Eminence Organic Skin Care

Our new friend, Tara, turned us on to an organic skin care line called Eminence. (Hi! Tara)Eminence Herbal Eye Makeup Remover

This spa line is hand-made in Hungary from organically grown ingredients with no artificial coloring or fragrances (you like it already, don’t you?) and has won the hearts of stars like Alicia Silverstone, Goldie Hawn and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

The product we had to try first is their award-winning Herbal Eye Makeup Remover. With cucumber, lavender and chamomile, this extra gentle, non-greasy makeup remover is perfect for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers. (We should note here that while this removes regular mascara with ease, waterproof mascara takes some extra work.)

The scent of this product is divine (we’re a sucker for lavender), but we are totally enchanted by the flat-top pump dispenser. A quick flip of the lid and 2 gentle presses with a cotton round is all it takes. We don’t even have to lift the container from its place on the bathroom counter.

We can’t wait to try the Blueberry Soy Sugar Scrub next!

Wherein taking it off is as easy as putting it on

Shiseido The Skincare Instante Eye and Lip Makeup RemoverWe have finally found an eye makeup remover that completely removes our favorite waterproof mascara.

No more lingering clumps two days later or having to forego the waterproof formula altogether because the thought of having to remove it at the end of the day is just more work than it’s worth.

Nope, not anymore.

Shiseido The Skincare Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover removes the most stubborn waterproof mascaras and it’s incredibly gentle. No rubbing or pulling is necessary, which means more lashes on your lids and less on the bathroom counter.

If you haven’t tried this one yet, it’s definitely worth giving a whirl.
