These makeup remover pads come 80 in a pack, and are very thin. While EXTREMELY oily, they do a good job of removing makeup, with only one or two swipes. it leaves your skin and hands very oily, so make sure to wash your hands and face after using.
they've very thin pads and usually get stuck together.

overall an alright product, but i'll be buying the oil-free pads once these run out.

I tried these and didn't like them. I'm not a fan of the oily feeling that it leaves on the skin around my eyes. BUT...they do sell oil-free remover pads now so..this can be avoided. I will be purchasing the oil free kinds over these.<3 continued >>

Love these ! Let me say though...I have dry skin around my eyes. So this actually gives me a little moisture. That being said, it gets everything off my eyes. Once done, i take a dry tissue and wipe off the oil and any makeup residue left. Handy little pads loaded with enough product to clean both eyes with one. Again, once eyes have been wiped, a little bit of tissue wipes away what is left. Works perfectly. HG for me - can't imagine anything working any better.

Yep, they're greasy little beasts, but they really do get EVERYTHING off. I don't use them all the time, but they are a must for me with heavy eye makeup and waterproof mascara because I don't have to rub so much, and I hate to lose lashes due to rubbing. That's why the oiliness is good. I haven't had any skin reactions to these, they've worked for me really well. The only thing is they do blur my vision because they are so oily, but I usually just go to sleep right after anyway so it's not too big of a deal. I have bought these a few times. Not HG by any means, but they get it all off, so I'm satisfied until I find something better.

Upon seeing the "#1 eye makeup remover" claim, I grabbed a pot and expected great things.

This stuff was SO oily that it got in my eyes (couldn't control where it ended up), and that stung and was hard to wash out. Not only that, but my whole eye area remained oily until I washed my face completely for the night.
Even if this formula wasn't so oily, the little pads (and they are quite little) stick together and are not easy to pry apart, either.

All-around unpleasant experience. Not recommended.

Too oilly for me. They removed make up really well and quickly but I hated the greasy feel. Next morning I had pimples underneath my eyes from it. Never again.

I accidently grabbed this package instead of the oil free almay eye makeup pads which I have used for a couple of years, I was in a rush. Didnt notice until I was in the car. Figured that they couldnt be SO different. wrong! These are the greasiest things ever, and I wear contacts and they make the contacts all oily and blur my eyesight. Horrible. I suppose if you take your makeup off before a shower and then wash your face they would be ok, but I usually wash my face in the shower, and then any residual eye makeup would come off with the oil free pads. Also I tend to use the almay OIL FREE pads as erasers when Im DOING my eye makeup, like if I stretch the eyeliner out too far or something, I would just use a pad and clear it up, but you could never do that with these, they are so oily. yuck. I will buy the OIL FREE almay pads forever but these are horrible....and I havent written a review in 3 years, Im so lazy....that should tell you how strongly I feel about this product!

This removed makeup well but were SOOOOOO oily!!!!!!! If I used them with my contacts they made my vision all blurry. Running them under the tap for a few seconds helped a bit, but there are so many better product out there that Im giving up on these.

These are amazing!!! I have fought and fought over the years to find something that would remove not only water-proof mascara, but also get all of the eyeliner off my bottom eyelid. These little pads literally melt away eye makeup! I use to chafe my eyes trying tp scrub my makeup off with different towelettes and soaps, only to still have eyeliner under my eyes! Not anymore =D highly highly recommended! Just be sure to wash your face as you regularly would afterward, or the remover will stay behind.

This does a great job of removing my mascara, although I don't use a lot of eye makeup, so your mileage may vary. It doesn't make my eyes sting and doesn't give me milia so far. I don't notice a residue with these, but I have a very dry eye area, so I like the additional moisture.
