Extremely tired or exhausted? The mere thought of splashing water on your face seems tiring! But you have no idea how damaging it can be for your skin if go to sleep without washing off your makeup.

Sleeping with makeup on has one of the most disastrous effects on your skin, and it even accelerates the aging process. On top of that, the environmental pollutants that your skin encounters throughout the day clog your pores and pave the way for serious breakouts and acne.

Also, the makeup breaks down the collagen and elastin in your skin, thus speeding up the aging process and paving way for wrinkles, fine lines and dull skin.

Not removing eye makeup at night can cause dryness, redness, irritation and eye infections. It can even lead to your eyelashes becoming brittle and falling out.

Plus, due to makeup, the skin cannot repair itself while you sleep.

SOLUTION

At the end of the day, take 5 to 10 minutes to pamper your skin. Remove your makeup with a little coconut or olive oil, then wash your face with a mild cleanser and apply a moisturizer.

For occasions when you are extremely tired, you can use wet wipes. The wet wipes not only remove makeup and impurities, but also moisturize and nourish your skin.
