Review: Bioré Aqua Jelly Makeup Remover

This is my second review on Bioré's make-up removers. Hahaha. Anyhow, I don't put makeup often - as some of you might already be aware. However, it is a necessity for all to put on sunblock. And sometimes, sunblock will have the tendency to lock your pores so you should always cleanse your face with make-up remover to remove the impurities.

Think of it as a double cleansing every night when you get home.
Step 1: 
Clean your hands. Never (try your best not to) touch your face with your bare hands.
Step 2: 
Steal some cleansing oil from your mum, sister or girlfriend and massage it on your face in circular motions and rinse it with water
Sometimes, you will 'emulsify' the cleansing oil with a little bit of water and massaging it before rinsing it off entirely
Step 3: 
Follow up with your regular gel/ foam cleanser and rinsing it off entirely.
Step 4:
Finish off with your everyday toner and moisturisers.
Right, back to the main topic.
Sunblock is the main reason why I indulge myself in various makeup remover/ cleansing oils. I've always been a fan of cleansing oils because they do so much for me yet they do not dry out my skin. Hooray!

So this one fine day, I've decided to "experience a whole new world of make-up removal with the new Bioré Aqua Jelly Makeup Remover". Those were the exact words on the advert but I kid you not, it feels damn good.
  1. Clean your hands and ensure they are dry
  2. Pump few (2-3 pumps) onto your hands and spread them evenly over your face and eyes.
  3. Gently massage over to dissolve makeup, and
  4. Rinse thoroughly with water
The product cautions you to remove your contacts before use and to close your eyes during cleansing. Like any other liquid products it has the tendency to go places you don't want it to. So, do be careful as it might still sting your eyes if it gets in.

While it has similar effects as cleansing oils, it feels lightweight and gentle. There's also a hint of floral fragrance to it. Usually, I'm all for fragrance-free but this is so nice that I really wouldn't mind having it. Hahaha. Makes you feel like a spa/ facial experience when using it.

It will be difficult to judge on the removal effectiveness on sunblock. So, I've specially donned myself on some Mascara - Waterproof Mascara - to test how well this works and I'm pretty amazed at it.
I should have captioned it, 'Before' and 'After'.
I don't know what came over me. Hahaha.
 So 'with' is the waterproof mascara that I was talking about and 'without' is it being removed by the wonderful Bioré Aqua Jelly Makeup Remover. I'm really impressed with this because:

  • Very lightweight
  • Leaves my skin feeling refreshed - and my spirits too (probably because of the scent... Hahaha)
  • Awesome cleansing ability at how it removes all that waterproof mascara

I think it was difficult to judge after just a few uses but the product boasts to nourish and hydrate your skin with a dewy moistured finish as it contains 40% more moisturing essence. I have to agree that it feels like the make-up came off very easily without needing to put in extra strength whilst cleansing.

Did I not mention that you do not need any facial cotton pad or tissue for this? Save yourself some money and save the environment yo. Hahaha. Go to any leading supermarkets, personal care stores and western pharmacies or departmental stores and grab yours today at a mere $24.90.

Have fun~!
