Since eyes are "windows to the soul" I think its important to frame those windows appropriately! So most days I like to apply eyeliner, mascara and eye shadow to give some life and sparkle to my eyes! But sometimes taking this eye makeup off at the end of the day is not an easy task so I need effective but gentle eye makeup remover specifically formulated for this job!
Before I found Lauren Brooke’s SubLIME Liquid Eye Makeup Remover I was using Avon’s Moisture Effective Eye Makeup Remover… which low and behold is an astonishing 10 on the Think Dirty app. One dirty, toxic ingredient was responsible for making this eye makeup remover a “10”… DMDM Hydantoin which is a formaldehyde releasing agent that is actually a Class 1 Carcinogen…. Um thanks but no thanks, I am definitely Tossing this one Out and never looking back!

Lauren Brooke DOES NOT use this ingredient in her eye makeup remover, instead she uses safe and nourishing ingredients!
Her SubLIME Liquid eye makeup remover is infused with cold-pressed Certified Organic Pumpkin Seed and Safflower oils which contain exceptionally high levels of Vitamins C, E, A, K and Essential Fatty Acids which creates an emollient-rich product that deeply nourishes and supports healthy skin, plus it has an uplifting & rejuvenating scent from the Key Lime oil. This eye makeup remover naturally and gently cleanses the delicate tissue around the eyes! 99.5% of the ingredients used are Certified Organic and all of these ingredients are 100% Non-GMO. Take a closer look at the benefits of these skin loving ingredients below:
Key Ingredients:
Pumpkin Seed: Is an antioxidant and a nutrient which supplies nourishing Vitamins A & E to the skin.
Green Tea: Is rich in polyphenols, enzymes and amino acids. It's also anti-inflammatory, an anti-oxidant, contains anti-cancer properties and helps to improve the elasticity of the skin.
Key Lime: Helps to lighten dark spots, is a natural exfoliant and has an energizing and rejuvenating scent.
Here is a full list of their Vegan Ingredients:
Certified Organic Cucurbita Pepo (Pumpkin) Seed Oil, Certified Organic Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Oil, Certified Organic Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Sweet Orange), Certified Organic Citrus Aurantifolia (Key Lime), Certified Organic Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Extract, Non-GMO Natural Vitamin E Oil.

This eye makeup remover is so gentle around my eye area and very moisturizing! It’s very effective at getting all of my eye makeup off at the end of the night and I don’t have to tug at the delicate skin around my eyes! Just knowing that I’m applying something so nourishing for the delicate skin around my eyes makes me happy. Not to mention all of the anti-aging benefits you get from the green tea and pumpkin seed extract that's in it! I would even go as far as saying you could apply it topically at night as a treatment product for your eyes and skin, but that's just my opinion! I also love love love the refreshing citrus scent from the Key Lime extract. It’s like a mini aromatherapy treatment every time I use this product. It is not only a very effective eye makeup remover but it’s also enjoyable to use!
This is a new product from Lauren Brooke and I was lucky enough to be provided with a sample to try it out. You can try it out on your own for only $5.00 US for a sample size or $14.50 US for a full size. Just a side note the "samples" are packaged in little glass containers just like the full size ones, so you don't have to worry about any plastic seeping into your product and this size is just fantastic to carry along in your travel bag!
This eye makeup remover is very simple to use, you just apply some of the oil to a cotton pad and hold it on your eye for a few seconds to help loosen the eye makeup, then gently swipe away the excess. If you prefer you can also use your fingertips to massage the product onto your eyes and remove the excess with a wet washcloth or tissue paper! It doesn't cause any irritation to my eyes! Since this product is an "oil" it just seems to melt away all of my eye makeup effortlessly without tugging or pulling at the eye!

Here is my little sample on the left and on the right you can see the consistency on my hand, it the same consistency as any face oil.
I highly recommend Lauren Brooke’s SubLIME Liquid Eye Makeup Remover! I am really happy to finally be using a product that removes all of my eye makeup effortlessly and uses clean and organic ingredients that are beneficial for the eye area!
I will say it again Lauren Brooke is one of my top picks for clean beauty which is why I keep coming back time and time again. She offers amazing sample sizes too so you can be sure that each product is right for you before committing to a full size! In fact every time I try a sample size I end up purchasing the full size immediately and this SubLIME Liquid Eye Makeup Remover is no different, I will definitely be purchasing a full size of this liquid gold in the near future!
