Lip makeup removal, 3 major misunderstandings to avoid

Applying lip makeup is something every female friend will do, but when it comes to removing makeup, they are at a loss and always fall into some misunderstandings, such as there is no need to remove makeup if lipstick is eaten, it is OK to use a cleansing product with makeup removal function, and repeatedly wipe until the lip makeup is completely removed.

1. If your lipstick is eaten, there is no need to remove it

Ladies who like to wear makeup know that even the most waterproof and oil-proof long-lasting lipstick will face great challenges during unavoidable actions such as eating and drinking. Many girls believe that most of the lipstick has been eaten at the dinner table, and then wiped with a tissue after the meal to make sure no traces of the lipstick remain. Therefore, since the lipstick has been "eaten", there is no need to remove it.

The expert said that this idea is wrong. Waterproof and oil-proof lipstick has corresponding long-lasting color-fixing ingredients added during its production. Even after eating and drinking, traces of lipstick will still remain in the gaps between the lip lines. If you don’t remove the makeup and clean it thoroughly, the precipitation of lip pigments will deepen the lip color and make the lips dull.

2. Use a cleansing product with makeup removal function to clean

Everyone is lazy, but being lazy when it comes to makeup removal is completely self-defeating. There are many cleansing products on the market that are designed for lazy people, which have the cleansing functions of removing makeup, exfoliating, etc. Can these products that claim to remove makeup and cleanse at the same time replace professional makeup remover products?

Expert explains: NO! Cleansing products with makeup removal function have stronger cleaning ability than general products, but for waterproof, oil-proof, and long-lasting makeup, their makeup removal ability cannot completely remove stubborn makeup dirt and easily leave residual traces that clog pores.

3. Wipe repeatedly until the lip makeup is completely removed

Waterproof and oil-proof long-lasting lipstick has a good makeup effect, but it also takes some effort to remove it. In order to completely remove traces of lip makeup, many girls often use cotton pads dipped in makeup remover oil to repeatedly wipe the lip skin. This excessive rubbing and friction will not only damage the skin, but also rub the lipstick color into the stratum corneum and cause pigmentation.
