  • Directions For Each Recipe: Toss all ingredients in a bottle or small jar and shake or mix well. Shake before each use and apply with a tissue, cotton pad or ball.

Household Items That Will Remove Eye Makeup:

  • Olive oil
  • Baby oil
  • Jojoba oil
  • Almond oil

Making your own homemade eye makeup remover is cheap, cheap, cheap and they work great! Results may vary on some brands of waterproof mascara. For gentle cleansing, choose organic oils and scent-free products where possible.

Watch: The skin around the eyes is quite sensitive, if any homemade recipe or method irritates your eyes or the surrounding skin, please discontinue use.
