How to Make Eye Make-Up Remover

[Makemyheartmelt143]

i am excited to try this!!!!! i just spent $20 the other day on remover pads......

[Carly198237]

just got up and tried this, it works super good and it doesnt bother my eyes!!!

[steamingleo]

I just use those cheapo wipes 

[therealwillowgrace]

Trader Joe's is fabu! Veggie rolls, yum!

[jzunig0912]

my problem is my mascara, i can never get it off with anything ugh. i feel like i have to rub really hard to get it off, makes my eyes an all around really red and i know it cant be good for my eyes, its just regular drugstore mascara i dont understand why its so hard to remove!

[jackieb376]

@jzunig0912 Just leave it on and clean around the bottom and top of your eyes at night and in the morning. I don't think you have to try to scrub all the mascara off.

[2202nikki]

can it work with vegatabale oil work!!!!

[crayongurl19]

is it still okay to use when it separates again??

[xxreikexx]

@crayongurl19 It will separate fast (maybe half an hour?) because witch hazel is waterbased and olive oil is well, an oil. You will always have to shake it before usage.

[Carly198237]

@crayongurl19 yes just shake it again

[letelitsa7]

you are so perfect...

[sylviemanouche1]

I live in Canada and never heard of Witch Hazel.What is it made of so I can replace it?

[0x0Athena0x0]

@sylviemanouche1 I live in Canada to - Witch Hazel is everywhere. I just bought some at Shoppers.

[sylviemanouche1]

@0x0Athena0x0 Thank you!I live in Montreal...I think that Shoppers has another name in Quebec....because we don't have Shoppers... but I went to a Shoppers in Ontario...thank you I will search...Have a good day!

[ladyssnape]

Too great! I have both of these things already! I just need a container and I'm ready to go!

[schgyl]

i really dont get the thing with not taking of all teh eyliner. but i still love your video.

much love <3

[Sillysallylove]

@misteriousvlogs you could use castor oil instead of witch hazel

[Sillysallylove]

@mysteriosvlogs you could sub. The witch hazel with castor oil

[salsatapatio]

I love witch hazel, but I am afraid to put oil on my face, though I hear olive oil is supposed to be amazing..I am going to try this!!

[belluhhhx3]

i have that shirt!

[mysteriousvlogs]

are there any subsitutes for witch hazel??

[belluhhhx3]

@mysteriousvlogs lotion. it doesn't do as much as witch hazel does (like minimize pores and stuff) but i use lotion as a makeup remover and it works great! it doesn't make my face greasy or anything after either

[sylviemanouche1]

@belluhhhx3 What kind of lotion?

[belluhhhx3]

@sylviemanouche1 i use eucerin but probably anything that's not too oily

[salsatapatio]

@mysteriousvlogs It probably was a bad batch, witch hazel doesnt normally have a strong smell..??

[mysteriousvlogs]

@salsatapatio ? wat r u talkin about? i was asking if theres anything else i could use instead of witch hazel...??

[jewelz4realz]

this was really helpful (: ty for making it. hehe

[gllwd]

I used to have witch hazel and it smells so bad

[sddnskc]

what about extra virgin olive oil?

[Gingie221]

is there anything else i can use instead of witch hazel?

[joryq8]

i use johnson baby oil and it does the job

[JamilaAcfalle]

I love your videos....but I tried it and the next day my eyelid was peeling and it burned so badly so i stopped using it after the second day it was like that for about 2 weeks then got better but i think it was the witch hazel because I've used olive oil on my skin before and I hadn't added anything new to my skin care or makeup besides the witchazel:( but good video!

[nevar121]

OMG i just tried it for my messed up mascara and it worked soooooo good although i used canola oil!!! OMG thiis stuff is AMAZING!! im so happy i found this video thnx sooooo much!!

[abbeyspearsvevo]

can uuse extra virgin olive oil

[piratesandrebels]

@countrydoggie I am definitely going to try this : )

[marymarydel]

@parrowHillRanch

Har aldrig set trollhassel på flaska ;) Kanske kan mala ner och blanda med vatten...? ;)))

[marymarydel]

witch hazel?? I live in sweden and I´ve never heard of this?

