Paula's Choice Waterproof Makeup Remover — Gentle Touch Oil-Free, Aloe & Green Tea, 4.3 oz, Fragrance-Free Hydrating Formula

Paula's Choice Gentle Touch Oil-Free Waterproof Makeup Remover is an extra-mild, non-irritating formula that dissolves long-wear and waterproof makeup while leaving skin hydrated.

This lightweight remover is designed to lift stubborn cosmetics—waterproof mascara, long-wear foundation, and lasting lip color—without stripping or leaving a heavy oily film. Enriched with aloe vera and antioxidant-rich green tea, it targets thorough cleansing as the first step in your evening skincare routine. The formula is fragrance-free, suitable for use around the eye area, and rinses or wipes away cleanly so you can follow with your preferred cleanser and treatments.

How does this remover handle waterproof mascara and long-lasting foundation?

The formulation is balanced to break down pigment and waterproof binders without aggressive rubbing. It loosens tenacious products so they can be wiped or rinsed away, reducing tugging at delicate skin around the eyes.

• Dissolves waterproof mascara and long-wear foundation for easier removal.
• Works with minimal rubbing to protect fragile eye skin.
• Leaves no greasy residue, so follow-up cleansing is simple.

Will this dry out or irritate sensitive skin?

Paula's Choice designed this remover to be gentle and non-irritating: it is oil-free and fragrance-free and includes soothing aloe. The lightweight texture hydrates rather than strips, making it appropriate for sensitive complexions when used as directed.

• Aloe vera helps calm and hydrate skin during cleansing.
• Fragrance-free to limit irritation risk for sensitive users.
• Formulated to avoid leaving a tight, dry sensation after removal.

How should I incorporate it into my nighttime routine?

Use Gentle Touch as the first step to remove makeup before or after your regular facial cleanser, depending on your preference. After makeup removal, follow with toner, exfoliant, serums, spot treatments, and moisturizer to complete your regimen.

• Apply to a cotton pad and gently sweep over eyes and face.
• Rinse or cleanse afterwards with your chosen facial cleanser.
• Proceed with targeted treatments and moisturizer for best results.

Does the remover leave oily residue or interfere with other products?

The formula is specifically oil-free and designed to clear makeup without leaving a greasy film. Because it rinses clean, it prepares skin to receive toners, exfoliants, and serums without interfering with their absorption.

• Oil-free texture that avoids slippery residue on skin.
• Compatible with follow-up skincare steps and treatments.
• Helps ensure subsequent products can absorb effectively.

Who is this for? Paula's Choice Gentle Touch Oil-Free Waterproof Makeup Remover suits anyone who wears waterproof or long-wear makeup and wants a mild, fragrance-free option that prioritizes skin comfort. It’s a practical choice for sensitive skin, those who prefer lightweight, non-greasy cleansers, or anyone seeking an effective first step before a deeper facial cleanse. Packaging may vary; the bottle contains 4.3 ounces and is intended to be used as part of a complete Paula's Choice skincare routine.
