This light, moisturising two-phase formulation that gently removes makeup and impurities, contains natural extract from Rooibos to soothe the skin as it cleanses, as well as Bulgarian
Rosewater, makes for a superior cleanser known for its mildness, soothing and refreshing properties.
Due to the addition of Rooibos extract, the make-up remover is rich in antioxidants, renowned for its anti-ageing benefits. The make-up remover will leave your skin feeling clean, soft and refreshed. It contains non-oily emollients for use around the eyes which, with the Rooibos extract, are especially mild on the eyes and skin. This make-up remover is suitable for the removal of all makeup, even waterproof mascara, and has moisturising and skin rejuvenation benefits. Since this is a two-phase product, it makes it even more effective.
Application :
Shake gently before use to activate the two-phase formulation. A slight foam may appear. Add a few drops to damp cotton wool or a facial wipe and gently remove make-up. Do not stretch or pull skin. Cleanse skin as normal and apply other Annique skin care products.
Bulgarian Rose Water
Bulgarian Rose Water boasts gentle cleansing and toning properties for all skin types. Rose water is also known to have hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as being anti-viral, antiseptic, and a disinfectant. Rose water maintains the pH balance of your skin, stimulates regeneration processes and it has a calming effect on acne and sunburn.
Tips for Make-Up Removal
Make-up removal is an essential part of your skin care routine, if you want to have healthy and beautiful skin. Make-up tends to clog pores and, if you forego your regular make-up removal ritual, it can lead to skin problems.
When using a make-up remover, use it as follows:
LIPS: Start from the lip corners to the middle, gently removing lipstick, without stretching the lip.
EYES: Apply a few drops of make-up remover on a damp cotton ball and then lightly press one of the cotton balls to your lid and lashes. Keep it there for a minute, so it can work its way through the layers of make-up. Gently wipe the cotton ball, from the bridge of your nose, towards the outer corners, gently swipe your eye in a downward direction to ensure all the make-up is off. Open your eye and clean any residual make-up under your lashes. Clean residual make-up under your lashes, but be careful not to stretch the skin. Remember that eye skin is very sensitive that is why it requires a gentle make-up remover, like the Colour Caress Gentle Moisturising Make-up Remover, for a delicate skin.
Tip: Do not use the same cotton ball for both eyes – if you have an infection in one eye it will quickly pass onto the other. Also, cotton rounds work much better than cotton balls because of their circular shape. You can remove the make-up from the entire area with one flat section.
FACE: When your lip and eye make-up is removed, you can cleanse your face, from your nose towards the temples, with an Annique cleanser of your choice. Rinse with Rooibos water. Thereafter, follow your normal Annique skin care routine and do not forget to apply Eye Therapy to firm the skin around your eyes.
REMEMBER: A make-up remover is not a cleanser. After removing your make-up you still need to cleanse your skin with an Annique cleanser of choice.
How to use the Colour Caress Gentle Makeup remover on your eyes
Step 1:
Shake the Colour Caress Gentle Make up Remover to activate the water and oil two-phase formula.
Step 2:
Always use a damp cotton ball / pad to remove your make-up from your eyes. Dab the Colour Caress Gentle Make-up Remover onto the cotton ball / pad after shaking and gently apply it to your closed eyes, moving from the inner corners of the eye to the outer corners of the eye.
Step 3:
Should there still be eye liner left on your eyes, you can use a Q-tip / Cotton Bud dipped in
Colour Caress Gentle Make-up Remover to gently remove it. Once you are done, rinse your
eye area with Rooibos tea or water to get rid of any remaining eye make-up remover.
Tips:
To remove waterproof mascara keep the moist cotton pad on your lashes for a few seconds longer, as this type of mascara requires more contact with the makeup remover before effective removal occurs.
Should the Colour Caress Gentle Make-up Remover get in your eyes, rinse your eyes thoroughly with Rooibos tea or warm water.
To avoid irritation don’t soak the cotton pad in makeup remover, as the excess product will run into your eyes with the make-up and burn.
