1. Products to use when removing making

"You always have to remove your makeup properly, your skin is everything so when applying makeup, I tend to use coconut oil and then I use a makeup remover, I usually use Nivea for my makeup removals and then I wash it after."

2. Get some rest

"It's important to get some rest, you don't want to wake up with a puffy face and red eyes which can mess up your makeup a bit."
