Removing eye makeup with baby shampoo

Some of you may already do this, but I hadn’t learned about this genious trick until recently. To use the baby shampoo method,  I suggest putting a small nickle sized amount of baby shampoo on to a cotton pad (less can be used depending on the amount of eye makeup that you’re wearing), I prefer the exfoliating ones, but standard cotton pads work as well. You don’t need to load the pad up with shampoo as its going to spread out once you start rubbing the pad on your eyelid. Now that you have the shampoo pad ready, simply splash a bit of water on to your closed eye. Rub the prepped pad over your closed eye to quickly and gently remove your eye makeup. For extra attention to mascara removal, simply rub the pad back and forth over your lashes. Once the rest of your eye makeup is removed, fold the pad in half to remove lower liner that’s close to you water line. Voila! No tears or eye irritation. I have a mix of high end and lower end eye makeup and the baby shampoo seems to be just as effective on all qualities. Another great plus to this is that because you use such a small amount of baby shampoo, the litttle travel bottles will be enough for about 2 months of removal and retails for less than $1.50!
