Make up remover that you use while showering: I tried it out! #GoodbyePandaEyes

Make up remover that you use while showering. If someone asked me what’s the beauty trend of the moment, I would never dream of saying “taking your make up off in the shower!”: however, it’s true, and it’s all over the TV, in all the magazines and being talked about by lots of bloggers, so I thought I had better try it for myself! I’m talking about the new make up remover for face and eyes that you use in the shower by Nivea, which carries the promise of #GoodbyePandaEyes

So, the concept isn’t good. It’s great! Sometimes I’ll be in the shower washing my hair, when suddenly I feel my mascara melting down my face, my eye make up smudging massively, and I have to grab a flannel and try to wipe it all off. Not every time I have a shower, but almost. Even when I’m at the gym (and then it’s not ideal to tiptoe back into the changing rooms after my shower looking like a panda in front of everyone… ahem..!)

The best make up removers: I tried out 6 by different brands, and here’s what I thought!

The best make up removers: I tried out 6!

The best make up removers. I recently discovered something that used to seem like nonsense to me, even if I’d heard everyone saying it was absolutely essential. I’m talking about the cleansing routine for removing your make up before bed. My fundamental golden rule, that I hope is also yours, is: “Never ever go to bed with your make up on”. Ok,  I admit when I was younger I used to do it sometimes: after a really late night I would occasionally fall into bed without taking off my make up. I don’t remember any disastrous consequences on waking up the next morning to a pillowcase smeared in mascara. However if I did it now, the next day my skin would undoubtedly look like a 3D geographical map: aahh, spotty chin!! If you follow me on Snapchat you’ll know all about my troubles with these wretched chin pimples!! Skin problems are caused by lots of things, of course, however my skin always flares up when I don’t properly cleanse my skin, or when I’ve worn particularly heavy make up, for example when filming for TV or for photo shoots…

The best make up removers: I tried out 6 by lots of different brands, and here’s what I thought!

So I said to myself: “Come on, Irene, you have to take better care of your skin”. Starting with proper make up removal which, with hindsight, I know is really important. So, thanks to the amazing #SephoraMagicCleanser, I chose 6 different types of make up remover, from 6 different brands, and I tried them all out. I’ll tell you what I thought, what each one is like (some of them are a bit absurd) and which ones are my two favourites for my skin!
