Bioré Makeup Remover Review

I always prefer an oil-based makeup remover compared to cleansing balms and micellar waters. It's very straightforward. You just pump out what you need and use it. It frees you from using any cotton rounds and you don't have to pop any lids to use the product. 

I've tried using facial oils as a makeup remover but sometimes it's hard to actually remove them with a second cleanser. You need to rinse it off first so that your facial wash can do its thing. Some facial oils need to be rinsed off with warm water or wiped with a warm towel, though the latter can be very relaxing. But sometimes, we don't have time for that, do we? That's why a formulated cleansing oil is my go-to first step cleanser.

Time and again, I would still come back to Bioré Makeup Remover. I've tried other brands, even better, but they're hard to find in the Philippine market, worse, in the Davao market. Bioré is just so affordable and easy to find in your nearest Watsons. It does the job and even comparable to the ones I really like. I can't really find anything not to love from it.

Wondering About Human Heart Nature's Sunflower Beauty Oil and Sunflower Cleansing Oil

It's such a shame that I haven't updated other than joining a blog giveaway.  Yes, this and last month.  I was a little busy adjusting with my new job and tired to put up something.  Myged.  But anyway, I am still active and I'm working on updating something regarding with what I've used for the past not-so-active months.

Since, I have a new job, I have been using Blemish Balm (BB) cream everyday and I remove it with Human Heart Nature (HHN) Sunflower Beauty Oil.  The HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil undoubtedly removes BB cream and doesn't leave my skin oily after washing with HHN Balancing Face Wash.  But because of that, I'm running out of HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil.  I don't have the luxury to go to HHN Davao headquarters.  I can but I don't want to endure  heavy traffic, especially there's the newest opened mall near our office and there's the one year old new mall a few kilometers away on the same street.

Luckily, I have an office mate who is an HHN dealer. I decided to purchase an HHN Sunflower Cleansing Oil from her. I didn't receive it yet since I just ordered it from her last Friday.  Hopefully, I can receive it tomorrow or sometime this week. I can't wait to try it!

I can't help wondering, however, if HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil and HHN Sunflower Cleansing oil are just the same.  I checked their website for the ingredients and I found out that the HHN Sunflower Cleansing oil is made up of Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil and natural fragrance while the HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil is made of premium-grade Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil.  I also checked the comments part about it. HHN customer representative always stresses the difference with them. Let me quote the responses from different customers.

Our Sunflower Cleansing Oil is actually designed to cleanse your skin of dirt and makeup at the end of the day. However, we do recommend that you still wash, tone, and moisturize as usual after using it. :)
... the Sunflower Beauty Oil's formulation of premium-grade sunflower oil with a high linoleic acid content can help even out skin tone and lighten dark spots. Sunflower Beauty Oil is designed as a leave-on product and may be used all over the body, while the Cleansing Oil is designed to remove dirt and makeup on the face, after which it can be washed off with your usual facial wash. :) 
This (Sunflower Beauty Oil) is different from the Sunflower Beauty Oil, which is an all-around leave-on moisturizer. The Cleansing Oil is designed, on the other hand, to remove makeup and dirt on the face, then be followed up with your regular cleansing routine (wash, tone, then moisturize).

The HHN customer representative's responses are borderline sales talk and truth. It's not clearly stated if they are just the same or not since you can use the HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil as a make up remover aside from being a moisturizer. I've read from other blog reviews that they use HHN Sunflower Cleansing Oil as a hair leave-on moisturizer aside from being a cleansing oil.

I can say that HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil is a very flexible product. Like what I mentioned, I use it as a make-up remover. I also use it as a leave-on conditioner for my hair, a moisturizer for my dry areas, a spot remover for itch spots. If HHN Sunflower Cleansing Oil can do some, if not all, of the things that I use HHN Sunflower Beauty Oil for, then I can say I hit the jack pot!
