#214: 3 Keys to a Great Eye Makeup Remover

Jun 30, 2024
 

Removing eye makeup at the end of each day is crucial, especially for those of us with sensitive eyes. Leaving makeup remnants on our lids and lashes overnight gives bacteria a cozy place to settle and multiply.

So, what makes a good eye makeup remover for sensitive eyes? There are three key factors to consider, and I’ll use one of my favorite products, Optase Life Sensitive Eye Makeup Remover, to illustrate them.

The 2023 gift guide for the holidays so that you can get all of your friends with red, sensitive eyes, the best gifts to pamper them this holiday season.  

 

 

 

#1) Eyes are the Story Mascara

Now, this is a box of three mini mascara wands. I really love this mascara. It is my favorite. The three mini wands keeps the brush and tube clean. You replace these wands every month. Less bacteria stays in the mascara tube to grow since you dispose of it so often.

The mascara is formulated with a creamy texture, and it doesn't flake. I find that this mascara lasts all day and it's a nice dark black color. I love it.
