This is one of the best makeup removers i have ever used. I tend to wear a lot of eye makeup and this stuff, although not a specific eye make-up remover does a fantastic job of getting rid of the 'mess' left round my eyes, even after a night out.
It is marketed as a make up remover for 'lids, lashes and lips' and can shift water resistant/proof products. This is due to its 2-layered contents. One layer is oily and the other is water based giving a funky looking 2-tone effect in the bottle and also the benefit of the 'dual action formula' to remove the different types of make-up used (i.e. powder based eye shadow/water resistant mascara, smudge proof lipstick etc). However, after a few weeks, the layers become permanently mixed - and although the frothy white liquid dosn't look quite as appealing as the original product, it works just as well.
As i have said, it is very effective at taking makeup off, but it does leave your skin a bit oily after use. This means you can only use it to take make up off, not touch up a botched job (e.g. liquid eyeliner as i have found many times!)as the oilyness stays on the skin, meaning any further attempts will just smudge and not adhere to the skin.
As i have quite sensitive skin, some of the more stringent makeup removers really sting me, but this allergy tested, 100% fragrance free product has caused absolutley no irritation.
It come in a 125ml container, for around £10. Although it seems expensive, you only need a tiny bit each night and a bottle should last about 6-8 months. Most shops that sell clinique products offer seasonal promotions whereby for buying 2 or more products, the customer receives a pack of free samples. This product often appears in these in a 10ml form- perfect for taking on holiday.
