Simple Kind to Eyes Eye Makeup Remover Reviews

I used this remover briefly whilst at my in laws as I didn't want to travel with my normal oil cleansing method and on the spur purchased this bottle at a local Countdown thinking that the brand simple has been good to me in the past so this should work great.

My eyes were so sore after using this and I didn't even have any heavy makeup on or waterproof just a simple 1 colour, flick of liner and mascara look but after using around the eye, the rims became red and it looked like I had been crying. Which they did in turn do after a couple of cold water washes, they remained dry over the next couple of days and I was so glad that I didn't have any event to go to that required myself to be dolled up as I couldn't have standed applying let alone removing makeup.

It maybe a unique reaction on my part who knows but I just know that I shalt be using this product again.

I picked this up the last time I needed an eye makeup remover because the price was right. It's packaged in a bottle like most other eye make up removers. It's not oily at all and very similar to a Micellar water with a faint smell that I find a bit chemical. It does sting my eyes a bit but not as bad as others I have tried. I mostly wear waterproof mascara and it dos not do a very good job at removing it. Even when putting a soaked cotton pad on my lids for a few seconds I still have to do a lot of scrubbing to remove my makeup. It does do the trick for regular, lightly applied mascara though but anything more than that requires a lot of work to remove with this product. Would not recommend for anyone with sensitive eyes or who regularly wears waterproof makeup.

Can't really go wrong with this and does the job! I wear pretty heavy eye make up and apply these on cotton pads and removes it pretty easily.

It is a nice eye makeup remover which doesn't contain any nasties such as fragrance or any harsh chemicals. It's also an added bonus that the packaging is quite sturdy as the lid shuts tightly- leaving less room for spilling it over.

I really like how a little goes a long way. I only have to apply a small amount to a cotton pad over my eyes which easily removed my eyeshadow and eye liner- including on my waterline. It doesn't sting unlike many other eye makeup removers that I've tried.

Although it does what it said it would, I don't like the oily residue that it leaves behind. It did say that it contains oil in it but the amount of oil it leaves makes my skin incredibly slippery and I don't like the feeling of it around my eyes. I normally have found myself having to rinse off my eyes with water to get rid of the residue, which is an additional step I was hoping to avoid!

Nonetheless, I will use it again as it effectively removes stubborn eye makeup. Would like to know if there are any other removers where an oily residue isn't left behind though.

This a bi-phase eye makeup remover - it's a water and an oil that mixes when shaken. Normally bi-phase oil and water removers have a distinct blue or green colour. Simple is a fragrance and colour free brand, so this remover is colourless. I found this effective at removing eye makeup, including a particularly stubborn mascara. Simple market this as 'No Rubbing' and I'd mostly agree with that (see tip below). The bottle also says no need to rinse. Personally, I believe in always rinsing ( even micellar water!). I don't think anyone would be comfortable not rinsing this product - it's very oily and leaves a lot of residue. Overall, it doesn't quite measure up to my favourite Elizabeth Arden remover, but it's good, especially for the price.

This product sparked my curiosity as it uses one part oil and 1 part purified water infused with gentle cleansers and multi vitamins. It comes in a 125ml (4.4 oz) bottle which I find is generous for an eye makeup remover.

You can see the separation of the water and the oil, so as per instructions, you need to shake the bottle before use for the oil and water to mix.

Some people may have a different opinion but to me, this product had little to no scent and if I were to describe the scent it had it would be 'water' or 'clean'(?!)

TRIAL 1: WATERPROOF MASCARA So the first trial was removing waterproof mascara as a large selling point for this product is that not only is it gentle but it 'dissolves waterproof makeup'. Using a cotton pad as instructed and using 4 drops of the product, I wiped this over my eyes...it states 'no rubbing needed'. It took a few wipes but I noticed that it was dissolving and removing the mascara... It took a few wipes to completely remove it but I was impressed to see that it did deliver on it's promise.

TRIAL 2: EYE LASH GLUE So, I have an addiction to fake eyelashes, so I was curious to see how this product worked against eyelash glue because even my trusty Coconut oil doesn't remove this completely. I found that the product was about 80% effective... it did remove a fair amount but there was still a little bit of residue left over, however, this is generally would I would expect, so I was still pleased with the outcome.

