DIY - Makeup Remover

Let's admit it, make up removers can be pricey either that or not natural. Let's take it back to household items that can do the job. Many households have converted to using Extra Virgin Olive Oil for a healthier diet. EVOO, as Rachel Ray would say, is the perfect makeup remover. Don't worry about it clogging your pores because of it's thick texture. EVOO is soft to the skin and definitely handy for makeup removing purposes. 

For those who are conscious of their diet and love yogurt, plain yogurt can be found laying around a fridge. Dab with a cotton pad and wipe away, simple as that.

The most commonly used item Vaseline or simply petroleum jelly is practically in every household, being that it has a variety of functions for all ages. I have to admit, rubbing Vaseline all over your eyes leaving a sticky texture is not so great. With the summer season calling for tanning which can lead to sun burns, you probably have stashed a bottle of Aloe Vera in the bathroom cabinet. For those of you who dislike the feeling of 100% Vaseline, mix in Aloe Vera at a ration of one to one and wipe away!

In correlation to babies' smooth skin, many still use baby oil. Just like EVOO, baby oil works the same way so take your pick (or whatever is left in the house). 

For those of you who have babies or are accustomed to the use of baby wipes, baby wipes serve another function since you can use it as a makeup remover as well. It also saves the trouble of having to find a cotton pad, just be sure that the baby wipes you use are unscented to prevent any reactions or breakouts.

Definitely stay posted for my next blog on EVOO's extra beauty benefits.
