OUR TOP 5 NON-WIPE CLEANSERS

Bid goodbye to wet wipes with our cleansing best buys

OUR TOP 5 NON-WIPE CLEANSERS

Fast, easy-to-use, and convenient: wet wipes are a staple of most bathrooms up and down the UK. But recently a backlash has begun which looks set to consign these handy make-up removers to the dustbin of history. Why? Well, these non-biodegradable plastic towelettes clog up our sewers, as many are wrongly labelled as ‘flushable’. They cling together to help create giant ‘fatbergs’ that are silently forming inside underground pipes like plaque in arteries, destroying the health of the planet. Eeeek! So, it’s no surprise that the government is looking to phase out wet wipes along with other single-use plastics. Luckily, there are plenty of non-wipe cleansers that are better for mother nature, and your face. Check out our top five best buys to convert you before it’s too late!

1. PREVISE HYDRATING SKIN CLEANSER, £32

If you have sensitive skin, look no further than this soothing cleanser from Previse. It removes dirt, dead skin cells and make-up without stripping essential oils from your skin to help you stay hydrated and glowing. The cleanser is also free from sulphates and fragrance, creating a mild yet effective formula that you simply massage into your face for a couple of minutes each day. Rinse it off and voilà – radiant skin all day! If that wasn't enough, it's also vegan and cruelty-free.

2. SISTER & CO. TRUE CLEANSE OIL, £30

Melt away all traces of make-up, dirt and impurities with this blend of organic oils from Sister & Co. The cold-pressed apricot, jojoba and grape oils combined with rose otto and frankincense leave your skin feeling hydrated and dewy – especially when the cleanser is washed away with help from the organic cotton cloth included with the product! We reckon Sister & Co. will become one of your favourites – True Cleanse Oil is 100% natural, vegan and organic, so it's worth your investment.

3. AURELIA MIRACLE CLEANSER, £42

Calling all fans of creamy cleansers! The award-winning Aurelia Miracle Cleanser is sure to wow – it glides easily onto the skin, lifting all impurities and leaving skin bright and glowing. The product comes with a soft bamboo muslin cloth to help exfoliate, too. For an extra boost of moisture, why not leave the cleanser on for five to 10 minutes and cover with the warmed cloth? We guarantee you won't be able to stop stroking your newly soft, supple skin!

4. ARK SKINCARE PRE CLEANSE & MAKE-UP REMOVER, £30

This formula is ideal as the first step in your cleansing routine – the multi-fruit lipid blend is packed with omegas 3, 6 and 9, and dissolves daily grime, excess sebum and even waterproof mascara. Vegan-friendly, natural and nourishing, the cleanser soothes sensitive skin and improves hydration, too. Just a handy tip – this is best applied to dry skin! Massage it gently before rinsing it off with warm water. Follow it up with another cleanser if you like, once every last bit of make-up has disappeared.

5. TROPIC SMOOTHING CLEANSER, £16

We're always impressed by the exotic offerings from Tropic Skincare, and this gorgeous cleanser is no exception. Treat your skin to the luxurious blend of eucalyptus, avocado and jojoba oils while melting away make-up and impurities. The cleanser also comes with an antibacterial face cloth made from organic, sustainable bamboo fibres to help get rid of every last trace of make-up. Again, this formula should be used on dry skin – simply massage a few pumps into your face morning and night before using the dampened cloth.
