When it’s time to recover from a long day, it’s best to climb into bed with a fresh face. Scrubbing with ineffective or harsh removers can do more damage than good though, especially near the sensitive eye area where the skin is thinner and more prone to fine lines and irritation.
Instead of harsh makeup removers, opt for gentle DIY makeup remover pads infused with Lavender essential oil. You’ll know exactly what goes into this formula, plus you’ll get the benefits of Lavender’s relaxing aroma. Use the instructions below to add them to your nighttime routine.
They work with all skin types: Naturally derived formulas, plant extracts, and mineral ingredients keep harsh chemicals away from your face, so you can use them with confidence.
Rinseless formula: Our convenient packaging and rinseless formula allow you to wipe and go! Perfect for busy mornings, travel, and more!

I love this. I bought Swisspers organic Biologique cotton rounds, which are fairly thick and ended up with 25 in the container, because there was still A LOT of liquid with 18. I'm not sure why the recipe only mentions 10 "or so" - definitely not enough.

I made a few nights ago and I am AMAZED. It's extremely difficult to find skin care products that I actually feel make a difference + are organic + are inexpensive. I just so happen to have all of the ingredients already in my house, except for the V-6 oil. I substituted the V-6 for olive oil (make sure you use organic and you can even buy it in a bottle that is made for using it on skin... it has a dropper like a serum). Olive oil has firming properties and is one of the few oils that deeply penetrates the skin. It's great if you have dry skin like I do. I use it in the morning before I ever put makeup on. It smells great and feels great. Even my husband said something about how soft my skin feels after using them.
Do I need to wash my face after using the makeup remover wipes or are they good enough and oils don't need to be washed off?
Hello Sara. It honestly depends on your personal preference. You can wash your face after using the remover wipes if you want to have a less-oily feel to your face, or you can choose to not wash it off. It if totally up to you! Hope that helps!
I've never been much of a diy kinda gal but once again my obsession with YLEO has changed yet another thing about me. It all started with these gentle Lavender makeup remover pads, so easy to make. Then it was Tea Tree toner which made my skin feel great. Of course I had to do a Manuka night cream. Then came the Lavender-Lemon eye serum, Panaway muscle rub, Lemongrass body cream. My favorite perfume with all the right notes which I labeled "Satisfy" and the list goes on and on. Thank you so much for all the DIY ideas the possibilities are endless.
looking for a good toner...can I get your recipe?
Not exactly a beauty product, but I've been making my family deodorant since the day I got my kit in 2013. I knew the dangers of aluminum & harmful products in OTC deodorants and antiperspirant!
Hi Diane! Does your deodorant work well? Do you have a recipe?
it looked like a mason jar (jam jar)
Thank you for the recipe, wondering how long can pads stay in jar. Is there a life span?
Thanks
Carole
Hello Carole. It depends on how frequently you use the makeup remover pads, but they should last you the amount of time it takes you to use all the pads. Just use them consistently and be sure to seal the lid after use. Thanks for your questions and let us know how you like them!
What is a substitute for witch hazel?
Hello Bri. We have not tried using anything other than witch hazel for this recipe. However, you can look for a replacement online. I have heard that using vodka can work instead of witch hazel. Hope that helps and let us know what you find and come up with! Thanks!
