I used to think that when it comes to waterproof liners and mascaras, the best makeup removers were oil based.  While oil based products do get the job done, it's messy, greasy, and irritating to my eyes.  Also, while working at Sephora, I need a makeup remover that'll not remove my clients' makeup quickly and effortlessly, I need one that won't leave any residue behind.  Oil-based removers just don't give me a clean canvas to work on!

My go-to for both in-the-store and at-home use is Make Up For Ever's Sens'Eyes - the best makeup removr you'll ever use.  This soothing and cooling gel removes even the most stubborn mascara with ease, and it does not irritate even the most sensitive eyes.  Tip - it's also safe to use on your lips!

While others swear by Lancome's Bi-facil makeup remover, I swear by this.  Simply put, it gets the job done.

MAKE UP FOR EVER Sens'Eyes - Waterproof Sensitive Eye Cleanser

$23.00 by Make Up For Ever at Sephora

Ojon Rub-Out Dry Cleanser

$10.00 by Ojon at Sephora

 

Does any of this apply to you:

1.  Have color treated hair

2.  Have oily hair

3.  Live an extremely busy lifestyle

4.  Want healthier hair

If any of those apply to you, then you must try Ojon's Rub-Out Dry Cleanser.  It's a dry shampoo, with talc as a main ingredient, where you can spray on your hair when it starts to look a bit flimsy, oily, and dirty.  You ask, "if it's just talc, why not just rub some baby powder on my hair?"  Well, you CAN do that, but unless you have platinum blonde hair, people will be able to see white powder all over your hair/crown.  It's not a pretty look.

I like Ojon's version more than Oscar Bandi's version solely due to the smell.  Ojon's version has a floral scent that stays on all day.  If you spray too much, the smell could be a tad overpowering, but at least it doesn't have a lemon detergent smell that I find Oscar Bandi's version to have.  Plus, this really works.  My hair gets oily really fast, yet I don't want to wash it every day because it will wash out my color faster, so this helps keep it looking clean.  The other plus side of it?  The volume you get for spraying this near your roots!  My hair was totally va-va-vooming without a blow out!  Sweet!!!

Overall, it gets 4 watermelons from me.  -1 watermelon for the smell that gets well, for the lack of better word, nauseating.

 

 

 

Sephora sells a small can for $10, and a full size can for $24.  Get it before I buy it all up!
