How to Remove Lipstick Stains From Lips Using Olive Oil

Tools and materials:

• Olive oil
• Cotton pads
• Lipstick

I found that the best DIY makeup remover is olive oil! That’s right! Not only do people use it for their hair or as a face mask, but another great use for it is to remove makeup, including lipstick stains.

I personally don’t like using olive oil to remove my eye makeup, as it makes my vision blurry, but around the lips? It works like a dream!

So, time for a little test! I put some red lipstick on the back of my hand, and it’s been there for a good 10 minutes. 

Next, I’m using a drug store makeup remover to try to remove the lipstick and stain completely. Let’s see how it works. 

Here, I swiped half of the makeup swatch, and as you can see, the red stain is still lingering!

Now, I pour the olive oil on a clean cotton swab and swipe the other half. 

As you can see, the right side where I applied the olive oil has come off much easier than the left side. Also, there are still visible red stains on the left side where I used the drugstore product.
