Maybelline Eye Makeup Remover Review

This was one of my first makeup removers. I used this to remove my eyeliner and lip makeup. I thought the bi-phase was really cool and looked nice on my dresser, because of that I repurchased it. It did a good job of removing my eyeliner and lip makeup, I used a lot of Maybelline retractable eyeliner which wasn't coming off my foaming cleanser. This took it off easily and with less tugging and I didn't have black smudges the next day. It also didn't sting my eyes or make my eyes all blurry. Since then I have discovered micellar water and oil cleansers which are good for my whole face and I get more product for my buck. But this does remove heavy eye and lip makeup.

I brought this off Chemist Warehouse and it didn't actually show on the site how much produxt you were actually getting I didn't think it would be a huge bottle but I did not think it was going yo be that little either! It definitely works and takes off make up but I think if your going yo use something like this I would just use a micellar water you get alot more product and does the same thing. I don't think I will repurchase this I was just interested in trying it out I still prefer a good makeup balm.

I bought this a while ago and have only just finished it. I would use it when I was travelling for special events and knew I would be wearing a lot make up but wasn't sure I would be able to wash my face properly.

It's simple to use. You shake the bottle so the product is well mixed then pour out onto a cotton pad and simply wipe all your make up away. I found it didn't irrate my eyes which was ideal.

One thing to note is that it does leave a kind of oily residue on your skin, but this also feels kind of moisturising so maybe that is intentional.

I probably wouldn't buy this again with all of the other product options on the market, but it was good while it lasted.

This makeup remover makes quick work without being too harsh! After shaking it up, I soak a makeup wipe with the makeup remover and gently press it on my eye lids for several seconds before wiping away. Never experience irritation in the eye, obviously making sure my eyes are closed when wiping.

It’s pretty good at its job. It sometimes takes a few goes with waterproof mascara or eyeliner though. Doesn’t irritate my eyes.

Once upon a time I bought a waterproof mascara that was so waterproof that nothing would get rid of it easily without seriously rubbing my eyes to bits. Micellar water didn't make a dent in it, jojoba oil seemed to turn it into flakes and needed a lot of rubbing. After hunting high and low I found this: Maybelline Make up remover for lips and eyes. Wow! This stuff takes off any and every waterproof eye product, cream eye shadows (MAC and Maybelline) and long last staining lipstick... it's great!

It ranges in price, depending where you find it, from $6 to $9. When I see it on sale I grab a bottle or 2 so I never run out. I'm not sure what all the ingredients do, but there is a sort of oily layer and a watery layer. You have to give it a good shake and then apply with a cotton pad or such like. While you're using it, keep shaking it, as the mixture seperates quickly, The formula has little to no smell and even though it's highly effective, my sensitive skin has no reaction - I expected to be allergic to something blue and oily! But it's as gentle as micellar water. I pretty much stopped using micellar after I found this, and the original go-to jojoba oil just sits there waiting. Highly highly recommended!

Maybelline Make-up Remover Eye & Lip is an oil-free, fragrance free, opthalmologically and dermatologically tested make-up remover that is safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

The duo-phase blue and white liquid easily removes stubborn make-up, including long-wear and waterproof or water-resistant formulas like Bobbi Brown Gel liner, Benefit’s Push-up Liner and Maybelline’s Superstay lipsticks.

Best of all, I find that there’s no greasy residue, no stinging and no blurry vision. It’s affordable and the conveniently sized 70ml clear plastic bottle has a secure screw top lid which I find is perfect for traveling, as it doesn’t leak or take up too much space, and it’s easy to see how much is left in the bottle.

To remove non-transfer, smudge-proof make-up, I shake the bottle well before wetting a cotton pad with the remover, and then hold the wet cotton pad against my closed eyes (or lips) for 30 seconds to soften the make-up before gently wiping it off. I find by doing this, I wipe my eyes less often, so there’s less chance of tugging at the delicate skin around my eyes. Simply rinse with warm water and pat dry.

I have to admit I love the half blue half clear look of the solution before I shake it. The bottle and white writing are fairly no nonsense. This eye makeup remover works really well. I use it on a cotton bad and it gently removes even stubborn waterproof mascara completely with no raccoon residue in the morning which usually occurs even when I think it’s all removed! No need for scrubbing and rubbing! It doesn’t sting or give me blurry eyes like most removers do and doesn’t feel greasy afterwards. It’s so cheap I will always buy this again
