If you wear makeup, you may have noticed that simply washing your face doesn’t always result in completely clean skin.Wash your face as you typically would and pat dry. Then wipe your skin with a cotton pad that has been moistened with a few drops of toner or a skin essence. You may still see the remnants of your foundation, eye shadow, and even mascara on the pad. That isn’t a sign that you need to toss your facial cleanser for a harsher option, rather it may mean you need to start thinking of cleansing as a separate step from makeup removal.
#1: KEEP MAKEUP REMOVER WIPES BY YOUR BED
A few simple swipes of a makeup remover wipe can clean skin of foundation, concealer, and eye shadow. Plus, you get the satisfaction of seeing what has come off of your face on the wipe.
#2: SPEED CLEAN WITH MICELLAR WATER
Perhaps you’ve seen micellar water being touted by your favorite beauty bloggers or you’ve spotted it walking down the makeup aisle at your local drugstore. Either way, it’s time to get in on the micellar water trend. This makeup removing method not only cleanses skin, but can hydrate it, too.
#3: CONSIDER A CLEANSING OIL
Cleansing oils are a great option if you wear heavy eye makeup or have dry skin, since cleansing oil can help remove stubborn eyeliner and mascara without any rubbing or tugging. Apply a few drops to a cotton pad and dab it across your skin. Cleansing oil can be nourishing and less-harsh on dry skin—especially the delicate skin around your eyes.
#4: USE TONER AFTER CLEANSING
Toner can be used an extra cleansing step after using your rinse-off facial cleanser. It only takes a minute and it may help sweep away the remains of stubborn makeup. Simply saturate a cotton pad with a few drops and gently wipe it across your skin.
#5: WASH AWAY POLLUTION AND MAKEUP
By the end of the day, your skin can be coated with more than just dirt and oil. Pollution also comes into contact with your skin—especially if you live in a big city. And of course, you don’t want to catch shut eye with skin still covered in pollutants.
#6: DON’T MISS YOUR HAIRLINE
If you did a good job applying your foundation, it should go all the way to your hairline. So, don’t forget to remove your makeup from that area, too! You may get your roots a little wet, depending on your remover of choice, but it’s well worth it to be completely clean.
#7: PAY YOUR EYE AREA EXTRA ATTENTION
Eye makeup can be notoriously difficult to remove, which is why there are so many makeup removers meant specifically for removing those pesky (in terms of removal only) liquid eyeliners and long-lasting mascaras.
#8: REMEMBER TO REMOVE LIP COLOR
Your lip color may have mostly worn off by bedtime but that doesn’t mean you should skip using makeup remover on your lips. Of course, not every remove is safe to use on your lips.
#9: CLEAN UP WITH A COTTON SWAB
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try there seems to be a little bit of makeup left in hard to reach areas. A tiny bit of foundation around your nose or a smudge of eyeliner against your lash line.
#10: FOLLOW UP WITH MOISTURIZER
Whichever makeup and cleansing solutions you choose to use, it’s important to apply moisturizer afterwards. Don’t bother to dry off before completing this step, since it’s actually best to apply moisturizer directly to skin while it’s damp, as this can help lock in more hydration. Read More….
