How to get rid of eye makeup?

Some women don’t really care about removing eye makeup. We washed ourselves with soap, yes, okay! But if makeup is not completely removed or improperly removed, the chemicals it contains can irritate the sensitive skin around the eyes, leading to swelling, bruising and wrinkles.

Let’s talk about reliable folk remedies for removing eye makeup.

Apply a glass of natural yogurt to your face, leave for 10 minutes, then remove with a cotton pad slightly moistened with water.

This is a great way for all skin types.

Preparing such a product is a snap: just mix one spoonful of natural yogurt with one spoonful of lemon juice.

Apply to face, neck and décolleté as it will help not only remove makeup, but also exfoliate dead skin cells and refresh skin. Leave it on for a few minutes and then remove it with a cotton swab moistened with warm water.

1. Lemon Potato Makeup Remover.

Mix 1 tablespoon of potato juice with 3-4 drops of lemon juice, and remove makeup with the resulting lotion. This product will not only remove make-up, but also refresh the skin of the face, as well as help get rid of dark circles under the eyes.

Heat a few spoons of milk and dip a cotton ball in the milk. Apply lightly to the skin, paying attention to the areas of the face that have taken a lot of makeup (such as the eyes). In these places, lightly press on the cotton pad, but not three too hard, so as not to cause irritation and pain. Remember to rinse off the milk thoroughly after the procedure.

Vaseline is great for removing powder and eyeliner because the oils it contains are great for dissolving these cosmetics.

Apply a little petroleum jelly (just a little!) On a handkerchief, soft napkin or cotton pad and gently sweep over your face in those areas where you applied makeup. Since petroleum jelly is quite thick and greasy in texture, wash it off thoroughly with warm or hot water, if necessary with the addition of soap.

Honey, with its endless list of beneficial properties, will also help us cleanse the skin.

Soak a terry cloth in warm water and drop half a tablespoon of honey on it, and sprinkle with baking soda on top. With this honey towel, gently massage your face. Honey will perfectly remove all even heavily pigmented makeup, and baking soda will add the effect of a light scrub. Then wash your face with warm water. Honey perfectly moisturizes, nourishes and softens your skin.

Ideal for women with dry skin. Just apply a few drops of olive oil to your face and massage it with light finger movements.

Rinse off with warm water. If after that your face is too oily with oil, wash again with soap. Olive oil is considered an excellent eye makeup remover because it does not irritate this delicate and sensitive area.

1. Hazelnut (hazelnut) oil

Suitable for women with oily skin. Hazelnut oil will not damage the skin or make it more oily, but will have the exact opposite effect. It is recommended to apply on the face in the same way as with olive oil.

1. Chamomile and olive oil.

Prepare an infusion of chamomile flowers.

Soak a cotton swab in the chamomile infusion and add a few drops of olive oil to it. Apply this product to your face, paying special attention to the area around your eyes. This product is great for treating the sensitive area around the eyes, as well as soothes bloated eyelids and reduces bags under the eyes.

1. Green tea and rice milk

Green tea is rich in antioxidants, and we can enjoy them not only while drinking, but also by applying it to the skin.

Brew green tea and add half a cup of rice milk to a cup of tea. Let the mixture cool. When it reaches room temperature, apply it to your face with cotton pads to remove makeup.

To make a strawberry makeup remover, you will need 5 large berries and 3 tablespoons of natural yogurt.

Mash the strawberries in a bowl, add the yogurt and stir well until a smooth, thick mass is formed. For convenience, you can mix these ingredients in a mixer, then it will turn out faster. Apply this product to your face in a circular motion and leave it on for a few minutes. After that, thoroughly rinse off the mask and once again “walk” over the skin of the face with a cotton swab dipped in warm water to remove possible makeup residues.

An effective product that removes cosmetics while cleansing and normalizing oily acne prone skin is obtained from cucumber and milk.

To do this, chop the peeled cucumber and boil it in 100-150 g of milk for about 10 minutes. When the resulting product has cooled, gently wipe the skin with it.

First, prepare the infusion of cornflowers – pour 1 tablespoon of cornflower flowers with a glass of boiling water, leave to infuse for 30 minutes. Now add 10 ml of castor oil and 20 ml of almond oil to 20 ml of cornflower infusion.

Store this makeup remover in the refrigerator for no more than two weeks. Shake the bottle well before removing makeup so that all the ingredients are mixed.

The now popular Japanese oil wash will also help remove makeup from the eyes. The essence of washing is that a small amount of oil is first applied to the entire face. All impurities are removed with a circular massage with a cotton pad. Then the face is washed with a large amount of foam or mousse, and after that a moisturizing lotion is applied. Thus, absolutely all makeup is removed.
