As if getting the perfect winged liner and super sleek eyebrows wasn’t difficult enough that removing makeup is another task added to the list. After a tiring day at work the last thing one wants to do, is get to removing all that makeup. The pleasure of putting it on and looking fabulous is all lost when it comes to getting it off. But it’s got to be done!

Removing your makeup well, at the end of the day is way more important than you think. Beware of these 5 problems you could face if you don’t remove your makeup before sleeping.

 
 

Pimples

Pimples

The one thing that is every woman’s nightmare! Pimples are caused due to clogged pores on your skin and not removing makeup can give you just that. So the next time you want to skip this step, reconsider, you don’t want a new pimple pop up the next morning.

 

Blackheads

Blackheads

Clogged pores (a sure-fire result of not removing makeup at night) are the number one reason for most skin problems. Blackheads too crop up due to blocked pores. So if you don’t remove your makeup well, be sure to see these nasty spots on your face.

 

Infections

Infections

Tiny particles from eye products like liner, mascara and most importantly eye shadow can cause irritation and redness to your eyes, if not removed properly. If you fail to clean your eyes well over prolonged periods, that can cause an eye infection too!

 

Chapped lips

Chapped lips

Matte and liquid lipsticks can be very drying and if not wiped clean at the end of the day they can leach the moisture from your lips leaving them dry.

 

Ageing Skin

Ageing Skin

No one wants to have skin that looks old and wrinkled. Skipping on the removal step can create a barrier between your skin sucking out the moisture and this will leave it parched. In addition, make-up attracts free radicals that can cause early signs of ageing.
