If you’ll ask any makeup lover that how much they have spent on buying their favourite highlighter, foundation, lipsticks etc , they might have actually lost the count but what about hoarding the product that removes all that from your face? People still believe that a simple face wash or cleanser can remove all the layers of foundation, setting powder and fixing spray which is not at all possible. If you can obsess over the 90th nude lipstick launched in the market then at the same time you must also invest in products which will help your skin to breathe like makeup removers. We understand that one who does makeup everyday might end up emptying a lot of makeup remover bottles and that’s why we have got a simple diy which is affordable and super easy to make.
MAKEUP REMOVER MISTAKES
Many drugstore makeup removers have all sorts of fragrances, alcohol and preservatives which can irritate your skin and create dry patches. While there are good ones like Sensibio H2O by Bioderma but that might be expensive for many people. Apart from this many of you might have seen people removing their makeup using coconut oil, which can work for some but Coconut oil is actually comedogenic in nature that is, it might clog your pores. There is no need to try something out just because it has become trendy at the stake of your skin. The fatty acids in coconut oil might breakdown your makeup but there is also a possibility that it might cause breakouts too as there are traces of the oil left behind in pores even after washing your face.
DIY MAKEUP REMOVER
JoJaba Oil- 2 tablespoon
Baby Shampoo- 1 tablespoon
Water (quantity depends on your container)
Airtight Glass Container
Cotton pads
Mix Jojoba Oil and Shampoo and add that water according to the container you wish to fill in. If your container is small reduce the quantity of jojoba oil and baby shampoo to half. You can either store this it in as it is or can put cotton pads in the container and then pour your mixture. This diy makeup remover can last up to 2 weeks if stored in a cool dry place. We have used Jojoba Oil because it neither clogs your pores nor irritate your skin. Jojoba Oil is the most underrated natural oil as it is rich in antioxidants and also balances the natural oils of your face without harming it in any which way. Another additional great tip is that you can put some pre soaked cotton pads and also add a bit of this makeup remover in a zip lock while you are travelling. It will not only save some space in your travel bag but will also keep you sorted when there’s a need to remove your makeup on the go.
