i think it’s better to have a gentle cleanser 💞
which cleanser do you use? Can you use cera ve cleanser as a makeup remover or is it only for cleansing after you remove the makeup?
 
Handsoap is rough for face imo, isn't there facewash made for removing make-up ? Like Dove micellar soap
i have one from "granier" but its not even soap its some see through liquid and it doesnt feel like it cleans well enough, so i use handsoap instead. What do you use?

My skin is clear but im scared im damaging it long term or something

I've face psoriasis so i use Uriage Cleansing oil to wash my face
 
for makeup removal using micellar water applied on cotton pads is the easiest for me, then follow up with a facial cleanser.

you can also buy makeup wipes but no reason to use them over the aforementioned method

i find that a facial cleanser isn’t enough to remove eyeliner and mascara

makeup remover is different from a face wash. since you wear makeup you should be double cleansing in my opinion. use a micellar water or oil cleanser first. if micellar water, you should put it on something like a washcloth or cotton pad and remove makeup that way. if its oil, just massage it into the face until you see stuff like mascara fully come off

then, use a normal face wash, not handsoap. handsoap is alkaline and your face is more acidic. this is why it can lead to irritation on your face. it doesnt have to be fancy ingredients unless you have bad skin issues. i personally use vanicream face wash and it suits most due to its simplicity.
 
i use a cleansing balm, micellar water, then wash my face
 
Your gonna need something else I will say though I do use anti bacterial soap on my body twice a week helps prevent body acne!
