My Sundays are usually makeup-free but tonight is different because I had to take photos for this product review post. It was fun and actually, it made me realize how I missed doing a not-so-everyday kind of look. Check out some of my snaps to see how giddy I was (chixylove). Haha!
Soooo, onto today's featured product!
This has been with me since November but since I don't do full face makeup that often (except when I'm filming) I haven't thought of using it very frequently. I've tried it two times before and my feelings about it haven't changed. Let me say it now.
It's amazing!

The product is made by Banila Co and it is called Clean It Zero. It retails locally at 875 php, which in my opinion, is a reasonable price point because you get a huge tub and one tiny amount goes a long way. This can last up to months even if you are a heavy makeup wearer.
It's basically a cleansing product in a balm/sorbet form but works very similarly with typical cleansing oils. From tallow-like appearance, it will eventually melt down into grease as you massage it on your skin.
It comes with a spatula (very important because you don't want to get your makeup in the tub) and a lid which also serves as a holder.
Using cleansing products like oil and balm types tends to be messy and uncomfortable but surely, you'd get used to it eventually. However, this one is slightly more convenient because you don't have to worry about the oil dripping on your face or arms.
Clean It Zero is also travel-friendly.
Imagine the hassle of bringing oil-based and even liquid products! I hate it when they spill and cause a havoc in my bag.
Although, you still have to be careful because with intense heat, this might melt and the oil will likely spill. #chemistryguys :)
It doesn't have a strong scent which I appreciate. There's like a soap-ish fragrance and I'd prefer that over fatty/grease smell.
This also comes in other variants (different colors too). There's one for each skin type and this pink baby is for normal and combination.
Earlier, I applied waterproof eyeliner and mascara plus, a very bold lipstick so I could really put this product to test.
Makeup meltdown!!!
When it comes to its cleansing power, no doubt, it's indeed impressive. It just freaking WORKS! No wonder why it's loved by so many!
It breaks down even the most stubborn eye makeup very well. I haven't tried this though on liquid lipsticks.
No trace of makeup left!
I didn't even put a lot of effort as I massaged it all over. No need for me to use a cotton swab and rub it on the lashes to get rid of mascara and eyeliner. And mind you, that's the hardest part to clean.
What I love about it the most is that, it doesn't only work as a makeup remover. It also gives the skin some TLC while it cleanses.
It contains papaya extract and some other good stuff that exfoliate the skin and give brightening effect.
So I guess, even though I don't have too much makeup on, I would use it more often from now on just to get those skin benefits!
In case you're not familiar with double cleansing, let me just mention that you still need to wash your face with your cleanser after.
Like I said, I'm really amazed by this product. I believe you should try it if you haven't already.
