In the world of makeup tutorials and 10-step skincare routines, we all pretty much know the cardinal rules to follow when it comes to beauty and skincare.

But sometimes, we do things that… stray from these rules.

I’m talking about the times we cut a few corners and do things we know we really shouldn’t do, but go ahead and do them anyway. Either because we don’t have the time or the money or if we’re just feeling especially lazy.

My confession: I use makeup wipes most nights to remove my makeup instead of washing it off. Does that take off all my makeup? Definitely not. Is that bad for my skin? Yes, yes it is. Will I stop doing it? No, no I will not.

I know Ishouldn’t(trust me, enough people have told me)but after a long day at work, the last thing I want to do is stand in my bathroom for 15 minutes rubbing my face with various cleaners, moistures and serums, when a wipe will just do it all for me.

And I’m not alone in this.

When I asked women if they had any ‘shameful’ beauty secrets they need to confess to, the answers came flooding in. It seems we were all just waiting for an opening to confess to our beauty sins. So please don’t feel bad if you do any of the following… you’re not the only one.

What’s your beauty confession? Tell us in the comments below.
