We know (and your pillow too) that remove eye makeup is not a very simple task – even more so if you love a look with glitter, colored pencils, waterproof eyelash mask…

How to remove eye makeup

1. Moisten a cotton pad (or a crochet eco pad) with a biphasic, cream or oil make-up remover – its oily agents better remove long-lasting, heavily pigmented or waterproof products.
