As we prepare for next week’s holiday travel, we’re stocking our Dopp kits with the essentials. Among them, we’ll be packing what is now considered the phone, keys, and wallet of travel beauty products: makeup wipes. Coming to the rescue on planes, camping trips, and in times of jet-lag exhaustion, they are the disposable, effortless, water-free stand-ins for our favorite cleansers. But until now, they’ve always been just that—a runner-up to our actual skincare routine.
Makeup artist and natural beauty guru Rose-Marie Swift’s latest contribution to the product category will make you reconsider. After decades of employing chemically driven wipes on her model clients, Swift grew weary of their downsides. “I [had] to rub too much to get makeup off,” she says, adding that most formulas were ultimately drying to the skin and eyelashes. In search of something “easier and more effective,” she’s now adding The Ultimate Makeup Remover Wipe to her collection of cultish makeup and skincare.
Harnessing the same star ingredient found in her best-selling balm cleanser—100 percent organic raw coconut oil— the individually wrapped wipes boast a game-changing ability to seemingly melt off your foundation, mascara, liner, and lipstick in one compostable cloth, no violent rubbing required. What’s left is a layer of hydration so soothing it renders further moisturizing unnecessary.
As the sole ingredient in each wipe, coconut oil delivers a concentrated source of anti-fungal and antibacterial lauric and caprylic acids, which reduce breakouts while leaving skin with a healthy sheen. Doubling as a multitasking cloth for hands and any dry patches, it may be the perfect in-flight remedy, leaving skin as primed and ready for a fresh face of makeup before landing as it is for a replenishing night’s sleep. Consider your bag packed.
