Meet the Face Halo. A small round sponge that can remove all your makeup (with minimal effort) using just a little water. Sounds a hell of a lot easier than that double cleanse you've been promising yourself you'll start doing (just me?)

So what kind of sorcery is this? According to the brand, Face Halo has 'HaloTech fibre strands', which are apparently 100 times finer than a human hair. These micro strands "reach deep into your pores to remove and trap makeup, giving your skin a healthy and invigorating clean in half the time."
