No7 Beautiful Skin Eye Make-Up Remover Review

How do you start a blog post? I honestly do not have any clue how to politely start this. So we'll just dive in.

I wear a lot of eye make-up, even on a daily basis so an eye-makeup remover that can get rid of dark eye shadows, eyeliner and waterproof mascara is a must. I had never thought of looking at No7 for an eye make-up remover but when boots released their £5 off vouchers I figured I had nothing to lose. The bottle itself contains 100ml of product, and is made up of two layers of liquids. One is an oil to dissolve the eye make-up and the other is more like water. Truth be told I have no idea what the second liquid is.





To use the product, the bottle must be vigorously shaken to mix the liquids. Unfortunately you need to act quickly as the liquids begin to separate soon after you stop shaking the bottle. Then just soak a cotton pad with the product, hold over your (closed) eye and the make-up should begin to dissolve and you can gently wipe it away.



The product is effective enough, I usually only need 2 cotton pads to completely remove my eye make-up. Afterwards the skin around my eyes can sometimes feel greasy but a splash of water and perhaps a quick wipe of toner quickly rectifies that. There honestly isn't anything too amazing or special about this product. It removes eye make-up but I'm not wowed by this product. I will use up the rest of the bottle, but it's unlikely I would purchase it at full price when there are other products equally as effective but at a fraction of the cost. All in all, not a bad eye make-up remover but nothing extraordinary. Worth a try if boots are running there £5 off vouchers.
