    I was watching martha stewart one day and she showed how she washed her face, getting off her stage makeup. First she used a cream cleanser, then she used about a quarter sized amount of baby oil. After that she took a hot wash cloth and put it on her face for about a minute. Then finally she rinsed it. She showed the amount of makeup that came off with each process too. It was impressive.

    It depends on how heavy your makeup is. If you're wearing only tinted moisturizer, lip gloss and some light eye shadow, then a good cleanser and water alone should take it off (don't use plain old soap, though! It strips your skin). If you're wearing foundation/powder, blush, mascara, lip stick, what I use is Cetaphil gentle cleanser, the kind you can wipe off. I apply a thin layer, wipe off gently with a tissue and then I use my regular facial cleanser. I find that the Cetaphil is gentle and effective.

    I also use a special eye-makeup remover for my eye makeup, but that's because i wear contacts and am especially careful not to get extra irritants in my eyes.

    If you're wearing stage makeup, then you probably need something more heavy-duty to remove it.

    particular, you ought to use a purifier even after employing makeup wipes. The makeup wipes are no longer made to truly sparkling your face the way a purifier and water will, exceedingly in case you place on beginning place. The oil and micro organism will nevertheless be on your face.

    If you're in a hurry, try some of those wet baby tissues. I always carry a pack, they're very practical for cleaning almost anything.
