Help Removing Benefit "They're Real" ?

This was one of my Mascara Madness purchases and overall, it's a nice mascara.

Goes on fairly dry, all day wear, no raccoon eyes and doesn't flake.

BUT OMG...........trying to remove it!! {#emotions_dlg.scared}

If you use this any tips on what works REALLY well?

TIA!!

This is a hard mascara to remove! I use either my oil cleanser or Almay oil-free gentle eye makeup remover pads.

I'll have to try your suggestions!

I had some Clean & Clear cleansing cloths on hand and tried those.

Works but not very well and usually get the raccoon residue left behind. They are oil free so maybe oil is the trick to getting the residue off?

I'm trying to like this mascara!!

One of my very favorite mascaras. Love it. Very easily removed with Sephora eye m/u remover or Boscia cleansing oil.

I clean my face with an oil cleanser and have not found a m/u product yet that it won't readily remove. I do agree that when something is more of a challenge, using something with lots of oil is often the trick - especially when it comes to eye products. No scrubbing required either~
