Make-up remover wipes

A bit of a different post this week, but its still a recipe so I think it counts!  For years, I've tried all kinds of make-up remover wipes and they always make me break out or they don't remove the make-up very well.

A couple weeks ago, I tried a combination of witch hazel and essential oils as a toner.  But I discovered that it also does a good job of removing make-up.  So I put it in a small container with some water and a stack of cotton pads and thats it!  I love the final product!  You can change the oils for whatever your skin needs

Make-up remover wipes!
Pint jar or small container
2 TBSP witch hazel
4 TBSP or so of water
Essential oils, I used:
2 drops lemon
1 drop lavender
1 drop bergamot 
2 drops tea tree

  1. Put the witch hazel, essential oils, and half the water into the jar or container.  
  2. Place a stack of about 25 round cotton make-up pads into the jar.  
  3. Press down on the pads so they all soak up the liquid
  4. Flip the stack over, pour in the remaining water, and close the jar.
  5. Thats it!  They are ready to use!

Note: the oils above are what I make for my teen daughter.  I add 1 or 2 drops of frankincense and 1 drop of copaiba to mine.
