Re: Please, please please help...gentle mascara and gentle oil free eye make up remo

[Guest guest]

hi shelley,

i don't know if this is one you can tolerate, but

i have used lancome's bifacil waterproof mascara

remover for years. it is gentle, easily removes

the mascara -and- does not sting my eyes. i can

remove my mascara long before i am ready to go to

bed and read, watch tv or whatever without any

eye irritation. (however i should add that in

general my eyes do not bother me.)

and i can relate to what you said about your

eyes, mascara at work...my eyes feel alot better

when i wear mascara too. my theory is that it

thickens my eyelashes and makes a more protective

" fringe " for my eyes than I naturally have. (i

have thick eylashes but they are blonde and not

that long)

Also it's amazing how much better my skin is when

i am not in front of a moniter all day long and,

maybe most significantly, out from under those

evil tubes of fluorescent lights! i do contract

work and at the assigment i just finished i was

able to completely take out all the lights that

were over my head. it made such a HUGE difference

i can't even tell you.

and putting the glare/radiation screen on my

moniter helped too. i wonder if you could make

any of those changes at work? oh, the other

lighting idea is to replace the cool white tubes

with the daylight ones (they cast a softer,

pinker light)

i have not had much success with those

full-spectrum lights that are available now; they

are harsher to my eyes.

anyway, i know you weren't actually posting about

lighting. but there you go!

hope you find a good product!
