Are You Really Removing All of Your Makeup?If you're waking up with raccoon eyes or lipstick smear, discover the best ways to keep your makeup from crawling into bed with you |
Remove Every Lick of Lipstick We all want a long-lasting lipstick that stays all day� until we're standing over the bathroom sink at 2 a.m. with lipstick that refuses to budge. For hard-to-remove liquid lipstick, you need an oil-based cleanser that will cut through the plastics, wax and pigments clinging to the skin. The oil will also keep your lips from drying out. We like Sephora's Supreme Cleansing Oil, $15, and Make Twilight Lip Oil Remover, $10.
Use your fingertips to work the oil into your lips creases. With a cotton round, sweep from right to left, flip it over and sweep from left to right. For lipsticks that aren't meant to survive a nuclear holocaust, a few swipes in the same motion with an oil-infused remover wipe like Dermalogica Precleanse Wipes, $18, should do the trick.
No makeup remover on hand? No problem. Try this genius hack for removing liquid lipstick.
If you have trouble coloring inside the lines or managed to smear dark lipstick on your face during dinner, use an oil-free eye makeup remover like Maybelline Expert Eyes 100 Percent Oil-Free Makeup Remover, $4.65, and a cotton pad to quickly lift stains and smudges from skin. Oil-free formulas won't smear the rest of your lipstick.
