Hey, Fashionistas! I know it’s been a while since I published any post. I have been super active on my Insta page (@stalktalkfashion) though, so if you follow me there, you must have seen me frequently. However, my wordpress blog has been sidelined for about a month. It’s just that I have been juggling through many projects and haven’t managed time very well. Enough babbling for now! Let’s get back to the product review. Yay!
When I saw Maybelline New York’s New Clean Express Total Clean Express Eye & Lip Makeup Remover on a supermarket shelf a few years ago, I snorted a little and made a sarcastic comment to my friend,”Yeah! sure. Now I need a makeup remover just for my eyes and lips.” Still, ironically enough, I was back after a few days to grab a bottle of the same for myself. I had just began using Chambor’s eyeliner and it was super waterproof. Along with the eyeliner, I had bought red lipcolor too of the same brand (Chambor). Both the products were very stubborn and refused to come off even with a face wash. I was beginning to worry about my eyes and lips. So, I decided to push my sarcastic stupid ego to a side and bough the product that I had mocked just a few days back. Trust me, I needed it.
On first look, I was fascinated with the two different layers of solution visible inside the bottle. It is extremely fascinating. I wish I had an unused bottle to show you what I am talking about, but for now try to really focus and see the two layers in this picture.

The formula that Maybelline has used in this makeup remover gets rid of even the most stubborn lip colors, eyeliners, and kajal. Mascara takes a little effort in coming off, but that’s only beacuse I am too careful with my lashes — I don’t wanna accidently pull them off and remain lash-free for the rest of my life. Just a little amount of the remover on a cotton pad is enough to remove eyeliner and kajal from both the eyes. I take an entirely new cotton pad to remove lip color because I don’t want to cause any unwanted issue on my lips by using liner and kajal stained cotton.
This is definitely an effective remover and it does what it promised. Nevertheless, I have observed one issue and that’s mostly commonsense: while cleaning the eyes, make sure not to take a lot of the product on the cotton because when you are pressing on the lids, you don’t want the excess amount to get squeezed into the eyes. I have failed to do so 2-3 times and it caused irritation in my eyes. Other than it, this is an excellent product.
