Sephora Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover

Didn’t like this - it’s very oily. Burns my eyes. It does remove eye makeup well, but not without using a cotton pad on a circular motion at my eyes, which irritated it further. I pour a good amount on the cotton pad to wet it (less friction), however I have to use another cotton pad to put underneath it to soak up some excess while I remove my eye makeup - or else the excess will seep into my eyes :( I’m very reliant on using cleansing balms because they are so gentle, no friction, and perfect for removing makeup, hence I might be biased. I really did not enjoy using this and my eyes were really irritated by it.

Pros:
- not too oily
- removes makeup even waterproof
- more affordable than Lancôme bi-facil
- cheaper than bi-facil but not a dupe
- small hole at top dispenses just enough without spilling

Cons:
- not oily enough so it takes longer than my regular jojoba oil
- not as good as bi-facil

Unless Lancôme find sense and stop increasing bi-facil price, I wil stick to jojoba.

I struggled with this getting all my eye makeup off

This made most of my eyelashes fall out!!! It also burns my eyes. It removed eye mu well but at the cost of my lashes :( Here is a detailed video of my experience:

I finished a bottle of this and I can say that it is a decent bi-phase makeup remover, which you have to the shake the bottle to "activate" the removing properties. I took one lippie off because I found it slightly more oily than some drugstore brand makeup removers. It also takes a bit more time to remove waterproof mascaras compared to my HG L'Oreal Micellar Cleansing Water. I would repurchase this product if this went on sale in Sephora's website or as a product I can fall back on when my HG is out-of-stock.

Works really well and it does not irritate my eyes. Love this stuff. It also works well with cleaning up any make up errors without destroying your whole make up look.

Excelent makeup remover. The only bad thing I can say is that it is oily. I just do not like its feel in my already oily skin.

I use the L'oreal one nowadays.

Perfect and not too oily!
Just the small hole at the top is a bit annoying.

I usually use Lancôme Effacil but they keep raising the price. It's now over $30! So I went into Sephora. I tried it in the store before buying and I was happy and now my wallet is happy too. Nothing as great as Lancôme but is the next best thing for me.
I am sensitive to products and it didn't bother me much.

I saw this one day while shopping at Sephora and bought it on a whim. I've gone on quite an escapade through the years trying to find an inexpensive dupe for Lancôme Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover. I swear I've wasted more $$$ and time on such a fruitless search than I would have if I'd just spent the $39 bucks on what worked best for me and stuck with what I love.

So back to this. It's good. In fact, it's better than the drugstore brands I've tried, not to mention some of the other high end brands. For example, it's a heck of a lot better than Clinique Take the Day Off Eye Makeup Remover, at least in my humble opinion.

But it is no Lancôme Bi-Facil. Nothing is, so if you're hoping for a dupe, then I'm sorry but this isn't it. However, if you are just looking for a decent quality eye makeup remover that won't leave you tugging at your eyes until they're tender, then reach for this one.

My only legitimate complaint about it is the packaging. The hole at the top is so small that it's a real pain to get out a decent amount. It actually takes work and patience to properly soak a cotton ball or swipe. Of course, it could be a lot worse and have the opposite problem of being too large at the top, as is the case with Milani Makeup Remover in the green bottle.
