What’s your favorite makeup remover?
I dont have a preference
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
Proactive, Usually i’ll remove the makeup with the remover then go on to do my usual routine of cleansing toner and moisterizer.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
I always remove my makeup… if i dont i will feel dirty and can’t sleep.
I don’t have a preference. Although I’m currently using Marcelle. It works well, but it’s not like “zomg amazing miracle remover”.
Nope, no cleanser.
I always remove makeup before bed. Hell, I always removed it as soon as I get home from anywhere I’ve been!
I use biore facial wipes to take off my makeup and cetaphil to cleanse and i ALWAYS remove my makeup before bed or i feel extremely uncomfortable and dirty!!!
* What’s your favorite makeup remover? Mac wipes for face and Neutrogena make up remover for eyes.
* Do you use a face cleanser along with it? Purity cleanser by philosophy.
* How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I make sure I take off all my makeup before I go to bed even if I’m dead tired and cant move an arm.
I’ve really been loving Garnier’s makeup removing wipes, they get everything off and don’t make my eyes itchy. They’re also really gentle on my skin, it doesn’t feel raw after using them.
I use my Clarisonic with Philosophy’s Purity cleanser after removing makeup.
I always do. If I don’t I will get a ginormous zit on my face. My skin does not like makeup on at night.
definitely Neutrogena for the eyes. i tried my mom’s estee lauder eye makeup remover, and it doesn’t remove my eye makeup as nicely as neutrogena does. as for my whole face, i use baby wipes. lol i remember in an interview with beyonce on TRL, she explained that she used baby wipes to quickly remove her makeup during her tour with destiny’s child.
for cleansing, i’ve been obsessed with first aid beauty’s facial cleanser. i can feel my face feel softer and cleaner after using it.
i ALWAYS remove my makeup before going to bed, no matter how tired i am. i easily break out in acne, so i don’t want it to get worse.
My favorite makeup remover is MAC Makeup Remover Wipes – You can’t use them without washing your face after but they really do a good job of getting all of your makeup off, fast!

I has 2 for two different reason.
Marcelle Gentle Make-up Remover for Sensitive Eyes. Takes off everything I put on and melts really suborn waterproof liners (think MAC).
Embryolisse Lotion Micellar (No Rinse Make-Up Remover).
This will purge anything left after washing your face from your pores as well.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
For Marcelle u wash after using it since it is oil based.
For Embryolisse Lotion Micellar I use after washing my face to purge anything left on my skin.

How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
Extremely good! I can NEVER go to bed without taking my makeup off.

Do you use a face cleanser along with it? Sometimes, if I wear a lot of make up (heavy eyes, glitter, etc). I use to use some gentle cleanser by La Roche-Posay or Avene.

What’s your favorite makeup remover?
– Vichy 3-in-1 Micellar Cleansing Solution… absolutely fantastic stuff

How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
– Usually pretty good just because I hate the feel of foundation on my face when I sleep. I do however tend to slack if I’m not wearing a full face of makeup (i.e. some concealer+mascara)
Fave makeup remover – Lancome Huile Douceur cleansing oil and I use Purity cleanser with it.
I am completely devoted to a skincare routine every single night before bed – I don’t want any more clogged pores than I already have!
What’s your favorite makeup remover? Caudalie cleansing water: the best & worth every dime. I think it’s even what penny pinching Sephora uses to remove customer’s makeup. No oils, no mess, hydrates, tones. Swear by it.

My favorite makeup remover is Clinique by Clinique Take The Day Off Make Up Remover, however I use Sephora Collection Instant Eye Makeup Remover. Which is supposed to be a dupe, but doesn’t work nearly as well as Clinique’s.
As a face cleanser I switch between Black Opal Black Soap & St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish & Blackhead Control.
I wish I better at removing my make-up at night.

