Review : Purederm Makeup Remover NEW version with Collagen

Hi bubblies!

How's your day?
Hope you stay fantastic! :D

If you've been reading and following my blog, maybe you will find that this Purederm makeup remover wipes have been featured in my previous post >> Find the Cheaper Alternative Makeup Remover Wipes!

And the final verdict that I gave to Purederm compare to other makeup remover wipes that I've tried is that being : 1. affordable and 2. contains good ingredients to the skin as bonuses, but a let down is might be their quality of wipes. With that being said, as much as I like their makeup remover formula, I never intend to buy another because the wipes sometimes felt too rough on my skin. >,<"

And when I saw this Purederm NEW version with Collagen at Watsons Mal Kelapa Gading on the other day, I was intrigued to try again. Well, maybe this is much more improved one?

 

Hmm.. let's see! :D

The difference in the new packaging is they added a green color, rather than just a plain silver like the previous one.

What it says : Purederm Makeup Remover Cleansing Tissue will clean the eyeliner, eyeshadow, lipstick, blush-on even waterproof mascara without irritation to the skin. Could tighten the size of the pores. Keep skin soft, smooth, moist and fresh.

Ingredients : Water ( Aqua ), SD Alcohol, 40-B, Propylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Polysorbate 80, Sodium Lauryl, Sulfate, Methylparaben, Allantoin, Cucumber Extract, Portulaca Extract, Camellia Sinensis Extract, Fragrance ( Parfume ), Grapefruit Seed Extract, Panthenol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Citric Acid.

But most importantly, the formula is now added a collagen. And as for information >> a collagen-stimulating substance is famous to reduce wrinkles and improve the firmness of the skin, improving the appearance of the skin to make it look more youthful.

And for most of an infused collagen ingredients in any skincare, the price could be quite expensive than the regular one. ( Just like any other skincare with anti-aging formula )

The price range for this new version of Purederm is around IDR. 40000 rupiahs ( around $ 4 US Dollars ) for 20 sheets. which is yeah, a little bit higher than the previous one.

My review..

( + )

Again, I love Purederm formulation. After I use it, my skin instantly feel supple, moist and somehow it even look more radiance and lighter. Also, doesn't break me out so far. all I can see my skin is looking clean. which a HUGE plus. 

For what it says it could remove a waterproof mascara, I just think it's always not enough to only use this or any kind makeup remover wipes. I always always re-clean my lashes from waterproof mascara formula with the help of an oil base makeup remover ( >> my favorite is L'oreal Dermo Expertise GENTLE Lip and Eye Makeup Remover ).

It also has a fragrance scents, because it's infused with perfume. It's almost like a floral + cucumber scents to me. Personally, I like it and no complain about it :)

( - )

But again, a sad part is.. I can feel like the quality of the wipes is having a downfall. It feels scratchy and even poorer quality than the previous one. The wipes doesn't glides on smoothly on my skin and it was pain in the ass to drag the wipes onto my face. :(

You can see my "comparison of the wipes" with other brand through the link on the top post :)

Overall..

With sadly :( being said, I won't repurchase this again. As far as I like the formulation, the wipes feels scratchy on my skin. :(
But maybe next they would come up with just their formula in a bottle? I'll definitely make another consideration! :D

Find the Cheaper Alternative Makeup Remover Wipes!

Hi lovelies!

How's everything going?

Hope you're having a blast in your days :)

So, talk about makeup remover wipes.. I've tried a bunch! and I think some good makeup remover wipes can be so expensive. To me, sometimes I love experimenting with my makeups and ended up getting a full face makeup or can I stress out : LOADED WITH CRAZY PIGMENTS ON MY FACE! Using a makeup remover wipes sometimes just need.. MUCH!

One of good drugstore makeup remover wipes that I've tried is Bioré Cleansing Oil Sheet.

But I think it's quite expensive for 10 tiny sheets for each pack. Even though they promised to removed waterproof mascara in 1 swipe ( after you hold for good 5-6 seconds ), but yeah. it didn't happen to me. It does remove them! But I didn't feel so clean with only 1 swipe and I will always keep swiping back and forth until no residue left in the wipes. And for tiny size sheet it provide, usually I take at least 2 sheets in every time I clean both of my eyes and whole face.

For a week of use, I need to buy at least 1 pack. And that's A LOT to me!