[SparrowHillRanch]

@marymarydel Samma här! Trollhassel översatte Google Translate det till... :/

[schgyl]

@marymarydel haha inte jag heller, fattar inte alls

[mcclanekicksass]

@marymarydel det är trollhassel. finns inte alls många produkter som använder det i sverige. jag tror det finns någon ungdomslinje bland ansikts produkter som har det som ingrediens, men inget som det som kandee visade.

[Elinalaw0]

where can I buy some witch hazel ? I'm in France and we don't use it :(

[Manonvc]

@Elinalaw0 Witch hazel is also known as "hamamelis". Just type it in Google and maybe you'll find the French word for it :) I'm in Belgium and I did it the same way, I didn't know witch hazel either.

[abbeyspearsvevo]

is there anything i can use to substitute for witch hazel

[flonoscar101]

@abbeyspearsvevo water

[RockOutLoudTeenDream]

u remind me of my band teacher

[save946]

Thumbs up if you love her reaction at 2:20 WOAH!

[MsShoogaPlum]

Can I keep the mixture of olive oil and witch hazel for a few days in the container ? Does it preserve well?

[MsShoogaPlum]

should the witch hazel be with or without alcohol? There are so many different versions of it, I don't know which one I should buy! Help!

[ThatFiveStarChick]

whats witch hazel?

[xxreikexx]

@ThatFiveStarChick Hamamelis, you can order that in pharmacies!

[starsnrockets01]

can you use toner instead of witch hazel?

[DethMetalDoll]

Thank you kandee I have this at home I just made some thank you

[211lolfunnyvidluver]

THANK YOU!!

[lilwerra]

Is there a differant oil you can subsitute? Ha ha for some reason i cant stand the smell of olive oil!

[aabrilamor]

wow, using them 2getha!!! neva thought of that!

[CutieBeauty10]

Yay! Now I don't hav to buy makeup remover!!! :D

[Soulsister13]

Awesome!!!

[hotsexybitch86]

where can i find witch hazel???

[lisac2020]

@hotsexybitch86 almost anywhere...like target or walmart...its in the same section where the alcohol, band aids, vaseline etc is

[jax252000]

@hotsexybitch86 You can find it in any drugstore or grocery store. It will be in the aisle with rubbing alcohol and peroxide.

[voyovo]

the bare eye is pretty!

[tschuju]

[millymouse993]

[Scene2329]

[kinghappiness123]

[36shima36]

Rick roll'd ._.

[rachel272007]

My daughter who is now 14, and thinks she knows everything, walked through and dissed my diy ( per kj instructions), eye makeup remover. I caught her in it the other day and she admitted that it was "the bomb" and a "lifesaver" LOL!!!

[lizlandavazo]

I WANT THIS SHIRT YOU ARE WEARING

[BabyBoyStitches]

@kandeejohnson can you just use the olive oil? like would it be the same??

[emdancer1698]

Baby oil works well too and it is super gentile because it is for baby skin

[9152011]

@kandeejohnson

does the olive oil or the witch hazel irritate the eyeball?

[primad0nna27]

I believe the product you use contains alcohol. Is that ok to put around your eyes?

[greeneyes2810]

thats so cool i love how you come up or know all this things your great......... thank you kandee love you :)

[msbbdarling]

You look amaaaaaaaaaaaazing in this video. How come I'm only seeing it now?!

[OtterBoxandCompany]

Woot woot for trader joes!(:

[niamhwolohan]

i love u candy ur so CRAZY!

[skoebs]

Do u have anymore all natural tips ? For masks cleansers :) thx

[teriakraml]

Idk if your supposed to use it around eyes because it says keep away from eye area. I just use baby oil, it's just as great

[mrshokulani]

Where do you buy witch hazel? I'd love to try this and for my husband who has big pores and gets razor burn....

[krissyyuD]

Does using this sting your eyes?? Thanks bye the way it was amazing as it just literally all removed in ONE single wipe!!

