I’ve tried many makeup removers over the years to remove regular makeup, and waterproof. Still, each morning I wake up with raccoon eyes, and sticky lashes. I’d been using jojoba oil as a hair product to add luster and shine to my hair not knowing of its other uses and benefits. I read a magazine article about its effectiveness as an eye and face makeup remover.
I tried it, and I’m sold. Be sure to purchase pure jojoba oil (100%) for the eye and face, because there’s one specific for hair. When applied with even, circular strokes, the eye makeup quickly melts away, leaving your eyes soft, moist, and without a greasy feeling. I don’t use it for the face because I have oily skin and although jojoba is non-greasy, it’s still too much moisture for my type of skin. This doesn’t mean it would not work for other skin types, even other types of oily skin. Everyone is different.
Jojoba oil is considered a great skin moisturizer, and it’s a completely natural healthy treatment for the skin. The downside is that it can be quite expensive; however, some natural foods stores often have sales, and when they do, stock up! The good news is that a little goes a long way, so you don’t have to purchase often. I personally don’t have a favorite brand and must admit I go by sale price; still, not one of them has disappointed me. Some may be thicker than others, but they all work the same. If there’s one particular brand you swear by, please let us know. In the meantime, try it and let me know how it works out. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
