Taking Sile’s advice in a previous blog I headed into The Body Shop after years of dismissing the place (I think I still have about 3 Body Shop gift baskets under the sink in my mam’s house). After Siles review of the Body Shop Nutriganics Softening cleansing gel I decided to give it a go and I though it was great (Thanks Sile). But while I was in there I also noticed the Camomile Waterproof Eye Make-Up remover which piqued my interest. So after liking the cleanser so much I took another trip in to get it. So happy that I did. It's described as “A rich and creamy lotion specially formulated to very gently yet effectively remove all traces of waterproof and long-lasting make-up, leaving the delicate skin around the eye area feeling soft, smooth and soothed. Alcohol, colour and fragrance free.”
I have sensitive eyes and can find a lot of cleansers make them sting a little, but this one didn’t even make my eyes water. I do love to pile on the auld eyeshadow on a night out ( I blame the urban decay book of shadows, too many lovely shadows and not enough eye lid to wear them all…but I try). By the end of the night my eye make-up is a little worse for wear and a quick swipe with this cleanser and I am good for bed. I even found I could rub this right into my lash line to take off liner and mascara and not even the slightest sting. With most eye cleansers I do find that after I get the make up off I have to re-wash with water as I don’t like leaving a trace of the product on my eyes as it irritates them but this is so soothing that I didn’t have to.
All in all loving this product and when I bought it the sales girl gave me a sample of a moisturising day cream which I may have to investigate further. May even take another look at those gift baskets under my mams sink. Has anyone else tried any of the Body Shops products lately?