[Manonvc]

Hi Kandee. My mom is super allergic to almost every kind of make-up remover. She tried everything. I will certainly tell her about this :) Thanks for the tip!

The doctor also said that the traditional, blue NIVEA cream can be used as make- up remover. I also have a mild allergic reaction to some make-up remover. Do you have other tips? Greets from Belgium!

[rabbit666ful]

gr8 tip...:)

[cathyislost18]

Can you use this just to soften your skin?

[ashleekapree]

I use witch hazel everyday, but I HAVE to use it before I get in the shower because it STINKS so bad. Do all brands stink, or is it just the brand I use?

[ericapain]

if it accidently gets inyour eye does it hurt?

[elima84]

ohhh i don't thing i can find witch hazel here!! so i use my sephora's eye make up remover!!it's really good!

[Manonvc]

@elima84 They sell it in super markets, drug stores... Shops that sell natural/bio products and stuff. It's also known as "Hamamelis" (plant). I'm from Belgium, so I looked up the common name because I didn't know what it was either :) But I do know hamamelis.

[leYam4n]

you could sell anything!! you're amazing!

[kaitlynhaas]

Where can you buy witch hazel??

[karolove09]

what if we dont that witch hazel stuff?

[weechookie]

I made this and it is totally amazing - as good as high-end stuff for a fraction of the price! Fab :-D

[huckxing]

... Am I the only one who noticed the video is dated March 20 2011, but it only showed up on my news feed recently?

[TheFattyatheart]

does it matter what kind of olive oil?

[makeupaholic333]

Can u just use witch hazel on its own x

[ChildofYHWHs]

@makeupaholic333 Using witch hazel on it's own will dry your skin out.

[MaddieGracep]

hi!! is it safe to put witch hazel on ur eyes?

[BeckLikesOreos]

i love witch hazel but the smell makes me gag

[springz2000]

Ha! I saw the 80's scrunchie!!!!

[Hishnik83]

does it matter if witch hazel contains alcohol in it or not? thanks...

[Opheliac666]

I LOVE witch hazel!!!!

[xbrandnewxx]

you dont even need to use the witch hazel if you dont want or if your skin is to sensitive for it.. olive oil just on a cotton ball works great for eye makeup remover! makes it slide right off!

[BeckLikesOreos]

@xbrandnewxx I think the witch hazel acts as a "degreasing agent" so the olive oil doesnt clog your pores and cause you to break out

[xbrandnewxx]

@BeckLikesOreos olive oil doesnt clog your pores the molecules in the oil are too big to clog your tiny pores.. and as some people were saying they are sensitive to witch hazel so they can just use olive oil.

[blipVSblop]

I'd love to try this but I'm having a really hard time finding witch hazel in Sweden, got any tips for alternatives?

[paulinakaczor7]

thats disgusting. it will leave your eyes oily

[xbrandnewxx]

@paulinakaczor7 it will be a little oily but olive oil doesnt clog your pores the molecules are too big and all you have to do is wipe your eye with a wet washcloth to get the excess oil off

[christinelc1]

once you make the diy remover, doe sit ever go bad/expire?

[shayshah27]

you're face looks beautiful in this video. Well you always look gorgeous in all your videos, but for some reason your skin is glowing. You are inspiring and fun and everything a women should be!

[9ERICA1]

whoaa thatz amazing..but where can you get the witch hazel???

[xbrandnewxx]

@9ERICA1 any drug store should have it :)

[9ERICA1]

@xbrandnewxx ohh ok thanks :] ill try findin it

[XxsamanthaxX2000]

what is that song/tune called?

[XxsamanthaxX2000]

@XxsamanthaxX2000 at the beginning

[kandeejohnson]

@XxsamanthaxX2000 it's just a song from imovie's editing software! ha ha ha

[cherryxXxqueen]

@endaira78 I think it meant to not squirt witch hazel right into your eyeball.

[swtNsour92]

does this work on waterproof mascara?

[JuLiEnScUpCaKe]

so what happens if u get it in your eye, does it burn or watever?

[megatape12]

Can u do a vid on taking off the double extend tubes because it sounds really cool!

