At Nakin we sometimes get asked if cleansing milks are able to remove make-up, and generally they can. We cannot speak for every cleansing milk that is available, but for the most part one of the main jobs of a cleansing milk is to remove make-up. This is definitely true of our award-winning Nakin Advanced Cleansing Milk that is made to beautifully clear skin of daily grime, sunscreen, make-up and impurities. This comes from the natural plant-based formula filled with cleansing oils and extracts such as grape seed oil, sunflower oil, hyaluronic acid, seaweed and pomegranate extract. Such a nourishing formula means that skin also gets a lovely conditioning treatment, at the same time as being cleansed.

The lovely thing about cleansing milks is that the oil-based lotion formula is able to remove all types of grime. This includes makeup, sweat, SPF, pollution and daily dirt. The massaging action when applying the milk dislodges grime, and the oil-based lotion attracts make-up and impurities. They break down makeup and SPF plus help to deeply clean the face and neck, while being kind to skin at the same time. Cleansing milks are one of the gentlest types of facial cleansers that can be used. This is because a good cleansing milk like our Natural Anti-Ageing Cleansing Milk will be filled with lots of skin boosting ingredients that cleanse skin, while giving nourishment at the same time.

If you are unsure about using a cleansing milk to remove make-up, then there are some other options. One is make-up remover wipes; however, we do not recommend these as they tend to just move dirt around, instead of clearing deep down into pores. There are also micellar waters, but again we do not recommend these as they often contain strong cleansing ingredients that can be irritating, and we do not believe they should be left on the face and neck. Some of the more kinder options that we do recommend are really gentle face washes, or oil and balm facial cleansers. Oils and balms can be lovely cleansers but some of them are quite greasy on skin, so take care with this, especially for oilier and combination skin types.

We hope that you found our feature helpful explaining how cleansing milks remove make-up. Cleansing milks are one of our favourite types of facial cleansers and this is why we have them in our range of natural anti-ageing products. Cleansing milks remove make-up, sunscreen, sweat and daily grime, while being kind to skin at the same time. As well as being highly effective at removing all types of facial dirt they can also be really nurturing and hydrating. Cleansing is one of the most important parts of a facial routine as clear skin always looks so much fresher and healthier, plus is more readily able to utilise the actives applied afterwards in products such as serum, oil and face creams.
