Eye make up remover?

[heightsyankee]

I don't wear much more than mascara on the average day but when we go out I like a great eye with total drag queen lashes (courtesy of Dior Show Total Blackout). I have yet to find an eye makeup remover that works for me. I tried Chanel (my everyday mascara is Chanel) and Dior thinking the matching brand might work best for their own product. Fail. Honestly, the thing that works the best is Vaseline but I hate the way my face feels when I wake up in the morning...

Laura Mercier is working ok but I still have to use remover, wash my face with cleanser and then wipe with remover AGAIN. To really get my eyes clean, they practically have to be sore by the end.

Any words of wisdom?

I use Jojoba oil and it works great. I splash a little water on my face then wipe with a cotton round that has jojoba oil on it. It works so well I don't plan to ever try anything else.
I order it from Amazon.

Coconut oil rubbed on a cotton ball

I use either jojoba oil or Boscia Makeup Breakup cleanser. Both do a great job.

I've heard great things about Mary Kay's makeup remover

Mary Kay's eye make-up remover is the best, I love it. FTR I do not sell Mary Kay, but I used to about 2 years ago. This and the under the eye cream are the only products I continue to use.

I like the pads by Neutrogena. I wear probably too much mascara and they've never had a problem getting rid of my raccoon eyes.

Boots #7 from Target. Cheap, effective, gentle and doesn't need to be rinsed off afterward.

Before I realized that Diorshow was causing some major allergic reactions, i was using it and was removing it using the blue Makeup Forever remover - works like a charm to remove ANY makeup. And it feels nice, too. Not greasy or oily, but not drying. Love that stuff.

Neutrogena oil-free makeup remover (the dual-phase one, usually sold by the makeup)

Clinique take the day off makeup remover (also a dual-phase one, and my current favorite)

Another fan of Mary Kay here - it's the best I've found that doesn't irritate my eyes, yet still removes my waterproof mascara.

This made me sad for you

My SIL sells MK, so I think I'll throw her a little sale and buy some of that. Thanks for the ideas. Nice to have a list to try. If nothing here works, I'm gonna guess I need to ratchet back the drag queen eyes!

I use plain old baby oil to remove my eye makeup. I put it on a cotton pad and just wipe it off. Works really well for me!

i like rimmel's. it's the only one i've found that works well and doesn't leave an oily residue.

Same works just as well as any expensive brand remover ive ever used.

Baby shampoo. I've used it for years. It's the only thing that completely removes my eye makeup.

Bifacil is the only thing that will work for me, but it irritate my eyes sometimes. I usually still have to use the neutrogena wipes after to makes sure everything is off. I don't wear that much eye makeup but its impossible to get off my eyes no matter what brand makeup I use. I have tried everything and Bifacil is the only thing that really works.
