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.
