When I reflect on my shopping habits, I can confuse myself sometimes. I buy so much makeup that is long-lasting, kiss-proof, and sweat-proof, and then I spend so much time struggling to scrub it all off at the end of the night. I have such sensitive skin, so I really don't want to overdo it with the makeup removal. I need products that are effective, but not harsh. 

If this scenario sounds familiar, I've rounded up a list of makeup removers with my personal picks, top discounts right now, and even some celeb finds with recommendations from Olivia Culpo, Chlöe Bailey, Paige DeSorbo, Kenya Moore, Teresa Giudice, Gizelle Bryant, Lindsey Vonn, Alexia Nepola, Hayley Kiyoko, Becca Tilley, Emma Slater and La La Anthony

Whether you're looking for makeup remover wipes, cleansing balms, cleansing oils, or soap-free washcloths, I've got you covered with some extensive research on some affordable finds. 

Makeup Remover Wipes

• The E! Editor Pick: Clean Skin Club XL Premium Face Wipes ($10)
• The Celebrity Pick: Neutrogena Cleansing Fragrance Free Makeup Remover Face Wipes ($14 $10)

When I have access to a sink, I always wash my face with cleanser and a washcloth. However, when I don't have that option, I love these wipes. I have THE most reactive skin and these clean my face without irritation or redness. I also love that the wipes are HUGE. I only need one wipe to get my face and neck clean and refreshed. Aside from makeup removal, I've been using these post-workout for about 9 months and my skin has been under control and looking great.

Neutrogena's face wipes are a true classic— an affordable find that truly comes through. Olivia Culpo told E!, "It's a holy grail product for me. I love the Neutrogena wipes. I feel like they're the only thing that really helps me know for sure that I definitely got all of the makeup off."

La La Anthony said, "Hands-down, these are a necessity. I use them all the time while on set and in my day-to-day life. They take off all my makeup and keep my skin feeling clean and hydrated. Truly a game-changer."

"Coconut oil plus my Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes is the best combo to remove my makeup," Chlöe Bailey said.

This oil cleanser melts my sunscreen and makeup off with ease (without scrubbing). I also love it for removing clay masks quickly (I loathe scrubbing). I double cleanse, starting with this oil cleanser and my typically oily skin is under control now. Gently taking off makeup is critical to maintaining great skin and combating my oily tendencies.
