DIY-Homemade Eye Makeup Remover

Homemade Eye Makeup Remover

Makes about 1/3 cup
Ingredients
2 Tbsp witch hazel
2 Tbsp oil of choice
2 Tbsp water (please use filtered water.  I use Reverse Osmosis.)
Directions
1.  Add all ingredients to your container / dispenser (I used an old jojoba oil container.)
2.  Shake well before using.
3.  Wipe on eyes with clean fingers, or moisten cotton ball or makeup pad and swipe over eyes.
TIPS:
To clean up stray makeup on face, put a small amount on fingers or dip cotton swab in mixture and clean up stray marks.
When washing face, make sure to get some cleaner on your eye area if you wish to remove any remaining oily residue.
UPDATE:  A reader mentioned in the comments that when you add water to something you increase the chance of it spoiling.  I answered saying I have seen natural cosmetics with water in them, and they have a shelf life of 6 months.  I also think the witch hazel will deal with some of this, but just make sure – if it seems bad—common sense – don’t wipe it on your eyes :-) .
