The Body Shop Camomile Gentle Eye makeup remover is suitable for sensitive skin and contact lens wearers. Follow The Body Shop make up remover review to know more details about the product.
Makeup removers have become an essential part of your skincare routine. At the end of the day, I always remove my makeup using a makeup remover before going on to use a face cleanser or a scrub. I was traveling to Goa to attend a wedding and I remembered, at the airport, that I forgot to pack a makeup remover! That wasn’t a great situation. But when you are in Bangalore airport you can get almost everything at the departure lounge. Scanning through the shops closely I landed up at the Duty-Free store and picked up this little bottle of The Body Shop Camomile Gentle Eye Makeup remover. The main reason behind his purchase being the price and the travel-friendly bottle.
I have used The Body Shop make up remover several times and I am totally in love with this product. So a full review on The Body Shop Camomile eye makeup remover totally makes sense.
THE BODY SHOP CAMOMILE GENTLE EYE MAKEUP REMOVER | REVIEW

It comes in a transparent bottle with a blue hue with a white cap.

My take on The Body Shop Camomile Makeup Remover
I got the mini version of The Body Shop Camomile makeup remover because it is a travel-friendly pack. You also get a full-size version 250 ml bottle (priced at Rs. 1295/-).
The Body Shop Camomile waterproof eye makeup remover is good if you wear waterproof mascaras and heavy eye makeup. It also claims to be safe for contact lens wearers. It is, however, always recommended that you take off your lens before removing makeup.
You can also use The Body Shop makeup remover to wipe off your long stay lipsticks. You might have to wipe twice.
How to use The Body Shop Camomile makeup remover?
The bi-phase formula has to be shaken before every use to activate the solution. It has oils in it which when shaken up turns into a foamy texture. Dab it on to a cotton pad and swipe over your eyes and lips to remove all traces of makeup.
This is a travel-sized bottle and the wrapper around it covers most of the bottle. But if you look closely you can spot the two distinct layers of oils and watery solution.
It is a clear solution with no added fragrance or color.
Does it irritate the eyes?
If you are wearing only eyeshadow and liner the makeup would come off in one single swipe. I hold the cotton on my eyelids and count till three and then swipe. Those three seconds are enough to wipe the eye shadow and liner. However, if you are wearing waterproof mascara you might need to swipe two times.
I haven’t felt any irritation in eyes so far because I don’t use waterproof makeup and I have not had to use it repeatedly. Camomile otherwise is an ingredient that is good for soothing skin.

Would I recommend The Body Shop Camomile Gentle Eye Makeup Remover?
I would totally recommend it for removing eye makeup and lip stains. However, I don’t use this on my face. Isopropyl Palmitate is comedogenic and might bother girls with acne-prone skin.
I like using a cream-based formula for the skin and water-based removers for the eyes.
