Face.

How to easily remove makeup without using nasty chemicals.

What you need:

oil.
cotton balls.
washcloth.
warm water.

For oil, I prefer oils that are nutritious and cleansing for the skin. I use part castor oil and part olive oil. If you just have canola oil, it's usable. Other good skin oils are almond, walnut, and jojoba.

Instructions:

Soak a tiny bit of oil onto a cotton ball. Start wiping away the makeup. A lot of it will transfer onto the cotton ball, but some will smear on your face. Just keep going until you have it mostly off. I can do both eyes with one cotton ball, but if you're doing your whole face you'll want to have more.

Get the washcloth damp with warm water and use it to wipe away the oil and the remaining makeup.

Ta-da! At this point I would advise you to splash cold water on your face for the sake of your pores. Or continue with more treatment, such scrubs, masks, or moisturizers.
