Beauty Buzz: Quick nighttime clean routine

Dear Amy,

I know I have to take off my makeup at night, but I don’t want to use a budovecloths.jpgnch of products. Can you recommend something quick and easy?

Dear In-a-hurry,

You’re right! You simply MUST cleanse your face before bed – any slept-in makeup can wreck havoc on your skin (not to mention your pillowcase – yuck!)

When I’m in a hurry, I love Dove’s Cool Moisture Cleansing Cloths. These soft, textured cloths lather nicely, remove all makeup (even waterproof mascara), and gently exfoliate your skin. One pack has 30 cloths, but I always cut them in half –the smaller size is easier to work with and saves a few bucks. Good luck!
