Kim Kardashian is just like the rest of us. In a #TBT photo posted to her Instagram account, the reality star confessed to falling asleep with all of her makeup on, writing, “#TBT last night right before I fell asleep with all of my make up on grrrrrr.” (If you’ve seen any before and after photos of her makeup application process, you know that means it was a lot of makeup.) As easy as it is to collapse into bed after a few too many margaritas with a full smoky eye, taking your makeup off before you go to bed is seriously important—not only for your skin, but also for your pillowcase.
Dr. Ava Shamban, a Beverly Hills dermatologist and author of Heal Your Skin, says that taking off your makeup is the most important thing you can do for your skin, especially at night when there is more cell turnover and your skin is working on repairing itself. “Makeup traps pollutants, so always take off your makeup,” says Shamban. Not removing your makeup can lead to breakouts and irritated skin, and who wants that? Here are five products for quick and painless makeup removal—even for the laziest girl.
