How To: Makeup Removal.

Bioderma Crealine H20 - £10.95 (eBay)

REN No1 Purity Cleansing Balm – £23 *

It used to be that evening makeup removal was a laborious chore that I would do anything to avoid, it is perhaps why I don’t wear so much makeup these days – especially eyeliner. Yep, that’s exactly how much I hated the task. 

I’ve introduced a couple of products in to my nightly routine which has made the mundane task of removing makeup less of a chore.

The first of these products is of course Bioderma, a favourite of mine for removing any kind of tough makeup, as well as foundation and base products, without spreading it around your face. Bioderma is a micellar solution, it dissolves the makeup so it’s easily removed without looking like Taylor Momsen. 

This really makes makeup removal so simple and easy, I squeeze a little bit of this on to a cotton pad and hold it over my peepers for a few seconds and then wipe off eye makeup. Le simple. 

Bioderma can be used to take off all makeup, but I prefer product number two – REN No.1 Purity Cleansing Balm. Who doesn’t love a cleansing balm? Simply squeeze a small amount of this in to hands, warm it up between your palms and massage in to skin. 

I usually have a lifetime supply of muslin cloths (eBay link here) on hand to gently remove the excess – running the cloths under warm water makes removing makeup so easy. I tend to take eye makeup off first with the Bioderma so my cloths aren’t stained by my eye makeup, but if I’m feeling particularly lazy then I skip the first stage and use the cleansing balm all over as I only have mascara and eyeshadow to take off. 

So there we have it, the lazy girls guide to removing makeup. Surely I’m not the only one who hates this task?!
