I try to go light on the eye makeup so it will be easier to remove. I love occasionally waking up with just a hint of makeup still on and seeing my girl self in the mirror. I usually use baby oil and makeup removal wipes. And moisturizer afterwards!
I feel the same way too, for me it's when I take my bra off.
For makeup removal, I use much the same method, but I also have a product made by a company called Norwex and they are rather like a previous poster described. They're a micro fibre cloth which can be used wet or dry but are very effective at removing makeup, plus I use a makeup wipe as well to remove residue.
Also, I'll second something another poster mentioned. Red lipstick tends to leave a satin on the lips, not really bad, but what I use leaves my lips about the same colour as if they were slightly chapped. Not too obvious but a clue if someone close to you is being observant.
The other thing, I bought some beautiful sparkly eyeshadow and I loved to look of it, till I tried to take it off and the sparkles covered my face! I kind of flipped out, and all the towels and clothes I used got this stuff on too.
Amy Thanks, Amy. Glitter can definitely make a mess. I remember a girl in high school I dated used glitter for a while. Got all over everything and seemed to take forever to get rid of. I appreciate the info about lipstick.

What I use is Neutrogena makeup remover. It is fantastic and can be found anywhere. Very easy to use and does a super job. No soap or other hard chemicals to use. Try it, I’m sure you will like it. Hugs, Suzy

I appreciate the info. I'm eager to try makeup this spring. I work outside a lot in the winter, so I grow a beard. As soon as it gets shaved, I'm going for it.

Dana, good for you! It definitely takes some practice though. About beards. I grew a beard in my early 20's as I had a bit of a baby face and wanted to look older, then it became a distinct part of my male persona, even though I'd still dress up in private.
As far back as the mid 90's I did think how great it would be to shave and have makeup on me, but never had the courage to actually do till about 3-4 years ago.
Go for it, Girl!
Amy
