Does anyone else do this? Olive oil is quite the miracle product, and makes a great makeup remover, even for the toughest of pigments. It's a pretty well known secret. wink I'm afraid of chemical makeup removers; I used one, and it killed my skin. I've heard stories of the storage bins corroding and having to be replaced annually... I don't want that going anywhere near my eyes. eek Also, expensive.

There are tons of variations of natural eye makeup remover... I think Olive Oil, Vaseline, and Baby Oil are some of the most common. I've used all of them but I find the olive oil easier to work with; plus, the later items can clog your tear ducts if you're not careful. It strips everything off, conditions my lashes/brows, moisturizes the eye area, basically, the only con is that it's a little messy. I then cleanse the oil and streaked pigment off and continue skincare as usual.

Do you use a store-bought makeup remover or a natural alternative?

I used to use just whatever I grabbed first when I ran out, I've stopped using it altogether. Once I got the soap that I currently use, and have been for like the last year, I haven't needed to use anything else. I first used both, but even after the remover there was still a bit left. The soap alone was enough to remove it all, so I just cut it out to save cash.

I have some makeup wipes from I Believe Netruagena but I don't dig them to much stare
The smell gives me a gross headache so It kind of discourages me from just playing around and doing different makeup looks.
I'm trying to find what I plan on using (when I some day have clients sweatdrop lol) to clean faces before I do people's makeup that will work on nearly every skin type and not break them out or irritate or offend someone with smell confused . Also trying to figure out what I can use for a makeup remover for clients as well as myself.
I don't know how people would respond to me coming with a bottle of virgin olive oil like "Come on Bitches rofl "
Well not exactly like that but yeah sweatdrop

Ps. Sleep deprive will make you say things like above gonk

I use it as a makeup remover all the time. I also use it to add some moisturizer at night sine it works better then in lotion I've ever used. I just ]use it at night and it make my face so smooth.
