I have a love-hate relationship with makeup wipes – love how convenient they are, but hate how rough they usually feel on the skin. I always have to rub pretty hard and use multiple sheets to effectively remove my makeup. Luckily that was not the case with the Labotica Argan Oil Deep Cleansing Tissues. It was gentle on the skin, and it did a surprisingly good job at removing my foundation and face makeup. The size of the sheets are quite large, so 1 is enough when I have light makeup, and at most I’ll use up to 2 sheets.
The packaging is also a step up from regular makeup wipes since it actually comes with a lid instead of just the resealable seal. This prevents the remaining sheets from drying out and leaking if you bring this while traveling. Speaking of traveling, makeup wipes are usually a great option, but these are rather bulky since they contain 50 sheets per pack. So while I don’t bring these when I vacation, they’ve become my go-to first cleanser when I’m feeling extra lazy.

I feel like most brands half-ass their makeup removing wipes, because let's be honest, when most of us use it we're probably too tired (or drunk) to care. So I especially appreciate Leaders for creating these gentle yet effective wipes. While this won't become my default 1st cleanser, it's now my go-to when I'm in a time pinch (ie. lazy AF).
I used to use only makeup wipes to remove my makeup and had no idea that it was bad for the skin. My skin didn’t suffer or at least I thought it didn’t and I was blissfully happy with my routine until I discovered beauty blogs and educated myself better. LOL! Ulta now delivers to Canada so I can get this but the shipping is $25 which makes an order or any order not worth it. :-(
You can also find Leaders on Free People, I know they ship to Canada but not sure about the shipping costs
Thank you for sharing Joanne!
I used them too especially when I was coming home at like 3am, and I guess ta better than sleeping in your makeup :P
Eek, $25 is really steep, especially since you guys are like, right there. I wonder if these are available via eBay or if Leaders has other distributors in Canada.
