Washing your face has been the everlasting struggle of lazy girls everywhere for years. When you are younger and more acne-prone, you tend to want to clean more often, to get rid of the undesirable “buddy” that pops up. As we become older, the pressures of work, relationships, and maintaining a social life take over, and skincare can seem to be an awesome task. At the end of a long day, a fast and straightforward cleaner is key, and leaves more time for essentials like Vino and crappy reality TV.
Indulge your eyes with some rescue products that will help you remove extra makeup at the end of the day:
Ole Henrikson Makeup Remover Wipes $15 – These bad boys not only remove even the most finicky waterproof makeup, but also smell like cream. Please do not eat it even although you’ll be very tempted. Leave them by your bed for those nights when you lay staring at the bathroom door with that “I can’t” face.
Perricone MD Blue Plasma Cleansing Treatment $39 -If you do not wear plenty of makeup and or have a more everyday look, this blue bottle will be your friend. It does not leave any residue on the skin, and a little bit goes a long way. Just put some on a cotton pad and wipe it off for the day.
Caudalie Cleansing Water $28 – For those with very sensitive skin, this is a godsend. It’s a makeup remover that also adds moisture and soothes skin during application, rather than leaving it feeling dry or tight.
Glamglow Daily Cleanser $39 – There are several variations of this daily cleanser/mask duo to suit most skin concerns. Apply this to dry skin as you would a mask, then slowly add water to turn the mud into a milky texture with a clean finish. I would recommend swiping the cleansing water (Caudalie) over your face very quickly before applying the mask, as it works best with most face makeup.
The days of feeling guilty about sleeping in makeup are long gone with these easy products. Wake up feeling refreshed without the pillowcase with the most color you have ever had on your face.
