    I went through a couple of bottles of this and will continue to buy it. It's a fantastic makeup remover. It takes off everything with minimal efforts on my part and never irritates my sensitive...

    In my search for a HG bi-phase makeup remover, I have used several bottles of Paula's Choice Gentle Touch Makeup Remover. Performance-wise, it approaches my favorite Cetaphil Gentle Makeup Remover,...

    I bought this awhile ago, got on sale. I've been using Physicians Formula Lotion Eye Makeup Remover as my standard, and thought it was the best I could do in terms of being non-irritating. But a...

    I have uber-sensitive skin. I can't even use most makeup removers because they burn my skin and/or my eyes. I've thrown away fragrant, irritating removers from Lancome, Revlon, Nivea, and...

    This lives up to its name and is very gentle yet removes my waterproof eye makeup easily. I don't get any stinging if it gets into my eyes, and it doesn't leave much residue (unlike an eye makeup...

    PROS: Does not bother my eyes. Removes my waterproof mascara better than anything else I've tried. (Well, I've had some that work almost as well, but they burn the hell out of my eyes or leave...

    I like this remover, but not well enough to repurchase. It leaves my skin very soft and smooth, but it blurs my vision and it takes quite some effort to remove even non-waterproof mascara. Kanebo's...

    This makeup remover left my dry and sensitive skin feeling a little dry and irritated. Also, it didn't seem to remove makeup well or quickly.

    This did not remove all my eye makeup. I do not wear waterproof mascara and this still didn't get it all off. I tried Mary Kay's version years ago and I have yet to find anything that compares to...

    This makeup remover is wonderful. Though a bit over-priced, it works very, very well. You don't have to use a heavy hand when removing eyelid makeup. It almost melts it away. A definite keeper!

    This "bi-level/shake-it-before-you-use-it" eye makeup remover is similar in concept to Lancome's Bi-Facil, Clinique's Take the Day Off, and also Neutrogena's Oil-Free versions, but this works even...
