I was pretty bored earlier so I thought "hm I wonder what I would look like with thicker eyebrows." Mind you, I've never touched makeup in my life. I know next to nothing about it. I found a stick that said "CoverGirl easy breezy eyebrow" and then put some on my eyebrows. I said "cool" and then tried to get it off.

The problem is that it would not come off. How the hell do I get this stuff off? Preferably with common household stuff. Help.

Edit: Found some makeup wipes, put too much oil, now my face is covered in olive oil. Accidentally rubbed too hard and got out patches of my eyebrows, but the makeup is finally out. RIP. Thank for y'all's help.

Do you have any olive/cooking/etc oil laying about? A lot of makeup is oil based so should at least partially come off with that, especially if you apply it to some type of towel/wipe/cotton ball first (could even use toilet paper in a pinch but I don't recommend it if you can avoid). Apply sparingly enough that it doesn't drip or anything, and definitely test it in a small area first to make sure it has the desired results!
