Take it off with the same care that you used to put it on! It is important to take the time to thoroughly remove all traces of makeup before going to bed to avoid clogging pores that can lead to breakouts and the possibility of an allergic reaction. Your evening routine should include cleansing, use of a toner (may be helpful to remove any residual impurities), and finally, apply a nighttime moisturizer that is suitable for your skin type. Bedtime is an important opportunity for your skin to absorb any beneficial ingredients (antioxidants, vitamins, botanicals, etc.) contained in your moisturizer and to regenerate cells. In the morning, your skin will feel smoother and appear rejuvenated.
