I definitely have been and it's not fun knowing what damage has been done to my skin. I travel frequently for work and it’s necessary to know what skincare essentials I have to pack along! Makeup removers have always been my biggest headache as it's awfully cumbersome to lug around all sorts of different bottles of makeup removers (for eyes and face) plus cotton pads just to last through my entire trip. But good news! I think I may have found the perfect solution to this and would like to share it! :D *drumrolls*
Biore's Cleansing Oil Cotton Facial Sheets!
These bestselling makeup removers come in 3 different packages:
A 48-sheet tub and the eco-friendly refill packs...
& a travel size packet of 10 sheets...
Look how nice it is to have one of these pretty tubs sitting by your sink or makeup counter! Not only that, the sheets stay moist ALL the way till the very last piece ;)
My new travel buddy!
Biore’s travel packs are palm-sized, lightweight and almost as convenient as carrying a tissue packet. I’ve since started to pack them along for my monthly work trips. That way, I don’t have the burden of lugging my bottled removers along.
I also did a mini-experiment to test how fast & effective they’re in removing the following makeup: waterproof mascara, coloured eyeliner, long-lasting foundation, eyebrow pencil, lip colour and waterproof gel eyeliner!
The trick here is to hold the cotton sheet onto your skin for about five seconds, and in just ONE swift swipe, all the makeup will be effectively dissolved and removed!
I usually take two sheets to remove the entire gunk on my face; one for my face and the other one for my eyes. Removing my makeup has just gotten a whole easier! * woohoo*
I know you may just be wondering the secret behind these compact yet absolutely effective cotton sheets.
The answer to that - plenty of SMOOTH CLEANSING OIL in each sheet!
Just look at the comparison I’ve done between THEFACESHOP and Biore. Compared to the former, Biore’s cotton sheets seriously pack a punch. Each sheet is plentifully soaked with smooth cleansing oil that is gentle, alcohol-free and moisturising all at the same time. My skin feels fresh, clean and moisturised after removal. There also isn't the icky oily feeling after using the 2 sheets that I need!
My verdict
5/5 brushes!
They retail for $16.50 for the 48-sheet tub, $13.50 for a packet of refills, and $2.95 for the 10-sheet handy pack at all leading supermarkets, hypermarkets and pharmacies! Now there's definitely no reason for being caught in bad beauty situations ;)

Ooooh, and here's something I definitely need to share with all of you!! :D Fred & I finally ended our quest in search for the BEST tweezers in town. Check out the amount we've tried & tested before! Well, we gave the Tweezerman Slant Tweezers a shot because it's apparently an award-winning pair. It's distributed by Luxasia (thank you for bringing it in!!) and it's truly amazing in picking out stubborn stubs for Fred and the finer eyebrow bits for me. We got ours from Sephora, and I think they're also stocked in departmental stores like Tangs. A slight downside - it's $36 a pop!
And Christmas came early for me with RMK's gift package :D Really looove the RMK x Kate Spade Christmas Base Make Up Kit and it's so thoughful of the RMK team to send me some of their bestsellers to try out!
Okay last beauty bit, anyone knows where I can get DUP eyelid stickers from? I need to try them after hearing so much about them!

Hello velda, how often do u wash your makeup brushes? :)
hello can i know what are the clear aligners for? are they jus retainers or it is like invisilign?
Hi Vel, would love to see your reviews on SK2 Treatment Repair C. :)
Hello Vel! Any possible restocks for Charlize Shorts in Matte?!!
Hey vel!
You should also try Boot's facial wipes! It's cleanses and tones! I have super sensitive skin and its mild enough yet tough on those stubborn eyeliners! (:

interested to know what is the Clear-Aligners for too? did u put braces? :)
Hi Jennifer, I can ship some to you! Do email me at belluspuera@gmail.com if you need more help :)
Hi Jo! I use Shu Uemura's false lashes cos they can last a good 8 wears!
Hi CL, thank you for dropping by! :) I think both brands are great drugstore buys, and they all serve the same purpose of removing makeup efficiently. So it really boils down to whether you like water-based (bifesta) or oil-based (biore). Cos that's the only difference to me :) Oh and Bifesta does have a wider range of removers that are suited for different skin types too :)
As for Salon Vim, I trust that all the stylists there are professional enough to give you good advice on your hair colour! :D
thank you jaewhy! :)
hi ZZ :) size2 if i'm not wrong? and S for Kendra Biker Jacket!
nope it's the hotel room's
Hi CC, I'm wearing aligners to close up my bunny teeth! :D and the Bath&Body Works Moisturizer are from DFS t2! They stock them there!!
Hi Grace,
They have soooo many nice scents it's too hard to say which is my favourite. That's why I love that moisturizer to death :) I got them from t2 at Changi Airport, they stock them now :)
Hi Kathy, the main ones (for blush & foundation), I try to wash them once a fortnight. And the rest for eye shadows, I only wash them once a month!
They act like retainers to me cos I wore braces before and I'm just trying to close up my bunny teeth with invisaligns ;)
Hi XiuHui! Will definitely blog about it if it works ;)
Hey babe, I'm not sure of that just yet but I'll check! Do email me at velda@lovebonito.com if you have any queries :D
Thank you for the recommendation, Jo! :D
They act like retainers to me :) I wore braces before but didn't maintain them after having them removed and I'm trying to close up my bunny teeth with now with invisaligns ;)
Hi Vel,
Just wondering if you've got any liquid eyeliner recommendations for monolid girls like me with eyes that aren't both exactly alike? And any tips too if I choose not to put the double eyelid stickers too?
Thanks!!