What’s your favorite makeup remover? I like Estee Lauders Take It Away, just tissue off.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? No, but I use a toner. La Mer The Tonic is my favorite when I can afford it!
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed/
Always remove my makeup before bed and apply moisturizer. It’s a ritual!
Best makeup remover I have ever found is Clinique’s Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm. It’s like a cleansing oil, but in balm form, so you use less. It dissolves even heavy eyemakeup and rinses clean. I do follow with a regular cleanser, Spectro Jel cleanser for blemish prone skin. And sometimes if there is a tiny bit of mascara residue I’ll use a q-tip and Neutrogenas Oil-Free eye makeup remover. I am extremely conscientious about taking off all my makeup before bed.
I don’t wear waterproof eye makeup, so if I use a good cleanser, I usually don’t have to use a separate makeup remover. Right now I’m using the L’Oreal Go 360 Clean for Sensitive Skin cleanser that comes with the scrubby brush, and that takes off my makeup really well! If I have really heavy eye makeup on, I just use a little more and focus on my eyes.
As for taking my makeup off before bed… I’m pretty good about it! I go to bed with makeup on maybe 2-3 times a year.
What’s your favorite makeup remover? – LUSH Ultra Bland
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? – Ultra Bland is a cleanser too so I don’t need to.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed – I’m pretty good at it, although sometimes if I am knackered I go for a lay down and fall asleep and then wake up in the middle of the night but I get up to clean it off.
I love the Neutrogena make up wise!
I definitely still use a cleanser afterwards because I feel like make up remover doesn’t really clean and freshen up your skin, especially at night when your skin regenerates itself!Right now, my cleanser is lush’s buche de noel. 🙂
I’m very good about it! The only time I don’t is when I’m really drunk, which is rare! lol!!
– I use Almay eye makeup remover pads
– Then Olay cleansing cloths
– Yes, I always take off my makeup before bed!
My favorite makeup remover for my eyes is baby oil and then i follow that with baby shampoo also i use baby wipes for removing lipstick. I use cetaphil as a face cleanser. I must wash any makeup off because i have sensitive skin
OMG I use baby oil too! I use it on a tissue or cotton ball to get off most of my eyemakeup, then I follow by washing my face with a generic Walgreen’s version of Olay Regenerist cleanser. Then, I follow-up with baby oil on a q-tip if I have any residual liner (on days I tightline, for example.)
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
– Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes!
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
– I have a prescription one from the dermatologist, but I also use Clean and Clear cleansers on occasion.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
– I usually take a shower before I go to bed, so I wipe all the makeup off first, cleanse, and then shower.
Recently I’ve been using the Kirkland Cleansing Wipes from Costco to remove my makeup and cleanse. They work great, and are especially good at getting off all my mascara. I highly recommend them – and they’re so cheap!
i use these too but i can’t use them on my eyes cos it stings so bad!
* What’s your favorite makeup remover? Estee Lauder Gentle Eye Makeup Remover

