skin. Ophthalmologist tested, it is also safe for contact lens wearers. Simply soak a cotton pad with remover, press down softly on the lashes for a few seconds so the formula soaks in, and then slowly move the pad across the eyes.

Good, but I can't get behind the "oil-free" claim.

I really like this product. I'd tried a few eye makeup removers and found them problematic because I had to scrub to get mascara off. This one doesn't suffer from this problem. If I have particularly hard set makeup, I do leave the makeup pad sitting over my eye for a second before I begin wiping the makeup off. I don't think this is oil free, because the liquids separate in the bottle, and also because my skin feels decidedly oily after using it (this is one reason I'd like to give micellar water a shot - though judging from the name it probably isn't much different). If it doesn't include any oil products, it certainly includes products that feel and behave like oils. I will definitely continue to use this brand of makeup remover. It's effective and gentle on my skin, even if I don't think it's strictly "oil-free".

Tips: My lashes are very long, so often when I apply mascara they curl up and plant it under my eyebrows or below my eyes. Dipping a cotton bud in makeup remover is a really effective way to remove stuff like that.

Makeup remover

I think this is a great makeup remover. It cleans off my eye makeup so easily and I don't have to be tugging at my eyelashes. I do find that my eyes get warm when I use it, like I'm a step away from it starting to burn as I have really sensitive skin. But I just rinse with cold water after and it's fine. I also have to rinse with water after because it leaves this oily residue on my skin which I'm not really sure what it is as it's supposed to be oil free. But apart from that I love it and will keep on using it.

Fab, but not for me

I have to say I think this is a fabulous eye makeup remover.

It makes removing waterproof mascara a breeze (which as we know can be quite stubborn to remove).

I like to leave the cotton pad on my eye for about 10 seconds before wiping the makeup away.

It is very gentle and there is no stinging which is great. But, the remover leaves an ‘oily’ residue after use even though it is meant to be oil-free …so not too sure what it is if it’s not oil?

The only downfall for me is that overtime it left my eye area very dry (skin flaking kind of dry) so unfortunately for that reason I won’t be repurchasing it.

Good price and a little goes a long way so it lasts a while.

Undecided

I have bought this product a couple of times, not because I love it, mostly because I am so undecided about it. I find I have to use a lot of the product to remove my eye make up, also the makeup pads soak up a lot. You definately need to place the make up pad over your eyes & hold for awhile then swipe gently. I have to use a combination of make up pads & cotton buds otherwise I wake up with panda eyes from remaining residue. I really like the texture of the remover, it feels very smooth & silky around the eye once the makeup has been removed, it doesn't sting at all which I am happy about as I have very sensitive eyes. I would prefer the bottle had a small dripper or cap where you could control the amount that was coming out, it would make it a lot easier to use. I think next time around I'll purchase another product to compare, it might help me to decide if this will be a future repurchase.

Tips: Rinse your eyes with warm water after use, as you might have a slight oily residue afterwards.

Favourite

This makeup remover is my favorite that I have tried so far. I like it because it effectively removes all makeup EASILY without having to use a million cotton pads and loads of the product. I feel like it is a bit lighter than some other makeup removers I have used previously which I like as I feel like it will not make me break out like other oilier products sometimes do.

I have used this product for a about two years now and use it when I have a full face of heavy or stubborn makeup on that face wash alone will not remove. I have also in the past used it on clients whilst I have been freelancing and have found it great to use on everyone that I have used it on.

I think this product is value for money and will continue to use it as it continues to do its job for me! Great product!

Leaves Skin Feeling Oily

An amazing product yes and I use it everyday and will continue to use it, but this product proudly claims it leaves no oily residue. It does. However this is not a problem for me as I tend to wash my face anyway after using it to make sure all my make up is gone. It sure does remove waterproof mascara quickly with minimal eye rubbing which I love though!

Tips: Wash face after using to remove any left over oily feeling from the make up remover.

Gentle and Best Make up Remover

Neutrogena Oil-Free Makeup Remover is fantastic. It takes off all sorts of makeup! Light or heavy. When I go out, I'll usually wear false lashes, eyeliner and lots of mascara, so already I know it will be quite the task to get it all off when I come home. But with a few swipes of remover on a cotton pad and its all sweeped away. I was actually blown away on how effective it actually is. It lasts for a long time too. Remember to give it a shake and away you go :)

Best of the best!

This remover is hands down the best I have ever come across. It removes EVERYTHING, even the most waterproof of products, without scrubbing, and without leaving behind a weird oily residue. It's gentle on the eye area, even with sensitive skin, and is a bargain for the price. A bottle lasts a long time too and is the perfect size.

Tips: For easy waterproof mascara removal - shake the bottle, moisten a cotton pad, and gently hold the pad against your eye. Holding it against it, helps soften up the waterproof formula and makes swiping it off a total breeze

Gentle makeup remover

This makeup remover truly does what it claims. I apply mine with whatever is handy to me at the time, be it a cotton ball/pad or a tissue. It does not irritate my eyes no matter how much I use, is non greasy and goes a long way. I have applied makeup straight after using this product and it does not cause the newly applied makeup to smudge. I use this every day for light or heavy makeup use and it does the job without causing any drying to my under eye area. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to a friend.

Tips: Make sure the formula is shaken together properly before use for best results.
