Beauty Barrage: The Little Makeup Remover That Could - Maybelline Eye & Lip

Remember that drugstore product haul I posted last August? If you've noticed, still haven't posted a single review yet! My bad. I don't have a good reason, but on the upside, it means I've been using the products for almost a couple of months now so I'll be able to review them thoroughly.

I'm starting today with the simplest product I got -- the Maybelline Eye & Lip Makeup Remover. I have been using this for years, and it was only part of the haul because I ran out and needed a new bottle. It has become a staple in my makeup bin.

I take my makeup off with cleansing wipes and facial cleanser, but sometimes eye makeup (especially eyeliner and mascara) as well as some lip colors can be hard to get off. That's when I resort to the Maybelline Eye & Lip Makeup Remover. 

It is a pretty blue product that you have to shake before using to mix the formula up. It comes in small and large bottles but I usually get the small one because one bottle lasts an incredibly long time! I usually just need one cotton ball or pad for it and that's enough to remove makeup from both of my eyes, then I use another cotton ball/pad for my lips.  

I love that it's simple, straightforward, and affordable, yet it does the job so well. It pretty much takes the makeup off my entire eye with just one swipe, and the same goes for my lips. No matter how thick my makeup gets, I don't have to resort to really heavy rubbing just to get the color off my skin.  I don't feel any annoying sensations on my skin when I use it either. It's really gentle, and it just works.

Do you use a makeup remover? What kind? Do tell!
