Remember, the skin around the eye differs from the rest of the face as it is more delicate, has fewer oil glands and produces less collagen. Without these natural oils, the skin's barrier can become damaged, leading to dryness, fine lines, and wrinkles. This is why it is so important to properly remove eye makeup with products specially formulated for the task.
To effectively remove eye makeup without irritating the eye, opt for an oil-based product. Emollient-rich based makeup removers are conditioning, hydrating, and glide easily across the skin. Apply gentle pressure to sweep across the lid and lash line to clear eyeliner, remembering to keep eyes closed tightly. Circlular, sweeping motions across the eyelid and lashes will help cleanse eyeshadow and mascara.
