Best budget eye makeup remover?

*max*

I've started using a new mascara (Bourgeois Volume Clubbing) which I absolutely love...but is a complete pain to remove!

I'm using an Yves Rocher eye makeup remover that isn't very good. I also have a Body Shop camomille one that is a little better, but not by much! Face wipes (Boots sensitive) only smear the mascara all over my face...

Does anyone know of a good eye makeup remover that isn't too expensive (less than £5 would be ideal!)? I have sensitive eyes, and can't use creams/lotions on them as they sting too much. I don't want to faff about with oils and face cloths either. I'd like a no-fuss liquid product I can use with a cotton pad. Any idea?

I know you say you can't use creams or lotions but have you tried aqueous cream?

I am the same as you re the stinging but found this worked great. I only started using aqueous cream because i actually got eczema on my eyelids from using other makes. The pharmacist told me to use the aqueous cream a few times a day and it was him who suggested it would remove make up.

It is really cheap and lasts forever.

I've just come accross this one that seems to get good reviews all round: http://www.superdrug.com/face/garnier-2-in-1-eye+face-make-up-remover-200ml/invt/239975?source=179_75#readReview

Bit of a bargain too...Anyone tried it?

Well, I just bought the one above for £2 in my local chemist, so I will give it a go! I'll report back on effectiveness.

j.e.j.

Boots cold cream is great for removing eye make-up. It costs about £2-something a tub and it lasts ages.

Olive oil or coconut oil. Totally brilliant

Just tried the Garnier one, and it's VERY good! Much, much better than the ones I have. It doesn't sting,and it removed my mascara in a couple of swipes, no rubbing. It's a little bit oily, but nothing unpleasant.

Very happy with it, especially for the price! :T

Boots essentials do pads with oil on them that remove the Bourjois mascara you use, I used to use it too and always used these.

That looks good too, and very affordable. No need for cotton pads as well. Maybe I'll give those a try next time!

I use these along with the cleanser and toner (but the normal version) I have used them since I was 13 (23 years) and I think they are fab!! I like to use masses of cotton wool to make sure I get all the makeup off too.

Home bargains do one that is 39p and is great,plus it doesn't irritate my eyes.
