay enough attention to its removal process.

I suppose in such circumstances it would help to know you have a magic potion just lying there and you'll have to do is swipe your eyes a couple of times and your face and all the gooey gunk and the dried flakes come right off. And that's essentially why I bought this makeup remover...
