All you need to create your very own makeup remover is:
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Aloe Vera Water (most drugstores, heath or grocery stores will carry aloe vera water. If you can’t find it, though, filtered water will work just fine!)
A re-sealable bottle (you’ll need to shake up your mixture in this)
A few gentle cotton pads (for application)
A Step-by-Step Guide to DIY Makeup Remover
STEP 1: Pour less than ½ cup of EVOO
into a bottle of aloe vera water (make sure the container has a sealable cap
for Step 2 to work). A little goes a long way with EVOO because it’s highly
potent, so you’ll only need a small amount.
STEP 2: You’ll notice that the oil
will float above the water. This is because oil is hydrophobic, which literally
means “water-fearing.” So before applying, you’ll need to really shake the
mixture up and use it right away before the oil and water separate again.
STEP 3: After thoroughly shaking the
mixture, soak one of your cotton pads with it and gently press it over one of
your eyes.
Keep
it here for a few seconds while it works to break down all the makeup, and then
gently sweep it away from your eye towards your ear.
You
should notice your makeup is dissolving and coming off with ease.
STEP 4: Repeat Step 3 until your eyes
are completely clean, and then continue the same process all over your face.
