You know that I love to bat a lash at the latest eye makeup trends, darling. So, it’s only fair that I divulge how to dispose of eye makeup with just one swipe. Here are my top tips on how to have the best eyebrows over 50, and check out my roundup of the best magnifying mirrors. I’ve got my eye on keeping you in the beauty know!

I read once that Dolly Parton sleeps with her makeup on, “In case I have to get up in the middle of the night,” but the rest of us don’t want to be caught in yesterday’s makeup the morning after. (Sorry, Dolly.) Here’s my list of the best eye makeup removers. Read it and you won’t be caught with raccoon eyes! Isn’t that the worst?

Best Makeup Removers for Women Over 50

Yes to Cucumbers Eye Makeup Remover Pads: If you want to remove makeup with just one swipe, try the Yes To Soothing Hypoallergenic Facial Wipes. These are so very gentle and hypoallergenic, of course. They are pre-moistened wipes that safely remove all traces of eye makeup thanks to Calendula, Chamomile, and Organic Cucumbers. Yes To Soothing Hypoallergenic Facial Wipes are 99% Natural Petroleum, SLS, & Paraben Free. Cruelty-free, too! Get them, HERE!

Ahava’s Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover: Ahava’s eye makeup remover is among the best I have tried. Truly gentle and yet oh-so-efficient at removing even the blackest of mascaras and eyeliners. Ahava’s Gentle Eye Make-up Remover is Hypoallergenic, Ophthalmologist tested, and worth every penny, at $19.50 for 4.2 oz. Purchase yours, HERE.

Ole Henriksen Face the Truth Gel Cleanser: Danish Ole Henriksen studied skincare and cosmetic chemistry in London before heading stateside to open his signature spa on Sunset Boulevard. He’s treated a long list of celebrity clients including Charlize Theron, Mathew McConaughey, and Christy Turlington.

    Baby oil followed with a baby wipe or two easily removes my water proof eye makeup. It’s gentle and effective as well as inexpensive.

  2. Margianne Feller says:

    Actually one of the best is J&J Baby Shampoo. My eye doctor put me on to that years ago and it is truly the best. One swipe across my eyes at the end of washing my face and it is all gone. Love your blog!!!

  3. Gail Mchaffie says:

    Hi my name is Gail and I was wondering,
    Do you sell your white T-shirt with good written on it. I would love to buy one.

    Thank you
    Gail

      Would you believe I bought it at Saks about 5 years ago! A salesgirl called me about the T-shirt. Warmly, Honey

  4. LuAnn Penland says:

    Honey, I have used one of your picks, Neutrogena Oil Free Gentle Eye Makeup Remover, and I adore it. My eyes are sensitive and most of the others I have tried irritate them. Several times I have swapped off, for some strange reason, to others like Dior, Lancome, etc, but always go back to my favorite. Often it is not the most expensive that is the best. I love great skin care products and always appreciate your input. Give America a tummy rub for me.

    • Honey Good says:

      America loves his tummy rubs!!! OMG I love my pooch. There are no words. I will try your Neutrogena. I do use the sunblock with Zinc. It is very white so I mix it with my make-up in the palm of my hand and then apply. Do you have a pooch now? Sending my friendship across the miles from my home to yours. Warmly, Honey
