I hate wearing mascara because it is so hard to remove. Baby oil works, but it usually gets in my eyes and makes them water.  |

I usually wear mascara that isn't waterproof because it's so much more easier to get off, but if you wanna get waterproof mascara off, try using lemon juice. But make sure NOT to get it in your eyes, just right under your eye.  |

It's called taking a towel and roughly rubbing your eyes until all of the eye make-up comes off. I wear alot of eye make-up and its MAC so it doesn't come off unless I do that.  |

Eye make-up remover pads are pretty inexpensive and work great. Baby oil is good too.  |

For no cost...I wash my face w/ my facewash, splash my face w/ water and rub my eyes with a washcloth. Now that I have raccoon eyes I take a section of my washcloth, squirt soap on it, and rub it under my eyes. I promise it'll come off!  |

Use a very small amount of baby oil soaked onto a tissue or cotton ball.  |

I just use my regular face & body lotion (St.Ives Cologen Elastin) put some on a cotton round (I moisten the cotton round first, so it isn't too rough or damaging to my eyes). It works perfectly everytime (even on waterproof). It comes off easily, completely and gently.  |

Here's the cotton rounds I am speaking of, I don't buy them online though. You can buy them at any drug store, Walmart or something-http://www.anyotc.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=5736 you can also try a different brand. |

Here's the lotion, I use-http://www.stives.com/products/hbl/02_hbl_ce.cfm It's great! I love it, I can use it for my body and face and it is really inexpensive. You can also buy it at almost any discount or drug store. It is really gentle, I am easily irritated by some lotions and creams, even the expensive ones, but not this one. This one is also really great-http://www.stives.com/products/fc/gc/01_gc_cem.cfm to use as a cream for body, face and make-up removal. |

I don't wear waterproof mascara but I still used to have a problem getting all the mascara and eye liner from around my eyes. I recently just started using a new face wash, and it works great on my eye make up as well! No more racoon eyes. And it's pretty cheap. It's clearasil (however spelled) Ice wash.... it has alacylic acid in it, makes your face real cool and clean after. I love it!! **Dolphin Glitz**  |

Mary Kay's cleanser will get off face makeup, and eye makeup, too. I wash all my stuff on every night with it, but you do have to take a washcloth and rub under your eyes to get all the eyeliner off...HipChik  |

Baby oil. Use a cotton ball doused with baby oil and gently wipe it away. Works just as well with waterproof mascara too.  |

i usually use my foaming cleaner... works quite well.. avoid rubbing it all off because the skin around your eye is really soft and can damage much easier then the rest of the skin on your face(that is why when you get tired you get bags and look like you have a pair of black eyes)  |

Use vaseline, it works great - be very gentle when removing any make up from around your eye area as the skin is a lot thinner and doesnt contain the same amount of elasicity as other parts of your body, and if you are rough with it you will end up with bags and wrinkles WAY before your time! Oh and always use an eye cream, specially at nite  |

DON'T scrub your eyes hard!!! I am a cosmetologist, and that is the best way to bring out premature lines and wrinkles. It is one of the most efficient ways to damage the skin around your eyes, along with smoking and sun exposure. Use Pond's Cold Cream. A little bit goes a very long way, it moisturizes, and it doesn't sting. And with any makeup remover, rub a little on, wait several seconds to dissolve, then wipe off gently.  |

I used tp have that problem, but what fixed that was if you get brands like Max Factor, Revlon, that kinda stuff, if you dont get that in a waterproof, it wont come off if your eyes water. I get watery eyed before, I've full on cried with it on and it doens't come off. And when its time to take it off, when you wash your face, use your fingertip to lightly rub over your under eye, and after you wash your face, when you put in lotion, lightly rub a bit of lotion under them. Then if it still isn't off, take a cotton swab with some lotion on it and lightly rub the rest off, easy and inexpensive  |