[kandeejohnson]

@megatape12 all you do to take off the double extend tubes, it apply a washcloth with warm water, hold it against lashes for several seconds and they slide right off! it's my favorite part!!! ha ha

[bubblyy701]

i like the intro song... it sounds happy!! :)

[lauragibby]

Thanks girrrrrl!



[amandamoratis]

this works well. I even did a quick wipe across my face to get rid of makeup. I followed with normal cleanser but it gets 'the bulk of make up off' Whitchhazel usally make me breakout (not sure why) but with the blend of oil it seems fine. - I tried just whitchazel the otherday on it's own and it made me break out.

[americangirl5505]

Don't use witch hazel it says right on it to avoid getting in eyes!!!!! Just use baby shampoo and water!!

[CherryBlossom419]

this is a very informative video. I just ran out of my make up remover towelettes and I badly neeeeed a make up remover. I am definitely going to do this. I am so glad I found your video! Thank you! (:

[tarangochick]

Witchhazle smells bad....what can I do to minimize the smell

[smaceylacey]

wait so i saw some witch hazel , but when i got home i reealized it have like 14% alcohol, and it says that it helps with cuts..so im guessing this may not be safe?lol

[nikiichan]

REALLY want to try this X) i might try avocado baby oil cause thats better for my skin :)

just gotta figure out what witch hazel is or like WHERE i should find it hahaha... your eyes are pretty either way kandee :D

[ChristineP0209]

I will def be trying this out!!! My eyes are super sensitive and I'm tired of trying to find my eye makeup remover that doesn't hurt my eyes.

[saintgail]

DOES this work for waterproof mascara?

[CinBlitzBaby]

@saintgail did you watch the whole tutorial...it does!

[samoore3s]

My grandmother always taught me to use baby shampoo and water, its obviously gentle because its for babies and it works great. I have also heard of just using vasiline (spelling is not my strong suit)

[kisah19]

never heard of witch Hazel before.. -.- also does it hurt when you get IN your eye.?

[lightzter]

hahahaha "ooo it looks like a lava lamp!" she's so cute!

[dylhill100]

i just use a mixture of baby shampoo and water. probably 3 parts water and one part shampoo. its super gentle and really cheap

[Yokisano]

"use any kind of olive oil" So I can use Extra Virgin Olive oil... Hopefully because that's the mixture I just put together. Someone comment back to me directly if that's a really bad idea please and thank you.

[smaceylacey]

@Yokisano i use just plain extra virgin olive oil to remove my makeup and its great! so your fine :)

[buttonsheart]

can you purchase whitch hazel at shoppers drugmarts in alberta at all?

[foreverbeautyist]

[thatsmeally]

[nethernity]

[SuperStewTV]

@nethernity It's more watery. It's AMAZING

[5koolgurl]

[makeupbyann101]

WOW! THATS AMAZING!

[TheJenChannel]

Where can I buy witch hazel? I live in Alberta Canada so I'm not sure if its available here

[MrsAlyTi]

@TheJenChannel try looking online. Most stores (grocery store, pharmacy, I don't want to name specific ones in case you don't know them) will have a website where they list many more products because there's MUCH more room in a warehouse than in a store. Hope this helps! :)

[WonderfulsVIP]

Hi I like your videos & your extremely pretty & I just really like you lol. But I wish you would of explained what witch hazel is. What is that stuff & what is it used for? Thanks to whoever answers this! =]

[mzxmir]

@WonderfulsVIP she does on her blog ""Witch hazel is an astringent produced from the leaves and bark of the North American Witch Hazel shrub. It was used for many medicinal purposes by the Native American Indians.

It's used as a natural remedy for everything from psoriasis, eczema, aftershave applications, ingrown nails, to prevent sweating of the face, cracked or blistered skin, insect bites, poison ivy, and as a treatment for varicose veins and even hemorrhoids! ha ha""

[flyingsheepists]

No shadow

[KoreanCockapoo]

has a hard time removing waterproof mascara or mascara ha ha ha :D

[mychewy07]

Wouldn't it hurt if it got in your eye?? O_o

[nikelle1205]
