From the female of the family. I use a number of La Roche-Posay products, made in France, and swear by them. This waterproof-makeup remover is the latest in my arsenal. I don't often use waterproof mascara or eyeliner, but when I do, I want it to come off easily and cleanly. I feel the same way about any type of eye and lash makeup, waterproof or not. I don't want to use any product that requires me to rub the delicate skin around my eyes. This cleanser removes the makeup easily and effectively, without irritating skin or eyes.
