Does anyone know a good makeup remover? I pretty much only wear water proof mascara and lip gloss but would like to remove the mascara before working out and the neutrogena makeup remover towelettes I am currently using just can not get all the mascara off. It actually makes it worse so after I use it and then go out and sweat and turn into a raccoon. Lately I just haven't been removing I hate being the girl at the gym with makeup on.

    I haven't found one I like yet....I just got an almay one and it's really oily. But, I feel I need to use it up before I go buy something new.

    It's made by DHC, and it is deep cleansing oil makeup remover.

    You put it on dry (no added water, I mean) and then rinse it away after it loosens up the makeup in just a few seconds. Everything comes off soft and smooth and your skin isn't all tight and dried out.

    It's DIVINE!

    Also, their "white sunscreen" is the best thing ever!!!

    And, it lasts forever. I have been using DHC for like 4 years now, and I'm only on my second bottle of this stuff, and I wear makeup almost every day.

    i admit i'm a huge fan of many high-end makeup brands, but i've used good 'ol pond's cold cream to remove my eye makeup since i was in high school. i think it's part of the reason that the skin under my eyes looks so good at 37 (i still get carded!!!). it would be a bit heavy for face i think (i'm pretty sure i would break out if i used it all over) but so good for the eyes.

    hmmm, maybe i should rub some on my belly and thighs, see if it helps those trouble spots ;)

    To remove eye make-up I use vasoline. I use water proof mascara and it take it off just fine. I really only wear eye make-up, but if I am wearing foundation or rogue I just wash it off with soup and water.

    I buy directly from their website, and also from Ebay. They have a catalog too, and they always send free samples :)

    then how do you get the vaseline off? It's so thick and greasy...

    I love my Avon makeup remover! It's a cream, not oily at all, and leaves my face feeling great! I don't wear waterproof mascara though so I'm not sure how it would do with that. You can find it as cheap as .99!!!

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I only buy the fragrance free ones because Im allergic to fragrances.
    I should have clarified sorry. Use the baby wipes then rinse your face with water and moisturise as normal - voila!! No baby bum smell :wink:

    Hello, I was recently introduced to Arbolene makeup remover; and OMG, I love it. I can't go with out my 12hr eyeliner, but at night, it wouldn't wash off completly. With Arbolene it comes right off and leaves my skin looking radiant and soft. It is sold at Walmart and pharmacies.
