Eye makeup removal: This is how it's done right!

Makeup removal is a necessary procedure for daily facial care, but one that most women skip. When it comes, in fact, to removing eye makeup, things become more difficult... Removing the shadow, pencil or mascara (especially if it is waterproof) can, in addition to being time-consuming, be destructive for our skin. Why; Because we're doing it wrong!

Usually, the practice most of us follow is to rub our eyelids in an effort to finish removing the makeup as quickly as possible. Rubbing, however, in addition to irritating the area around the eyes, can cause from dark circles to premature "breaks" in the skin, i.e. wrinkles.

The right way to remove eye makeup

The first thing we need to pay attention to is the cleaning product we use. The options are many between emulsion, cleansing water and oil. Make-up removal should be as gentle as possible: in fact, the best technique requires us to use our fingers instead of cotton. After all, when we use cotton to remove make-up, apart from the lot of product we waste - since it "stays" on the cotton - we apply more force, since we don't have direct contact with the skin, like when we use our fingers.

Therefore, we gently massage with our fingers on the eyelids and eyelashes, with gentle, circular and upward movements, for about 10 seconds.
