How to Get “Unready” At the End of the Day

Tarrah Bouts, Owner & Licensed Esthetician

If you’ve been on the internet at all recently, you’ve seen the trending, “Get Ready With Me” videos that show women doing their skincare, makeup, hair, and ending with their outfit. We must admit, they’re pretty entertaining to watch! 

What we don’t see as often is getting “unready” at the end of the day. How are you removing your makeup? Do you use a makeup wipe and call it a day? (If you answered yes, you definitely need to keep reading. LOL!) In this blog we’re only going to cover removing makeup instead of a whole night time skincare routine, but HERE is a blog with Emilee’s night time skincare routine if you’re interested! 

I know makeup wipes are fast and easy to use, and maybe remove some of your makeup, but beyond that they end up moving oil and dirt around your face, and are not lifting anything from your pores. There’s a better way, and really doesn’t take that much longer! 

We’ve got a few products available that will take makeup off seamlessly.

Bioelements Sensitive Skin Cleansing Oil

This product is a gentle oil cleanser, amazing for removing both makeup and SPF at the end of the day. It comes with a pump, where you can apply to your face with your hands and massage into the skin until clean. While it does act as a 2-in-1 makeup remover and cleanser, we still recommend going in after with your typical face cleanser, followed by the rest of your night routine! 

Kitsch Ultra-Soft Microfiber Makeup Removing Towels

If you enjoy the ease of makeup wipes, this product is such a great alternative! Simply wet your towel, and gently wipe away makeup and dirt that accumulated during the day! Again, we recommend following up with your favorite face cleanser before moving onto your serums and moisturizer. 

Face Reality Ultra Gentle Cleanser

This product is such a staple at Amelia Gray, and is a top seller for good reason! It truly is an amazing product at an affordable price. This gel cleanser is perfect for washing away the day and will leave your skin feeling refreshed. Double cleanse, and you’re ready to move on! 

Removing makeup the right way is such an important piece to the rest of your skincare routine, which will in turn give you a better chance of your skin looking exactly the way you want.
