Is anyone using or familiar with any eye make-up removers that are not only efficient but friendly to sensitive skin? Input is of course always welcome .

I personally have been using Juvena of Switzerland's: Personal Skin Collection, Quick & Easy Make-Up Remover.

ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT product!!!

It contains D-Panthenol which moisturizes and soothes, and Cucumber Extract which also moisturizes and refreshes.

Of course, I am always looking and trying to keep myself as well informed as possible...so again, input is greatly encouraged .

TIA m'dears .

Kimmer,

For years when I worked at The Body Shop, their Chamomile Eye Makeup Remover, in the white plastic bottle, was a best seller.

I always asked customers if it burned, stung, or gave them an allergic reaction. Customers loved it and said it did a great job removing eye make-up and they loved it.

I still think they sell it, you might check it out.

I use baby oil, it's cheap, effective, and great for sensitive skin, it works especially well for MAC make up which is hard to get off.

HTH.

Jeff- Thanks so much for the input ...I don't have a TBS near me, but I will definitely look into this one ...who knows .


Fryl- The thought never occured to me to try baby oil . I will certainly be looking into it! Thanks .

Nivea Visage Eye Makeup Remover! I love it!

Baby oil works well too. My aunt always tells me to use it b/c it's cheap and effective.

Hmm...I don't wear eyeshadow, so I don't have to worry about buying makeup remover. But as far as brands & options go, I'd look into Clinique. Their products are safe for sensitive skin.

Here are some options to peruse:
Take The Day Off Makeup Remover
Rinse Off Eye Makeup Solvent
Naturally Gentle Eye Makeup Remover

Your aunt is a smart lady.
I also have a Lancome Bi-facil eye make up remover, and it does splendid job, but nothing beats baby oil.

Megan- Yes Clinique certainly is wonderful . Thanks so much for taking the time to link me up to these products ! *Off to take a gander* .


Jade- As I've told Fryl previously, the thought never occured to me to try baby oil . I am sure it is great for sensitive skin, but am wondering if this is safe to apply on the face/around the eyes ?
Thanks a lot for the input Jade !!!

we had someone from biotherm come in and say that using baby oil to remove eye makeup can cause those little white things to build up under your eye. the mineral oil can get trapped under the skin and look less than desirable.

This is my ultimate favorite topic! I have always had a hard time finding a great eye makeup remover, and whenever I ask sales associates ANYWHERE, what they like, they always would recommend whatever they sold..I just wanted an honest opinion. I have been using the Body Shop Cammomile one for almost 2 years, and I love it-No stinging, no oiliness, and it swipes everything off with no tugging! It's cheap, and it's great! I think it's like $8 or $10 for a huge bottle, and I go thru 2 a year!

Edward: Thank a great deal for the input . I must say that what you've said makes complete sense . Although Baby Oil is great for its own purpose I am doubtful that it is meant for use on the face or around the eyes.
Something as delicate as the eye requires product specifically made for that region and so I am wary about using something that hasn't been developed for such use. I probably won't be using it for my eyes regardless of how affordable it is.

To those who suggest it, it WAS an innovative idea regardless .


BBW Manager: This is an area of interest I share with you to great degree . Although I think I've found a wonderful eye-makeup remover, I am still on my quest for something "better" or "healthier". I am sure there are many products out there yet to be discovered...I am intrigued by this .

Kimmer, even though this might not be the most accessible for you, I still had to mention it. But I tried the VS Very Sexy makeup remover yesterday & it was really good. It wasn't oily, it didn't cause any skin problems, & it could take a heavy shade off the eyes.

I was totally going to recommend this product. I have it and its wonderful. It takes off all my eye makeup and doesn't sting my eyes at ALL. TRY THIS FIRST!

Megan - Thanks so much for taking the time to recommend this product regardless . The fact that it isn't easily accessible is of no importance if it involves something worth trying (enter BBW, VS, and a whole set of other things ). I will be sure to give this a try !

Thanks again .
