The Best Eye Makeup Remover
Making your own homemade makeup and body products does not just help you save money; it also ensures that you’re using ingredients that aren’t harmful to your skin. As a homemaker, I love creating all-natural DIY products for, well, almost anything under the sun! This 2-ingredient eye makeup remover recipe is super simple and easy to make; you’ll be wondering why you haven’t tried it before. Let’s get started.
Ingredients in the Homemade Eye Makeup Remover
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon witch hazel
- vitamin e (optional)
How to Make Homemade Eye Makeup Remover
Mix together 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and 1 tablespoon of witch hazel in a small bowl. Transfer the mixture to a small jar and store it in a cool, dry place. That’s it! Easy, right?
How to Use the Best Eye Makeup Remover
To use this DIY eye makeup remover, put about a teaspoon on your hand and gently massage it around your closed eyes. Then, use some warm water to wet a cloth and wash it off your eyes.
You can also put a small amount into a cotton ball or a makeup pad, but I find that using my hands is better and more efficient.
