This is a recipe that I used to use to remove my make-up, before I started making my own soap. It's quick, easy, and natural. Most people already have the ingredients on hand.
Homemade Cold Cream
1 egg yolk, beaten
2 T lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Combine egg yolk and lemon juice. Stir with a wire wisk, gradually adding oils until mixture thickens. If it's too thick, add more lemon juice.
I used to keep mine in the fridge. It doesn't have any preservatives, so it's best to use it up fairly quickly. It feels so nice on the skin.
Carlie passed away last night. I was with her at the time. She was in her bed. Her ninth birthday would have been the first week of November. It is terribly sad to lose a pet. I will miss her.
Oh I am so sorry about Carlie. Losing our much loved pets is so tough. Thinking of you and here comes a tight, squeezy hug.

Hi Selina, Yes, I still have one dog. She does really miss Carlie. We still had a fun frisbee session and long walk yesterday, though.
