In the magazine issue 01/2023, Öko-Test has carefully tested eye make-up removers for their wiping effects. Special focus was placed on the ingredients, gentle eye cleaning and packaging. A total of 18 products with which you "remove your face" scored the top grade. But, as with any test, there are losers who were not convincing at all. Which eye make-up remover you should use to run your face according to Öko-Test:
The best eye make-up remover according to Öko-Test
Dramatic eye makeup, just mascara or the subtle daytime makeup, they all need to be wiped off the face at the end of the day so that the skin can regenerate and stay young overnight. Often it is not so easy to remove the make-up from the face. If it's also waterproof, you won't be able to get out of scrubbing without a good cleaner. Since you don't want to irritate or even injure your skin, an eye make-up remover with the right ingredients is necessary.
The entire Öko-Test on eye make-up removers goes into more detail about the test results and the losers. As the Öko-Test proves, many "good" and "very good" cleaners do not contain harmful substances such as polyethylene glycol compounds or halogen-organic preservatives. However, the test losers can't say the same about themselves. Some of the winners of eye makeup removers:
- Alterra Eye Make-up Remover Vitamin, Rossmann, Grade: "very good"
- Alverde Eye Make-up Remover Organic Calendula, Dm, Grade: "very good"
- Elkos Oil-Free Eye Make-up Remover, Edeka, Grade: "very good"
What is the best way to remove eye makeup?
In order for the highly sensitive skin around the eyes, but also the conjunctiva and cornea, to regenerate after the exertions of the day, the eyes should be clean, especially at night. To successfully remove eye makeup, you should soak two cotton pads with makeup remover and place them on the closed eyelids. Press the cotton pads lightly and let the product sit alone.
After about ten to 20 seconds, the make-up can be wiped off very gently. Rubbing should be avoided, otherwise the sensitive eye area will be irritated. After all makeup is removed, the skin needs a lot of moisture. A mild moisturizer, applied thinly in the morning and evening and lightly patted in, together with a balanced fluid balance of the body, ensures a radiant eye area. For the rest of the makeup, the best cleansing wipes for the face are worth it.
What to look for when buying an eye makeup remover?
If you put on make-up and remove make-up from your eyes, you should pay particular attention to a good remover. According to Stiftung Warentest, soap is too harmful to sensitive eyes because of its pH value and should therefore not be used. In fact, baby wipes and oil, face lotions, and facial tissues are good alternatives, as they are similar in ingredients to those of eye makeup removers.

But with all products, it is important to take a look at the ingredients. After all, you don't want to have any harmful substances on your sensitive eye skin. Therefore, always look at the back of the package to see if there are any polyethylene glycol compounds or halogen-organic preservatives in the removers. Or you can make it easy for yourself and reach for the test winners from Öko-Test. (rah)
