We all know that removing our makeup before going to bed is an absolute must, but that doesn’t mean we don’t slack off sometimes. Picture it---you come home late after a night out, you’ve probably had one too many drinks, there’s a warm, welcoming bed calling your name, and the last thing you want to do is muster up the energy to wash your makeup off. Lets be honest, we’ve all been there. But that stops today! What’s the point of investing money into good makeup products if the canvas underneath isn’t also properly taken care of?

Taking your makeup off before bed is crucial so that skin can naturally renew itself while you sleep at night, and prevent early aging. While that easily accessible bar of soap and damp wash cloth may seem like the easiest way out of this dreaded nighttime routine, removing your makeup with products that suit your skin type can be just as important as, well, removing your makeup.

On the bright side, having a proper makeup removal routine can actually be a relaxing way to help you drift off into sleep mode, and more importantly, save you a lot of time and money on acne products.

Wipes These handy wipes are the best friend of lazy (and just plain tired) girls everywhere. They’re extremely convenient---not to mention portable---and can remove makeup quickly and efficiently. But often wipes can leave behind a chemical residue. So even if you’re going for a quick cleanse with makeup removing wipes, it’s important to rinse off to save your skin from possible dryness and damage. For a less drying and more natural option, try Yes to Cucumbers facial towelettes, which are gentle and have 98% natural ingredients. Verdict: makeup removing wipes are best for girls with oily skin and a busy schedule. Yes To Cucumbers Hypoallergenic Facial Towelettes, $6, walmart.com
