Seeing as I'm officially going on holiday in one week (yay!) it's time to start testing out the waterproof products. I've been trying some eyeliners, eyeshadows and even bronzers but most importantly mascaras! 

I'm sure you know that absolute pain of trying to remove waterproof mascara, I do have a useful tip which you can read here, but for now I've been playing around with different makeup removers to see which is most effective. Of course there's the brilliant but pricey Lancome Bi Facil which I go through at the speed of lightening when used daily. I've recently found Melvita Soothing Eye Make-Up Remover to be somewhat of a similar formula and slightly more effective
The formula contains two 'phases' just like Bi Facil, which do need shaking before use. It's quite oily so does lift off eye makeup really easily whilst feeling really moisturising. I found that oily formulas were much more effective at removing waterproof eye makeup, especially mascara. Why I'm proclaiming my love for Melvita's Eye Makeup remover is there was no need for tugging and rubbing at my eyes whilst trying to remove eye makeup. Just the dousing of a cotton pad and holding and pressing against my lids.

I have a hunch this will be a definite staple in my summer makeup removal routine!

Melvita Eye Makeup Remover is £14 and available here

What are some of your favourite waterproof products?
