Double Strike: 10 Best Biphasic Makeup Removers

Bi-phase makeup remover was developed not just for beauty. What are its advantages and which one to choose?

Bi-phase make -up removers are a liquid for removing make-up from the face. Why two layers? The top layer is an oil solution. It is usually made on the basis of natural oils, for example, almond, castor. This phase not only dissolves makeup, but also actively cares for the skin. And the bottom layer is water, it cleanses, removes the oil film and refreshes the skin, plant extracts are often added to it.

Bi-phase make- up remover removes any kind of makeup, even waterproof mascaras and lipsticks. They are gentle on the skin, non-aggressive and hypoallergenic. Experts especially recommend them to owners of dry skin type. And in winter, when the skin is overdried for almost everyone, this remedy is also suitable for oily skin.

How to use biphasic products correctly

• Apply the product to a cotton pad and apply it to the eyelids for a couple of seconds to dissolve the mascara. Then, with the other side of the disk, remove makeup from your face.
• If you want to remove normal makeup, shake the bottle to mix the two phases, then remove.
• But if you want to get waterproof mascara out of your eyes, you don't need to shake it. With the help of concentrated oil in the top layer, the mascara will dissolve faster.
• Experts recommend moistening a cotton pad with water before using makeup remover – this will save the product and delicately remove makeup.