( regular price for 1 pack around IDR 26000 rupiahs or $2.60 US Dollar )

 Overall :

(+) good quality wipes

(+) remove waterproof makeup

(-) expensive

(-) small size of sheet

Moving on, I discovered Purederm.

Not just it's in the same price range as Bioré, but it provide WHOPING 20 sheets in each pack! and YES it could remove waterproof mascara, YES it contains much more other goodies (like Green tea extract, Vitamin E & Aloe Vera), and YES it has bigger size sheets than Bioré! ( which means I only need 1 sheet in single use! ) 

Hmm.. sounds heaven to me :D

And downside about this product compare to Bioré is maybe the quality of the wipes. It has bigger pores types of wipes and not as smooth as Bioré one.

 Overall :

(+) cheaper than Bioré

(+) remove waterproof makeup

(+) contains vitamin for the skin

(+) good size of sheet

(-) decent quality of wipes

Moreover, after experience good things on my skin with an enriched goodies in my makeup remover wipes, I always looking for something like that. 

And I was kinda shock the other day, when I found these!

You know, brand "Mitu" is famous for it's baby wipes! And I would never guess it will come up with makeup remover as well. I've tried 2 types from their brand (I'm not sure how many types they have), and it is all specifically for oily skin, called SHIKADA and finesse. 

Description : Cleanse, Tone and effectively remove makeup, even waterproof mascara. Its also enriched with Cucumber extract, Chamomile extract and Aloe Vera extract that purifies skin.

What I like about this product is the price point! Sooo cheap, you can say I'm joking! For 10 sheets in each pack, I bought around IDR 4000-6000 rupiahs ( around $0.40-0.60 US Dollars ) in Diamond Supermarket Mal Artha Gading. YES it removes waterproof makeup. Bigger size of sheets than Bioré which I tremendously like. For the quality of the wipes, moreover like the Purederm one.

 Overall :

(+) cheap

(+) remove waterproof makeup

(+) contains other goodies for the skin

(+) good size of sheet

(-) decent quality of wipes

Regular Mitu Baby Wipes

But then I compare all those Mitu makeup remover with the regular Mitu baby wipes.

While the regular one doesn't suppose to clean makeup in the first place, but it does contains other goodies like what I was looking for ( like vitamin E which is to keep skin smooth and healthy and Chrysanthemum extract for natural skin rash protection ) 

*AND Hey! It wouldn't bother me if someone come and say my face is as soft as baby's butt! It's compliment, I would say! Matter of fact, I WANT those softness of baby's butt on my face o_O"

So far, I've been using regular Mitu baby wipes as my makeup remover. Simply, the price point is just mesmerizing for me. For 24 sheets in each pack it was only IDR 5900 rupiahs ( around $0.59 US Dollar ), and the sheet size? BIGGEST of them all :P

For the regular Mitu baby wipes, it could clean eyeshadow, blush, lipstick or other pigments in the face. But not best for removing waterproof makeup ( I always use waterproof mascara ). So far, it didn't irritate my gentle area like my eyes. Well, it meant for baby's sensitive soft skin after all , right?

My trick to remove "leftover" waterproof mascara is simple.

First, you can add tiny drops of your trusted oil based makeup remover to the wipes.

I'm using L'oreal Dermo Expertise GENTLE Lip and Eye Makeup Remover.

I love this thing! Hands down I still think this is the best formula for removing waterproof makeup!

But, I just ran out of this pretty fast! Moreover, it is not practical because I need to supply cotton pads >,<"

Or, you can use extra virgin olive oil as the substitute of the oil based makeup remover! Natural ingredients, yet effective to clean those bad boys waterproof mascara. It could strengthen your lashes as well! 

But maybe the downside is it felt so greasy if you're not used of using it >,<"

Well, after all makeup remover is not the last step of cleaning your face from makeup, right? You still gonna need to wash your face with facial cleanser for a good clean skin :D

 Well, moreover.. Mitu has an extra thick version which you can get a thicker types of wipes, so it glides smoother in your skin (the price is not much different from the regular after all)

UPDATE August 6, 2012 : As I'm using Mitu baby wipes from now, this is my favorite from a several few types from MItu.

Extra Thick Wipes Sensitive with Chamomile & Aloe Vera.
The wipes is thick & soft, also has extra Aloe Vera in it. 

I hope this post helpful! XD
