Makeup is easy to apply but sometimes it’s a pain to remove it. With all the makeup removers available today, it’s hard to tell which ones are safe to use. Some makeup removers and wipes contain alcohol that can be drying to your skin. If you’re looking for ways to remove makeup without using harsh chemicals, here are five ways to remove makeup safely:

Natural Oil Cleanser
Cleansers might make your face squeaky clean but they can also leave your face dry by stripping your skin of its natural oils. When this happens, you might experience over-drying of the skin or over-production of oils which will leave your skin oily. Natural oils of the skin is what’s keeping you look young and glowing. If you don’t have any access to makeup removers, natural oils like coconut oil and olive oil can help cleanse your face and remove makeup without drying your skin. And it works really well even with stubborn makeup like mascara!
Milk
Milk is not just good for your body, it’s great for your skin too! Royal women have milk baths in their regimen from what we’ve read in stories before as the fat and protein in milk can hydrate your skin and retain its moisture. Homemade combinations like almond oil and milk is a great way to remove makeup and make your skin supple.
Cucumber
A lot of beauty products today contain cucumber especially makeup removers. If you ran out of makeup remover, skip going to the store and head to your refrigerator instead! Cucumbers can help sooth irritated skin because of its anti-inflammatory properties. To use a cucumber as a makeup remover, blend it until the consistency is like a paste. If the makeup is hard to remove, add olive oil or milk to the cucumber paste.
Yogurt
Yogurt, like milk, is another natural way to cleanse your skin without drying it. Another use for yogurt is when you get sunburns. To use yogurt for your skin, simply dip a cotton ball in plain yogurt and rub it on your face in a circular motion. Rinse your face with cool water. Now you’ll not only have cleansed skin but moisturized as well!
