Removing eyeliner aaaahhhhh!

[madkitty]

I have recently found a new obsession in the L'Oreal HIP kohl eyeliners - these guys are incredible and stay on all day

in fact they stay on so much that Im having real problems removing them from my waterline at the end of the day

I like to soak my eyes in a pad doused in remover (yep I use a good one) rather than rubbing but I cant seem to find a trick for getting the blighters from my upper and lower waterline...can anyone help

I'd also love to know the answer, I've always had a problem with this. =/

If my MU remover doesnt work.
I reach for my Vaseline. It always does the trick for me

(Just try not to poke your eye out with the Q-tip lolz)

oh oh, I should try these.. lol. I use Stila 24/7 and several others which all fade during the day. I just ordered one (sigh) cause I wasn;t sure of the color -- I think it;s Pervasive? ... and will see how that works. Would a cotton swab with visine on it help remove it from waterline? I would not use an oily product on this (like Bifacils which I have used for years) but then it might work.. good luck!

Well, if you don't like that mini moisturizing layer, you could always just wash your face lolz. I like leaving a thin layer on to just give it a bit of moisture but if you're prone to w/e you're prone to, I guess you could always wash it off lolz

HTH

Hey guys, try using Lancome's bi-facil (by using the same trick -- soaking eyes in a wet pad for 30 seconds). It's a tad expensive though (esp. for a makeup remover) it's about 30$ for 150 ml (I think?!), but for about the same size, you can also try a cheaper brand called Marcelle which works just as great! It's a steal for about 12-13 bucks!

unrefined coconut oil works wonders for me. makes the liner just slide ride off and doesnt have the skin either.

I soak the end of a q-tip in contact lens solution and run it over my water line. Work great and won't irritate your eyes.

I use vaseline and I find it feels less "oily" than most makeup removers.

I just put the vaseline on and then wipe it off with a damp cotton ball or cotton pad.

I use baby oil to take off my makeup and so far it has removed all kinds of makeup. It's cheap and good for sensitive skin! Maybe u can try that?

I do the same thing and it works wonders

I use extra virgin olive oil and it completely removes all my eyemakeup every time. Maybe try that with a q-tip.

Will visine work just as good

I use Too Faced Lash Injection Antidote.

It's supposed to pair with said mascara but it works GREAT for taking of all sorts of stuff. I tend to layer on my liner and this stuff swipes it right off, bottom lash line too.

vasaline and wipe it off with a cotton pad and cetaphil
