Waterproof mascara should not leave your eyes red, puffy, or irritated. Avene Les Essentiels Intense Eye Make-Up Remover uses a biphasic formula to dissolve stubborn mascara and eyeliner without tugging your lash line. If your eyes are sensitive or you wear contact lenses, this is the formula your routine is missing.

Key Benefits

  • Lifts waterproof mascara cleanly: dissolves resistant formulas without rubbing or tugging lashes.
  • Calms the eye area: Avene Thermal Spring Water soothes irritation and reduces puffiness around delicate skin.
  • Safe for contact lens wearers: isotonic concentration matches your eye's natural balance for daily comfort.
  • No rinse needed: leaves zero greasy residue, so your skin feels fresh immediately.
  • Biphasic convenience: one shake activates both phases for a clean and soothing result in one step.

Key Ingredients

Avene Thermal Spring Water: drawn from a natural spring in southern France, it calms irritation and softens the delicate skin around your eyes. Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: a lightweight emollient oil derived from coconut that breaks down waterproof pigments without stripping lashes. Isododecane: a fast-spreading, non-greasy solvent that dissolves long-wear liner and mascara cleanly. Butylene Glycol: a hydrating humectant that keeps the skin around your eyes feeling comfortable after removal.

How to Use

Shake the bottle well before each use to combine both phases. Saturate a cotton pad with the formula. Hold the pad gently over your closed eye for a few seconds, allowing the formula to dissolve your makeup. Wipe softly outward along the lash line. Repeat on the other eye with a fresh pad. Use every evening before your cleanser. No rinsing is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this remover while wearing contact lenses?

Yes, the isotonic formula is designed to match your eye's natural balance, making it suitable for contact lens wearers. However, as a best practice, remove lenses before applying any makeup remover and reinsert them only after your eye area is fully clean and dry.

Do I need to rinse after using this eye remover?

No, rinsing is not required. The formula is designed to leave no greasy residue behind. Simply wipe gently with a saturated cotton pad and your eye area will feel clean and comfortable without a follow-up rinse.

How is this different from the Avene Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover?

This Intense version is formulated specifically for waterproof and long-wear eye makeup, including stubborn mascaras and liners. The Gentle version is better suited for everyday, non-waterproof formulas. Both contain Avene Thermal Spring Water and are safe for sensitive eyes.

Is this biphasic remover safe for everyday use?

Yes, it is formulated for daily evening use. The soothing aqueous phase and the lightweight oily phase work together without stripping the skin, so you can use it nightly as the first step in your cleansing routine without causing dryness or irritation.