What’s your favorite makeup remover?
-> it’s Origins cleansing Oil
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
-> yes, I do. I use a natural soap
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed/
-> never ever skipped.
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
-Plain old pond’s cold cream if I have a lot of dark make up on, otherwise I don’t use make up remover.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
-Of course! Philosophy’s Purity Made Simple.
How good are you about taking your make up off before bed?
-I usually play around with my make up before bed practicing new looks, but I will never go to bed with foundation/powder on.
remover: I just use my facewash to clean my entire face, including eye makeup (Neutragena Oil-Free Acne wash). It removes every sign of makeup and you just have to be careful to shut your eyes tight when using around that area.
cleanser: same as above
remove before bed: always! my bed is sacred, i like to feel super clean and fresh when i get into it.
Fave remover: Bliss Lid & Lash Wash. Recommended by Karen (and I keep it in the fridge too). So soothing and gets all my eye makeup off. My lids have also been less irritated since I started using this.
Cleanser: I use Mario Badescu Enzyme cleansing gel to clean the rest of my face.
Taking makeup off before bed: I always do this. I don’t even remember the last time I slept with makeup on.
My favorite is Caudalie Cleansing Water – so gentle, and removes eye makeup well (not so much on waterproof, though)
Caudalie Foaming Cleanser (I have pretty oily skin)
If I go to bed with makeup on, it takes me a week to get my skin looking good again, so I always cleanse.
good taste 🙂
* What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Estee Lauder Gentle Eye Makeup Remover. But I hardly ever use it, I just wash my face with cleanser.
* Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
I usually just use a face cleanser that is tough enough to remove all my makeup, I don’t often bother with a separate remover (‘cos I’m lazy like that). Laura Mercier One Step Cleanser looks and smells horrid but it does the job. Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Oil Free Acne Wash is also surprisingly good at removing eye makeup – and it smells nice!
* How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
Pretty good. *cough* maybe twice over the festive season I was too drunk to wash my face *cough* but I did find out that MAC Pearlglide liners will last ALL NIGHT without smudging…
Right now I use the clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover for Lids, Lashes, and Lips but I hate it. Pretty much just using it to use it up.
I’m pregnant and had a skin freak out, so I stopped wearing makeup (and washing my face) for about 2 month. Needless to say I was destroyed. My fiancé picked up a little kit for me at the Body Shop, the Tea Tree Oil one, to help clear my face up.
I use the Skin Clearing Facial Wash if I’m not taking a shower and Tea Tree Oil Blackhead Scrub in the shower.
I’m am SO bad at taking off my makeup. When I’m broke out I’ll do it every morning and night, then my skin clears and I slack off. Then I breakout, repeat. I’m working on getting better though!
What’s your favorite makeup remover? For eyes, I like Clean&Clear oil-free eye makeup remover. For face, Cetaphil or Spectro Jel on a cotton ball and then rinsed off.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? Yep. I use Clean&Clear Daily Pore Cleanser afterwards. I feel that makeup remover removes makeup, and then cleanser cleanses skin, so I usually use both.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I go through phases – sometimes I’m really good about it, sometimes I’m terrible. Right now I’m in a terrible phase, so I’m trying to get better!
What’s your favorite makeup remover? bioderma H2O sensibio micellar solution
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? yes, after removin my makeup I use my face wash by la roche-posay
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? i always remove my make-up, even after nightouts with lots of drinks
1) Lancome Bi-Facil for the eyes & Fancl/ Shu Uemura oil cleanser for the face (Btw: to anyone who’s been using the Shu oil cleanser, try the Fancl brand if you have access. Its much better at a fraction of the price!)
2) Elizabeth Arden’s Intervene daily exfoliator
3) All the time!
Favorite makeup remover? – Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes
Face cleanser? – Yes I always cleanse my face after using the wipe
Removing makeup before bed? – I am awesome at removing makeup before bed. I have to do it every single night or I will wake up with 3 new pimples. It’s good motivation to keep up with that part of my skincare routine.
1. Lancome Bifacial
2. I cleanse with Olay ProX Exfoliating Cleanser after removing my makeup.
3. I always without fail remove my makeup before bed.
Fave makeup remover- I use a warm damp washcloth for my eyes, then my usual routine; proactive most days, but i am starting to use No7 now the line is fantastic and the beauty serum does amazing things for my skin!
Facial cleanser-I use a mix; proactive on heavy makeup days and only at night, Vichy for acne prone skin in the AM, and I am starting to phase in my No7 products
Do I remove makeup before bed?-Always…I am fanatical about my skincare routine as I am 29 but aging well and want to keep it that way!
1. What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Definitely MAC Cleanse-Off Oil. I use LUSH Ultrabland too, but Cleanse-Off Oil is easier to use when I’m lazy. It’s water-soluble and I can just spread it all over my face (eyes and all) and rinse it off. Plus, Cleanse-Off Oil is slightly better for removing really stubborn makeup.
2. Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
Every other day, I’ll just use the makeup remover as my cleanser. On the opposite days, I’ll use LUSH Angels on Bare Skin for a quick scrub to get rid of dead skin.
3. How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
Pretty good, I’d say! I wear contacts, so no matter what, I always have to take them out before I crawl into bed, and as long as I’m at the sink, it’s not really any more trouble to quickly remove my makeup and wash my face.
* What’s your favorite makeup remover? Clean and Clear makeup dissolving wipes
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? My clinque toner/cleanser thing haha
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I am a freak about it! ALWAYS! haha (:

