Makeup Eraser- Is it worth the Hype?!

Picture from my Instagram featuring Makeup Eraser @adrienneroyale 


The title says it all, Makeup Eraser- Is it worth the Hype?! WOW!! Was I ever pleasantly surprised! I first want to start out this blog post with something that I think is very important! I am NOT paid to make this review and was sent this Makeup Eraser from Kmitch Makeup Eraser and only asked to post it on my Instagram @adrienneroyale but as soon as I actually used this I felt I had to make a blog post! I just want to start off by saying this, because I have heard so many mixed reviews and I myself always wonder if the “good ones” are sponsored or paid for. This blog post I can assure you is not, and is my own personal opinion and just keep in mind products work differently for everyone, so just because something works for me it might not for you, or vice versa.

When I was reached out by @beauty rebelz  to try the Makeup Eraser I agreed,  because I have heard so many different reviews, some super good and some horrible and I wanted to try it for myself! The countless ads and videos always intrigued me. Remember, a video on Instagram is only 15 seconds and half of them the girls look like they are tugging at their eyes and it looks like the Makeup Eraser would be painful. I have had friends tell me they love it and some say they hate it and so not worth the money. So, I was super excited to try it and honestly didn’t think it would work or if it did work it would hurt me.

I got my Makeup eraser, took my picture for my Instagram, then washed it, so I would actually be able to use it and see how I liked it The directions state to wash it before using it for the first time. I had all of my makeup on the entire day, I am talking full face- primer, foundation, bronzer, blush, lipstick, eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara you know tons of makeup like I wear daily (yes, you can call me a cakeface that doesn’t bother me) I wet my Makeup eraser with warm water and I did notice it took quite a while to get the cloth to soak up the water. The directions state to get the cloth drenched so that is just what I did, I think this is the most important step. Making sure the cloth really is really wet. Once I had it drenched and squeezed it out, I started with my eyes and my makeup came off so smooth, it was just like using a makeup wipe. I wiped my entire face using circular motions, paying special attention to my eye area and did go over it a couple of times (I wear a lot of eye makeup so even with a makeup wipe I have to go over it several times). I then flipped over the clothes to the “exfoliate” side and went over my face a couple of more times.

Directions on how to use the Makeup Eraser 

All of my makeup washed off! WHAT?!?!  I couldn’t believe it, I seriously couldn’t! I had to text my husband and friend right away and show them the picture of the cloth because my husband was even more skeptical then I was! He was like “Wow, I didn’t think it would work” my friend Brenda told me I should do a post if I liked it, so that’s exactly what I am doing!  I didn’t have to pull at my eyes and my face didn’t turn red like I thought it would. The cloth is very soft and feels nice on my face. I didn’t experience any type of reaction and have used it twice.

After using the Makeup Eraser back side

I know this retails for $19.97 (website www.kmitchmakeuperaser.com) and the claim is that it helps save money, cut back on non-biodegradable waste and live chemical free. I totally agree with it being chemical free and cutting back on waste. It does save you money not having to buy makeup wipes but you do have to wash it. I personally can’t keep using a dirty cloth time and time again, and I certainly don’t do laundry daily. I used the cloth twice and feel I should wash it now before I use it again. It is a nice sized cloth so if you just want to use a small section at a time it could be used maybe 5 times at most. For me though, I would want to wash it at least every two uses. It is perfect if you can use it a few times and throw it in the load with your towels. Just for myself, I will have to wash it more often then I regularly do my laundry. I read on the website it is good for at least 1000 washes.


Personally, I can’t believe I am saying this but I would pay the $20 for it! I feel like it worked so well and some makeup wipes give me irritation and it gets very costly to always having to buy them. I’m sure I will still use makeup wipes but not every day! Just on the days my makeup eraser isn’t washed and I am being lazy and don’t feel like washing it haha.


After using the Makeup Eraser all of my makeup was off, but my face didn’t feel completely clean and I did wash it afterwards like I normally would with my face wash. This doesn’t bother me because regardless if I was using makeup remover wipes, after I get my makeup off, I always wash my face afterwards. Overall I am so impressed with this little pink cloth and I love it! It is amazing how skeptical I was of this product but ended up loving it and knowing I will continue to keep using it!


Have you used the Makeup Eraser? What are your thoughts? Were you as surprised as I was?!

XOXO

  1. I've always wondered how much pressure you would have to put on your face to wipe it all off? Does it feel rough on the skin? DF xo

    1. No, it does not feel rough at all and you do not have to put much pressure, just the same amount as you would with a makeup wipe. It is very soft on your face! I am still using and loving it!
