This product has a tendency to sting my eyes. I think it's a little bit expensive. You really only get a little bit in the bottle. I love Aveda but I would not purchase again.

Love this product. Does what it's supposed to do and doesn't irritate my eyes or dry out the surrounding skin. I would definitely keep buying this except that it's a pain in the neck to always have to go to the stand-alone Aveda stores to find it. I wish Sephora carried Aveda products!

I love this product. I use it all the time and it does an excellent job. I use it with cotton rounds. It isn't harsh on the eyelids at all. I highly recommend it. It doesn't dry out your skin.

This is the first eye makeup remover I've ever purchased because I'm finding as I get older I don't want to be rubbing and tugging at my eye area with my regular cleanser to remove my makeup. So, I don't have anything to compare it to, but it takes off all my shadow, mascara and eyeliner very well and quickly. It doesn't sting nor leave a residue on my hard contact lens, even when I use a q-tip to get the liner off. It doesn't have a scent. It's $15.00 for a 4.2 oz bottle. I'm happy with it.

I liked this, but I found the Chamomile Gentle by the Body Shop to be a little more effective. I had been using the Clinique rinse off, but I think it was drying out my under eye area. This one is not bad, no silicones (a feat in itself for Aveda) and is a little more moisturizing than others that are out there. I want something gentle because I only use it to clean up what my cleanser left behind. (Using a remover first -- is just too much pulling on my eyes for me, so I use it after I cleanse). It's a little expensive, but the only other choices are either drying or have silicone and I don't want silicone in my eyes. But as I said, I think the Body Shop is better for me.

I have used this product and was very pleased with its quality. I especially like Aveda's committment in protecting the environment, no animal testing, and using natural plant extracts. I use a Water Resistant mascara and Paula Dorf's Transformer mixed with my Aveda shadow and this product removed my eyeliner and mascara without any problems. I'm not sure how this would work for someone using Waterproof mascara though. I liked this product as it did not smell like synthetic chemicals. When I decided to try another eye makeup remover found at my local drugstore, I was immediately repulsed by the chemically smell. This was my effort to save some money. Well, no more drugstore skincare for me. I'm going back to Aveda.

Though my hands down favorite eye makeup remover is Lancome's Bi-Facil Double Action Eye Make-up Remover, this is a very good runner up. It is also an oil/water mixture that easily wipes your mascara clean off without requiring tugging, pulling, or rubbing. I have fairly sesitive eyes, wear contacts, and have substantial lashes (or rather, I used to before breaking them to pieces with crummy eye makeup remover).
My one criticism is that when I was traveling with the screw top plastic bottle, it leaked and I lost most of the product into my overnight bag (which is a bummer when you pay 18 bucks for remover). I thought perhaps I hadn't tightened the top sufficiently, but sure enough, it happened again the next day. I've taken a lippie off for poor packaging construction.

I received a sample of this product in a swap and it removed makeup well enough and did not burn. However, I had to use a lot of product to get my eyemakeup off. I won't buy this product simply because I prefer Neutrogena and Mary Kay eye makeup remover.

This product does have some great things going for it: good packaging, easy dispensing, good scent, no irritation, non-greasy. However what will keep me from buying this again is that it tends to tighten my eye area, and almost making them appear swollen as another reviewer mentioned. Really weird feeling that I do not like.

I got to try a sample of this and have fallen in love! It's not at all greasy, does an excellent job of taking off my eye makeup, no scent, and it's reasonably priced. Also, no scents and it doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes (I wear contacts and this was a major plus for the product!!)

Pure Comfort, my butt! This stuff burned like heck...and caused one eyelid to swell slightly. *Not* the look I was going for :-p

This remover left non-waterproof mascara behind, although it was residue-free and seemed like it would be alright for contact-lens users. Overall, an okay remover, but there are better options out there.

I've always used Clinique's Rinse-Off eye makeup remover, but on a whim decided to try this since it's vomparable in price. ($15 for AVEDA and $14.50 for Clinique for the 4.2 oz. bottle) I must say this is better! It has no detectable scent, removes all my eye makeup easily, and the bottle has a better opening. It has a smaller hole once you screw off the cap so if you're clumsy like me you won't spill the entire bottle down the drain or on the bathroom counter like I have done numerous times with the Clinique bottles. I think this is my new staple. :)
