6 Inexpensive Cosmetics Chosen By the Pros
6. Bifesta — Uruochi Water Cleansing Lotion (Moist)
The extremely popular Uruochi Water Cleansing Lotion is a bargain! This is a lotion-type cleanser made using the original cleansing ingredients of lotion, so you don't have to wash it off after removing your makeup. Just wiping your skin gently with a cotton pad soaked in the lotion is enough to thoroughly remove heavy eye makeup and old keratin, which causes blemishes and discoloration. The hyaluronic acid adheres to the skin to provide high-quality moisture, so it becomes even more translucent every time you use this product.

3. Minon — Amino Moist / Purupuru Shittori Hada Mask
Because this mask goes directly on your skin, it uses a soft non-irritant fiber sheet. This sheet mask feels nice and gentle, even on sensitive skin. Its amino acids instantly hydrate skin for which daily moisturizing is not enough.
The sheet, soaked in concentrated gel, is slightly larger than the standard size, which makes it not only a great deal, but also allows it to adhere to the skin perfectly, making it harder to come off and preventing the discomfort of having the mask dry up and separate from the skin.
