My eyes have always been sensitive but hsve become ridiculously so over the past 12 months.
Please can people recommend eye make up removers for very sensitive eyes?
My existing ones make my eyes sting, water and my under eye area very puffy.
Any raccoons would be great. Thank you.

I used to use a Lancome one called bi- something. It is two toned and it worked on my v sensitive eyes.

Try vaseline and a cotton pad.

Liz Earle is very good. I found Simple very drying and stingy and some of them are very oily. I have tried them all including Chanel and Estee Lauder.

Also Clarins for waterproof eye make up.

I would try Liz Earle first though

Clinique, the one in the purple bottle. Any sort of stress brings me out in Eczema and I'm allergic to most eye makeup but this removes the most stuck on waterproof mascara without any trouble at all and leaves skin feeling calm.

This one really is the best, no stinging at all.

Have you tried Simple?

I have dry eyes and have to wash them with Johnsons baby shampoo so coincidentally have found it does a cracking job of removing eye make up as well. It's incredibly mild so causes no irritation.

My eyes are very sensitive too but this is fine for them:

Have you tried a microfibre pad? I have one of these which is pretty good at removing most make up with just water. For stubborn make up, I add a bit of micellar water (love the Garnier one) or Nivea Double Effect which are very gentle. I have eczema on my eyelids but don't find these sting or irritate at all.

Thank you for all the suggestions.
