Coconut oil is one of those items that we've always had in the house. I remember getting coconut hair masks from my grandma during the winter when we were young, and how she used to keep it in little tubs throughout her house so she could apply it on her hands throughout the day. She'd also have the same coconut oil in the pantry for cooking, which was admittedly a bit strange to me at that age. Why were we applying the same coconut oil to our elbows that grandma was cooking with? 

As I grew older I became to know the many benefits and ways to use coconut oil on my own home. For me it's become more a part of my daily beauty routine than anything else. Coconut oil is so versatile, one of my favorite ways to use it is as a makeup remover. 

Today I am going to share how you can make your own 3-Ingredient Makeup Remover Pads at home using LouAna Organic Liquid Coconut Oil. These are more economical than traditional makeup pads and a much more natural to help cleanse your skin at night. Plus they work really well to remove eye makeup including mascara, which can be harder to remove. 

DIY Makeup Remover Pads

YOU WILL NEED:
organic cotton rounds
1tsp castile soap
4tbsp LouAna Organic Liquid Coconut Oil 
glass jar with lid
distilled water 

INSTRUCTIONS:
Pour soap, LouAna Liquid Coconut Oil about 1/4 cups of distilled water in glass jar and mix. Place cotton rounds into the jar slowly pressing them so they can begin to absorb the liquid. Once all the pads are in the jar pour more water onto the pads evenly, stop depending on how wet you prefer your makeup wipes to be. Close lid tightly and give the jar a good shake to coat all wipes evenly.

Store in glass jar with tightened to keep pads moist.

I use these makeup remover pads in the evening before washing my face to remove all traces of makeup. Even on days that I don't wear makeup, I like to run a pad over my skin before washing to remove impurities and sunscreen from my skin. After using, I always cleanse with a mild cleanser and moisturize. Don't forget to moisturize your skin twice a day!
