Question 1

How do I thoroughly remove makeup from my eyes?

First, use a cotton round or washcloth with oil-free makeup remover to wipe the eye area. Then wash the face with a face cleanser as usual. Once the face and eyes are clean, use an eyelid cleaning wip to remove any residual makeup from the upper and lower eyelids.
