A reliable makeup remover and toner form the foundation of any solid skincare routine. After reviewing the ingredients in commercial products, I've turned to homemade alternatives that deliver results without the hassle—or the long prep time.
Here's a straightforward recipe for a homemade makeup remover you can whip up in just 1 minute. Watch how easy it is:

1. Pour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into a small bottle.
2. Add 1 tablespoon of sweet almond oil and 1 tablespoon of Vaseline. Use equal parts of all three ingredients.
3. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
4. Apply to your face using a cotton pad.
Your homemade makeup remover is ready in just 1 minute! :-)
For a complete routine, follow up with a simple homemade toner: Soak a cotton pad in fresh lemon juice and gently swipe over your face. This removes any residue while the lemon's natural astringent properties help tighten pores.
Pro tip: Store your makeup remover in the fridge and use within one week for best results.
