Clarins Instant Eye Make-Up Remover

Advantages: No oiliness, kind on eyes, attractive packaging
Disadvantages: A little too mild, didn't remove all my eye make up

...I bought this product a little while ago. I wanted something quick and easy that would effectively remove my eye make up but that was also quite gentle, since some eye make removers make your eyes sting! I have used Clarins products in the past and have found them to be effective, so I thought that I would give this 'Instant Eye Make-Up Remover' a try. The bottle is a simple and attractive design. It is an oval shaped, plastic bottle with a screw top lid. The lid is white with a silver coloured rim, which adds a nice bit of bling! The plastic is a frosted colour, and you can easily see though to the liquid inside. The make up remover has two layers in it, it looks really cool in the bottle! There is a blue layer on the bottom and a clear layer on top, and you have to shake the bottle before you use it so that these two layers mix...

Clinique superfit makeup

Advantages: natural finish, long lasting, great for asian skin
Disadvantages: cost

...In the past whenever I have approached one of the ladies behind a makeup counter for help on finding a foundation to suit my skin, I have always walked away not pleased. These ladies have come across as being very helpful & they do try their best but they have always tried colours on my skin that were a few shades too dark unfortunately. This might have been down to the fact that I have an uneven skin tone & in order for them to try to even out my skin colour, they always happened to pick out the darkest colour on my face and go with that particular shade. On the odd occasion when I have been shown a shade that I didn't particularly mind, I felt like my face had far too many layers on it, the foundation was too thick for my liking, I looked overdone, and it neither felt nor looked natural. One day as a final try before I gave up...

Review of Clinique Superfit Make-Up

CLINIQUE ME UP

Advantages: FAB RESULTS AND GREAT PRICE
Disadvantages: NOTHING

...Name of the product I will be reviewing: " Clinique Superbalanced Foundation" - Price - I paid £ 18.50 for 30ml of this product I personally think this is a very reasonable price for such a good quality product, I usually pay up to £29 for any make-up product and this is well under my budget which is surprising seen as this product delivers great results and I would defiantly say it's one of the best foundations I've used and one of the cheapest. The reason I bought the superbalanced foundation was because I have combination skin, and this product is targeted at people who have my skin type as it is an oil free skin product but it also moisturizes in places that are dry. - Shades available - There are eighteen shades available of the Clinique Super balanced foundation, the fact the product has a large selection of shades...

Eye Make Up Remover

Advantages: Olay Cream, it works
Disadvantages: None

...since the early days when it was just a pink liquid in a jar. It now has expanded into a wide range of other products and I use quite a few of them. The one I am reviewing here is the Olay Eye Make Up remover. I am one who always has to remove her make up at the end of the day as I hate to sleep in it and think my face does a lot better without it on and so I was very excited when I found this product a few years ago. I love Olay so to have a make up remover that uses Olay lotion as well is an absolute benefit. The Olay eye make up remover comes in a tube with a flip top cap. The tube is white with blue writing on it and the cap is blue. The lotion inside is quite thick. It is fragrance free and colour free to care for the delicate eye area. To me, it smells a bit like regular Olay lotion which as it says above doesn?t really have...

bye bye eye make-up

Advantages: Cheap, it works
Disadvantages: Stings very occasionally

...This review is of Skin Therapy Eye Make-Up Remover. Skin Therapy is a skin care range, including facial wipes, moisturisers, cleansers, facial washes and so on. It is exclusive to Wilkinsons, so none of the prodcuts are likely to break the bank. I'm not a huge make-up person, I'm too pale for foundation, too lazy for tinted moisturiser, lip colour gives me too much of a Lesley Ash pout (not a good look, I can assure you), and blusher tends to make me look like I've been slapped! I do, however, love my eye make-up, not every day, but when I feel tired or run down, or if I'm going out, I 'do' my eyes. And when I do them, I really do them, with eye shadow, heavy eye-liner a la smokey eyed look, and lashings of mascara. Of course, all of this eye make-up has to then come off. I've tried so many different eye make-up removers in my time...

Clinique are All About Eyes

Advantages: Tones skin, nice silky texture, diminishes dark circles
Disadvantages: Doesn't rid me completely of the dark circles, no SPF

...'re travelling which is one of my bug bears, so thumbs up from me there. It retails at around £20 for 15ml, which is reasonable for a premium brand eye cream, (as long as it works!) and you can buy Clinique products from Boots, Debenhems, House of Fraser and most other department stores. Clinique claim on their website that All About Eyes will "minimise the appearance of dark circles and puffiness, helps to minimise, soften fine lines and wrinkles, helps to make the fragile eye area skin stronger and better protected, soothe, comfort and smooth the eye area, protect against environmental damage and extend eye makeup wear" so it's great for use for someone like me in their mid twenties, who is looking for a light eye cream to work as a good all round product. The skin around the eyes is very delicate, and over application of eye cream can actually end...

Nivea Extra Gentle Eye Make-up Remover - Extra Good!

Advantages: works brilliantly
Disadvantages: none

...Nivea Visage Extra Gentle Eye Make -up Remover.... I wear soft contact lenses everyday and after using a few make up removers that left my eyes feeling irradiated and sore I decided on buying an extra gentle make-up remover and perusing the shelves in Boots I came across this one made by Nivea Visage. It was a reasonable price at £3.39 pence for a good 125ml sized bottle. The design of the bottle is fairly average and just buy looking you can tell it is not an expensive product. It is quite a chunky design which means it stands up well on my dressing table and the lid which is a flip top pops open easily and clicks to seal very well. The liquid inside the bottle is clear although the bottle itself is tinted blue giving the impression that the liquid inside is this blue colour. The Extra Gentle Eye Make-up Remover is really...

Review of Nivea Visage Extra Gentle Eye Make-up Remover

Gentle? Yes. Eye make up remover? No.

Advantages: It's gentle
Disadvantages: Doesn't remove eyeshadow, mascara, eyeliner, have to rub hard

...When it comes to eye makeup remover, I'm not after a miracle product - just one that works but is gentle on the eyes as I can suffer from quite sensitive eyes which are easily irritated by lotions and potions. So when my sample of Lancome Bi Facil ran out I opted for L'oreal's Gentle Eye Make Up Remover, sold by the 'gentle' tag in the title and the attractive price tag of £2.68 for 125ml. It's enriched with Pro-Vitamin and promises to gently and effectively remove makeup, as well as refreshing the skin. It is suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers. Packaging is simple - a short, stubby bottle with a flip top lid which is actually quite stiff and difficult to open. Strike one... The liquid is a pale blue and very thin, the texture of water, and has a light refreshing scent. To use, you simply apply to a cotton pad...

Almost Foundation ... Certainly Make Up

Advantages: Blends well, isn't heavy, protects against sun related skin damage
Disadvantages: Can get water-y (separates), expensive, middling coverage

...to be had, and sure enough, freebies I got...but that's a story for another day). The consultant recommended Clinique Almost Make Up. It would be fair to say that this stuff falls somewhat between a tinted moisturiser and a full blown foundation. It comes in a green tube (thus resembling a moisturiser), but it has a full range of colours and shades (Although I'm pretty fair, I'm using 03 - Medium, as I bought it when I had a bit of a tan). The consistency is thinner than a foundation (in fact, it sometimes comes out quite watery - I have to remind myself to shake the tube well). The tube tells me it's fragrance free and allergy tested. I've never experienced any irritation when using this, but my skin isn't especially prone to it (though when I used Mac foundation, I did notice a slight burning sensation). The smell is indeed quite...
