Removing Make Up

Just as you need to put on fresh make up every day, you also need to remove your make up every day.  Leaving make up on will mess up your sheets and pillowcases.  But more than that, it will increase the chances of clogged pores.  So, give your face a chance to breathe every night by washing away make up and oil build-up.   Here’s a quick way to remove your make up:

1. Pull your hair out of your face. 
2. Apply a dab of eye makeup remover to a cotton ball.  Gently rub it over each eyelid. 
3. Add a little warm water to your face.  Then lather on a gentle facial cleanser. (Cetaphil is an excellent product to use for this.)   
4. Rinse with lukewarm water. 
5. Pat your face dry with a towel.  Apply a moisturizer. 

In addition to the steps above, here are some additional make up removal tips to keep in mind:

• Never wash with soap, it dries the skin too much. 

• Do use a cleansing lotion.

• You may want to use a toner after cleansing the face.  It will help remove any make up you missed and help close your pores.
