    I find the Boots one from their sensitive range brilliant.

    I love the Boots cucumber make up remover, it wasn't the eye gel one, it was another one, I can't find it on the website though. It was less than €2.

    After a while though my skin started to react to it, but I have problem skin anyway.

    i really like the boots no 7 one, it's only about 2euro with a 7.50 off voucher and lasts ages! I have very sensitive eyes and have had no problems with it:)

    I have sensitive eyes and I've been using just regular Baby Oil for the last year or so and find it great. It's one of the few things that doesn't sting my eyes.

    Ponds Cold Cream - an oldie but a goody! And super cheap :)

    Simple make up remover. It's 3 something in the shops, but most chemists have two bottles for 5 euro.

    I like the Boots No. 7, I always spend my €7.50 vouchers on it.

    Though out of laziness recently I've found the cleanser I use (Cetaphil) is brilliant for removing eye makeup. I wouldn't describe it as budget but it is a great cleanser as well.

    Vaseline will get anything off.

    I used to do this, then I found it was giving me little white lumps around my eyes. They are called Milia.
    I use the boots No7 now, and don't have that problem anymore.

    Oh the Boots Botanics one is great, it's a duo-phase one (half oil based, half water based) and it just whips everything off without you needing to rub at your eyes. Johnson's have a similar formula in an eye makeup remover but the Botanics one is much better, and it's about 4 euro. Favourite eye makeup remover, and I've tried many!

    I echo Silverspoon's comments. I couldn't find the Botanics one day so got the Johnsons one instead -it was ok, but didn't last anywhere near as long as the Botanics. The oil is great as doesn't dry your eyes out.

    I second the Simple one - I have sensitive eyes and it doesn't irritate them.

    Another fan of the Boots Botanics here. I usually chop and change products because I never find anything really fantastic (and i'm not the most loyal consumer to any brand), but this eye makeup remover is brilliant.

    I gave a bottle to my mum who would regularly get eye infections if she wears any kind of mascara or too much eyeshadow, and she loves it! Doesn't irritate her skin at all, which is very unusual for her :)

    Boots have a great one.

    I love the Johnson and Johnson one, it's practically Bi-Facil but for a fraction of the price! I've super sensitive skin and wear contacts and I've never had an issue with it. Can't recommend it enough. In my experience though, it's hard enough to come by.
