Coconut oil. Great for taking off makeup, especially for eyes.

I use Borghese Gentle Eye Make-up Remover. It comes in a very large jar so it seems expensive, but it lasts for a very long time. You can probably get in on line. Nordstoms still sells it.It doesn't work on waterproof make up though.

I have used olive and mineral oils to take off water proof mascara, and they work fine. But then you have to find something to wash your face with that will remove the oil :)

Best wishes,
