I picked up this little gem last week also, and it's now become a firm skincare staple for me! As I mentioned in my previous post, I'm on a beauty spending ban this month and so the only new things I'm buying are the essentials, I had another Boots £5 off skincare voucher and thought I'd use it to buy a new bottle of eye make-up remover.
I love to build up my mascara for volume as I have tiny mole eyes with undefined eyelashes otherwise. This means I often wear about three coats and my current favourite (review of it coming soon!) is a beaut for this! It does however mean it's stubborn to remove.
As I reviewed in my previous post, I use the No 7 Boots Beautiful Skin Quick Thinking Wipes to remove my face make-up on most lazy days which are fab for sweeping off most of my makeup. Sometimes though I need something extra to make sure my lashes are fully clean and free from mascara. I pop this onto a cotton pad and hold over my eye whilst gently massaging it around my eyelashes, essentially loosening the mascara so I can then sweep it off.
What it says: "This gentle dual action formula conditions while it cleanses, removing all traces of eye make-up even waterproof mascara"
"Ophthalmologist tested. Fragrance free and and suitable for sensitive eyes"
The pros
- Very gentle! I love the formula, it's quite oily but this is fab for conditioning my lashes, it really works and leaves my eyes clean ready for another build up of mascara!
- The colour - shallow, but the vivid blue is so appealing. It reminds me of swimming pools! For some reason, this makes me want to use it on my eyes...?!
- Secure packaging - I tend to travel a lot and forth back to Shropshire to see my family and one of my main worries is that my eye make-up remover (or nail varnish remover or contact lense solution!) will leak in my bag. This cap screws on and is very secure so I have faith none of the product will find its way on to my make-up or clothes!
The cons
- It isn't the most affordable - I've used other eye make-up removers which do the same job which are more affordable, as without the voucher this retails at £8.50.
- The size - this product is only 100ml which isn't a massive amount; it's great if you like to switch up your skincare and try out to new things but as a staple I think this is quite expensive for what it is.
You can buy Boots No 7 Beautiful Skin Eye Make-Up Remover from most Boots store and online here.
