Beauty in Simplicity

Avene Gentle Eye Make-up Remover is a no-nonsense product which is highly effective at removing make-up --- even stubborn long-lasting or weather-proof varieties. It does so without irritating even very sensitive skin; it is specifically designed to be suitable for the delicate skin around the eyes. With only 8 ingredients, less is truly more when it comes to being gentle on skin.

The gel-like consistency of this product makes it very unlikely any will be accidentally dripped into the eyes. Accidents do happen though --- with Avene Gentle Eye Make-up Remover there are no wories about damage to eyes or contact lenses. With a pH balance matching that of natural tears, it is unlikely to even sting.

This no-rinse product is also very convenient, even if sensitive skin or contact lenses are not a concern --- ideal for use on the road, at work, or in other situations in which access to water and cleaning supplies are not always readily available.

Like most Avene products, a key component of Avene Gentle Eye Make-up Remover is Avene Thermal Spring water. This mineral-rich water, originating from the Cevennes Mountains of southern France, is clinically proven to promote skin health and rapid healing of damaged or infected skin. It leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and comfortable, without disrupting the skin's delicate pH balance or stripping the skin of its natural defenses.

Directions for use: Apply a small dab of the gel to a cotton pad or other soft surface and gently wipe away make-up. For best results start on eyelids and finish with lashes. The product does not need to be rinsed off and will not leave an oily or greasy residue. Other skin-care products or fresh make-up may be applied immediately after use if desired.
