That’s quite a question there…
The difficulty lies in removing waterproof mascara from our lashes and this godsend nightmare of removing eye makeup after a night out has its own terror. No matter which method you choose the leftover always seems to gather under your eyes making you look like a raccoon. The excessive pulling and tugging around your eyes can not only cause irritation but also break your skin.
The more rubbing you do, the more the thin skin around the eyes is stretched and the structural elastin proteins break down. This is why rather than rubbing your eyes you can pour some makeup remover over a cotton pad and let it sit on your eyes for 30 seconds until it breaks down the makeup. After gently wiping it off, you can line the eye with a soft cotton Q-tip, followed with a facial cleanser for later.
Dermatologists do suggest to use an eye cream after removing all your eye makeup as they help rebuild the skin barrier around your eyes.
