Hi,

I was wondering if you ladies had any tips to help conserve water during a drought. So far I thought of stocking up on makeup removing wipes, dry shampoo, and I'm considering using a cold cream to cleanse my skin but I've never used one, any advice or recommendations on that? I believe they can be used without water? Also any advice about hair removing creams?

Thank you!

Hand sanitizer, baby wipes as body/face and I use cetaphil cleanser (gentle version) and you can remove it by using a wet cloth instead of using water :)

Baby wipes are death for your face. I like Trevor's tips. They also sell cleansing facial wipes like Ponds. Works as just a general cleaning facial wipe and as a makeup remover.

I'm sure she didn't mean for all of them to go on her face. obviously hand sanitizer is for hands baby wipes to cleanse your body/face which is fine as it is no harm to babies skin which is far more sensitive

A cleansing milk is a great, no-fuss alternative to your normal face wash. Otherwise just use cleansing wipes and a toner.

Whenever we go camping, we buy 5 liter water bottles in bulk. We use this for making coffee, brushing our teeth, etc. You can also cut your shower time in half by not shaving your legs in the shower. Once you're out of the shower, you can take a measuring cup and pour water over your leg so you're not shaving dry, and it will work just as well as in the shower.

Of course you wouldn't use hand sanitizer for the face! it was meant for killing bacteria off hands haha.

Edit: my hand sanitizer was more of a "saving water" tip than it was a beauty tip, so yeah oops.
