Tip: DIY Makeup Remover

January 9, 2013

[break]
I have been wearing more eyeliner and mascara lately and found my store bought makeup remover just wasn’t cutting it. I found so many homemade makeup remover recipes on the Internet and messed about until I had the perfect formula for me. Olive oil is just amazing, it works well and leaves you nicely moisturised. You can reduce the amount of oil if you feel it’s too greasy but I find that the oil is what shifts the makeup, especially waterproof makeup. This is the best makeup remover I’ve ever used!

  • 100ml water
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp no tears baby shampoo
Pour into a small container. Shake well before pouring a little onto a cotton wool pad. I prefer to use a fragrance free baby wipe.

Gently press the pad or wipe to your eye for a minute. I find this helps soften the mascara, so it comes away cleanly without pulling out eyelashes. Gently wipe away your makeup!

Don’t forget to check out my post on cleaning makeup brushes & hair brushes. What do you use to take off your makeup? Would you give this recipe a try? If you do give it a go, I’d love to hear what you think, so either leave a comment or visit me on Facebook xxxx
