Face Halo The Modern Makeup Remover Original - 3 Pack
Credit: .We're not being dramatic when we say these unassuming looking facial pads have levelled up our cleansing game forever. The super soft pads are genius in that they're able to remove everyday dirt, grime and even stubborn make-up -yep, waterproof mascara too- with just a bit of water. There goes your last excuse for using make-up wipes at festivals.
Simple and effective, a muslin cloth should be a staple of every cleansing routine, the reason being it makes sure no stray bit of dirt or make-up gets left behind from your cleanse. Plus, muslin cloths are a solid option for sensitive skin types who might find electrical tools a bit too full on.
