Great

This eye makeup remover is probably the best I've tried yet.

It does exactly what it promises and doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes!

The product size is decent and will give you many uses out of it!

I use this by getting a make-up removed pad, putting it over the opening and turning the bottle upside down. This provides the perfect amount of product to remove regular every-day eye makeup. A few swipes on each eye (I use a different pad for each eye) and it's all gone! It does feel a little greasy afterwards, but is easily removed with a regular facial wash. I haven't broken out from this, but I have found that it can sting my eyes a little if it gets inside! But that's expected.

Effective eye make up remover

This is a great product. I use it, my sister uses it and at least two nieces. It needs a little shake to get started but effectively and gently removes all eye makeup (and long lasting lipstick) with about four sweeps of the cotton pad. I'm sold and will always use this product.

Tips: Don't oversaturate the pad though as the solution may end up in your eyes and cause fuzzy eyesight

Best I've tried.

I have tried a few different eye makeup removers, but this is by far the best I've used. Decent sized bottle for the price and it gets rid of every trace of mascara and liner. Very gentle too. I usually end up with sore eyes from eye make up removers but this has been great. One swipe does each eye. I'm sold 10/10.

Tips: I buy this when it's on special at the Warehouse, usually $15 but get for 25% off.

Love this stuff!

This is the best product I have ever tried for removing eye make up as it does everything you could possibly ask for. It is easy to use, works effectively and doesn't sting your eyes with harsh chemicals.

The size is really good and as you only need a little each time, one bottle will last you ages. The price is great as well. Overall, no complaints and will keep repurchasing unless a better product comes along (although I doubt it).

Tips: Try not to use too much as it can leave residue around the eye area.

best i have come across

Absolutely love this product! Used it for around 6 months now, it is so easy to use, gets rid of all make up (even waterproof) with ease, and for once doesn't sting my eyes! Leaves my skin looking clean and healthy! Also love how you don't need to use a lot for it to be effective! Will keep purchasing this over and over :)

my past love

This is my ex-every-day-product (I used up about 4 bottles). Although I am no longer using it, I highly recommend it to any ladies out there who are seeking a good make up remover. Here's why I love: + it works so well on both lips and eyes + It's safe for sensitive skin + it's light and does not give an oily feeling afterwards

However, there's one thing I do not fancy: the bottle has this huge neck and I found myself constantly spilling the remover liquid which is a waste

Tips: I use a cotton piece to absorb the liquid and avoid spilling, sometimes I use a cotton buds to remove mascara.

Amazing

I loved this product!! Got my tough mascara off so easily. Only thing is it was a little oily afterwards. It was quite cool how it had the two parts that you had to shake together to mix, I'd highly recommend it.

Not the best

Hmmm is it just me?? Positives: I love the bottle & packaging ... but ... Negatives: I find the solution quite oily. How? it’s 100% oil-free?? It takes quite a bit of work to wipe off my eye makeup. And I don’t think it’s the quantity or type of makeup I use… I’ll be looking for a new one to try out.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover

Does a fantastic job at removing makeup. Leaves your eyes looking completely naked. The only thing is that it leaves a greasy layer on your skin however I just use a cotton pad and a bit of warm water to wipe it off after. I have had this for ages and still have lots left as you only need a small amount. Will definitely re purchase.

Tips: Wipe off residue with warm water and a cotton pad.

Cheap and effective

I have short, straight lashes, and using a waterproof mascara is the only way they will hold a curl from my eyelash curlers. An effective eye makeup remover is a must! The most effective ones I've tried have all had a bi-phase formula -- the "oily" part floating on top of the watery. You shake the bottle to mix the two up and use a cotton pad to remove.

The formula of Neutrogena's remover is really effective, although I find it leaves an oily residue -- much more so than its Clarins or Lancome counterparts. Not ideal if you plan on keeping your contacts in afterwards! However, at $15 for 112mls (Clarins is $46 for 125ml; Lancome is $66 for 125ml), that's a minor quibble.

The bottle design is simple and no-nonsense; my one complaint is that the opening is quite wide. It really needs a smaller opening to avoid wastage.

I also don't like that this contains benzalkonium chloride. They've obviously used it at a low enough concentration for it to not be toxic to humans, but it is toxic to marine life. I've started using plain oils to remove eye makeup, but will keep this around as a back up.

Tips: Leave the cotton pad on your eye for around ten seconds to let the remover dissolve your eye makeup more effectively. This avoids rubbing and tugging at the skin.

This is sometimes on sale in the supermarket for around $10.
