 How To Take Off Waterproof Mascara

Those who love eye makeup will swear by mascara. It gives your eyes that dramatic effect that every diva craves for. However, removing the mascara can be quite a task, specially if it is waterproof. Waterproof mascara sticks to your lashes all day long. Its water resistant feature makes the removal of this type of mascara a huge challenge. If you tug, pull, or rub vigorously, you may end up pulling your lashes out and damaging the delicate skin around your eyes.


How To Take Off Waterproof Mascara


But after a long day, you’re probably wondering how to remove waterproof mascara easily, and here we present you with  easy methods to do so.

Method 1 – Remove Waterproof Mascara easily with Cotton Balls



* Wet the cotton ball with makeup remover

* Next, close your eyes and place the cotton ball below your eyelashes.


* Apply pressure gently on your eyelashes from above so that they are pressed down on the cotton ball.


* Take note that mascara must be removed gently to avoid getting it in your eyes, which may cause an eye infection.


* Leave in place for approximately 20 seconds and the mascara will start dissolving.


* For this step, gently slide the cotton ball while still holding down on your eyelashes in one direction and without any tugging.


* Check your progress in the mirror to ensure all the waterproof mascara has come off. If you still see some stubborn waterproof mascara, gently continue to wipe the undersides of your eyelashes until all the mascara comes off.


* Now dip a q-tip in the makeup remover solution to remove waterproof mascara from the bottom of your eyelashes.
Now that you’ve removed the mascara, use a gentle face cleanser to remove any residue and last traces of water proof mascara, and rinse your face with lukewarm water.


* Finally, moisturize your face with a good moisturizer as make up remover tends to dry out skin.




Method 2 – Remove Waterproof Mascara with Petroleum Jelly

Petroleum jelly is probably the most cost-effective and easy way to remove waterproof mascara. To do so, simply use your fingers to coat your eyelashes with petroleum jelly. After approximately five minutes, remove the petroleum jelly with a cotton ball or pad dipped in warm water gently without allowing it to get to your eyes.



Method 3 – Remove Waterproof Mascara with Baby Oil  

Baby oil proves handy in a wide range of situations including removing waterproof mascara. Although this is an effective way to remove waterproof mascara, you must be careful as it contains petroleum, which may be harmful for your eyes. To get started, take a cotton ball with a little bit of baby oil on it and position it on the bottom of your eyelashes and wipe your eyelashes gently in a single direction without tugging. As an alternative, you can also use baby shampoo to remove waterproof mascara, but make sure you use the no tear formula so that you don’t hurt your eyes.
