The Body Shop Camomile Waterproof Eye & lip Make up Remover

Like a lioness stalks its prey and grabs it immediately that’s the way I was waiting for “The Body Shop Christmas and New year sale”. Though I hunt as and when the chance arises but as the sale started, there was no limit of excitement. Being an opportunist I, bought for myself a pack of body butters which consisted of four variants, a body scrub and Camomile waterproof eye & lip make up remover which I am reviewing here today.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH  The Body Shop Camomile WATERPROOF EYE & LIP MAKE UP REMOVER

Chamomile is a daisy like plant and is used in a number of cosmetic products because for its anti inflammatory effects and soothing and moisturizing effect to the skin!

I was quite unhappy with my last make up remover from colorbar ( COLORBAR ULTIMATE MAKEUP REMOVER FOR OILY & COMBINATION SKIN) and was desperately searching for an option which delivers what it claims without cracking a joke or making a fuss! Luckily I found the new launch The Body Shop Camomile which looked quite promising and hence I agreed to shell out few extra bucks for it! It’s a transparent sturdy bottle with liquid like lotion inside. The flip top cap makes it travel friendly and keeps the lotion intact and it doesn’t smell of/like anything. Its consistency is that of plain water and feels a little like oil ( on face) but is not over oily and can be used by oily skin as well. I have sensitive, oily, acne prone skin and didn’t feel or face any problem while using it.

Thankfully this is something which will remove your waterproof makeup without any hassle! I do wear waterproof mascara, eye liners and few lipsticks which leave a darn rigid stain and all this makeup is wiped out easily with this soothing lotion! I just need to put the cotton soaked with this lotion over the eyes for few seconds and swipe it with little or no pressure. All the makeup is immediately removed and it didn’t sting. My eyes praised me for my “mega TBS sale” buy!!!

All the waterproof makeup on my hand

With just one swipe

TURN OFF: The Body Shop Camomile WATERPROOF EYE & LIP MAKE UP REMOVER

1)    The high-price maybe (but recently TBS held a big sale where it was available on discount! So do follow this product and test it yourself if high price is keeping you away from it).

2)    It gives a bit oily feeling which might be bothersome for some. (I always wash my face with my cleanser after using the makeup remover so the little oily feeling doesn’t bother me as long as the job of removing makeup is done efficiently!) Also, I feel it makes eye a bit blurry if a little goes inside the eye but it definitely never stings 🙂

COSMOCHICS RATING: 5/5

It’s quite soothing to my sensitive skin and takes care of my sensitive eyes. It wipes off the makeup efficiently and leaves no traces (Just like a “Professional criminal”…Mama I am in love with a criminal….. (Song Britney spears..ooops out of topic!)
