DIY Makeup Remover Pads

I used to buy fancy makeup remover pads from the beauty section at my favorite store, but then I discovered essential oils and all that they could do for you and your skin. I have tried to replace many of the chemical-filled beauty products on my bathroom counter with DIY versions, and these Makeup Remover Pads are one of my favorites.

Not only does making them at home instead of buying at the store save you tons of money and are safer for your skin but I feel like they work better than even the more expensive, higher end versions. These cleansing pads wash and moisturize your face every time you use them, whether you wear makeup or not. Lavender and Frankincense essential oils are cleansing but they also help restore skin with anti-aging properties and give it a youthful glow that you will love.

How to Make Your Own Makeup Remover/Face Wash Pads

You will need:

Note: affiliate links are used below to show you where you can purchase the supplies needed to make the makeup remover pads.

• ¼ to ½ cup Distilled water
• 1 tsp. Castile soap (get it here)
• 1 tsp. Witch hazel (get it here)
• 1 tsp. Coconut oil (get it here)
• 5 drops Lavender essential oil (get it here)
• 5 drops Frankincense essential oil (get it here)
• 4 ounce mason jars (get mason jars here)
• Cotton pads (get them here)

Directions:

• Pour ¼ cup distilled water in a mason jar.
• Add witch hazel, castile soap, coconut oil, lavender essential oil and frankincense essential oil to the jar.
• Replace lid and ring; shake well to combine ingredients.
• Place cotton pads in the jar to the top or until they stop absorbing the liquid. I like to remove the stack and flip it upside down in the jar so the top ones are on the bottom and can absorb more water.

To use: Remove a pad from the jar and gently wipe your face in a circular motion to remove makeup, dirt, and oil from face.
Use morning and night for best results.
