Hello!

Contrary to appearances, eye makeup removal is a very difficult task. During the procedure, the makeup should be washed away and the sensitive skin of the eyelids and eyelashes should not be damaged. How to do it? Read my text and you will learn step by step how to wash off the colour cosmetics.

Eye makeup removal – you cannot forget about it

Eyes and the skin around them are very sensitive and susceptible to damage. Irritations can be caused by even the smallest impurities, not to mention an improperly removed makeup. The remains of eyeshadows, eyeliner or mascara can cause serious infections of the eye and increase eyelash loss. Therefore, you must remember that a proper makeup removal will not only protect you from irritations but also provide the skin and lashes with various nutrients.

Eye makeup removal step by step 

1. Wash your hands. Bear in mind that you cannot touch your face and especially the skin around the eyes with dirty hands. Such action can cause infections, for instance, conjunctivitis.
2. Soak a cotton pad in a makeup remover and press gently to the eye. Wait a short while for the liquid to dissolve your makeup. Remember not to rub the skin! This way you could only cause irritation and weaken eyelashes.
3. If you wish to get rid of mascara, make sure to do it gently, also with the use of a soaked cotton pad. This time press it a the lashline and lightly and slowly wipe down.
4. To get rid of any remains of the coloured cosmetics, make gentle movements from the outer to the inner corner of the eye. Repeat this procedure until the cotton pads are clean.

The best eye makeup remover is…

We often use the same product as for cleansing the entire face. That is why it is very important that the cosmetic is tailored to the needs of your skin. It should soothe irritations as well as moisturize and nourish the skin of eyelids and eyelashes. The most popular eye makeup remover products are delicate cleansing milk, bi-phase liquids and micellar water.
