Dupe for MUFE Sens'Eyes

[greeneyedgirl107]

I've been using MAKE UP FOR EVER - Sens’Eyes - Waterproof Sensitive Eye Cleanser

for years.  I just bought a new bottle, only to discover the formula has been changed and it's inferior.  I've tried several other eye makeup removers over the years with varying success.  Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks!

I've had decent (but not wonderful) results with  Lancôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover 4.2 oz/ 125 mL Philosophy Just Release Me; and to a lesser extent

Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover, Neutrogena Eye Makeup Remover Lotion Hydrating, Maybelline Expert Eyes.

I haven't had luck with Bliss Makeup Melt, Too Faced Mascara Melt-Off, Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water, Neutrogena Extra Gentle Eye Makeup Remover Pads.

@greeneyedgirl107  SEPHORA COLLECTION - Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover

is comparable to the Lancome, I also really liked Almay Longwear & Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover. The Almay comes in pre-soaked pads too, there is also an oil free version.

Thanks for the plethora of info @suzyo !  My search begins 😛

Good luck @greeneyedgirl107 . I prefer balms now a days but these were my most frequently purchased. They fit my criteria of being able to rub it in my eyes without irritating them, and working quickly. I'm always amazed when a makeup remover makes my eyes sting. If I ever choose to go back to liquid remover I would by one of these:)

@suzyo I'm wondering if I should look into balms.  Which ones do you like, and how to do you use?  I've watched videos, and it looked the they were more appropriate for the face then eyes; but I could have been mistaken.  Thanks so much!

@greeneyedgirl107   CLINIQUE Take The Day Off™ Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm 3.8 oz/ 125 mL

FARMACY - Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm

I message some all over my face and gently massage my lashes, then I take a warm damp cloth and wipe it all off. Then I go in with a second cleanser. You can add water and emulsify it, then rinse instead of using a cloth, but I feel like I get better results with the cloth. If your skin is sensitive to fragrant ingredients, I would go with something like the Clinique. I've used other balms, but I'm drawing a complete blank on them right now. If I remember them, I'll post them.

PS: you could just use them on your eyes if you wanted, that's how I first started using them, because I didn't always wear foundation. The jar would last you forever too.
