Nod if you can relate: You’ve had one of the longest Mondays, and as you slump over your desk nursing your bowl of leftovers, the last thing you want to do is drag yourself to the bathroom and wipe the day’s makeup and grime off your face. A full hour later, it still seems like an impossible task.
Enter makeup remover wipes. While some dislike these blissfully convenient sheets for the inevitable pulling and tugging, we think it comes down to the formulation. After all, if you have a cleansing wipe that’s truly up to the task, you should be able to get the job done in a few sweeping motions.
However, not all makeup wipes are created equal. Different skin types and concerns require different formulations, which is why Japanese beauty brand Bifesta has launched its renewed Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet to help you remove makeup effortlessly and cleanse your skin thoroughly while providing additional skin-caring benefits.
To find out just how effective the makeup wipes are, Daily Vanity invited 10 readers to give us their honest opinions about the different variants. Spoiler alert: the average verdict for the Micellar Cleansing Sheet was a 4.7-star rating out of 5!

My makeup came off really quickly and Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet is also very gentle. My skin felt clean yet supple after using it and I didn’t experience any reaction even though I have sensitive skin.

My skin felt really clean, smooth, and moisturised after use. It was so effective that I didn’t need multiple sheets just to remove all the makeup on my face.
After two weeks, my skin feels softer, more moisturised, and hydrated. They are so much better than the makeup removers I used in the past as they are able to remove my makeup effortlessly without having to tug very hard on my skin. Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet is a lifesaver!

Skin type: Normal, acne-prone
Skin concerns: Dull skin, uneven skin tone, visible/enlarged pores, acne, acne scars
I love the airtight cap on the Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet. I’ve tried makeup remover wipes from other brands and the sheets usually turn dry because the packaging doesn’t seal the moisture in properly. Also, each sheet is pretty large and moist!
My makeup was removed effortlessly and gently, it didn’t irritate or dry out my skin and my face felt clean after. After two weeks, my skin felt softer and more hydrated – even my skin texture felt smoother and more refined. My skin looks clearer and brighter now and it is a lot less congested than before.
Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet is definitely better than other ones I’ve used in the past. I’ve also tried the Bifesta’s Moist version as well as the Micellar Cleansing Water before and I would say they’re all pretty good! Bifesta’s products never fail me – they’re effective makeup removers that come in really affordable price points.
In fact, I always recommend Bifesta products to my friends! I find the cleansing sheets are a really effective way to remove makeup without drying or irritating the skin.
These sheets are also very suitable and convenient for travelling purposes, especially now with the loosening of the restrictions. I’ll probably find myself bringing the sheets along when I travel so I can cleanse my face conveniently overseas!
Maggie, 28
Skin type: Combination-oily, acne-prone
Skin concerns: Uneven skin tone, acne, acne scars
Before trying Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet, I was using other micellar wipes. They were effective but were on the drier side as each sheet wasn’t as saturated with micellar water.
What I like about Bifesta’s is its flip cap top that keeps the wipes moist. One sheet was able to remove makeup with minimal tugging and doesn’t leave a sticky residue, leaving me feeling refreshed. It effectively removes everything, including lipstick, eyeliner, and mascara.
It felt soft against my skin and didn’t leave it feeling dry or tight. These sheets have worked very well for my skin type and are definitely a step up from other makeup wipes. My skin is now less congested, with fewer clogged pores.
It is as effective as the Micellar Cleansing Water, which I’m already a fan of, because the wipes have an adequate amount of remover on them. Using the sheets just speeds up the removal process and is way faster and more convenient.

Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet comes in a good size, which allows me to take all my makeup off without needing another piece. The sheets feel so soft against my skin and are generously moistened, leaving my skin feeling light and cleansed after. Although they’re thinner than some other wipes I’ve used, they’re very effective!
My skin feels more hydrated after two weeks, and it definitely feels softer too. I appreciate the airtight cap that locks in the moisture as well. I really enjoyed using the wipes and I’ve incorporated it into my daily makeup removing routine when I get home after a long day!
The packaging ensures the wipes don’t dry out, and each wipe is well-sized to remove a full face of regular makeup. My skin feels hydrated after use with no sticky residue left behind. Overall, I really loved it!
Sherry, 26
Skin type: Combination-oily, acne-prone
Skin concerns: Visible/enlarged pores, acne, acne scars
With the previous makeup wipes I was using, I had to use two sheets to fully remove my makeup. But with Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet, I only needed one sheet to take all my makeup off.
The sheets feel soft against my skin and remove makeup effortlessly without tugging at my face. There isn’t a trace of stickiness left behind too.
After using the wipes for two weeks, my redness has reduced and my skin is less congested, with fewer clogged pores. I also like the airtight cap that helps to preserve moisture. Overall, it was a really pleasant experience!

I liked the packaging of Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet Perfect Clear as it was airtight. In the past, I often faced issues with makeup wipes drying out after I’d opened the packet.
The amount of micellar water was just right too, and my skin was moisturised and refreshed after the first use. The sheet felt cool to the touch, which is much appreciated in this hot weather. The sheet was very soft and did not tug at my skin, although it did leave a slightly greasy residue on my face. However, my skin feels hydrated.
I was able to remove my makeup quickly and effortlessly, including eye makeup. One sheet is big enough to take all my makeup off and I didn’t need another one.
After two weeks, my skin felt softer and more hydrated. My skin was also less congested with fewer clogged pores, so it worked very well for my skin type.
I’ve used Bifesta Micellar Cleansing Sheet for a variety of scenarios – removing heavier makeup for outings, removing WFH makeup, removing sunscreen, and they all worked well! These are much better than other makeup wipes I have used.
