The eye contour area is a very sensitive one. It is therefore essential to clean it carefully and gently to protect and take care of our eyes. Here are some instructions that can be followed in order to end up with clean eyes after a long make-up day.
1. Use cleansing milk to remove eye shadow.
The area around the eyes is a very sensitive zone because the skin is thinner there. It is therefore essential to clean it carefully and gently to remove all make-up residues that could damage it.
Experts say that Makeup removal should start with the removal of eye shadows. It is recommended to use a specific eye make-up remover milk because the texture is soft and glides better on the skin. If you don’t like milk, don’t hesitate to opt for the special bi-phase eye make-up remover.
2. Make circular movements
To remove eye makeup properly, it is important to make circular movements in the clockwise direction to stimulate blood circulation and thus avoid puffy eyes and eye bags.
To remove all make-up residues, clean your eyes with a cotton pad and cleansing milk. Gently slide the cotton pad from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner and down under the eye from the outside to the inside. To check that the area is clean, repeat the process a second time. Normally, it should be enough.
3. Remove the mascara with a cotton
Mascara is one of the most difficult make-up products to remove. Often waterproof, it remains stuck in the lashes and, if not removed properly, can cause a premature lash loss in the long run.
It is advised to remove the mascara with a cotton pad and cleansing milk to prevent the product from running into the eyes. Then remove the product with a gesture that goes from the top to the bottom of the lashes. If your mascara is waterproof, opt for an oil-based make-up remover.
4. Finish the make-up removal with a lotion.
Once the eyes have been cleaned with cleansing milk, it is important to refresh and moisturize this area to keep it beautiful and smooth. You can finish the make-up removal with a tonic lotion. Then, apply an eye contour treatment to moisturize the skin.
