• Double cleanse

A good cleansing oil is always a good idea. Start by massaging the oil cleanser onto your face and gently rubbing the makeup off. We recommend using a warm face cloth. Rinse your face and repeat until you are makeup free. We love the Noon, Makeup Remover. This all-natural jojoba oil and vitamin E cleanser will leave your skin super soft and glowing.

We generally like to follow that by washing our face with a cleanser. We recommend the Neuth France, Purifying Cleansing System Gel. A soap-free refreshing formula, this cleanser will remove all remaining impurities while maintaining hydration, leaving your pores clog-free and your skin completely clean.

• Micellar water, then cleanse

Some of our colleagues at the Source Beauty office swear by this method of makeup removal. Using micellar water for sensitive skin, apply it on a cotton pad or reusable pad and swipe on your face till all makeup is removed. Try the Nivea, MicellAIR Skin Breathe Micellar Water (Dry to Sensitive Skin), a gentle yet effective formula that can be used on your face, eyes and lips. Follow that by washing your face with your cleanser of choice. The Kolagra, Vitamin C Facial Cleanser is a great option and will work to improve the appearance of your skin by giving you a smoother, healthier appearance and targeting dark spots.

• Reusable Makeup Remover Rounds

Join the positive trend of environmentally friendly products and swap your disposable face wipes for non-toxic reusable makeup remover rounds. You can re-use the Zoe Amber Cosmetics, Reusable Makeup Remover Pads for up to 200 times. The beautiful package comes with 16 reusable cotton pads made from 70% bamboo and 30% cotton. Use them with your makeup remover, your toner or even your cleanser to softly wipe away any makeup and extra excess dirt.
