If you’re a fan of your heavy eye makeup, especially for a night out, you will probably have realised that trying to remove every last trace, can be a very irritating task- literally.

It’s all good and well investing in the latest anti-smudge, waterproof eye products, although when it comes to removing them, their long-lasting properties can often work a little too well!

If you’re rushed for time, especially when you just want to get in bed after a long night on the town, attempting to take stubborn eye make up off can seem like a major chore- which could lead to you neglecting the task and going to bed with your make up still on. This is a major skin sin though, and you could wake up with unwelcome spots or blemishes.

Even though it’s important to effectively remove your eye makeup at the end of the day, this doesn’t mean that you have to scrub at the area harshly. The skin around the eyes is extremely delicate, and using harsh products or vigorously scrubbing at the area could lead to lasting skin damage.

For an effective eye makeup remover that’s kind to skin, opt for Dermalogica Soothing Eye Make Up Remover. This great lotion can shift every last trace of eye makeup without you needing to exert any excess effort.

Be kind to your eyes and wake up with perfectly perky peepers.

From mascara to eye-liner to eye shadow, lots of women wear eye make-up nowadays, and it’s a quick and easy way of transforming your look a little without having to spend ages in front of the mirror.

When it comes to eye make-up these days, you’re absolutely spoilt for choice and you can buy products in just about every colour under the sun. Whether you’re looking for waterproof, anti-smudge or products for sensitive eyes, you really don’t have to look too far to find them.

However, it’s one thing putting your make-up on properly, but taking it off is an entirely different ball game altogether!

Some eye make-up products can be extremely stubborn to take off- and those whose patience isn’t their strong point are often tempted to scrub at the eye area in order to shift products quickly.

However, this is the worst thing that you can do- as the skin around the eyes is extremely delicate, and rough scrubbing could lead to skin getting damaged and ageing prematurely.

This makes it essential to use a gentle product, such as Dermalogica Soothing Eye Make Up Remover. This is an amazing product which effectively shifts eye make-up without being harsh.

In addition to removing make-up, it also really soothes and moisturises the area- leaving it feeling extremely refreshed and hydrated.

Most women love wearing eye makeup, as it can really transform your look and help to really bring out the eyes. Whether it’s a touch of sheer shimmer for the office, or dramatic dark smoky eyes for an evening out, the eye makeup that you choose can also really help to enhance an outfit.

Although you may have mastered the art of applying your makeup, it’s sometimes difficult to make it stay in place- especially if you are in a particularly humid environment.

When using eyeshadow, many women also complain of the ‘creased’ looked that can develop after only a short amount of wear. However, you’ll be pleased to know that there are some very simple ways of ensuring that your eye makeup stays in place for longer and stays looking stunning.

We all know the importance of keeping the skin hydrated and moisturised- and this is particularly important for the eye area. As it is so delicate, without proper hydration, the skin around the eyes will start to look and feel dry very quickly, and those dreaded fine lines may start to appear with a vengeance!

Apply a product such as Dermalogica Total Eye Care before putting on your makeup. This fantastic formula helps to moisturise and smooth skin- which will help to stop eye makeup from creasing and looking dry.

When taking your makeup off, make sure that you don’t scrub the area, and use a gentle but effective product such as Dermalogica Soothing Eye Makeup Remover.

Give your peepers a little pick me up and flutter those eyelashes with confidence!

We all know that taking our makeup off at the end of the day is an absolute must. Apart from the fact that nobody wants to wake up to panda eyes and a pillow smeared with mascara and foundation, leaving your makeup on can have long lasting and negative effects on the skin.
Whilst leaving your makeup on occasionally after a late night can be forgiven, it’s important that you don’t make a habit of it!

Leaving makeup on whilst you sleep is one of the prime suspects for causing spots and blemishes. In order to look its best, skin needs to breathe- and leaving your war paint on overnight doesn’t allow this.

It’s not only your foundation and powder that needs to be taken off- it all has to go! In fact, leaving eye makeup on overnight has been known to cause nasty eye infections- which are not only painful, but also extremely unsightly!

Use a gentle but effective cleanser such as Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel- which is fantastic for all skin types. For those who wear stubborn eye makeup, Dermalogica’s Soothing Eye Makeup Remover is a great way of effectively removing it without irritating the delicate eye area.

So, before you reach for that bedtime book and mug of cocoa, make sure that every trace of the days slap is well and truly washed away.
