Eye Makeup Removers

One of my favorite things to do is try a variety of products and then compare them to each other to pick my favorite.  I'm that girl that actually buys the products from the road tests that Real Simple magazine does.  The last review of products I posted was mascaras I've tried, and someone asked if I would post about eye makeup removers.  I haven't tried a ton, but I do have some favorites.


Aveeno Positively Radiant Makeup Removing Cleanser 
check Aveeno for stores
I love Aveeno products because they always smell so good!
This cleanser did not remove a trace of my eye makeup, though;
I ended up using it just like a facial cleanser.  Thumbs down
on the makeup removing part.


Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover 
$6.49 at Target
I found myself having to use a LOT of this to get
all the traces of my mascara off.  Also, it says it's
oil-free but I found it actually left an oily
residue around my eyes.  Definitely not a favorite.


Yes to Carrots Makeup Removing Cleanser
$9.99 at Target
This does a good job of taking all of the
eye makeup off, but it takes a little scrubbing
in order to do so.  I use this when I'm not in a hurry,
and I like it because it's paraben-free.


Mary Kay Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover
$15.00 at Mary Kay
This is my favorite liquid eye makeup remover.
I don't have to put a lot on a cotton ball, and it takes
off even waterproof mascara.  It's not oily
and because I feel like it lasts a long time,
I think it's worth the money.


Neutrogena Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelettes
$4.49 at Target
These are hands-down my favorite of all.
They are gentler than a cotton ball, and they 
remove every bit of makeup.  If I'm in a hurry
this is definitely what I grab, and I also
like being able to have them in 
my purse or carry-on if I am traveling.

I've also tried the Target brand eye makeup remover and hated it; I felt like I was using half the bottle just to get my mascara to come off.  I don't think they sell that anymore because now it's the up&up brand.  Has anyone tried that?

What makeup removers do you use?  I would love to know what you recommend!
