Etude House Eye Mascara Remover review

Etude House Mascara Remover

I went online and found Etude House's Mascara Remover so I decided to give it a try... since the most annoying part of removing make up is waterproof Mascara (cringes).

tagline: one shot clean
amount: 80ml


ingredients:

Cyclopentasiloxane, Water, Hydrogenated Poly(C6-14 Olefin), Dipropylene Glycol, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Rosa Centifolia Flower Water, Sodium Chloride, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Allantoin, Betaine, Benzophenone-4, Butylene Glycol, Alcohol Denat., Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Propylparaben, Fragrance(Parfum), Red 4 (CI 14700), Blue 1 (CI 42090)

how it looks after I shake it

To use it, you need to shake it, that is to blend the water and oil elements together to make them work together to remove your eye make up/mascara.

before and after on eyes

I tried this Mascara Remover and wow... I was shocked at the results... it seemed that most of the eye make up products from my eyes were gone! :) There was a slight stinging feeling (but nothing compared to the stinging feeling I got from Clinique's Make up remover).

But of course, to really see how effective it was... I had to do a test on my hand just to see how amazing it really is

products used correspond to the products on my hand

These are the products I decided to use for this test, and they correspond to the lines on my hand:

1. Kate eye shadow palette
2. Kate Super Sharp eye liner
3. Maybelline's Falsie waterproof mascara
4. Maybelline's Express Turbo Boost mascara

results

As you can see, the waterproof eye mascara and the normal eye mascara were literally wiped off (I only wiped it off once). The Eye Liner is still slightly showing and the eye shadow literally disappeared... I am extremely impressed.

Impressions:

• really removes make up off completely
• slight stinging sensation to sensitive eye area skin
• very mild "creamy" smell
• easy to clean eye after this is applied

I was really impressed with the results shown on my eye and my hand... this remover did a perfect job removing most of the products out and stinging was very minimal... the price is extremely reasonable... and if I do need to purchase it again, I will!

Score: 8.5/10

Clinique rinse-Off eye makeup remover review

Clinique's eye make up remover

So, as I mentioned, I had to attend 2 weddings over the past weekend... I see this as a good opportunity to test out my eye make up removers!

My beauty consultant at Clinique introduced me to this eye make up remover indicating that it is perfect for sensitive skin... so I decided to give it a try.

These are the claims:

Unique formula quickly removes all eye makeup, from lashes to brows. Perfect for quick makeup changes, touchups, repairs. Cleans eye area easily without disturbing other makeup. No rubbing necessary. Oil-free, blur-free, sting-free. Ophthalmologist Tested.

after a few rubs

I was quite happy with the results on my eyes... but I wanted to see how effective it was to remove the make up...to put this to the test, I decided to put eye products on my hand and see clearly how effective this make up remover is.

impressions:

• got some product out of my eyes (please see the test results below)
• stinging sensation (I had to squint and wash the product off immediately)
• mild smell

these were the products I used

These are the lit of products I decided to use for this test, and they correspond to the lines on my hand

1. Kate eye shadow palatte
2. Kate Super Sharp eye liner
3. Maybelline's Falsie waterproof mascara
4. Maybelline's Express Turbo Boost mascara

the results

steps to using this make up remover:

• Moisten cotton ball with Rinse-Off Eye Makeup Solvent or use a cotton swab for spot work.
• Sweep over eye makeup.
• Tissue off or rinse with water.

The results are quite disappointing, (you can only tell that the final mascara still is present in this picture, but the others were still apparent (except for the eye shadow). I guess I had too much eyeshadow on my eyes, and that caused an illusion that this makeup remover cleaned off the products well... 

I was really disappointed with the stinging sensation I experienced with this product... I thought it was for sensitive skin... but the stinging sensation was literally unbearable...

happy clean face

At the end of the day, I'm so glad I got my face well cleaned with LOTS of water!

score: 6/10
