Inexpensive Eye Makeup Remover

>1 September 2009 1,057 views

oil 002 (Medium)Did you know that baby oil makes great eye makeup remover? It really does work well! I recently purchased some waterproof mascara and quickly found that I could not wash it off! Desperate, I grabbed a cotton ball and soaked it with baby oil. A few rubs and the makeup came right off! It sure is a whole lot cheaper than the “real” kind too!

    Great idea… just wash the oil off well afterwards, as the baby oil clogs your pores, and is bad for the skin around your eyes :) Baby lotion works well too :)

    I use equal parts of Witch Hazel and olive oil………works like a charm and will not clog your pores. :)

    I don’t know how accurate this info is, but I used to work for a drug store and got to go to a cosmetic meeting. They said you should not use baby oil on your eyes because it gets in your eye and can build up behind your eye in the eye socket and cause problems years down the road. Hope this helps someone.
    I love your site and hope to start my own soon. Keep up the good work!!!
