How to remove make up properly
You will need: Eye cleanser, facial cleanser, cotton pads, towels, moisturiser, toner and cleansing wipes
1. Make up should be removed from everywhere it was applied from. Review and think back on the process when it was applied.
2. Choose a cleanser. Soap can dry your skin and be harsh on the eyes. Your cleanser should suit your skin. Experiment till you find a cleanser which suits you. For the eyes, use a specific eye cleanser to protect your eye area which is most delicate.
3. Start with the lipstick or areas with heaviest makeup. Wipe with a cotton pad from lip line towards the centre of the mouth.
4. Clean eyes carefully. Remove mascara and eye shadow from the lid of the eyes. Place a little cleanser on a cotton pad and close eyes. Carefully run downwards and then upwards on lashes. This removes mascara from top of eye lids. Try not to stretch the delicate skin area around the eyes. Take a fresh cotton pad with some eye cleanser and rub along the lid outwards along the hair line.
5. Clean rest of the face using a general cleanser or facial wash on a cotton pad.
6. Toner. Place a little toner on a cotton pad and run across skin to remove the cleanser more easily.
7. Rinse your face with clean water and pat your face dry.
8. Consider using a cleansing wipe if you’re in a rush (Optional).
9. Moisturise your face.
