Depends what you want it to remove @gail2 Are you using waterproof mascara, for example? Do you have sensitive eyes? What’s your budget?
 
I use garner miceller water it's about £3.50 and rakes off waterproof mascara as well as the rest of the makeup. I have sensitive eyes that pick up infections easily and this is ok for me. That or Decleor if you have the budget.
 
Another user of Garnier Micellar water here for all makeup removal.
 
I use a beauty balm cleanser and then finish off with a simple Simple eye makeup remover. I find so many of the eye makeup removers are harsh and drying.
 
I use Clinique make up as my eyes are sensitive, but can't afford their cleanser @ £34 for 200ml.. although they have 20% off atm. I use Primark gentle cleansing wipes which are 75p for 50 and don't seem to have any adverse affect. They certainly remove the waterproof mascara I use.
 
Thanks dont mind the budget am looking for sensivetive skin ones have been looking round boots online and they do a next day delivery being me i want it yesterday LOL am going to treat myself to other stuff as well just a few things well i have to spend my xmas bonus somehow
 
I have some Liz Earle that seems to do the job for me and is soothing in my eyes.
 
I swear by Tropic cleansers, toners and moisturisers. Their smoothing cleanser is fantastic for eye makeup remover. It literally melts it away. They only sell online. You can buy a travel size to try it out. It’s not cheap but I’ve been using it for years and have sensitive skin and eyes. The full size one comes with a bamboo cloth too.

Klorane with cornflower is gentle as is Almay. Agree with @eggyg that some will just melt it away like hers and the beauty balm I mentioned. I find they last for ages too.
 
My sister was scared of him when she was young 😱
Im scared of him and Im not young
went on boots.com and ordered some eye makeup removal pads for sensitive eyes and while i was on there someone put in my basket some make up sets Now I wonder who that was!!!

thanks all did order boots pad eye make up remover but i found it to oily Gone for Clinque in end call me a snob if you like it on boots next day delivery so will come tuesday Well chuffed and they had a special offer as well
 
Yes, I find the Boots pads very oily too. I do occasionally take a pack when I go away though, as they don’t leak and are small to pack.
 
Lancôme bi-facial is the best in the business. Gatineau Floracil is also very good. Nivea double effect is a good budget buy. All work well on my own sensitive eyes.
 
Thanks my stuff came today The Clinique is well woth the money MAde me laugh i ordered 3 lots of organic round pads as they were on special offer they came in biggest box i have seen talk about overkill
Another question for ladys
can you reconmend a good moisturizer for the face/something for bags under the eyes as well a cream or lotion any price range as long as it works well
Thanks
