Make-up Remover

A couple of makeup remover that I am currently using.
1.) The Face Shop: Herb Clear Lip & Eye Make-up Remover - It's the green bottle from the picture above. As far as I remember, this costs around PHP 390.00 (USD $8.00). Correct me if I'm wrong, it's been quite a while since I have purchased this.. So anyway, it does the job of removing my waterproof makeup but it takes a bit of an effort. But this makeup remover is oil free and alcohol free, which I really really love. I love that it doesn't sting my eyes and I also use this when I make a minimal mistake with makeup, I just apply this with Q-tip. It doesn't leave a residue so I don't have to wash off my makeup. I love it. I am actually running out of my first bottle, I wanted to get another one but everytime I checked TFS, they don't have it. The only makeup remover available was not oil free. So yeah, I hope they didn't discontinue this product. It's going to make me really sad. =(

2.) L'Oreal Dermo Expertise Gentle Lip & Eye Make-up Remover - The blue bottle from the picture. It costs around PHP 390.00 (USD $8.00), I hope I remember it right.. This one's for waterproof makeup. Okay this is supposed to be gentle but it actually stings my eyes. And like my TFS makeup remover, it works but with a bit of an effort. Like I really have to rub my lashes with a Q-tip or cotton ball. I try my best to be very gentle, because I also get worried of the sagging it might cause if I rub too much. And also, I noticed that it flakes my mascara off which I hate because sometimes it would get into my eyes. I don't know if it's the makeup remover causing the flakes or if it really is just the mascara.. Anyway, it's not oil free so I cannot use it to correct makeup mistakes. I'm not sure if I am going to repurchase this, maybe I'll try other brands first and look for something that won't sting.

3.) Neutrogena Deep Clean Cleansing Lotion - Its the white bottle in the middle of the picture above. This one's for waterproof makeup, too. I LOVE THIS! I just simply apply it on (let's say my eyes) and super gently massage it on the area. Then I just lightly wipe my eyes off with tissue and it's gone. It simply melts away the makeup! No flaking whatsoever. The only downside is, it stings my eyes. Sad. But, seriously I think this is the only makeup remover (that I have tried so far) that thoroughly removed my makeup (esp. my eye makeup). If only it doesn't sting, this would be my HG makeup remover. But still, I guess I am going to repurchase this. Because it does the job pretty easy. Oh, I got this at around PHP 390.00 (USD $8.00), too. I am just not sure if it's available in other countries like the USA. Because I have tried to search for it on the Neutrogena.com website, unfortunately I can't find it.. But when I browsed on our local Neutrogena.com.ph website, it's there. So yeah. I hope this becomes available everywhere because I think it's pretty good. =)

Thanks for reading! Yup, I really wanted it to work but I guess it's just not for me. I'm glad it worked for you =)

I love these reviews, Catmare, bravo!

I have a very sensitive face and many things don't work for me and I have to be very picky. But it's all good.
