All Natural Way to Take OFF Your Makeup

We all know that you need to take off all of your makeup every night. Right?

After all, built-up makeup residue can cause all kinds of skin problems — including premature aging and we don't want that.

Washing your face every night is definitely important, but if you wear makeup on a regular basis, it’s not enough... Full-coverage foundation, blush, contouring cream, mascara, the works.

Because, in order to thoroughly cleanse your skin, you need to remove your makeup BEFORE you lather up.

Here's an all-natural) way to take it off your makeup.

In a small bowl, combine:
2 tbsp coconut milk
1 tsp seltzer water (not club soda)
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp witch hazel

Mix well… and just like that, you’ve got a nourishing homemade makeup remover, that actually helps your skin look more beautiful with every use!

- The witch hazel fights toxins and bacteria
- The fizzy soda water provides a gentle exfoliating effect
- The coconut milk contains age-fighting nutrients, like Vitamin C and fatty acids
- The lubricating olive oil allows color cosmetics to slide off with ease, while also locking in moisture.

Simply soak a cotton ball/pad in the mixture and run it over your face and neck until all traces of makeup disappear — then use your cleanser as usual.(Always shake your jar before each use)

Be sure to give this DIY recipe a try…

Because once you see what a difference it makes, you might even start looking forward to removing your makeup every night.
