Confession: I’m not the greatest when it comes to skin care.  I don’t always use moisturizer, I rarely use toner, and I almost never take my make up off at night.  You might ask why then I decided to make these DIY Makeup Remover Pads  – I’ll tell you, it’s for my sister Kate, queen of black eyeliner.  She’s partial one brand of make up remover cloths, which, though expensive, she swears by.

I wanted to see if these DIY Makeup Remover Pads would work as well as her pricy cloths so I decided to give it a go.  These are soft and gentle on your skin, but still do a great job of removing make-up.  My skin felt, fresh and clean afterward.  The best part?  They cost less than $1 per jar to make!

How to Make DIY Makeup Remover Pads

Materials

  • Wide Mouth Pint Mason Jar
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • 2 tablespoons baby shampoo (no-tears such as Johnson & Johnson)
  • ¼ teaspoon baby oil
  • Large round cotton pads
  • (Optional – a couple drops of geranium or lavender essential oil, both of which are good for your skin and a 1/2 teaspoon of Vitamin E Oil)

Directions:

  1. Mix the water, shampoo and baby oil in a measuring cup.
  2. Pour a little bit into the canning jar and place about 5 or 6 pads on top. Gently press down until the pads absorb the liquid.
  3. Continue adding liquid and pads until the jar is full.  I used about 40 pads.

  7. I can’t wait to try this BUT I (think) am allergic baby oil. Is there something else I can replace the baby oil? I might have aloe oil somewhere in the house, but (if I can’t find it) Is there another substitute for baby oil?