TRIAL 3: HIGHLY PIGMENTED EYESHADOW I used this product to remove a makeup look with pigmented shadows and a bright pink eyeliner! Similar to the mascara, it took a couple of wipes to see the product working but then it begins to remove the makeup, it's certainly not a quick process, but it does get there! There was some eyeliner left right near my lash line...but that could be to do with the cotton pad then the product itself.

CONCLUSION: I enjoyed this product and have found myself continuing to use it. It was very gentle and it DIDN'T leave me feeling like I had stripped a few layers of skinl! There was a bit of oil residue left over on the skin, which I'm sure is totally fine... but I found it a little heavy so I did wipe my eyes with a wet flannel afterwards (even though the packaging does state no rinsing needed...). I would definitely say that for those with sensitive skin I think it's worth giving this a try, however, the best thing about it is that it isn't limited to people with sensitive or dry skin etc. this product can work for everyone!

Overall, I was really happy with this product. It's great value for money and it actually does what it says it's going to do!

Well, I am actually pleasantly surprised! I don't usually use makeup removers because I find that they never seem to work easily or allow for my makeup to come off cleanly. But this product, I am actually really impressed.

The product is unscented (or lowly scented - I can't tell), nicely packaged and a great size! I usually don't bother buying eye makeup remover products to try because the packaging is too big to try and not like it. But this size is perfect (125ml) .The packaging is clean and simple (funnily enough) and does not stand out on the shelf.

The actual eye makeup remover is something different. Reading the instructions, you need to shake the bottle before use because it is a 'dual effect' remover; you need to combine the two 'ingredients'. This does seem to make the product bubble a little. I applied this product using a cotton pad and, as per the instructions, didn't scrub my eyes. Rather, I held the soaked cotton pad to my eye for a few seconds and then slowly wiped the pad from the inside of my eye to the outside. And low and behold my eye makeup was removed! One interesting thing I found was that the product left an oily feeling residue. I didn't like this at first until I washed my face and found that this residue help to remove any left over eye makeup. It also meant that my eyes didn't feel dry or sore as removing eye makeup by other means can. It really kept the sensitive skin around my eyes hydrated (something I usually have trouble with when using makeup removers)!

Now, I trialled this product on two different eye makeup occasions. The first being simply when I received this product to trial, I wanted to use it straight away but wasn't wearing any makeup. I quickly applied some eye makeup (eye shadow, eye liner and mascara) just as I would on a day to day basis (not too heavy, not too light). Removing the makeup straight after applying I found this remover took away all of the makeup with ease! One wipe and it was all gone! Despite not usually removing makeup as soon as it is applied, what this means to me is that should I make a mistake with my eyeliner when I am applying it, this remover (with a cotton bud) should easily tidy up any mistakes without irritating my eyes.

The true test was removing makeup at the end of a long day of wearing it. It did not remove it all with quite so much ease. I removed it the exact same way (a soaked cotton pad held on the eye then slowly wiping away) and there was a little eyeliner residue still remaining. This seem to disappear with one more wipe of the product and was fully removed after cleansing. So I am not disappointed with this result at all. It is by far the best eye makeup remover product I have used.

I usually don't use makeup remover products because they never seem to work and leave my skin feeling quite dry. I usually just cleanse and hope for the best. Now, however, I will definitely repurchase this product once it is gone. My usually sensitive skin is happy!

I have been repurchasing this for many years now. It does the job very well although if you’re wearing heavy eye makeup it does sometimes take a little more product to get everything off. Seriously it is amazing and affordable and in these times it makes a difference to have the best of both worlds in a product.

I love this eye make up remover!! It is fabulous! I received it in a beauty review trial and used it right away.

The packaging is beautiful and I especially loved that it read to shake well before use on the front in large lettering. I always forget to shake things before I use so the reminder was awesome to have.

It removed all of my makeup with one swipe and I did not have to rub the delicate skin around my eyes like I would with other eye makeup removers.

I could not smell a scent at all which is awesome because that means there are no extra fragrances.

Simple Kind to Eyes Eye Makeup Remover left zero residue on my eyes afterwards, it did not feel greasy or tacky at all and it was very gentle to my eye area.

I have honestly fallen in love with this product! I will absolutely be repurchasing again and recommending to all family and friends.
