When I wear full makeup, I have waterproof mascara, eyeliner and long-wear lipstick. I want one routine that removes everything without using five different products.

After late shifts, I need simple or I will skip it. I keep a balm cleanser and soft cloth beside the sink. I massage the balm over dry skin, let it sit on lipstick for a bit, rinse, then wash once with a gentle cleanser. It removes almost everything. If there is a tiny mascara shadow left, I use a cotton swab instead of washing my whole face again.

I still use two products, but not five. A proper eye makeup remover for mascara and a cleansing oil for the rest of the face. Waterproof mascara is the one thing I do not rush because rubbing my eyes causes irritation. I remove eyes first, then lips and face, then moisturize right away.

For full makeup, cleansing balm is the easiest all-in-one first step for me. I use it on my face, lips and eye makeup, but I go slowly around the lashes. It melts down foundation and lipstick better than micellar water. After rinsing, I use a gentle cleanser so there is no oily film left.
