I also like Rimmel's. Works great and not expensive. It also doesn't leave your face all oily like others.

rimmel's eye makeup remover always works well for me but then again, i don't usually use really expensive makeup atleast not yet

Wow! What an eye opener! I've been using baby oil for years and with really dry skin and as a result, pre-mature aging! I sure wish someone would have given me the V-8 pop in the forhead about this a few years ago!

Walmart also has thier Equate brand which is cheap and easy to use on the road. No water needed. I use them every day to remove makeup and when wrapped around a chop stick they're great for touching up boo-boos!

seconded! Also, purity made simple from philosophy will take off anything with relative ease, but it's actually designed to be a cleanser.

I swear by Take The Day Off makeup remover by Clinique, in the purple bottle. It removes all kinds of eye makeup without scrubbing. It is one of the only makeup removers I've found that will easily remover eyelash glue.

olive oil does wonders for removing eye makeup. the mac makeup remover towelettes are really good too.

I love MAC wipes. They get off everything, no matter what it is, sans the scrubbing. And they don't smear mascara everywhere.

you can also use a prep for you skin before you put on your makeup. Derma Shield is often used in Theater and helps to prevent the wear and tear on your skin which is often what leads to break outs. It can be used all over the body, and it great using before you apply your make up. Im in a hurry so i cant write much about it how, but hear is a link to give you a quick look at it. http://www.dermashield.co.uk/derma_shield_overview.htm manda x

I use Mary Kay eye make-up remover and its great. Doesnt dry out your skin and its safe for sensitive skin and contact lesnses. I love it. some makeup removers you have to go over the same area a few times to get it off, and that stresses the skin, but Mary Kay just glids over, and it works very well on waterproof make up as well. :)

I use regular lotion on cotton balls or q-tips. I've used facial lotion, cocoa butter lotion, and the lubriderm for sensitive skin (no dyes, no fragrance, etc.) and they all work the same for me. But I would suggest a fragrance free etc. lotion for sensitive people. It has removed the fastest and easiest for me since I was 8 yrs. old and just started wearing makeup. It works wonderfully on the waterproof make up as well. I usually remove the gunk with lotion, wash my face like normal, then re-lotion to moisturize. I'm cheap and usually broke, so anything I already have around the house that I can use...is just right for me. I hate buying things that only have one purpose. GAH! :P

just FYI..... the cosmetic industry buys and uses mineral oil, and petroleum that are purchase from fast food restaurants. This is done through a broker! Did you ever think about what McDonald's does with their left over french fry oil???? AND yes, they dry out your skin instead of softening it. the industry thrives on this.....we continue to buy more things. Ever notice that when you use chap stick, you lips seem to dry out more often. It isn't because you need it, it is because the mineral oil or petroleum is drying you out, causing you to use it more often....therefore buying more. Olive or vegetable oil is the best to use. Our skin is the largest organ, and should be treated as such. I am off my soap box now....thank you for listening......but really, check it out.......

This is the same problem with Ponds since it uses mineral oil. I was using it for a while, and I loved the way it really did get everything off without stripping my skin. But I developed some kind of contact allergy to it, not sure if was the mineral oil or something else in it. But I did find a local store here that carries herbal cold cream. It's the same idea, but it uses jojoba and peach kernel oils instead of mineral oil.

Ditto on the baby oil. It is mineral oil with fragrance in it. Mineral oil is a petroleum product. Petroleum products are not good for the skin. That is why the Walgreens "noxema" is better than Noxema, (at least, last time I bought it). Walgreens one does not have mineral oil. If you want to use an oil, find a natural oil high in vitamin E (tocopherols). Sunflower and safflower are good and you just buy them at the grocery store (next to the Crisco and Wesson oil)! Almond oil is good, but hard to find around here. I just mix in my aromatherapy oils with these oils. There are some really great books out there that tell you how to use them!

Actually, baby oil is NOT good for dry skin...believe me, I have some of the driest skin on this planet and have tried pretty much everything on the market for it...and baby oil is one of the worst!!! Natural oils, such as sesame oil, are much better...but nothing has worked like Neutrogena Emulsion...not the hand stuff, but the body cream...do yourself a favour and get rid of the baby oil...it's horrible!!! Sorry about the bit off topic...do continue...:-D

I second the olive oil. It works great (no matter your skin type). Just apply, let sit for a few seconds, and wipe off gently with a clean face cloth or cotton balls.

Neutorgina has one identical to Mary Kays for half the price and it is awesome. It is silcom based and you just shake and pour. I HIGHLY recommend it. I have also tried others and have found nothing better but I can only usually find it at Walmart and sometimes Target. Don't know why walgreens does not carry it.

Walgreens' version of Noxema. It is better than Noxema! Also Olive oil.

I've had success with Origins Mint Wash: rub it on with a little water to make a lather, leave it for a moment or two, then add more water and rinse off. Glycerin soap works too, but there's still some scrubbing involved.

Lancome's Bi Facil - removes waterproof eye makeup, non-irritating, and doesn't dry your delicate skin around the eye area either.

If you can find Albolene, it's the best I've found. It's a very old brand...been around a long time and has no scent, colours or other irritants and it melts on skin contact.

Hello, all! I'm writing to find out what sort of eye make up remover you would recommend. With all the eye-liner, shadow, and mascara, the only thing that seems to kind of work is scrubbing, which cannot be good for the sensitive skin around the eyes. I've tried several different ones, and they all seem pretty weak to me-- I still have to resort to scrubbing. Thanks for your time!
