NIVEA Double Effect Eye Make-Up Remover

I feel compelled to come here to the Nivea page to share my experience. I have used double effect for years to remove my waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Nothing else would take it off with such ease and I recommended it to everyone. Then for the last 2 months I have been having issues with recurring styes which have been horrendously painful and I have looked disgusting. My eyes have also been very dry and itchy. I put it down to mascara at first and replaced it. Then ended up replacing every single makeup product including eyelash curlers and pencil sharpeners. Still getting styes. In different places and both eyes. I finally felt resigned that it must be hormonal. Started omega 3’s. Didn’t help. By chance I researched this product and lo and behold there has been a reformulation and reading all the reviews here the penny has dropped. Although some of these go back 2 years? I will no longer be using this toxic product and it should be removed from sale. Goodbye Nivea!

I have been using this product for years, although I have noticed something has changed with the ingrediants. Yes it is could at removing makeup, however it is causing my eyes to be puffy, red, sore, watery and have dry flaky skin around my eyes. Such a disappointment as it used to be great.
