Ok, so hopefully some of you found some new sunscreens to try out!?
Well these sunscreen can be stubborn to remove and water resistant. So you want to make sure that your remove it completely before bedtime. And using makeup remover over your whole face can be very drying, depending on which makeup remover you use. And some makeup removers say they are alcohol free, when they are not!
The best thing I have found to remove my makeup are Oils! 
Yes, that is right oil. At first I was like what!? I can’t put oil on my super oily face! But oil actually dissolves oil. And it is extremely gentle and does not strip your face. So you really do not want all those products out there, that say oil free! Because oil gets rid of dirt, makeup, and can clean out the pores!
There are a lot of oils out there. I like Jojoba oil the best. Jojoba oil is the closest oil to sebum, which is what your facial oil glands produce. Jojoba oil can be used on oily and dry skin. But oily skinned gals seem to like it better. There is also olive oil, which has lots antioxidants and many dry women like. Yes, the olive oil in your kitchen!
Just Google Oils for Face!
There are so many different oils out there with so many different benefits.
I love removing my makeup with oils. It is the best eye makeup remover ever! I wet a cotton pad and squirt a little oil on it then press it against my eyelid for a few seconds. Then I gently wipe my eyelid. And Poof! It all comes off! No Stinging! And oils actually moisturize too. So while I am remove my makeup it is moisturizing not stripping/irritating my skin dry.
- First you need to wash your hands with soap and water for 30seconds or more.
- Then you drop a few drops of oil into your fingers and glide it gently all over your face.
- And then you wet a cotton pad and drop a few drops on the pad and remove your eye makeup.
- Continue to use your fingertips to glide the oil all over your face for a minute.
- Next splash your face with water. And squirt a drop of a very gentle cleanser into your palms and rub together. (I like Olay Gentle Foaming
cleanser for sensitive skin) - And then glide your fingertips mixing the oil, cleanser, and water all over your face for 30seconds to a one minute! (remember this is key)
- Finally splash your face with water and pat dry.
Some people use oils as a moisturizer too. And Jojoba oil is a good moisturizer as well! Just two drops into your hands and gently pat all over your face. And you are ready to go goodnight!
Try it and see! I just love using oil as a makeup remover! No Stinging!
People also use Ponds cold cream in place of the oil, so this is a good gentle substitute if you are too scared to use oil on your face just yet. I have never tried it, but many oily skinned gals like it.
And dare I say it. Mineral Oil. Yes. I said it! Mineral oil can be used as a face oil too! Mineral Oil is not evil, like many natuaral companies want you to believe for some reason.? Mineral oil comes from petroleum, which is what Vaseline is. Petroleum comes right from the earth, so it is completely natural and the most moisturizing ingredient you can find! That is why it is in so many lotions out there! If it was evil and hurt people then these big companies would have stopped using it ages ago!
Mineral Oil also is one of the least clogging oils out there!
I am going to try mineral oil soon! I cannot wait! Because it is way cheaper than Jojoba Oil!
