Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover Review

Out of all the reviews I’ve done so far this product would be in my top 5 of products that I would highly recommend – it surprises me because it's not a makeup item but it definitely deserves the honour.

I haven't come across a product that has effectively removed my eye makeup without me having to go to war with the dreaded eyeliner or mascara that just won’t come off. I used to hate the task of removing eye makeup but this product has changed all that for me.

I go for gold now with charcoal black liner whether it’s tightlining or black smokey (work-in-progress haha) and I have no issues walking out of my bedroom with a fresh pair of eyes. Goodbye black stained eyes!

I kid you not, this product is truly cream of the crop; crème de la crème; the sun to my moon hahaha! On top of that it is affordable and you can buy it from your local supermarket (Countdown); it’s not often you get amazing products so readily available.

I lightly wet a cotton pad with the product (you don’t need to use much) and just place it on my eyelid with a very gentle press here and there and viola your smokey eye has been removed. What you would normally consider as stubborn; will be a piece of cake for this remover.

There is a light oily residue (but depends on how much of the product you use) but it’s not a deal breaker because then I cleanse my face straight after. The residue is not sticky and can be easily wiped away. I have oily sensitive skin so this is nothing compared to what other products have left me with.

No other eye makeup remover comes close to this product!

Really great for removing stubborn eye make up, though you do have to rest the cotton soaked pad on your eye for a while (10sec minimum) to have it truly wipe everything away. The only issue I have had in using this product is the 'non oily' claims, I don't think that I am using too much of the product, but I always feel like I have bathed my eye area in a vat of oil after use! This is easily taken care of by then washing my face again, however it is a bit of a let down.

This is perfect for those with sensitive skin. I use 1 cotton pad per eye and yes you have to be gentle but it really does remove all the make up without any residue. Unlike some you may use this one I didn't need to scrub to get the make up off. Love it. It does leave a light film which I actually quite like as I felt my eyes are getting moisturizers without me having to add more.

This is a great product. It is so gentle, yet removes all traces of my very solid waterproof mascara! It has a lovely fresh, light scent and the price is great for how long it lasts but that is probably from how I only put a couple of drops on a cotton pad and leave on my closed eyes for a few seconds. I've had no break outs from using this regularly but I do find it quite oily... but it does the job great

It removes my makeup without irritating my eyelids. It works well on waterproof eye makeup even though it takes a few extra wipes. It is claimed to be oil-free, it does leave an oily feel, (it is the oil that removes the makeup, not a big deal). It does not dry out my delicate skin around my eyes, does not sting my eyes. Highly recommend.

This was my first ever eye makeup remover and I found it to be highly effective. I do find that I like to cleanse after it as I do find that it leaves a bit of an oily residue. It easily removes liquid eyeliner and waterproof mascara which is always a pain to get off. It doesn't hurt or dry out the skin around my eyes so its a lovely product, I have since moved on to Micellar waters as they don't leave that 'oily/ residue.

This makeup remover is great. It removes all of my eye makeup gently, there's not a lot to say about it besides it being a good makeup remover

Love this product!! Easy to use, and leaves my eyes feeling moisturised. It's great as its oil based and doesn't irritate my eyes. Gets my eye make up off perfectly. I only use it around my eyes though as it seems to oily to use anywhere else

Product does a great job at removing eye makeup and at a really affordable price. I did feel that my skin felt oily afterwards which I didn't like. It felt like I then had to cleanse again to get rid of the oil. Will finish the bottle, but I don't think I'll be purchasing again.

This is so easy to use, it doesn't pull on your skin and definitely removed everything including waterproof mascara. I use this with a cotton pad and all liner traces are erased with ease. It doesn't sting my eyes or irritate the delicate skin around my eyes like other products can and leaves no residue. Its low cost and easily found in most supermarkets. A little goes a long way so its a great staple to a beauty regime.
