1. Remove the foundation first
The best products to use for removing the foundations are oil-based ones. They clean better waterproof products without drying the skin. You can gently massage your face using micellar water or other cleaning product. Let stay on your face for 15 minutes before you wipe it with a wet cotton cloth. If you feel there is still a foundation on your face, you can repeat it from the beginning.
2. Don’t rush the face-cleaning routine
Always take your time when you’re cleaning your face. If you rush it, you probably will skip some steps and your face won’t be clean enough. It’s very important to be gentle with your face and don’t rub it. One more thing – cotton is the best material to use for cleaning your face because it’s gentle and absorbs dirt.
3. Don’t forget to clean these face parts
When you clean your face, you have to pay attention to many “hidden parts”. They are not hidden, but many people neglect them when it’s make-up cleaning time. The list of these parts includes:
- The hairline;
- Eyelids;
- Ear areas;
- Neckline.
4. Make-up wipes Are not the best choice
Because of many advertisements, women think make-up wipes are the perfect face washing way. Actually, just soap and water would give you a better effect. You can still use make-up wipes but don’t forget to wash your face after. Using water and face soap is the best thing to deep clean your face of residue.
5. Give your eyes an extra care
The eyes and the eye contour are one of the most sensitive parts of the face. These are also the place where the first wrinkles appear. You can slow down this process if you take good care of your eyes. One of the things you have to put the most attention to is the way you clean your eye contour.
As you might know, mascara and eyeliner are the most difficult to get off. The first and most important is to never scrub your eyes. Better hold your eyes with pre-soaked cotton pads and stay like this for 10-15 seconds. Use waterproof oil-based remover because it won’t dry the eye contour area.
6. Moisure the skin after it’s clean
This is an important step to make your skin ready to rest. Moisture products work best during the night when you don’t put any makeup on your skin for hours.
There are different moisture products appropriate for all face parts.
Use balsam for your lips after you remove the lipstick. It’s also important to use a cream for the eye contour.
7. Clean your face with natural oils
Cosmetic products based on plant oil are a great way to remove makeup and clean your face. The natural ingredients help to repair the skin barrier and also have an antioxidant effect. Here is a lost of the best natural oils you can include in your cleaning face routine.
- Almond oil
This oil is a great way to remove waterproof mascara with minimum effort. Soak a cotton pad and go over your eyes a few times. Then dry with a cotton ball. The almond oil will protect the eye contour of fast aging.
- Coconut oil
The texture of the oil is creamier than liquid which makes it easy to use. This oil is a great product for after-clean moisture of the skin.
- Avocado oil
Besides being a healthy snack, avocados can also be used in cosmetics. You can use avocado oil to remove some of the most difficult-to-clean makeup like lipstick, waterproof mascara, and eye shadows.
