Doen anyone know of a good makeup remover that works well? I've been using these Dove wet towels that come in a pack, but they don't work to well.

I was given two pots of vanilla Signature Club A makeup meltdown. The scent was divine and worked like a charm.

Keep in mind, I don't wear much makeup to begin with since I have a nice complexion. I use a little blush, lipstick, mascara and sometimes shadow; so, I can easily wash with liquid antibacterial soap and my face is makeup free in no time.

I use Mary Kay's eye makeup remover. It is great. It's gentle and leaves the eye area feeling like satin. I've used it for the past 10 years.

Adrien Arpel's Signature A meltdown is excellent as is Mary Kay's eye makeup remover. The meltdown can be used on the eyes, but I prefer MK. MK also has cloths that are very good. I take them when I travel, but sometimes I use them at home, especially with the heat we have been having. My face just feels cleaner.

I have always just used baby oil to remove mascara. I have tried other things, but I really prefer that. (I just wash the rest of my face with soap.)

This is only for eye-makeup removal, but Maybelline non-oily remover in the blue bottle is THE only one I use. I tried everything on the market, and this is a stand-out. You can literally take your eye makeup off and reapply, with no burning or residue.

I vote either Mary Kay or Body Shop... Do NOT use baby oil... do you really want OIL in your EYE????

I've used Ponds Cold Cream for years. It's cheap and works wonderfully with a warm washcloth.
I use quite a bit of makeup, including mascara.

I second that. It's the only one I use to take off my mascara. For the rest, I use Crabtree and Evelyn jojoba soap for my face.

I use Avon's eye makeup remover or Clinique's. Soap for the rest of my face.
