Why this worksMakeup removal is crucial for preventing clogged pores and allowing your skin to breathe overnight. Using the right techniques ensures that all traces of makeup are cleared away, which helps in maintaining your skin’s natural balance and prevents irritation from leftover products.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Gather Your Supplies Start with a gentle makeup remover, cotton pads, and a cleanser. Having everything ready will make the process smoother and more efficient.
  2. Soften Makeup with Remover Apply your chosen makeup remover to a cotton pad and press it gently against your eye area for a few seconds. This helps to dissolve stubborn eye makeup without harsh rubbing.
  3. Wipe Away Carefully Swipe the cotton pad downwards and outwards to remove makeup, being cautious not to tug at the skin. Repeat until the pad comes away clean, then move on to the rest of your face.
  4. Double Cleanse Follow up with a gentle facial cleanser to remove any remaining traces of makeup and impurities. This step ensures your skin is truly clean and ready to rest.

Where people go wrong
