Why it's great: Reviewers say this is a "great product for a low price." In addition to the fact that it "removes all eye makeup," reviewers also love the "convenient packaging."
"The packaging is so tiny so I can take it when I travel, and the flip-top is a great idea," says one fan. Overall, readers "definitely recommend this product."
Why it's great: Twenty dollars may seem like a steep price to pay for makeup-removing towelettes, but readers seem to think the product is worth the dough. "They are tough on my makeup, but gentle on the skin and do not leave my face feeling oily or soapy," one user says. Another fan says, "The smooth side takes off waterproof eye makeup easily, and the rougher side gives a good exfoliating cleanse to the whole face."
Why it's great: Readers love these convenient pads for on-the-go touchups and makeup removal — no extra cotton balls required. "These pads work great! Just the right amount of remover seems to be on each one," says one reviewer. Devotees also appreciate the fact that they are easy on the eyes -- and skin. "I wear contacts and have supersensitive eyes. Stubborn mascara comes off quite easily and the remover never irritates my eyes," one reviewer says. And at such a reasonable price, they're gentle on the pocketbook, too.
Why it's great: Reviewers love the scent of these towelettes, saying they are "fresh and clean, but subtle."
"I have put these to brutal tests repeatedly, and they have excelled," says one reviewer. "They will remove waterproof mascara, waterproof eyeliner, eye shadow primer, eye shadows, concealer, foundation ... and more with great ease and absolutely no irritation at all."
Even readers with acne-prone skin repeatedly choose these gentle wipes. "It leaves my skin feeling moisturized, not filmy, tight or dry. I haven't experienced any breakouts since I started using them," says one user.
Why it's great: Readers appreciate that this Clinique product gently wipes away eye makeup as well as lip color. "Plus, you can re-apply makeup immediately after rinsing with a little water — hard to do with the oil-based removers," says one reviewer. The formula is also gentle on eyelashes. "I can remove the day's makeup and not have to worry about eye irritation," claims a reviewer. "No lashes were lost in a battle to rub off mascara (like I've been victim to with other removers)."
As total product junkies, we tend to spend a lot of time putting stuff on our faces. So at the end of the day, a good makeup remover is just as important as the makeup we're taking off.
When choosing which makeup remover is best, we always look for three main characteristics: It takes off everything in one swoop, it won't clog pores and won't leave gross, oily residue on our beloved pillowcases (so not good for the complexion). And it appears that TotalBeauty.com readers feel the same. They chose these 20 eye makeup removers, micellar waters, cleansing waters and makeup-removing wipes as the best of the best for everything from removing raccoon eyes to keeping skin fresh and clean.
