Long story short, if it takes you 5 minutes to remove your make up, you are not doing it correctly.

Cotton Pads Are Better Than Cotton Balls

Flat cotton pads are definitely better, and easier to use than cotton balls. Why? Well, mainly because cotton balls break easily and might »leave fibers on your lashes or skin,» says dermatologist Rebecca Kazin. On the other hand, using few flat cotton pads will ensure you don’t leave any makeup residue behind. Also, make sure not to rub too hard on your skin, and even less when it comes to correctly removing makeup from the eye area.

Use Soap And Water

Unpopular advice: Soap and water actually clean better than makeup wipes. Actually, they do a great job as an initial part in your makeup removal routine, but should always be followed by deep cleansing. Make sure to always follow up through washing your face with soap and water, in order to properly clean the pores and avoid skin irritation.

Moisturizing Is Important

There are plenty of factors in our daily lives that make us dehydrated. Therefore, just as you need to drink water to revive your body, you must hydrate your skin as well. As a finish to removing your makeup and cleaning your face, add a moisturizer. Lip balm for the lips, castor oil for the eye lashes, and the right moisturizing cream for your face area.

You can also use coconut oil if you can’t get your hands on castor oil.

Vitamin E

One of the most argued reasons for eyelashes falling out, is lack of vitamin E. However, you can always get a supplement intake of vitamins through pills. Talk to your doctor for the right Vitamin supplement. You should be able to take it everyday, because its antioxidant properties help reduce damage that might be causing hair loss.

Green Tea

Did you think that the green tea bags in your kitchen would be useful for your eyelashes? Well, if you didn’t know, here is how to use green tea to your lashes’ favor.

Add a teaspoon of green tea to hot water, then steep for 5 minutes. Next, let it cool off then dip the cotton swab in the tea, and apply it gently to your upper and lower lashes.

Make sure it doesn’t get into your eye, by using a little portion of vaseline. Leave it overnight, then rinse it off first thing in the morning.

Simple Daily Massage

Scalp massages are the best! not only that they make you feel relaxed, they also have multiple health benefits.
