Picture of Removing Eye Makeup - Tipnut.comHere are a few recipes I’ve collected as well as a list of various household items that can be used for removing eye makeup.

Eye Makeup Remover Recipes

Recipe #1

1 cup Water
1 1/2 TBS Baby Shampoo (the tearless kind)
1/8 tsp Baby Oil (mineral oil)

1 TBS Olive Oil (Extra Virgin)
1 TBS Castor Oil
2 tsp Canola Oil

  • Another recipe I have suggests using equal parts of the above oils, so 1 TBS Olive Oil, 1 TBS Castor Oil, 1 TBS Canola Oil.

Recipe #3

1/8 cup Grapeseed Oil
1 TBS Castor Oil

Recipe #4

2 TBS Water
1 TBS Jojoba Oil

Recipe #5

2 TBS Aloe Vera Gel
1 TBS Jojoba Oil

  • 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
  • Grapeseed oil
  • Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly
  • Unscented Baby Wipes

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.

    All these natural-oil recipes for removing eye makeup are find and dandy, but what do you do when they start to go rancid? or do you store them in the fridge? Oils gone bad sure smell nasty!!!
