There’s a part of me that lives in this dream world of rolling hills covered with daisies. In this world there’s a small creek and right behind the creek is a little wooden house. There’s a barn where we keep the animals and just beyond that there’s a small outhouse.

If you haven’t caught on yet… I love Little House on the Prairie. This obsession shows in some of the things I do.

I like to make my girls homemade gifts for their birthdays. Sewing is a pleasurable hobby. I enjoy making my own laundry detergent, mosquito repellent, and cleaning products. I also love to plant, tend, and harvest our garden. Despite the fact that I live in a townhouse, one could call me a wannabe homesteader.

Lately this homesteading type of behaviour has overflowed into my beauty regime. I want to use less chemicals in my home, so it seems almost obvious that I should be cutting back on chemicals in my beauty products. This leads me to today’s homemade product, a natural make-up remover.

Natural make-up remover

Here’s how to use coconut oil as a natural make-up remover:

  1. Place coconut oil into a small container
  2. Dip a cotton make-up pad into the coconut oil
  3. Gently sweep over your face/eyelids
  4. Repeat until all the make-up is removed
  5. Rinse face with warm water
  6. Pat dry

Here’s an after picture. Coconut oil make-up remover was only used on my right eye (the left side in the photo).

That’s it! So easy, chemical free and natural! What do you use for your make-up remover? Would you consider using coconut oil?
