I think Benefit BadGirlBang mascara is great but it does not come off easily even though I do not use the waterproof version.  I like mascara that comes off easily with my Beekman facial bar or Purity.  Any suggestions?  I always had good luck with plain old Covergirl and I just may go back to that brand.  Anyone use IT mascara?

I am loving the Tarte Tubing mascara.  Doesn't smudge or flake and removes easily.

Technically speaking, facial cleansing should be a two-step process; one for makeup removal (cleansing oil, cleansing balm, micelar water) and then the actual cleanser.  I take my makeup off with an inexpensive cleansing oil (Palmers), or a balm, and never have a problem removing my BadGal Bang mascara.

L'Oréal Double Extend tubing mascara. And it's a ( relative) bargain!

@bargainsgirl   I stopped using Purity (especially to remove eye makeup) many years ago becuase it burned my eyes. 

 

I agree w/ the other poster @JeanLouiseFinch who suggested a double cleanse (oil should remove mascara easily) or I use Lancome's Bifacil first...a designated eye makeup remover to take mascara off easily.

 

I wear eithr Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye mascara or L'Oreal Voluminous.

After reading about it here on these boards my new fave mascara is Essence Princess False Lash Effect Mascara - it volumizes and lengthens.  $5 on Amazon.  I've used every  mascara on the market including the most expensive dept store brands - love this.  Easy to remove too - I use Neutrogena makeup remover wipes then a facial cleanser but the wipe takes it all off.

I remove Bad Gal Bang with micellar water.