~I use Mary Kay Timewise 3-in-1 Cleanser to wash my face
~I am pretty good about taking makeup off before bed. I rarely miss a night!
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Lancome Bi-Facial is the best, but I use it sparingly. I use Loreal and sometimes Neutrogina or Maybelline wipes.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
I use different clensers to remove facial makeup. Mostly with the clairsonic.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed
Always.
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
MAC Cleanse Off Oil
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
If I wore foundation and powder, yes. Otherwise if I’m really tired and dying to sleep, I just use the magic of MAC Cleanse Off Oil because it really does get rid of all my makeup and without any sticky, smeary residue left over. It just leaves a clean feel after you use water to rinse the oil off, as you’re supposed to.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
I always remove my makeup even when I’m really tired because I really don’t wanna deal with it all over the sheets and pillows. You know? I just don’t wanna hear it….LOL
Makeup remover? Bioderma OR Sonia Kashuk
Face cleanser? Cetaphil Gentle Skin if I have additional face me up on
Makeup removal before bed? Iʻd give myself a “A-” but there are just those few nights when I dont! My goal is to be 100% on top of this!
At night I use Josie Maran’s argan cleansing oil to remove makeup, then I wash with Cetaphil after. I have to take it off every night because if I go to bed with my makeup on I will breakout like crazy!!
* What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Eye area: Lancôme’s Bi-Facil. Face in general: Lancôme’s Eau Micellaire Doucer.
* Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
La Roche Posay’s Effaclar Gel Moussant Clarifiant.
* How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed/
I can do it in my sleep hehehe
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Lumene Cleansing Oil
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
Yes! My favorite (right now) is First Aid Beauty Cleanser
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
Pretty good…I’d say 98% of the time…
Kirkland Wipes
Sibu soap bar
I ALWAYS take it off!
My favorite eye makeup remover is anything oil-based. I don’t really have a preference, but I need something oil-based. I don’t even wear waterproof mascara, but I find oil-based removers do a better job.
I use Soap & Glory’s Fab Pore hot cloth cleanser, but use only warm water to remove the eye makeup remover, as the Fab Pore irritates my eye area.
I’m good about taking off my makeup before bed, but prefer to take it off as soon as I get home from wherever I’ve been, as long as I don’t need to go out again after that.
Is your face acne-prone/combination? I want to try the Soap & Glory but I’m afraid it’ll break me out. If you’ve tried MAC Cleanse Off Oil, how do they compare in terms of make-up removal? Sorry for all the questions!
Favorite Makeup Remover/ Face cleanser- Laura Mercier Purifying Oil in the Rich version. Before I started using this product I was used to removing my makeup with make up wipes and then cleansing with my old cleanser. But when I switched to this laura mercier product I realized that it was incredibly good and better than makeup remover wipes. Now I just cleanse and remove my make up with the same product. If I wear a lot of eye makeup one night, I will just wash my face twice to make sure my skin is in perfect clean condition.
How good are you about taking make up off before going to bed? I personally have to be extremely compulsive about this because I have very sensitive skin. I always have to make sure that I removed every one bit of my make up before going to bed. Otherwise, i can wake up the next morning to a broken out face 🙁
** When I wrote this I looked up the name of my cleanser at the laura mercier website and saw that it is no longer available in the website. Im not sure if it is being discontinued or if they just changed the packaging. They are selling something called: Flawless Skin Purifying Cleansing Oil. Before, they sold the rich and light version. Does anyone know if that will be the case with the new one? Thank you!
Favorite makeup remover: Clinique Take the Day Off
do I use a face cleanser? Yes I use one from Mary Kay
how good am I at taking my makeup off before bed? Most of the time I do, like if I’m wearing eye makeup I’m good at remembering to take it off but there’s days when I just wear foundation, blush and lipgloss so I have forgotten to remove my foundation before bed and since I use Estee Lauder Double Wear it actually stays on my face for a long time
mac cleanse off oil…the most effective and quick way to remove all makeup at once.
followed by cetaphill if im not lazy. everything must go

How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I’m usually pretty good about taking my make up off. I’ll take my makeup off, even if I don’t wash my face.
Taking off my makeup is a must for my acne prone skin. There has never been a time when I forgot. I own a Neutrogena remover, but dont’t use it often. I just use African Black Soap.

Make-up remover– MAC Cleanse Off Oil (it takes even waterproof eye makeup off in seconds.
Sometimes I use a cleanser afterward.
I am religious about removing my make-up before bed.
I use grapeseed oil to remove and cleanse. I ALWAYS take off my makeup before going to bed unless I fall asleep before I intend to =p
Make-up remover: Any type of oil. Olive oil, grape seed oil, jojoba oil… Rub on face and remove with warm cloth. Gets off everything and super cheap and natural.
Cleanser: Not picky, just something to get the last of the oil off my face. I make my own, but I’ll use anything I get as gifts. At the moment it’s DHC’s Washing Powder or Aveda’s Tourmaline Charged Exfoliating Cleanser.
Definitely good about taking off make-up before bed. Dirty pillowcases suck.
Favourite makeup remover: Jojoba Oil for eye makeup and MAC Cleanse Off Oil for face makeup.
Do you use a cleanser with it: Yes, The Body Shop Tea Tree Foaming Cleanser.

