Cosmetic surgeon shows how make-up wipes don't work using orange skin 

A leading cosmetic doctor says make-up removal wipes don’t cleanse facial skin properly, showcasing his argument using liquid foundation on the skin of a tangerine. 

Dr Tijion Esho, who has two clinics in the UK and one in Dubai, posted a video showing him applying liquid foundation to the citrus fruit’s peel before trying to take off the make-up with facial cleansing wipes. 

The results showed the pores of the tangerine peel had clearly absorbed some of the make-up, with Dr Esho saying skin reacts in a similar way.
