When it comes to eye makeup, how much attention do you really give it at the end of the day? Don't skip this crucial step in your daily routine – sleeping with eye makeup isn't good for skin care. Even if you wash your face regularly with a facial cleanser, if you leave mascara and eyeliner under your eyes, your eye makeup removal needs a makeover. The skin around your eyes is very sensitive, so it's important to use caution when removing your mascara, eyeliner, and eyeshadow. Are you ready to change the way you remove makeup? Keep reading to find out why it's so important to wipe off your eye makeup before bed and how to do it gently yet effectively.
Why you should remove your eye makeup before going to sleep
Of course it's always tempting to curl up under the covers after a long day without washing your face. But even if you don't have the energy for another part of your nighttime skincare routine, you should remove your makeup to avoid clogged pores, which can lead to breakouts. The good news is that removing your eye makeup properly is easy and doesn't take much time.
How do you remove eye makeup?
As we said, when it comes to removing your eye makeup, being gentle is key. Take micellar water, a cleanser that is popular worldwide – and for good reason. Micellar water is powered by tiny micelle oil molecules – suspended in water. These molecules act like a magnet to remove dirt, oil and make-up residue on and off the skin. In short, micellar water is a lazy girl's dream:no rinsing or hard rubbing is required!
How do you remove eye makeup with makeup wipes? In addition to micellar water, makeup remover wipes are a great, easy option for removing stubborn eye makeup. Workout at night? Toss a pack in your bag so you can wipe it all away before hitting the gym! Too tired to go to the bathroom before bed? Keep a pack on your nightstand for easy access! Like micellar water, no rinsing is necessary, so even if you've had a late night, no excuses! Remember to reseal the package to prevent the remaining towels from drying out.
What to do after removing your eye makeup
We get it:Some nights you'll just be too tired to do anything after you remove your makeup. But it's important to establish a daily evening beauty routine if you want to keep your skin happy. If you want to experience the dual skincare line, try a rinse after removing your eye makeup. Take a cleanser that won't make your skin too dry. Then put on an eye cream for hydration.