I use Lancome Bi-facil to remove my eye makeup and then cleanse my face with Olay gentle foaming face wash. I really like this. I just sitched from Cetaphil to the Olay.
I never go to bed wihout washing my face. I actually enjoy it. It’s my nightly ritual. I love applying my creams and magic potions.
-green people gentle cleanse make up remover- or lancome bifacil if im wearing 24/7 liner!
-just the green people its 2in1 🙂
-terrible, must do better!
My favorite makeup remover is Silk Naturals Apricot cleansing oil. Yes, I usually follow with a cleanser, thought not all the time (it’s not really necessary). and yes, i wash my face every day no matter how tired I am – i can’t imagine how icky it would feel to sleep in makeup with all that gunk in my pores, eek!
1. Shu Uemura cleansing oil
2. Yes! Clinique facial soap
3. I always do! I think it’s super gross to sleep in your makeup. If I’m really tired I’d rather simplify my skincare regimen rather than not getting off the makeup.
for MU removal on those supertired days I always keep wipes by the bed
prefer Pond’s Clean Sweep original (blue & white packaging) because it really gets everything off pretty quickly, cheap & available anywhere
josie maran’s bear naked are good too
cheapest option: baby wipes

How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
» I remove my makeup religiously before bed (it almost like an OCD, I can’t sleep when I know I still have my makeup on & haven’t put my night skincare regimes). Also, I always believe it’s not makeup that broke me out, but not taking it off well. Dirty face = clogged pores! 😉

I follow it with Lancome Creme Radiance Foaming Cleanser, Lancome Tonique Radiance Clarifying Toner, then Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum for Face and Eye, and Clarins Multi-Active Night Cream. I ALWAYS take my makeup off. Usually, I take it off as soon as I get home at the end of the day. I’m very adamant of that.

Shu Uemura yellow cleansing oil, yes, I use a foaming cleanser with my Clarisonic, and I am religious about taking my makeup off before bed. Actually, I usually take it off as soon as I get home from work, as I work for a popular cosmetic company and always have to have a full face on!
I use baby wipes to take off my makeup. They work just as well, and you get a lot more bang for your buck.
Unless I’m taking off my makeup off before bed I usually don’t use a face cleanser.
If I have a full face of make-up I will take it off religiously. If it’s just eye makeup I’m a lot more lax about it.

1. I use Sweet Almond Oil to remove makeup and it does wonders at this task as well as improving, toning and lightening my skin.
2. Yes, I use a cleanser after I wipe off the Sweet Almond Oil and then I exfoliate my skin and then apply my night time moisturizer and eye cream.
3. I try to be about 96% but there are days that all I can manage is using a Basis Facial Cleansing Wipe, rinsing my face and then applying moisturizer as I am running towards the bed.
Niki– thanks so much! I’ve always been a fan of sweet almond & I’ve considered trying it for MU removal often but never seem to think of it. any particular brand you like? improving, toning & lightening sound good. 🙂

What’s your favorite makeup remover? The only brand I’ve really ever used is Neutrogena. I use all of their core makeup removing products, including the wipes, the liquid eye makeup remover, and the liquid facial cleanser. I find it to be gentle but effective. I’m not against trying others, I think next will be Sonia Kashuk’s eyemakeup remover.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? Yes, mostly Proactiv. I do switch it out w/ Aveda’s cream cleanser when I start feeling dry or flakey.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed: At the very least I will use a makeup wipe, but 6 out of 7 nights I will completely cleanse.
I use Balea facial wipes from Shoppers Drug Mart, because they remove everything (even eye makeup) pretty easily, and they go on sale for $4.99 for a big pack!
I cleanse with whatever oil-free cleanser & scrub I am using at the time & tone.
I am pretty good because even when I get back after a late night, I just grab a wipe & remove my makeup before I pass out.
Favorite Makeup Remover: MAC Cleansing Wipes. I love them! So refreshing and easy to travel with!
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? After I remove all my makeup, I use my Clinique Liquid Facial Soap in Mild.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I’m crazy about it! No matter how tired I am, I force myself to do it. That’s another reason I love MAC’s cloths, they make it a snap to do. The only time I can remember that I fell asleep in makeup was New Year’s in Vegas!! =)
What’s your favorite makeup remover? I just switched to Neutrogena’s cleansing cloths and I am very impressed. I was using the CVS version but I still need something to get the eye make-up off on top of the cloths. But Neutrogena is AWESOME!
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? When I’m not being lazy I wash my face after removing my make-up. My skin is too prone to blemish and break out if I don’t.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? Even if I don’t wash my face I ALWAYS remove my make-up before bed. The last thing I need is to wake up with more clogged pores and break outs.
What’s your favorite makeup remover? – I don’t have one because I typically don’t use it. I have one drugstore type in the bathroom for getting glitter fallout off my face, but I am wary of actually wiping my eye area with it.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it? This is genarally what I do to get my make-up off. I use Aveeno, the clear complexion variety.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed/
I try REALLY hard to do this every single night, but sometimes if I take a sleep-aid I literally get TOO tired to even get my butt up the stairs. In general I do do it every night, because otherwise my face feels dirty, and I often breakout as a result of not washing.

