Best way to remove waterproof mascara?

Shelga

So I accidentally bought Max Factor False Lash Effect in its waterproof version, which I never usually do as it's impossible to take off. However, I need to get my money's worth, so ladies, what do you find the best method to take it off at the end of the day? Eye makeup remover or otherwise! Thanks!

I find eye makeup remover doesn't really work for me. Try good old baby oil or Pond's Cold Cream!

I use rapeseed oil, which is usually used for cooking. I keep a little in a travel bottle beside the sink. To remove makeup, apply to eyes and then remove with cotton wool or even loo roll (!) moistened with warm water. Cheap as chips - and good for making chips too!:D

diors eye make up remover removes ANYTHING bbut when i'm too broke to buy it(about 25 euro) i use lush ultrabland and it does the trick. I have very sensitive eyes so can't use everything. I know the dior one is ph balanced so it doesn't sting but the lush one doesn't sting me either, just a bit more messy

I love Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover For Lids, Lashes & Lips and Lancome Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover.

The Clinique one is better.

I tried this Clarins one before and it was useless, wouldn't even remove eye shadow. Thankfully it was free, so no money wasted on it.

The clinique one is very good but if you have sensitive eyes stay away. It stung the crap outta mine! :cool:

Really?

I have sensitive eyes and it doesn't bother me at all.

This is good as well, but it makes my eyes water and I didn't even use it on my eyes.

Yeah, stings mine like crazy and I don't have sensitive eyes. Maybe then it only stings non sensitive eyes! :pac:

Vaseline is your only man!!!

Just rub it into your eyelashes and then wipe off. It completely melts the mascara, it's amazing!!
