Alternative to Baby Wipes {Your Opinion}

So, today, my question is a little different. The thing is that after I use oil on my face to remove my sunscreen, I wipe it off using Baby Wipes. I am using Himalaya Baby Wipes till now but I am thinking that it probably is a little expensive and if there is an alternative to the whole process of removing the sunscreen from the face before going for the face wash. 

The thing is I don't want to use cotton as it is a little harsh on the skin and feels rough while wiping off the oil. So, gals, do you have any ideas?? Or, may be you can tell me how you wipe off the cleansing milk from your face??? Anything natural would be even more appreciable. I don't want to use a wash cloth because then I will get an extra work of cleaning the wash cloth properly. So, looking forward to your opinions on the same :)

  1. Still trying to figure out answer for ur question.
    I use either olive oil or cleansing milk. Yup, cleansing milk takes a lot of time to clear

    1. actually yes, there are many makeup removers in the market so you can choose one of them or you can simply go for almond oil to remove the sunscreen / makeup. check out the first link in the above post. it talks about double cleansing. after removing the makeup, you can simply use face wash to remove the residue. or, I am putting the link here: http://perfectskincareforyou.blogspot.in/2010/09/double-cleansing-to-get-rid-of-makeup.html
      hope this helps :)

  5. hey.. try revlon makeup remover.. its cheap and does its job good with jus little quantity... it doesnt sting and followed by face wash leaves the skin soft n fresh...

    u can pick up a normal dry tissue paper.. soak it with ur makeup remover or cleanser.. leave it for a minute or so.. once the product is absorbed multi-fold the tissue and try using this as a wipe... the tissue doesnt tear too this way and cheaper too...

    i use clarus wet wipes when i m totally lazy or tired to follow my cleansing routine.. hope this helps..

    also.. do himalaya baby wipes sting the eyes?

    1. hey Revathy...thanks a lot for this!!! I shall definitely give this a try. as for the Himalaya wipes, no, they don't sting the eyes. in fact they remove the kohl and eye shadow without any help at all so I really like it :)
