Good value for money

I've used this in the past and recently re-purchased it as it has been very difficult to find the usual eye makeup remover I use.

I wear eyeliner and the occasional mascara and all I do is shake the bottle, dip a cotton tip into the bottle and clean off my makeup, Everything comes off without much effort at all!

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover

This has been my staple eye makeup remover for a couple of years now. The only time I don't buy this is when I've been irresponsible enough to run out completely when my local shop is out of stock.

I wear pretty heavy dark eye makeup daily and this does a great job at getting it all off without having to go to too much effort. That's the biggest plus for me for two reasons:

a) I'm lazy as hell and don't want to be messing around with anything too difficult or time consuming at bedtime.

b) I hate having to scrub around my delicate eye area.

It's a reasonable sized bottle that normally lasts me 1-2 months. I like the simple packaging with the screw top lid too. It makes it easy to get every last drop out of the bottle.

Another thing I like is that the dual phase formula stays mixed together for the duration of the time it takes me to cdlean both eyes. I find it infuriating with some other brands when the formula separates before you go to put some more on a cotton ball to do the other eye. Then you have to muck around putting the lid back on and shaking it up again to do the other eye.

This is my clear favourite of the supermarket brands. I will definitely carry on buying it for years to come unless someone shows me a better performer in the same price category.

Works so well!

Removes waterproof mascara and even stubborn so nicely and leave my face makeup free! Is definitely the best makeup remover i have ever used and have repurchased about 10 times and i don't think i will ever find another makeup remover as good as this one.

Unimpressed

I'm glad other people have found success with this product but I gave up on it a while back. Maybe they've updated their formula since then? I bought it a few times but was never satisfied with its removal power. It makes claims that it can't keep, it would barely smudge my waterproof mascara, and gel liner? Forget about it!

Tips: Try baby oil instead.

So handy

I'm a big fan of the fact that this product removes all eye makeup i.e waterproof mascara, eyeliner etc but doesn't irritate your eyes. It's SO gentle! It does require a couple of swipes to get it off (what makeup remover doesn't?!), but you don't have to rub hard at all.

The only drawback is that i find I have to use quite a bit for each use, but I mean I use it daily and it still lasts about 1-2 months so it's not really an issue, especially if you can buy it on special.

Tips: Make sure you shake it before every use!

perfect for sensitive skin

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.

FINALLY NO STINGING

Alrighty I've tried quite a few eye make up removers and basically all of them, no matter what they claim, made my eyes sting and go red and itch and all the rest of it. But not only does this product NOT sting my eyes, it also WORKS. It's so incredibly easy for me to take off my eyeshadow (including cream eyeshadows), my waterproof liquid eyeliner, my pencil eyeliner that's super hard to take off and best of all, my mascara. Why is my mascara best of all? Because, ladies, I use They're Real mascara. That's right. The only claim it doesn't fulfill is the fact that it DOES leave an oily residue behind.

Update: It is now March and the last couple of days I have used this it has stung/made my eyes itchy. I'm thinking it's probably just gone bad? I'm almost to the bottom. If you've had this kind of trouble please let me know.

Tips: Having trouble taking off mascara or eyeliner? Pour over an old mascara wand and run through your lashes after removing your eye make up as normal, then leave it on to break down the make up, then wipe away with a cotton pad. It makes removing mascara a lot easier and also kind of coniditions your lashes.

Staple

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.

Tips: Shake it really well before use to mix all the product up together, as the formula separates in the bottle.

Gentle yet extremely effective

Bought this last week and I'm in love with it already! It's so gentle on my sensitive eyes and there's no redness/irritation afterwards whatsoever. I get a cotton ball and soak it in the remover then hold it against my eyes for a few seconds. Then a few wipes and everything's gone! It even gets rid of all my waterproof eyemakeup. It claims to be oil free and despite looking as if half of it is oil, it actually feels very light and fresh. The smell is very faint and not unpleasant.

Neutrogena Oil Free eyemakeup remover

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
