Do you always make sure you take off your makeup before going to bed? Every night? Even if you’re exhausted after a late night party? or maybe ended up falling asleep on the couch? Or you simply just didn’t have enough energy to go through the whole process of taking off your makeup from your face?
Well, you’re not alone. In a recent survey, it has been shown that many women end up sleeping with makeup on at least twice a week. Though these very women are well aware of how skipping their skin care routine can cause damage to their skin.
Known Damages caused by not removing makeup
- Acne prone skin
- Oily skin
- Brittle eyelashes
- Eye irritation
- Premature Aging
- Dry Lips
- Clogged hair follicles
- Possible eyelid cysts
Despite knowing the consequence, why is it hard for us to follow our skincare regime? And why does makeup removal fall on the bottom of our priority list at times? We think ” How much harm can our makeup do anyway?” and ignore the warnings that we are well aware of.
For most women, it comes down to their priority, from tackling work, kids, and home which makes it hard at times to go through all the hassle just to remove their makeup.
from washing, scrubbing and toning your face can seem like a mountainous task to do when all you want to do is sleep after a hard day.
Though you may find it hard, there are simple and tactful ways to remove your makeup. Here are a few makeup removal techniques I find useful!
