ETUDE Lip & Eye Remover dual-phase makeup remover 250ml — water + oil formula, gentle on sensitive skin

ETUDE Lip & Eye Remover is a dual-phase water-and-oil makeup remover that dissolves waterproof mascara and long-wear lip and eye color while leaving skin comfortable and non-greasy.

Designed in Korea and trusted by millions, this 8.45 fl.oz (250ml) bottle combines an oil layer and a water layer for efficient, gentle makeup removal. Its formula targets pigmented and waterproof products without harsh rubbing, making it a convenient step in nightly cleansing routines. Lightweight and rinse-friendly, the remover lifts makeup cleanly so you can follow with your regular face cleanser.

How does the two-phase (water and oil) formula work to remove makeup?

The water-and-oil system pairs an oil phase that dissolves waxy pigments with a water phase that rinses residue away. Shake the bottle to mix the phases briefly, apply to cotton, and the oil component breaks down stubborn pigments while the water helps carry them off the skin. This approach minimizes scrubbing and reduces tugging around delicate eye and lip areas.

• Oil phase dissolves waterproof mascara and long-wear pigments.
• Water phase reduces oily feel and enables easy rinsing.
• Shake-before-use activates both layers for effective cleansing.

Will it irritate sensitive eyes or skin?

ETUDE Lip & Eye Remover is formulated to be gentle and non-irritating when used as directed, making it suitable for many sensitive skin types. It removes makeup with minimal rubbing, which helps protect fragile eye and lip skin. Always patch-test new products if you have highly reactive skin or known sensitivities.

• Gentle oil base minimizes mechanical rubbing.
• No greasy residue when wiped or rinsed away.
• Suitable for sensitive skin when patch-tested first.

How efficient is it at removing waterproof mascara and long-wear lip color?

Highly rated by users, the dual-phase remover is formulated to lift waterproof and pigmented makeup reliably without multiple passes. Its oil component penetrates waterproof formulas, while the water phase helps clear the dissolved pigments. Many customers report smooth removal of stubborn mascara and long-wear lip stains on the first or second application.

• Specifically designed to tackle waterproof eye and lip products.
• Often removes heavy mascara in one or two gentle wipes.
• Leaves skin ready for the next cleansing step without residue.

How should I use it as part of my skincare routine?

Use this remover as your first cleansing step to take off eye and lip makeup, then follow with your regular facial cleanser to fully cleanse the skin. Shake bottle, saturate a cotton pad, press gently to dissolve makeup, then wipe downward or across until clean. Finish by rinsing or proceed with your double-cleanse for deeper pore cleansing and skincare application.

• Shake before use to combine oil and water layers.
• Apply with cotton, press briefly, then wipe away makeup.
• Follow with your cleanser for a complete double-cleanse routine.

It suits users who prefer a light finish without greasy residue and people following a double-cleanse skincare routine.
