Decided on early night , in bed and just remembered I've not taken my make up off !

[GoldMoon]

So as the title , I've just realised I've not taken it off .
It's only bb cream foundation , and I feel a minger for not getting back up , but I really can't be bothered .
Do you ever forget , and hopefully my face will not have fallen off by the morning !

This is what wet wipes are for!
I bought a pack for my nightshifts when I really CBA with a skincare routine.😁

Yes ! I can actually reach some from here . Thanks for reminding me . Lol .

Goodness I rarely remember to take mine off, though that will probably get me kicked off S&B

I am in bed face unwashed too 😅 but I don't meet Mumsnet standards generally!

This is the exact reason I have micellar water and reusable pads on my bedside table 😂

I’ve just had a shower and washed Mine off. That’s as good as it gets for me tonight. Relax op you’ll be fine.

I'm not high standards person but once I've realised I've forgotten I wouldn't be able to sleep so yes I'd get up and do it.

I slept in my make up for most of my twenties!

I used to get away with this post clubbing with my youthful skin, now I'd end up with a face full of spots the next day - joy!

Me too, and I used to wake up looking sexily tousled and smudgy-eyed. Those days are long gone 😭

I would have to get up and remove it OP and apply some facial oil.

Meh. One night won't kill you.

I either go the whole Hogg and spend ages cleansing, toning, facial yoga, night cream, peptides etc or I go to bed in full make up. It’s probably 60:40. I’m 50 and my face hasn’t fallen off yet.

Up and double cleansed !

Btw it was a light hearted post , wasn't that concerned and it wasn't the first time either 😀

That's the worst. I like the Olay daily facial water activated wipes when I do this - quick and easy then bang on a bit of moisturiser.

Been there OP. If it helps any, I always think my skin looks better the next day if the make up is left on.

But, the only reason I make sure I take it all off now, is because I got a new really nice silk pillowcase and I don't want to leave foundation marks on it 😂

I am terrible and in 35 years of wearing makeup I probably only ever taken it off about three times. I also have no skin care routine and never wash my face with anything other than water!

When I was younger I would not clean my face until the magic hour of 5am! I would plan not to remove it - after all I could remove it in the morning and by 5am I had to sit up0 in bed and take it off, could stand not to! But there had been times when I had started to remove it, then woke up (yes at the magic hour!!) with a bit of cotton wool in my hand and a hand mirror - I had fallen asleep with the lights on but still I managed to clean my face eventually!

Absolutely! To the naught corner with you!

I have sometimes left my mascara on until the next morning but most of the time when I get home it is a relief to get the stuff off!

I cleanse my face earlier, around 8pm because I'm usually too tired before bed to do a proper job. It gives my skin a couple of hours of breathing space to absorb the night cream and then I'll do a face oil massage at bedtime.

I don't wear foundation only a little eye makeup but always remove it with makeup wet wipes then slap on a bit of moisturizer. This is done sitting up in bed while dabbling on my tablet. Mumsnet dabbling is a must every night before I sleep.

What the buggery is facial yoga? 🫤

Rarely take my make up off. Have a good complexion and young looking skin. In my mid 50s. Been like this all my life. Think you'll be fine. Hope you enjoyed your early night.

Rarely bother and there's no change in my skjn so it can't be that bad.

I've never bothered taking my make up off at night. My skin care regime is cleansing wipe and moisturiser every morning! I'm 53, have great skin and no wrinkles. I think sometimes less is more

That's what bedside micellar water is for

In the past maybe, not so lucky now 😁
