Help please.
I have very,very sensitive eyes.
I am allergic to so many removers.
I've just bought L'oreal gentle eye make up remover. Stung like mad Sad
Simple stings too.
Loved Garnier but they changed the formula.
I am even allergic to La Roche Posay.
I found Avene doesn't sting but it is a gel and I hate the texture.
Amy suggestions please.

Anything balmy, oils, vaseline and those bi-phase is awful for my sensitive eyes... Just throwing it out there...

Can I ask all those who are replying ( I guess cos you're super sensitive too!) what mascara you can tolerate? Thanks!

I don't use mascara at all these days. They were all rubbish.

I sometimes get my eyelashes dyed or use one of those kits but not that often cos if my hand slips - ouch! Most of the time I go bare lashed and I've come to quite like the look. I wear specs and I've decided they frame my eyes as much as I need.

Sorry if that's not very helpful!

I'm allergic to chromium with is a pigment found in 99% of eye make up. I can tolerate mascara from Butterflies Eyecare but it's not very good. Or randomly Boots 17 brand is chromium free - the Doll'd Up mascara is very good. Or Urban Decay and Laura Mercier are also chromium free. That's honestly about it. Try the 17 one. It's only about £6. Or the Butterflies one is non irritating too and I've used their eyeliner pencils successfully too.

I've been using this which I bought from Sally's : www.sallyexpress.com/charlotte-smedley-face-off-makeup-remover-cloth/

You take all your makeup off with just WATER! - its reusable and goes in the washer dryer! you can also get it direct from the source: www.charlottesmedley.co.uk or

www.charlottesmedley.co.uk/product-category/40/166/Makeup-Remover/Face-Off-Makeup-Remover.htm

I love love love it! so gentle and easy to use it - i even use it on my kids to remove face paint or when they've drawn on themselves with felt tips!! 😂
