What do you use to remove your waterproof mascara? Would you recommend it? How much is it, and where can you get it?

I use the neutrogena makeup wipes to remove all of my makeup, eye and face, but it doesn't remove my waterproof mascara. I don't like using any type of remover with an oily consistency because they leave a film on the eyes that I feel is unhealthy. So I am in the market for a product that is oil free and will take off waterproof mascara without any rubbing. Any suggestions?

I have used this remover for YEARS I swear by it and wouldn't buy anything different- its Clarins Eye Makeup Remover, available in most good stores I usually get it in Debenhams but found this link for you :)

Clarins? Ok I'll check it out. Is it in a bottle or is it a wipe or cream?

MUFE Sense Eyes takes ANYTHING off! Their MUFE Smokey Lash mascara has been the MOST DIFFICULT I've ever had to take off, ever! Their eye makeup removing lotion works wonders, and I don't experience any fall out w/ my lashes because I'm not scrubbing or tugging to get it off. It's pricey, but it's a sure bet.  =)

Don't waste your money on eye makeup removers! Just use baby oil! I used to buy Lancome's eye makeup remover, and don't get me wrong, it was AMAZING! But baby oil works JUST AS WELL and is like $3 for a huge bottle that lasts me almost a year! Just put it on cotton balls and you're good to go! Takes off even lash stains and lip stains with NO EFFORT! Would never go back to high end removers...

Baby oil is the way to go. My mom has been doing it for years and I finally broke down and started using it as well. Should have done it years ago.

I agree with Tamara....Oilive Oil! I always keep some in a small bottle. It's great for cleaning cream products off of your makeup brushes as well!

I use the oil cleansing method to clean my entire face and it works GREAT for removing all eye makeup as well. I use 2 parts castor oil to one part extra virgin olive oil. My skins is actually LESS oily than before I started, no break outs, and super inexpensive :)

I have extremely dehydrated sensitive combination skin. I have tried maaaannnyyyy cleansers. I ended my search when I found the Made from Earth Green Tea Cleanser - it does not dry out your skin. And it DOES REMOVE WATERPROOF MAKEUP. Your face will thank you for it. Most people do not realise how important this first step is in caring for your skin. Get it wrong here and you won't benefit properly from the rest.
