How to Remove Majolica Majorca Painlessly!




Eureka! I found a nice and painless solution on how to remove the Majolica Majorca mascara. I just experimented with my cleansing oil and it is a no brainer method actually, I’m just too excited to share it with you girls. =p

Before taking a shower, I usually do not remove my make-up first; I just remove it after because warm water and steam would melt the formula so it would not be such a pain to remove even waterproof mascara. With Majolica Majorca, this warm water and steam method does not work and I have to use cleansing oil to rub my eyes.

My peepers are happy about this!

Tonight though, I revised my “ritual”. I placed a bit of Kose cleansing oil on my tiny fingertip and swipe the oil on my lashes in the direction you would usually do when applying mascara. I prefer using my fingertip but if you would like to use a spoolie that is okay too. I just find using a spoolie eats up more oil and it goes wasted. I just coat my lashes with a thin film of cleansing oil and I continue my warm water and steam method. Eureka! When I step out of the shower I am very happy to see a pair of raccoon eyes in the mirror, haha! When I examined my lashes the mascara formula is almost gone so I just have to remove my eye shadow which is not much of a pain to do.

I prefer this method because first it is very painless and it lessens the deepening of my fine lines, second when I coat my lashes with cleansing oil, it does not usually go straight to my eyes so chances of the oil emulsifying in your eyes is also diminished.
I’m going to do this from now on! =)

Kose Junkisei Prime Oil Cleansing





I bought this when I was in Taiwan and I forgot how much it costs; I bought this in Watson's in Taipei 101 along with my L'oreal blushes and Fasio colored mascaras.

What Kose says:
KOSE Junkisei Prime Oil Cleansing is an oil type cleanser that penetrates deep down into the pore to grab dirt, oil, and make-up while restoring the natural moisture of the skin for cleaner, softer, smoother, and more youthful skin. Emollient contains tea oil and rosehip oil to make your skin smooth and moist. You will see visibly improved skin with continued use.


herbal green scent.
180ml







My Review:
This is my first cleansing oil and a little goes a long way; I'm not even halfway through this bottle as you can see on the picture. What I like about this is that when I pour a bit of this on a cotton swab, it removes make-up in one swipe and it has a minty herbal scent which is rejuvenating especially at the end of the day when I’m tired. It removes my Shu Uemura drawing pencil in one swipe and it removes Majolica Majorca mascara in a few swipes.

At first I didn't really like this product because it feels like cooking oil on my skin and it goes to my eyes and emulsifies. Sometimes my eye sight becomes whitish and I did not want to risk having eye damages; no matter how good we take care of our skin we should also take extra care for our eyes. The pump nozzle is also defective because it leaks! So imagine the whole bottle covered in oil!

However when I was running out of L’oreal Gentle Lip and Eye make-up remover, I gave this another shot because I do not want any of my beauty product to go to waste and I work on what I have. Guess what? It works! Now what I do is I pour a bit on the cotton swab and massage this on my face, I wash this off with warm water so the oil will melt away but warm water would not remove all of the oiliness I feel so I use Cetaphil and massage it on my face to further remove the oil and it will feel squeaky clean and yet at the same time it’s soft and supple. 


This is perfect for me especially for the -Ber months to come as I tend to have dry flaky skin on this season and it adds moisture to my skin cleansing regimen.
