Removeing your make up at night .




Removeing your make-up  at night can  be a daunting  factor more  and more ladies  I speak to don't remove their make-up at night .  Shock and horror  ..  Some tell me  they are too tried after a night out , some say they forgot they are wearing make-up ..and other tell  me  and this is the best one .. ' oh I only use mascara and and lipstick so what is the point " ! Well you can't get away with that behavior for too  long . I look at these young lady with their young skin and I am thinking , " miss thing you are so lucky  right now with your twenty something  year old skin , just you wait till you reach my age you will have wish you toke notice . "

Your Beauiful skin is being killed  off by you ,  "why ? Because yuh too lazy to clean your face before you go th bed , "How can  you " , Is it so important? Yes it is ! If you don't remove your make-up at night then with all the dirt and grime will irritate your skin . Bacteria can be form in the eye make-up very quickly ,keeping make-up on for 24 hours will surely clog your pores and cause pimples breakouts ,and in many cases  acne and it will without a doubt age your skin ,most makeup is comedogenic meaning it will clog your skin  there is some harmless  make-up like mineral base make-up  ..but it must be 100% organic  check back of packageing look for prove ,but cleansing your face everyday is benefitcal because it remove dead skin cells and impurities for a long term healthy skin ..it's a number one rule  , all the women in my family has wonderful skin because we eat good and cleanse our skin at night.  

So I have been wondering how do I help my friends  , what can I advice ..so on my many cosmics  shoping  spee , I came across this little number .. Photo..

This product to mee is just wonderful 
How to use it ...? 
It 's a black sponge in a tin  and simply glide the eye shadow brush against it to remove the powder products  note powder products only ... And then there a fab mini sponge .photo below ..

This mini sponge you soak with water and press your eyeshow brush against it for wet make -up application ... 
This product is brought to us by Vera Mona  and was spurred by Letty Calvo's like the rest of us wanted something to address this common problem shared by many make-up artist world wide ..The idea started life as a prototype to tryed and tested by professional industry die hards and that prototype has now burst into the scence is a star in it own right .
