I've been using this for years and it's the best one I have ever used, and I've tried a few. It even takes off waterproof mascara in a jiffy, no dragging or rubbing. It leaves a bit of an oily film but that's easy to remove with cleanser once you've taken off your eye make up. There is little or no fragrance and I've not noticed any eye irritation at all and I do get that with some other products. The bottle is a good size, easy to open and lasts for months so very affordable. Great product.

Tips: Wet a cotton pad then soak with the remover and hold and lightly press over the eye for a few moments, then swipe off. Viola!
I got a bottle of this as a gift with purchase a while ago now and I have to say its possibly the best lip/eye makeup remover I've ever tried - that's a big call to make!
I use this in conjunction with Clinique's Take the Day off balm and in my opinion its the perfect combination! I love the simple but pretty purple and silver packaging, it does the job and looks nice.
This remover doesn't have any detectable fragrance like most Clinique skincare products, which I love, especially in eye/lip products! I feel that heavily scented products aren't very good for my face, let alone sensitive areas like eyes and lips.
You only need to use a small amount of this stuff on a cotton round and its super efficient! I find mascara and eyeliner come off without having to scrub at my eyes which is great. I like to hold the wet pad to my eye for a few moments to let the product work, then sweep it off.
As others have mentioned, it does tend to leave an oily film but for an oil type remover I'd be surprised if it didn't! Also, this doesn't bother me in the slightest as I always wash my face after removing makeup anyway.
It is fairly pricey but if you have trouble removing eyelash glue, waterproof eyelashes, eyeliner or have sensitive eyes then I recommend this product!! It does everything it claims, which is amazing!
Tips: If you're on a budget you can always pick up a bottle and reserve for 'full face' days :)
This is such a great product, really good for sensitive eye area but I really struggle with the price! Maybe if it was a bigger bottle...
This is one of the best, most useful beauty products I own. Using this I can remove all of my eye make up in minutes, and it couldn't be easier. It is scentless, and is soft on the eyes. I use a benefit mascara, which is otherwise almost impossible to get off, but using this its hard to believe how easy it is to fully take off.
I also use this to fully remove lip colour, and it does this so well. Other removers I have used leave a lingering colour, which is a major pain especially if you are wanting to put a new colour on top.
So effective, and only need the smallest amount to do the job, so one bottle lasts for so long
Truly amazing.
Tips: When it is on special, stock up - big time!
I'm a big Clinique fan, as their skincare seems to be perfect for me. I find their formulas tend to be gentle and non irritating on my dry, slightly combination and reactive skin.
I received a mini size of this with a gift with purchase promotion that Clinique was running. When I'm buying Clinique products I always try to time it around a gift with purchase promotion so I can try some new goodies.
The packaging is distinctively Clinique, with its lovely purple colour, silver writing, silver cap and shape. Clinique is so iconic, I have such a collection of their products now.
The formula of this is a liquid, that is like oil. I use it by popping some of the liquid on a cotton pad.
It easily removes stubborn eye makeup, eyeliner and mascara so well. Just a few gentle swipes over my eyes and it easily takes it off. That's exactly what you want in an eye makeup remover!
The formula is so gentle, no stinging eyes or tight feeling on my skin. So, this is perfect for those with sensitive skins.
As my usual cleanser doesn't do a great job of taking off stubborn eye makeup I would normally use this in conjunction with it. This product is on the pricey side, but definitely worth it in my opinion, it is very effective in removing eye makeup.
Five out of five stars.
Tips: Wait for a Clinique gift with purchase promotion.
This is the best eye make up remover I have ever used. It is so lovely and gentle around my eyes which I love. You don't have to be too heavy handed as with the texture and consistency a little goes a long way. Even when wearing night time going out eye make up, it is very easy to remove with a couple gentle wipes over your eyes. It is quite pricey but you are purchasing a very good brand and you get what you pay for. Because it works to well and efficiently you do actually save on product in the long run. It doesn't have a strong scent, just a very mild one that is pleasant.
I love love love this! I wear hard contact lenses, and typically when I use anything around my eyes I have to take out my lenses, or suffer the consequences. The Lids, Lashes & Lips was gentle enough that I can have my lenses in and gently remove my eye make-up!
It doesn't have a scent at all that I can smell, which is also a bonus when I'm doing my eye area. Previous makeup removers have had an alcohol smell, which is unpleasant.
It's very good at removing mascara and waterproof eye liner. A couple of gentle swipes with a cotton pad and poof! My eye are clean!
I love how moisturising it is, I use this in combination with my 'All About Eyes' and I can totally see an improvement in my lashes and general eye area. I'm a massive fan of this product :)
I have really sensitive eyes so it's really important for me to get ALL my makeup off before I go to bed and this totally does that. I find it infinitely more effective than makeup removal wipes and also much much gentler. You don't need much product at all either, so though it is a bit pricey, it's worth every cent IMHO. My only wee issue with it is the oily film it leaves on my face, but I cleanse after using it so not a major concern. I love the packaging and especially the child proof cap which is great when you have a 2 year old who wants to be just like mummy!
Tips: I try and purchase all my clinique products when there's a 'gift with purchase' promo running. They're pretty frequent and helps with the handing over of a lot of money if you're getting a little extra ;)
This is an oil based makeup remover, with which you have to shake prior to use. I find that this type of remover requires a little more product as the cotton pad tends to soak the bulk of the liquid.
This does a great job of removing waterproof mascara and eyeshadow. I had no problems with stinging eyes or sensitivity around the eye are like I do with other removers. I do find that this oil based type of product can leave a filmy residue on your eyes- this remover left less of a film than other supermarket brands Ive tried.
While I find this gentle and effective I have come to prefer using micellar water as an eye makeup remover so would probably not repurchase. In addition I do think that supermarket branded removers do as good a job at removing makeup at a cheaper price, although I do think this is gentler than most and less inclined to leave behind a oily film which may make the extra spend more worthwhile.
Love love this product!! In the past I've had problems with eye make up removers irritating my skin or burning my eyes and this does neither! More of an oil rather than a cream, so only need a tiny amount (and lasts for ages as long as you don't spill the bottle :P ) Can leave my skin with a greasy feel which I normally hate, but I use this at night so don't mind as much. Also has next to no fragrance/taste so very appropriate for eyes and lips!
Tips: Only need a tiny amount on a make up remover pad!
