12 Non Toxic Face Wipes
While I don’t suggest using these everyday for your skin, sometimes you just need a lazy or on the go makeup removal option. Personally, I cannot use that often because the skin around my eyes is extremely sensitive.
Ingredients to Avoid in Face Wipes:
Fragrance - Since this one work can contain dozens of ingredients on it’s own its best to stay away. Especially when dealing with a sensitive area like the eyes.
PEGs - These are commonly contaminated with 1,4 dioxane
Parabens - preservatives that are known endocrine disruptors
Harsh Ingredients - Look for soothing ingredients like aloe and cucumber that will nourish and hydrate the skin instead of stripping it away. (Again, these should never be your first resort for face cleansing or removing makeup, but in a pinch they will do!)
