I use a liquid eyeliner and mascara everyday, so I need a really good eye make-up remover. Well, I certainly don’t want to wake up looking like a bamboo eating teddy bear!
I’ve tried all the tricks in the book, from using soap and water all the way through to leaving it all on over-night and building up the layers – euurrrgghh!
Most of the actual eye make-up cleaners I’ve used, have either been too greasy and seemed to smear my eye make-up rather than remove it, or, I need to rub my eyes really quite hard. Not something us ‘young’ ladies should do (if we want to keep the crows feet and lines away).
This is where ‘Clinique Rinse-Off Eye Makeup Solvent’ is different; it’s quick and easy to use. I use a cotton wool pad, tip the bottle quickly and gently wipe from the corner of my eye outwards, there’s no need to scrub either, just wipe 2 or 3 times more, rinse off with lukewarm water and voila – no more pepe the panda!
I find it very gentle on my eyes and if I do get it into my eyes it hardly stings at all, but be careful if you have very sensitive eyes or wear contacts, I would suggest that you speak to the ‘Clinique lady’ (she’s not that scary – honest) and she should/could be able to suggest something else in their range. It’s fragrance free and they say it’s been ophthalmologist tested – we have to believe them on this one – don’t we?
I first tried this product as a tester at one of their ‘bonus times’ but now I buy the full bottle, and at 13.50 it’s quite expensive, but hey – treat yourself, you deserve it!
I found the tester size is just right for taking on holiday or for weekends, but the 4.2fl oz. Bottle will last about 7 or 8 months, but if you’re running out in the middle of the month, add a little water to the bottle, just a little tip of mine which does work!
