DIY MakeUp Remover (Eye)

The  most aggravating part of the cleansing regimen, is removing *eye makeup* which a step that cannot be skipped.

Why use a makeup remover ?
The skin around our eye area is very sensitive & delicate..
It ages quickly..
Avoid dark smudges on your face. (Who wants panda eyes tellme ??)
Ifyour eyelashes are perpetually coated with mascara, they can become brittle because the product leaches moisture from them. Brittle lashes are prone to breakage.. :( (No ! No ! We don't want that )

In short ..there is no excuse for risking your appearance and eye health by neglecting to remove you eye makeup !!!

Why Home-made makeup remover ?
For all the girls who have sensitive eyes or for times when you run out of your branded makeup removers..
This is a great and cheap alternative !! Trust meh ..

This recipe is a simple blend of vegetable oils designed to remove non-waterproof mascara and eyeliner without exposing the sensitive eye skin to too much rubbing.
The oils first bond with the makeup, allowing it to be wiped away. Secondly, they provide the skin and lashes with a nourishing dose of moisture. ( Cool isn't it ?)

You may need..
Extra Virgin or Regular Olive Oil..
Avocado Oil (optional).
Rose water or Tapwater.
1 plastic container.

STEPS

In a container ..mark the measurements of how much oil and water u will require.
Ratio of Olive oil and Water should be --1 : 0.5
(More of the oil than the water)
And if you wish .. 2 drops of  avocado oil.


Poured olive oil into the container.

Pour rosewater. Now adding 2 drops of avocado oil.

Shake well ..
Cap your container and label it, making sure to include the date that the recipe was made. As all vegetable oils go rancid over time.
Use a cotton ball or pad to remove the makeup (Ofcourse not ur fingers :/)

TESTING TIME :P
   


As you can see ..it effectively removes the makeup off . Be it your mascara's,eyeliner or shadows..
So try out this wonderful homemade recipe and leave the days of raccoon eyes behind you.
