What eye makeup remover do you use?
I've tried a lot of eye makeup removers in the past & have found I really like the target brand one (similar to loreal, but I prefer it over the loreal one). But since I started wearing MAC e/s I find my eye area gets red & irritated when I use the remover. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? And what remover do you use & love?

I love Almay Non-Oily Eye Make-Up Remover Pads. They are super cheap (like $5 for a huge stack of em). I've been using them for years, and haven't needed to look for anything else. You can get them at Walgreens, Walmart, anywhere!

I think the one I have right now is Neutrogina? But I'll use any brand as long as it's oil-free. I hate that nasty residue it leaves behind, even though I wash my face right after, it just bothers me for some reason.

mac wipes. they're amazing and get everything off, including pro longwear, plus they're not greasy like the clease-off oil, which i absolutely despise.

my mom got me mary kays new one and i am liking it thus far it takes away all the mascara and i also use lancaster eye makeup remover...the latter is very refreshing while mary kay is a bit greasy... but i usually wash my face after removing makeup so greasy feeling or not it doesn't bother me

If I'm in a hurry, MAC eye make-up remover or L'Oreal gentle long wear/waterproof ma remover. If I have more time to pamper myself, I use MAC cleanse-off oil

Clinique Take the Day Off. I really like it; even though it is sort of oily, it works wonders so I don't have any troubles getting all my makeup off.

never use vaseline around your eyes hon. it can clog your pores, and also will trap any bacteria that's already lingering, which can cause really nasty styes and infections. i've gone on a myspace rampage to stop those girls from using vaseline around their eyes.
anyway, I use Target make up removing wipes and Clinique Take The Day Off

I also use Almay, but the one for waterproof make-up bc I wear waterproof mascara. I like it as well, I'm on my 2nd bottle right now and have no need to look any further. It doesn't sting my eyes at all and gets everything off.

Really? I've never had any problems before but I started doing that because the skin around my eyes is sensitive so once my make up is removed I use it to prevent bruising and breakage. And yeah to catch the left behind eyeliner and shadow.

I use L'ancome Bi-Facil. It seems to be the only thing that shifts L'ancome mascaras properly.

I only use Philosophy's Purity Made Simple cleanser- so in other words, nothing special for makeup removal. In my experience though, it lives up to its claims and really seems to "melt" makeup off my skin.
