How to use makeup remover without cotton pads

Cosmetic cotton pads are often used when applying and removing makeup. They are inexpensive and very convenient to use. The biggest use of cotton pads is to remove makeup. Because there are wrinkles on the face, if you want to clean them thoroughly, you need cotton pads to clean them. However, in some special cases, there may be a lack of cotton pads, which makes removing makeup very troublesome. So, how to use makeup remover without cotton pads? Let’s take a look below.

The reason why ordinary paper towels can be used instead of makeup remover cotton to remove makeup is that they can absorb makeup remover water and are extremely soft. Even if you rub them back and forth on the skin, you don’t have to worry about hurting the skin. If you really don’t have makeup remover cotton, you can try using ordinary paper towels instead. Ordinary paper towels also have good water absorption, but the disadvantage is that they are much rougher than makeup remover cotton. Long-term use can easily damage the skin, but it is okay to use it once or twice occasionally.

Be careful to be gentle when using it and avoid excessive friction on the skin.

Although wet wipes are not as soft as makeup remover cotton pads, they are still much softer than paper towels, especially special facial wet wipes, which will not hurt the skin even if used to wipe the face. At the same time, wet wipes are sterilized and are clean and hygienic for removing makeup. When using, just pour the makeup remover onto the wet wipes.

Note that some wet wipes contain alcohol, so use with caution on dry or sensitive skin.

The softness of a sponge puff instead of a makeup remover cotton can be said to be no less than that of a makeup remover cotton pad. At the same time, the sponge puff also has good water absorption capacity. Therefore, when there is no makeup remover cotton pad, you might as well use a sponge puff instead of a makeup remover pad. Please note that sponges that are too large are not suitable for removing makeup. This is because the larger the area, the more water it absorbs, which makes it easy to consume too much makeup remover water.

Use medical cotton instead. Generally, small clinics have medical cotton. This kind of medical cotton is sterilized, very soft, clean and hygienic. It is a very good choice for removing makeup. In addition, hospitals generally have medical cotton pads, which are made of the same material as medical cotton, but in the shape of sheets, which is closer to the feeling of makeup remover cotton and can also be used to remove makeup instead of makeup remover cotton.

Using a soft towel instead of a sufficiently soft towel can also replace makeup remover cotton pads to remove makeup. You should know that there was no such thing as makeup remover cotton pads in the past. We relied on towels to wash our faces and remove makeup. In order to make it more convenient for everyone to wash their faces and remove makeup, makeup remover cotton pads were invented. If there are no makeup remover cotton pads, let us go back to the early days of using towels.

It should be noted that ordinary towels are relatively rough and can cause damage to the skin when used to remove makeup, so a soft towel must be used.
