Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Parfum is a catch-all term for an ingredient or more that is used to give aroma to products. Parfum, or fragrance, can be a blend of hundreds of chemicals or plant oils. This means every product with "fragrance" or "Parfum" in the ingredients list is a different mixture.
In the US, the alternative name for parfum is 'fragrance'. The term 'fragrance' is not regulated in many countries. In many cases, it is up to the brand to define this term.
For instance, many brands choose to label themselves as "fragrance-free" because they are not using synthetic fragrances. However, their products may still contain ingredients such as essential oils that are considered a fragrance. One example is Calendula flower extract. Essential oil ingredients still impart a scent or 'fragrance'.
Depending on the blend, it can cause allergies and sensitivities on the skin. Some ingredients that are known EU allergens include linalool and citronellol.
Products use parfum often to give products a scent or cover up smells of different ingredients.
The bottom line is: not all fragrances/parfum/ingredients are created equally. If you are worried about fragrances, we recommend taking a closer look at an ingredient. And of course, we always recommend speaking with a professional.

Terrible!
It removes makeup but at what cost?! My skin was so red and stung after using these. Gave 1 star because I can't give 0.

Not the best for your skin
Makeup wipe removers aren’t actually very good for you because they can slowly irritate your skin, so I’ve stopped using them. This one though, actually clogged my pores. When I used to remove my makeup with these, I was left with a very greasy feeling on my face. It started to make my skin more oily, and then at some point my skin started to peel off in dry patches. I don’t have sensitive skin, in fact I try a lot of new occasionally. These also gave off a slight tingling sensation, which I’m aware most makeup wipes do, but the skin on my eyes felt like they were going to peel off. It left a greasy, but dry feeling after using. It also took like 3 wipes to remove my eye makeup. It’s not only these wipes too, you shouldn’t even be using makeup wipes at all (unless it’s what works for you) because they have very harsh chemicals, even the most “gentle” wipes can ruin the skin barrier over time. It’s also extremely bad for the environment. If you still use makeup wipes, I really recommend you to start using the double-cleansing method where you use an oil-based cleanser and then a water-based cleanser. If not, use micellar water with cotton rounds. Oil-based cleansers are meant to break down and melt your makeup off, and using a water-based cleanser afterwards will take off the oil and all that dirt your skin collected during the day. I hope this review helped some of y’all!!
