Baby shampoo is the best eye makeup remover. Recommended by my dermatologist.

The best makeup remover I've found is Elizabeth Arden's Cleansing Oil. It melts all makeup - even waterproof mascara - easily. Too many other makeup removers were either too harsh, or left behind eye makeup. Not this one, and it leaves your skin clean and soft.

I love Burt's Bees' Facial Cleansing Towelettes - they come in several scents - the grapefruit is really nice.

I also use argan oil as a makeup remover and on my hair and nails. I find t really helps to strengthen both. I have tried a few brands but I've found maple holistic and it has become my current favorite. https://www.mapleholistics.com/produ...ums/argan-oil/

I buy my argan oil at Whole Foods. I don’t remove makeup with it; I apply it and leave it on during the day and at night.

Absolutely 2nd this recommendation. Not only does it take your makeup off with ease, it does a good job of not stripping your face of its moisture. The best part? You can easily do a facial massage (for anti-aging) with it while simultaneously removing the makeup. DHC also sells a cotton swab product that has -I think- a similar product to the deep cleansing oil built into it for perfecting your eyeliner and removing small mistakes.

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover will gently dissolve even waterproof mascara...very thorough but gentle on the eye area. Apply with a cotton makeup remover pad. Walgreens has a copycat brand, identical but cheaper.

Cetaphil moisturizing lotion. Needed something to remove makeup wash face when I hadn't been planned on spending night at Mom's and didn't bring my stuff. There was some of this in the bathroom. It worked extremely well. I even can rinse off with water. I liked it so much I got a bottle of it to use at home as both a cleanser and moisturizer for face.

Are you talking about The Ceramide Replenishing cleansing oil? Does it really take off waterproof mascara easily without a lot of rubbing? I've tried many of the products mentioned in this thread and although some of them do work, most generally take a lot of rubbing on my eyes. I only wear waterproof mascara. I've been using the Neutrogena for a while now and it works well but, again, more rubbing across my eyes than I care for. I'm in my 60s and the lids don't spring back to where they were, lol. I saw on Amazon it has a lot of good reviews.

The Neutrogena eye makeup remover has to sit on the skin for a few minutes in order to dissolve the eye makeup. You have to be patient, and move it around gently with fingertips, then a cotton pad. I follow up by gently washing eye area with baby shampoo, dab dry, then apply eye cream.
