The Makeup Eraser – want!

I’ve recently watched a YouTube video of Tati using the Makeup Eraser, a reusable cloth that takes off all your makeup with, wait for it, only water.

Apparently it’s available online or through Sephora, but I’ve not seen it anywhere else and I want it!!!

It’s completely chemical free, you can use it up to 1000 times, and it would be perfect for travelling. What an environmentally friendly way to go. Could you imagine what this would do to your bathroom cupboard? – cut down on the clutter!

Has anyone seen this in stores anywhere? Please let me know… desperate to find out!

    Interesting product, I would hope you do not have to rub too hard, especially around the eye area

    I don’t have this particular brand, but I have another brand of the cloth that removes makeup and its great. Soft and gentle on my skin. I tend to press it to my skin and wait rather than drag it over my skin.

    I’ve seen these online, but you really need to drag at your skin. If I used a regular face washer & water, I’d eventually get all my makeup off if I dragged like that too. I don’t even like makeup wipes or pads because you have to drag so much. I prefer cotton balls, if it’s wet enough, you don’t have to drag & pull hard.

    Not sure how high heat could melt the fibres? You can boil microfibre cloths, and dry microfibre on high heat in the dryer. Is it something specific to this particular microfibre cloth? Fabric softener is definitely a no no as it coats the fibres, but detergents are not a problem. Generally it is recommended that you don’t NEED an agent to assist cleaning with a microfibre cloth, not that you CAN’T use one.

    Before you ruin your cloths-
    USING MAKEUP REMOVER WITH MICROFIBRE CLOTH: If you read up on the pack of most microfibres cloths, they mention not to use any type of chemical cleaner, just hot water. Also says not to wash with detergent. This raises the issue of using makeup remover with the cloth.

    http://www.autogeek.net/mi101.html Wash your microfiber in the washing machine with detergent only. Tumble them dry on low heat or no heat. High heat will literally melt the fibers while fabric softener and bleach will eliminate the electric charge that makes microfiber so effective. The primary concern is detergent residue; you want a detergent that is clean-rinsing. Powder laundry detergent very often leaves a soapy residue in fabric, and many liquid detergents contain strong perfumes and fabric softeners right inside the detergent.

    Yep, same stuff. Nappies made of minkee have a waterproof laminate applied to the backside of it. Called polyurethane laminate often heard of as PUL. Some factories will manufacture the minkee and have the equipment to laminate, if not then the fabric is sent off to another factory to do the lamination. The lamination is done under high heat. The waterproof PUL layer will have microscopic holes that allow air to go through, but not water molecules.

    obviously piece of Minkee that hasnt’ been used as a nappy yet!! LOL!!

    hmm I am sure my friend was using Minkee to make cloth nappies for her baby, would this be the same stuff??
    Worth getting a bit of it from her to try you think?

    Different than microfibre, Microfibre is made to retain water and draw in (absorb) water. Minkee does not retain water. Microfibre is scratchy (more fibres per square cm) and a very short fibre length, minkee is very soft and plush.
