I use makeup remover (oil) to clean off the makeup on my face thoroughly, and then I will follow with a facial cleanser to wash off the residue. I love to make sure all my makeup are washed off because I know they are not good for skin!

hey thats really a topic on which ladies would love to write. so being a lady how can i be stay out of it. yes this is very much true that when we apply makeup on our face we should clean our face properly when we come back home after attending the party and especilly when we are going to bed. washing your face only with plain water is not enough we must either take any branded cleansing milk or the best is to take a little bit of milk preferrebly unboiled and soak it in cotton swap and then wipe off your face. after that you should wash your face with some face wash. and to wash your face you should use cold water. cold water is good to keep your face glowing.

hi achinthya :) for me i just discover this one- the name of the product is cetaphil, i used this for my son's soap but when i tried it using for my face it works and my make-up easily removed... after a week i think i read it in a magazine it is recommended by a lo women/artist for make up removal and moisturizer too ;) Godabless!0=)

Before I used to remove makeup by washing my face with soap and water but, now I discovered this product that can easily remove make-up just by squirting a few drops on your face and massage it all over your face and rinse it with water.

You should use some cleansing oil or cream for ur make-up, or the remains may damage ur face and make terrible outgoings.

i always just used soap and water but lately it has been drying my skin out like crazy!! so i started using baby oil...it works really really good...but the only thing that im worried about is that the baby oil will clog my pores and make me break out like crazy...well i guess ill find out in a couple days...lol.

hi there friend.. well, in removing my make-up i also used water and papaya soap.. its better and safer for me than using make-up remover.. though there are lots of good quality but it's expensive to use it.. nice discussion.. happy mylotting..

Lately I haven't used too much makeup but my regular routine is switching from a cleanser to an exfoliator. When I have makeup on I use makeup remover then wash my face with a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil. I try to be gentle as possible with my skin because vigorous scrubbing can damage the dermis.

I have to admit.. A lot of the time I just leave it on (at least eyeliner); but of course I'll wash my face with exfoliating wash to get the foundation/cover up off. Some days, though, I'll use baby oil - it works amazingly AND is cost effective (the best combination!) :)

I do use Ponds Cold cream and wipe my makeup with a facial tissue. But please be gentle with wiping your eye area because it is sensitive part. And also after wiping off the dirt and makeup in my face, i do wash my face with lukewarm water and with liquid soap that is gentle for the skin. I never let my makeup stay on for hours when i arrive home. I will immediately remove it and i cannot go to bed and sleep with makeup.

Raw milk and coconut oil are the best cleansers.They are not at all harsh for the skin and also remove the makeup well.These also do not make ur skin dry as they have a moisturising affect.CTM is what I follow.I remove makeup with the help of raw milk or coconut oil or cleansing milk.Then wash my face with a mild face wash,use a toner in winters and astringent in summers (as my skin is acne prone),finally I use a light moisturiser.For toner cucumber juice is the best.Once in a while I lightly massage my face with warm honey,it works wonders and also removes black heads. As much possible one should care for ones skin.Leaving it unattended and moaning later is of no use.Afterall we all females want to look gr8.
