It does a really great job in removing my make up, sunscreen or whatsoever. I've been using this for about a month now and I mainly use it at night before I cleanse with a cleanser. It stings my eyes though whenever I use it to remove my mascara and eyeliner. That's why I just gave it 4 stars, otherwise I would've given it 5 stars. 🫶
