How to Choose the Right Eye Makeup Remover for Your Skin Type

After a busy and long day, skipping your nightly skincare routine is an easy pattern to fall into. But, if you want to keep your skin looking young and healthy, it’s important to wash away all the makeup, pollutants, and dirt that have been on your skin all day so it can breathe and renew itself while you sleep.

The delicate skin around the eyes can be particularly sensitive to makeup removers so, it’s important to use a good eye makeup remover that is gentle and will rejuvenate the skin.

To choose the right eye makeup remover for your skin type, we’ll explain a bit more about the different types of products available and how they benefit specific skin types.

TYPES OF EYE MAKEUP REMOVERS

Makeup Remover Wipes

Using makeup remover wipes is a very convenient and popular way of removing eye makeup for people with all skin types. They can gently and quickly remove eye makeup without too much fuss. Always wash your face after use and apply a light evening moisturiser afterward.

Cleansing Creams

Cleansing creams are great for dry skin because provide the most hydration in comparison to other types of makeup removers that might strip your skin. Since they primarily contain oils and other moisturising agents, cleansing creams are not ideal for people who have oily skin, they are better suited for normal to dry skin.

Liquid Makeup Remover

Liquid makeup removers work great for all skin types, and, like wipes, they are very easy to use.

Natural Oils as Makeup Remover

Natural oils like apricot kernel oil, coconut oil and grape seed oil are fantastic options for oily skin types because they tend to be lighter and less likely to clog the pores. While argan oil and Jojoba oil are examples of slightly heavier oils that may be best for normal to dry skin.
