How to remove makeup without damaging your eyelashes

Protecting your eyelashes means preserving the beauty and intensity of your gaze. Too often mistreated by makeup and abrupt movements, they deserve special attention, especially when removing makeup. Discover our practical advice for taking care of your eyelashes while effectively removing makeup.

Eyelashes: a fragile asset to preserve

Your eyelashes are not just an aesthetic asset; they protect your eyes from impurities and external aggressions. However, their fine and delicate structure makes them vulnerable. Aggressive gestures or unsuitable products can weaken the eyelashes, cause them to fall out prematurely and weaken their growth.

Common mistakes to avoid

1. Using unsuitable makeup removers
   Avoid products that contain alcohol or harsh fragrances. They dry out lashes and irritate the eye area.
   
   
2. Rubbing or pulling on eyelashes
   These actions damage the hair follicles, which are responsible for eyelash growth, and can cause them to break or fall out.
   
   
3. Neglecting waterproof makeup
   Leaving waterproof mascara residue weakens lashes, making them brittle and dull.

Best practices for gentle makeup removal

Respectful makeup removal combines delicate gestures and suitable products:

1. Choose gentle and effective makeup removers
• Choose products designed for sensitive eyes, such as an organic makeup remover jelly or a natural lotion.
• Organic vegetable oils (jojoba, castor) are perfect for dissolving waterproof makeup while nourishing the eyelashes.
  
  
2. Adopt the right method
• Soak a reusable cotton pad or soft cloth with your makeup remover.
• Place it on your closed eyelids and leave it on for a few seconds.
• Wipe gently, from top to bottom, without rubbing or pulling on your lashes.
  
  
3. Complete with eyelash care
• Apply a strengthening oil, such as castor oil, to moisturize and strengthen your lashes.
• Brush them gently to detangle them and stimulate their natural growth.
