00:00Straight from the pages of Essence Magazine, I'm Marcia Castor, Beauty Editor, here to
00:05show you the fiercest products, the latest gadgets, and talk all things beauty.
00:10This is Beauty All Access.
00:15Hello everyone.
00:16So here at Beauty All Access, you're used to learning about makeup and how to put it
00:20on.
00:21Well today, we're going to learn about stripping down and taking it all off with makeup removers.
00:27Now, if you're like me, I'm guilty.
00:29I don't always take my makeup off at night before I go to bed, but you know it's the
00:33thing to do.
00:34So one of my favorite makeup removers is actually a wipe, and it's the Yes to Cucumbers line.
00:40And this one is a favorite around the office.
00:42They have Yes to Cucumbers and also Yes to Blueberry.
00:45Now, I'm showing you Yes to Cucumbers because it's great if you have sensitive skin.
00:50If you have any type of skin allergies, one little wipe they remind me of, wet ones from
00:56back in the day.
00:57Two, three wipes at the most.
01:00I'd say your makeup is clear.
01:02And we also like, it says right on here, 98% natural.
01:06My second favorite here is from, it's a black owned company actually.
01:11It's called Carrera.
01:12She's a celebrity makeup artist.
01:14She started her own line of makeup.
01:15And she came to visit us at the office one day and left us behind.
01:19And thank goodness she did.
01:20This one focuses straight on eyes.
01:23You saturate your cotton ball with it.
01:26Wipe it over your eyes.
01:27It takes off waterproof, long wearing makeup.
01:31It's perfect.
01:32It's ideal.
01:33And with the holidays, you may be putting a little extra sparkle on your eyes.
01:36You want the long wearing formulas.
01:38This will get it off easily.
01:40You can go to Carrera.com for that one.
01:43This may be a new name to you.
01:46And, acne prone skin.
01:48Proactive.
01:49So we know we can count on proactive.
01:50If you have sensitive skin, acne prone skin, oily skin.
01:56These wipes, and they're similar to the Yes To Cucumbers.
01:59The same concept.
02:01Let me just open this pack for you.
02:03So you can see.
02:05They're a little sudsier than the Yes To Cucumbers.
02:09But they don't leave behind any type of oily residue.
02:13You may want to do this.
02:15You don't need to rinse off with water.
02:17But you may feel like you want to splash your face with water afterwards.
02:19That's fine.
02:20But I would definitely recommend these if you're suffering from acne.
02:24And the next one here is from Urban Decay.
02:27It's Meltdown Makeup Remover.
02:29Now this is for your long wearing, waterproof, stubborn makeup.
02:34That we love when we're out at the club and out at the parties and all that.
02:37Because our makeup stays intact.
02:38It's when we get home and you're rubbing on your eyes trying to get it off.
02:41That's when it causes the problem.
02:43So this one I wanted to demonstrate.
02:45I have right here.
02:46This is a long wearing, waterproof eyeliner.
02:49So, this one is a cream.
02:51All we have to do.
02:54Put a little bit on.
02:57Put this back over here.
03:00Rub it.
03:01And you can actually see it start to break it down.
03:04Right on my skin here.
03:06See?
03:07The white cream has just turned turquoise blue, which is a hot color.
03:10But not on your hand and not when you get ready to go to bed.
03:13Then just grab your washcloth or a tissue and wipe it right off.
03:19It's gone.
03:20Now the last one.
03:21Some of us, you don't feel clean unless you have some suds in action.
03:24And this one will give it to you.
03:26This is Ramy.
03:27It's pure water.
03:28It comes in a few different scents.
03:30This one I chose was lavender.
03:32Because the lavender one, soothing, relaxing, has a wonderful scent.
03:36Great for calming before you go to bed.
03:38And it's a pump.
03:40So this one, almost like you're washing your face.
03:42Same way.
03:43Just gives you a nice little foam.
03:45Lather it up.
03:47Rub it on your face.
03:49Splash some water on.
03:50And you're done.
03:51So I hope between, let's see, we have the wipes.
03:54Easy.
03:55Put them by your bed.
03:56And they also come in a smaller pack that's good for on the go.
03:58So you can put in your handbag, maybe going from a work to evening event.
04:03Then you have Carrera for your eyes.
04:06Eye makeup remover.
04:07Proactive.
04:08Acne prone.
04:09For your stubborn, long-lasting makeup that we love but need to get it off.
04:14There's Urban Decay.
04:15And it gets a suds in, foaming action and a nice calming scent before you go to bed.
04:19Give yourself your own little spa moment.
04:22Even if it's just for four or five minutes, we have the Ramy.
04:26Everything you need to take off your makeup.
04:28It's a necessary step, ladies.
04:30Let's take it.
04:31These will make it easy.
04:32So ladies, now that all the makeup is removed, now it's time to get down and wash your face.
04:37And this right here is the Mercedes of skin cleansing tools.
04:42This is the Clarisonic Plus.
04:44And this one is sold exclusively at Nordstrom stores or Nordstrom.com.
04:49Dermatologists love this.
04:51Beauty editors love this.
04:53Everyday women that come up to us who have tried it, love it.
04:57Now this is a special edition.
04:59This one comes with three cleansing heads.
05:01There's one for your facial cleansing.
05:03We have another one to deep cleanse the pores.
05:06And then a third one, which is the bonus, to cleanse your body.
05:10And it's motorized and it really deep cleanses.
05:12And dermatologists love it because of the deep cleansing action.
05:15Yet the bristles are soft and it's gentle on your skin.
05:18But still gives you a slight, slight exfoliation.
05:22And this can be yours.