* How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? EXTREMELY good! No matter how hard I’ve partied or how tired I am…I just can’t sleep knowing my face has make up on.
I use La Roche-Posay cleanser to remove my makeup and clean my face, I’m kinda dodgy bout taking my makeup off at the weekends I always end up just using a wipe and it never really gets it 100% off, Mon – Fri I’m pretty strict though!
Neutrogena ultra soft eye makeup remover pads!!! So soft and removes everything without any burning!
I wash my foundation off with cetaphil then I use Clear pore by neutrogena to really clear the bacteria
I have to. I rarely, rarely forget.
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
Cleansing oil. I’ve used MAC, Origins, Shu, and Lancome. Looking forward to trying out Naruko’s (Taiwan brand) oil-based makeup removing mousse. Shu’s was the least agreeable with my skin though, despite its popularity. If I’m just removing eye makeup, I like Lancome’s Bifacil.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?

How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed? I’m actually really good about it. I just got into makeup in September and before I wouldn’t bother taking off the mascara or occasional eyeshadow I was wearing, but I don’t think I’ve missed a day in a few months now 🙂

My favorite makeup remover of all time is the Neutrogena Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelettes. If I’m not in a rush to go to bed, I will then cleanse my face with Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser using a face brush. Honestly, I’m not very good at taking off my makeup every night.
What’s your favorite makeup remover?
I loooove NARS eye make-up remover and Lancome Bi-facil for days where I have heavy eye make-up, but most days I just use L’Oreal gentle eye makeup remover (because it’s cheaper!)
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
Yes. I either use Shiseido white lucent brightening cleansing foam or Clinique mild liquid soap with my Clarisonic.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
Most days I remove all my makeup and use the Clarisonic in the shower, but days where I go out late and am just too tired, I just use a make-up wipe (I am guilty of not removing all my makeup every day!)
1) I use Neutrogena eye makeup remover and Clinique Rinse-off foam for my face makeup.
2) I use my Clinique 3-step cleanser
3) I take off my makeup every night before I go to bed:)
# I have used everything form cleansing oil , cleansing, milk, cleansing cream , cleansing gel, but nothing beats the current one that i’m using, larocheposay miscellar lotion for sensitive skin for lip eye and face, plus it’s frangrance free and non comedogenic, and it removes make so well, just love it!
# yes I always use a face cleanser after using a make up remover, this way I feel that my skin is squeaky clean, a soap from lush or philosophy purity made simple or kiehl’s rare earth deep pore cleanser.
# I always remove all my make up even when I feel really sleepy because I don’t want to get breakouts and I need to apply my eye cream and night cream, I want to take care of my skin!

MAC Cleanse Off Oil – even for my oily skin, it’s beautiful. Removes every trace of makeup and leaves my skin feeling smooth and never tight.
Do you use a face cleanser along with it?
Not usually, no. If and when I do use a cleanser after a make-up remover it is either NeoStrata’s Oil Free Gel Cleanser or, if I need exfoliation, Pevonia Botanica’s Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser.
How good are you about taking your makeup off before bed?
I am ashamed to say that no, I am not. I work odd hours and often fall asleep watching tv in bed. For nights like that, I have a pack of Equate brand Facial Cleansing Towelettes at my bedside table. The formulation for sensitive skin, oddly, caused an allergic reaction after having used it for years. Now I am using the type for all skin types.
