My Sister and I Have Totally Different Skin Types. We’ve Still Used the Same Makeup Remover for 10 Years.

Wait 5 sec.

Some of my fondest childhood memories took place in the bathroom.When we were growing up, my sister and I shared a bathroom. It’s where we’d bookend our days together, laughing through foamy, toothpaste-laden mouths and scrubbing our way through our skin-care routines. Our sink was always littered with cleansers, serums, and moisturizers, but our skin couldn’t be more different, even to this day.She’s now in her late 20s, and I’m in my mid-30s. I’ve got dry skin, am prone to hormonal acne, and live in New York City, where pollution and congested skin are concerns. My sister has oily/combination, acne-prone skin, and she lives in humid, tropical Mumbai.Yet despite our different skin types, climates, and lifestyles, we’ve both used the same makeup remover for a decade: Farmacy’s Green Clean Cleansing Balm. So I was thrilled when it was recently dubbed one of our top picks for the best makeup removers.Top pickA cushiony balm, with honey-vanilla and fragrance-free optionsFarmacy Green Clean Fragrance-Free Cleansing BalmThis hydrating, silky makeup remover includes papaya, moringa, and sunflower seed oil, and it removes waterproof makeup.$39 from Amazon(3.4 ounces)
