How to junk the gunk

Suffering from mascara overload? Some make-up removers don't always get rid of all the residue and you can end up with unwanted build-up. Here's our top three remedies...

Amazingly, I’ve managed to get away with not using an eye make-up remover for years. Until now! I kept waking up in the morning with panda eyes and couldn’t work out why. But then I realised that I’d been loading my lashes with mascara to get this autumn’s heavy lash look and my usual facial cleanser wasn’t getting all the mascara off. Time to take action and, after trying possibly every eye make-up remover on sale, I’ve found three that work (and don’t sting).
