I had been waiting for a certain someone (et-hem Kristen) to send along some Lancome Bi-Facil for my quest to find a good makeup remover. I know Kristen is a busy girl, so I decided to take the plunge with something that was within my budget and purchase Neutrogena’s oil-free eye makeup remover.
It basically looks very similar to the Mary Kay makeup remover I had been using previously, except that it doesn’t have the holed cap to prevent over doing it when putting some on a cotton pad.
It removed my eye makeup without issue. With my previous makeup remover, I could also use it on my face, which I tried to do with this and just ended up feeling like an oil slick. I know it says oil-free but the aloe vera just felt very slick on my skin.
The scent is nice and clean and the price is very affordable. It worked as it was supposed to, I was just hoping to be able to use it for my entire face. I’ll continue to use it in the interim until I can find a total face makeup remover.
Aaahh! I actually had a whole goody bag of stuff that I brought for you when I was in Philly. I will pop it into the mail when I get a chance. :)
lol. Kristen I was just poking fun. ;)
I do hope we can meet up soon though…but not for free goodies (unless someone is treating both of us)! ;)

In a pinch($$ wise). I use the Rimmel eyemakeup remover, and over my face. It doesn’t seem to leave my face greasy at all.
I use Cetaphil and it’s amaaazing on my face. For eye makeup remover, Lancome’s Bi-Facil is simply the best. No disrespect to this Neutrogena, but it’s all about the Lancome. Smooth, works quickly, and doesn’t leave my eyes feeling greasy.
I used to use this until I got addicted to pad eye makeup removers..I just use the cheapo cvs brand. This did work well, but I found the liquid a little messy and late at night I wanted to skip this step…a definite no no as we all know.
Kiehl’s all the way!
i also think lancome is awesome. even though the neutrogena says eye make remover, i use it for my face too. even though it gets oily like you said, i always wash my face after using make up remover so the oily problem gets resolved.
LUSH has this product called Babyface that is supposed to be amazing at taking off make up! and it’s mostly natural ingrediants too so it’s worth a try!
