  Pros

  MAC's Gently Off Eye and Lip Makeup Remover is a dual-phase cleanser that combines oil and water to effectively and gently remove even the most stubborn waterproof makeup from your eyes and lips without irritation. When you shake it, you can see the oil and water layers mixing together. It's been ophthalmologist-tested, so it shouldn't cause any tingling sensation in your eyes. To use, first shake the bottle well to blend the two layers. Then, saturate a cotton pad with the product and gently press it onto your eyelids, allowing the formula to break down the makeup. Softly wipe around your eyes to remove the makeup. If you want to eliminate any residual rich feeling, you can follow up with a cleansing foam. The cap requires a bit of pressure to open - just push down slightly and twist. What's great about this remover is that it works hard to dissolve even heavy makeup, so you don't need to rub aggressively. I highly recommend it as it thoroughly cleanses, reaching into the fine lines around your lips and eyes for a truly deep clean.

  Cons

  The only downside is that it's on the pricier side. It would be nice if it were a bit more affordable.

  Pros

  This eye makeup remover is as good as Chanel's! I can't use just any remover, but this one is great. It's less irritating to the eyes, and it even removes MAC lip tattoos effortlessly in one swipe - something I've struggled to find before. I'll definitely be repurchasing!

  Cons

  While I appreciate that the double-seal cap (which you have to press to open) prevents leaks, it's a bit of a hassle to open every time I want to use it.

  Tip

  The price listed here is 30,000 won, but it's actually gone up. It's now 33,000 won!

  Pros

  As a MAC enthusiast, I've noticed that whenever I visit their stores, they always provide this remover for testing other cosmetics. Every time I use it in-store, it removes makeup effectively without irritation. The purple one is typically offered in stores, but this is the oil-based remover recommended by a MAC store associate. My eyeliner is notoriously difficult to remove, and I've tried many products, but this remover outperforms all others I've used. Being extremely sensitive, my skin reacts badly to the slightest misstep in product choice. However, I've never experienced any issues with this remover. For those concerned about the oiliness of oil-based removers, I found it doesn't leave a greasy feeling. Instead, it leaves my skin feeling soft and fresh after removing eye makeup! I purchased it directly from the department store for $30.

  Cons

  Given that it's a department store brand, the $30 price tag for a remover might give you pause for thought. However, it's incredibly effective and surprisingly gentle, so I reluctantly invest in it despite the tears it brings to my wallet. Apart from the price, I find it quite satisfactory! (To be honest, I deducted one star because it's quite pricey for a remover, but its cleansing effectiveness and other aspects are truly excellent.)

  Tip

  Since it's an oil-based remover, make sure to shake it well before use to mix the ingredients properly. I apply it generously to a cotton pad, hold it over my eyes for a moment, and then wipe - it removes makeup beautifully!
