HERA MAKEUP REMOVER
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-21
What is this product?
A water-type point makeup remover built on silicone oils and a mild glucoside surfactant, with soothing and hyaluronic acid ingredients in the later half of the list. Strong one-touch and waterproof removal claims are not backed by disclosed testing, but the texture description fits the formula.
What makes it different?
The formula pairs water-first volatility (isododecane, caprylyl methicone, C9-12 alkane) with a single mild glucoside surfactant, giving lightweight cleansing without added fragrance or drying alcohol. Soothing and hydrating components, including allantoin at position 17, guaiazulene at 21, and five hyaluronic acid derivatives between positions 23 and 28, are concentrated in the later half. Concentrations and pH are not printed on the page checked here, and no test method or panel size is disclosed, so the cleansing performance claims rest on the formula alone.
