I use BJ's brand of make-up remover wipes on my face and Walmart's eye make-up remover just on my eyes. Honestly, I'm not sure how great the BJ's wipes are. I notice after I wipe my face that there is still a lot of make-up on my washcloth if I wash my face after that. I think I'm going to get the Neutrogena wipes once these run out.
My favorite eye make-up remover is this:
However, it's $18/bottle and the Walmart brand is only $4.
I like the Clinique eye makeup remover, but the Sephora branded bottle I got awhile back works just as well. I have yet to find a wipe that really gets off eyeliner, though.
I shower at night and wash my makeup off with face wash.
But when I need/want to take my makeup off and it's not time to shower, I use Philosophy's Purity face wipes, or Sephora's makeup remover wipes. Both are gentle, and effective.

I use the Target make-up remover that is the knock-off of the Neutrogena and then follow up with their wipes. I can never get all my eye make-up off with just remover.
I can't believe nobody has mentioned using coconut or sweet almond oil. they're excellent values and can be used for lots of other skin-care applications. I love sweet almond oil.
You use coconut oil to remove makeup?
I use coconut oil as a moisturizer but I would think that would be a nightmare to use as an eye makeup remover.

I hate using any kind of oil to remove make-up. The feeling on my eyelids bother me. Which is why I prefer cold cream.

It's actually awesome to remove eye makeup. I just got lazy and quit the OCM.

I love Target's Up&Up makeup remover wipes. $0.99 for a pack of 10, and I can easily tuck them into bathroom cabinets/drawers, gym bag, purse, etc. They also sell single-use packs (like a handi-wipe from a restaurant) in sets of 5, near the suitcases and luggage tags.
I still love it though recently I got to try Lancome Bi-facile and I love it even more. Both are really good for my sensitive eyes and and both remove waterproof mascara. The Lancome just seems to be a little better, less rubbing needed.
I use Target's Up & Up Loreal knock-off (oil free) liquid remover with cotton pads that I keep in the bathroom. I also started buying Dove make-up remover clothes to use while I'm traveling (I travel a lot for work and went to this to reduce liquids in my carry-on).

Contact solution on a cotton ball. It's hit or miss with my waterproof mascara, but it's awesome at removing line and non-waterproof mascara. And it's obviously not going to burn if it gets in my eyes, plus it's cheap.
The Dollar Tree sells a pack of 40. They are huge when unfolded and work really, really well. I was skeptical at first, but wow...love them I think the pack is blue?
I use the Sephora brand eye makeup remover, and have been impressed. I stopped using waterproof mascara because nothing would take it off without irritating my eyes and even pulling out lashes.
I just wash my face with my normal face wash to take off any remaining makeup on my face.
