How I Get Off All My Ridiculous Beauty Editor Makeup

I often emerge from events--or from my office--looking like some lady of the night suffering from multiple personality disorder, testing out multiple liners, blushes, shadows all at once that don't really go together. So when I get home, I have my work cut out for me in terms of makeup removal--but unfortunately, I suffer from super-sensitive skin and eyes and scrubbing it all off often ends with me crying in a corner.

I was telling my sister about this dilemma recently and she gave me the best tip--use a cotton ball with a little bit of Johnson's Baby Lotion on it, followed by another cotton ball with just water. I tried it out last night (I was one part Alex from Clockwork Orange, two parts emcee from Cabaret) and my makeup completely slid off with ease, no stinging or itching.
