How to remove eye make up naturally!
Quick tutorial of how to remove eye make up using baby oil!
Easy peasy lemon squeezy, ok it's a bit more fiddly than normal but I think you'll like the results - no black panda eyes or premature wrinkles by rubbing your delicate under eye area. It's this or give up wearing eye make up
Make Up remover recipe - 1/3 Oil (something light like baby oil or almond oil) 2/3 Toner (rosewater and glycerin - which you can buy from Boots Traditional or Burt's Bees - or you can make it yourself as rosewater and glycerin can be bought separately)
Milia - It's true that oils can cause those little white bumps you sometimes get on your face! I don't get these because my remover recipe contains a toner which removes the oil after it has done the work of dissolving the make up.
If you get milia it is because of the following:
Dead skin at the surface of the skin or mouth trapped under the skin
Oily moisturizers or sunscreens specifically meant for the face and not eyelids
Sun exposure can trigger it
Use of oil-based cosmetics like lip balm, etc
Lack of essential vitamins like vitamin A
Rough linen or clothing that can irritate the skin
Diet rich in proteins, fat and cholesterol like egg yolks, margarine, etc
So make sure you care for your skin! Don't use oily cosmetics unless you are removing them after use from your skin, reduce your sun exposure, exfoliate the face gently and eat less fatty foods.
