DIY Makeup Removers

Your out of town and forgot to pack your makeup remover, try these easy DIY solutions:


Oil Makeup Remover
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 tablespoon castor oil
- 1 tablespoon light olive oil
Add the oils into a clean container and mix well. Dip cotton balls or rounds into the oily mixture and remove your makeup on your face. Follow up with your favorite face cleanser and moisturizer.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil Makeup Remover
- Few drops of extra virgin olive oil
Add a few drops of extra virgin olive oil onto your clean hands and rub the oil in circular motions on your face and closed eyes. Follow up with your favorite face cleanser and moisturizer.

Baby Shampoo Makeup Remover
- Baby shampoo
Add a pump or two of baby shampoo into your hands and lather up with water. Gently wipe your face in circular motions and wash off with warm water. If your eye makeup is very heavy, you may want to use a bit of extra virgin olive oil before you wash your face to break up the makeup first.

Milk Makeup Remover
- Few drops of sweet almond oil
- 1 tablespoon of whole milk (organic if possible)
Dab the milk and oil mixture on your face with a cotton ball or round. Then remove the mix with another fresh piece of cotton. Be sure to rinse thoroughly with a face cleanser to remove any trace of milk on  your face.
