Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes Review

Hi bonitos,

We all know the importance of removing even the last trace of make up before going off to sleep. It is very important that we do not have any make up on at night because that can disturb the pH balance of the skin as well as lead to clogged pores, allergies, rashes and even more.

Though, I follow my CTM routine quite regularly, there are days when I am too lazy. I use a lot of wet wipes during the day and sometimes(read once in a blue moon), during night as well. And, when I found these wet wipes that can remove make up also, I instantly picked it up. Read on further how Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes fared on my expectations.

Ingredients:

Price :

Somewhere around 60 Baht for 20 wipes.

My Experience with Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes:

The 20 sheets come nicely packed in a blue coloured plastic packaging. It has a cut out flap on the top which you can open to pull out the wipes easily. I find the packaging good enough and it contains 20 wipes. Therefore, easy to carry in a hand bag.

Also, it tends to dry up faster if you let the flap remain open for some time. For the same reason, I like lesser number of wipes in a packet. It is a white coloured wet wipe which is good in dimension. I mean, it is quite a big piece which will cover up your entire face. These wipes have a subtle fragrance and feel refreshing when you put it on the face.

Regarding the makeup removal properties, I would say it doesn’t really remove make up completely. It can remove lipstick, lipgloss and kajal with ease, but when I tried using it for my eye make up, it could not satisfy me at all. I know it can’t replace face wash or a liquid make up remover, but if something claims to do something, it better should!

Now, moving to the oil control properties. It kept my face oil free only for 2 hours and after that, I had to use a blotting paper. It refreshed my face and removed the dirt and grime that had accumulated due to normal commuting. But, didn’t do much on makeup removing and oil control properties.

The wipes are quite soft and not scratchy and do not leave any greasy feeling on my face; nor do they over dry my face. Also, I have sensitive acne prone skin and my existing acne were not aggravated with the wipes usage.

For the review I have swatched Avon Glimmersticks Liner, Colorbar Crème Touch Lipstick, Lakme Jewel Sindoor , Maybelline Colossal Liner and Boots Lip Liner.

In one swipe, the entire make up became lighter.

In the second swipe entire make up was gone except Lakme Jewel Sindoor.

And, in final swipe the entire hand looked clean.

I don’t have eye makeup removal swatches, but as I mentioned earlier, it didn’t remove water proof and long lasting eye makeup.

Pros of Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes:

• Travel friendly packaging.
• Did not over dry my sensitive skin.
• My existing acne were not aggravated and there were no further eruptions.
• I like the size of the wipes. It is bigger as compared to the normal wet wipes.
• Removes light make up easily.
• Subtle fragrance.

Cons of Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes:

• Did not remove water proof and long lasting make up.
• Has Parabens.

Would I Repurchase Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes?

They are not available in India, so it will be difficult for me to procure. Hence, No.

Would I recommend Boots 17 Oil Control Makeup Remover Wipes?

Well, there is nothing extra ordinary about these wipes. They shouldn’t be marketed as make up removal wipes because they don’t remove the tough, long lasting make up. Apart from that if you are looking for a decent normal wet wipes, you can buy these.
