Beauty, Charm & Style
A Glamour-Filled Guide to Cosmetics, Fashion and the Essence of Being a Lady-
August 3rd, 2009Eyes and LashesDuring the week, I keep my appearance clean, light and professional. But once I punch the timecard at 5 o’clock on Friday, I leave my office attire and makeup in my cubicle and don’t look back. Pantsuits become hot pants. Sensible shoes become stilettos. And my makeup gets a little, oh, HOTTER.
Which is great Saturday night, but come Sunday morning…raccoon eyes, dark circles and mascara creases everywhere. Even when I try my best to get my eyeliner, shadow and mascara off before I pass out after a long night, I just can’t get it all. But now I’ve started using Boots Botanics Soothing Eye Makeup Remover, and my Sunday eyes are clean enough for church.
First, I thoroughly rinse my face. Then, taking my Boots Botanics, I shake the bottle up, I mix the plant extracts and oils together and then dampen a cotton ball. Here we go. Wiping down and away from the eye, I easily remove eye make-up. Mascara, liners, concealer and any shadows disappear and I don’t even have to rub my eye.
To keep the delicate skin around the eye in good condition it’s important to remove make-up gently but thoroughly. And afterwards, I make sure to use my favorite eye moisturizer and ta da! Ready for bed and ready for Sunday brunch.

Tips:
