Makeup is an everyday part of a woman’s life. Whether the occasion is big or small, a foundation, eyeliner, mascara and lipstick are a must. At the end of any day, the makeup has to be removed, and most prefer artificial removers from the store. They may seem easily available, but are they safe? They feature chemicals with fancy names like sorbic acid, polyethylene, isopropyl palmitate, titanium dioxide, methylparaben and such.
Best Natural Ingredients To Remove Makeup:
Getting these ingredients ready and using them takes no time at all. It does not even take you the effort of a trip to the store. Here are the best natural ingredients for safe makeup removal.1. Jojoba Oil:
Jojoba oil is not really oil, but a liquid wax ester prepared from jojoba seeds. It closely resembles our own sebum. For this reason, those with oily skin can trust jojoba oil to cleanse makeup without clogging the pores. The oil makes the pores breathe as it dissolves the excess sebum. Store a can of jojoba oil mixed with a little vitamin E oil for an antioxidant effect.- Before you are removing the makeup, take a spoonful of jojoba oil mixture from the stored can
- Apply all over your face
- Using your fingers, gently massage the oil in circular motions
- Give special attention to the eyes
- Now, slowly wipe the oil away with a damp cloth or cotton pad
- After you have removed the makeup, you can wash your face
2. Olive Oil:
Prepare your olive oil makeup remover by mixing olive oil and a little tea tree oil. Add a few drops of almond oil to the mix. It keeps the skin nourished and cures under eye circles too.- Take a small amount of the remover into your hands
- Apply it to your face and use your fingers to massage it lightly
- Now, wipe your face with a cotton pad with upward strokes until the oil is completely removed
- You can repeat the process for cleaner skin
