I saw my daughter was using the eyemakeup remover yikes! I told her I would look into what to get her since I don't use makeup normally. From what I read on google was some women use a face cleanser or it was even mentioned to use your moisturizer. I guess we could use the moisturizer if that really works.

I use the nutragena wipes too. Works for everything, mascara, lipstick, foundation.
 
I use regular Pond's cream right now... Or baby wipes in a pinch. I used to use Garnier Cleansing Oil but I haven't been able to find it
 

It just comes off when I use my Dove bar soap. Sometimes the mascara can be a little stubborn.
 
I mentioned to daughter to use Dove which I always have but she didn't like that idea, but she said it in a teenager way *sigh*

Yeah, it's probably "oldey-timey" as my coworker says. To be honest, I've tried the whole facial wipe thing and I feel grimy afterwards. I just need a wash.
 
I use the Neutrogena wipes or Clean & Clear soap cleanser.
 
The best quick cleanser to get rid of makeup I've found is Philosophy purity made simple. Gentle, yet great at getting rid of all makeup -- even stubborn mascara and eyeliner. A little dime size goes a long way, so even though it's a little more expensive up front it lasts a long time.
 
I use soap and water, lots of water. For soap I use Neutrogena Natural bar soap.

I also use a Clarisonic brush in the shower with soap and water.

Coconut oil for eyes, regular face cleanser for everything else
 
Well, colour me old fashioned. I use either Dove bar soap or Cetaphil cleanser to take makeup off. I've used products specifically marketed as makeup removers, and my face never feels clean afterwards. So I then have to use..... wait for it....my Dove bar soap or Cetaphil cleanser.
 
I use makeup remover cloths. I buy the Kirkland brand ones from Costco. Then I rinse with water.
 
I'm a guy, but I've heard Cetaphil works to some degree without being too harsh.

Organic coconut oil...Rub it in it feels great, wash with soap.

Coconut oil removes my crazy black eyeliner, it breaks up the makeup making it easier to remove with soap after. PLEASE tell her to use a makeup remover and not just soap, soap alone will NOT remove all the makeup and her skin will suffer as she ages.
