1. Bioderma Sensibio H2O Cleansing and Make-Up Removing Solution
This is a cleansing water that can remove the toughest of makeup without being too harsh on your skin. That’s right; it’s totally water-based, but it still removes water-resistant and oil-based makeups. That’s the magic of Sensibio.
A space-age blend of dermatological micellar water and fatty acid esters work in harmony with your skin to remove makeup and pollutants without drying. You can even use it on your eyelids. It’s that gentle.

2. Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel
Hydrate your skin without the greasy feel. This water-based gel offers the best of both worlds. It goes on easy like a cream, it lasts a long time like a lotion, and it’s gentle on the skin like, pure, clear water.
In fact, no oil in this formula. Just skin-brightening, nourishing hydration. You can even wear it under your makeup to keep your skin hydrated all day and into the night.
