I know it's probably beauty blogger sin 101, but only up until recently I always used wipes to take off my makeup after a long day. I can hear beauty gurus everywhere practically gasping in shock, and I hate to admit it but come the end of the day, I'm pretty lazy and all I want to do is swipe my makeup off and crawl straight into bed. There's nothing quite like taking off a full face of makeup after a long day, and I'm pretty sure any other girl out there will agree. It's like the face equivalent of taking off your bra, right ladies?
Anyway, since attending the Beauty Blogger Awards a while back, I've been using this fantastic eye makeup remover from a brand I met there. Founded in 2005, Nouveau Lashes were created as specialists in the eyelash beauty department. Typically a relatively small niche, Nouveau grew within the industry to become a leading specialist in eyelash products and treatments, and into the brand we know and love today.
Designed to gently but thoroughly remove even the most stubborn of eye makeup, the new Micellear Eye Make-Up Remover* also helps to promote thicker and healthier eyelashes. The gel also soothes and hydrates the eye area, which after a long day can feel fantastic. It's moisturising too, and if there's one thing I always forget, its that the eyes need a bit of TLC aswell. The eye area is the most delicate, and as such, it needs some special attention - typically I use Benefit's 'It's Potent!' eye cream in the morning, and it's nice to have something to give a bit of hydration in the evenings too.
Cooling on the skin, the eye makeup remover is the perfect product to use on even the hardest of makeup. On occasion I use Benefit's 'They're Real', and anyone else out there who's used it before knows how stubborn it can be - it's even warranted its very own remover! Thankfully though with Nouveaus own release, there's no need to splurge out on the relatively small Benefit remover - it removes all traces of the eyeliner, and without any harsh tugging on the delicate skin around the eyes. It's surprisingly easy to use when it comes to waterproof mascaras too, which I've had difficulty with in the past - those stubborn clumps, am I right?! With this gel remover though, the mascara and any another makeup is gently dissolved away, to the point where it can then be easily wiped away with a cotton wool pad.
It feels amazing to be able to use something without having to tug on my eyes so much, and only after I started using this did I realise how much I had actually been putting my eyes through. On occasion I can tend to suffer with redness and sensitivity around my eyes (using just wipes probably didn't help with that in all honesty), but since using Nouveau's remover I've noticed that this has now gone down. The product doesn't sting the eyes either, which is something I've encountered in the past - items that promise to be all good and nourishing for you, but then burn like theres no tomorrow when you use them. Nouveau may be one of the first brands I've encountered that manages to combine a genuinely handy makeup removal product with ingredients that don't make you feel like you've wiped your eyes with bleach, wahoo!
Overall I can't recommend this eye makeup remover gel enough, especially given the sensitivity around the eyes. If you're after a simple solution to get your makeup off after a hard day, and one that works quickly and effectively, then Nouveau's version may just be the product for you. Try it for yourself - I promise you won't regret it!
