Benefits
Due to the luscious certified organic ingredients this innovative product removes instantly and also nourishes the very delicate eye area, leaving the area feeling fresh and smooth.

A new brand which I recently came into contact with, this is what it says about the brand.
Inika products are touted to be pure, natural and made from the finest crushed mineral pigments. They are free from harsh chemicals including fillers, talc, bismuth oxychloride, GM ingredients, parabens, preservatives and fragrances. Inika is certified cruelty free and one of the few certified vegan makeup brands on the market.

I purchased this product off feelunique.com as there was a promotion on it. Sad to say, the promotion was due to its near-expiry date of the product which has never been clearly mentioned on its site.

Despite buying beauty products online for several years on other websites, I have never encounter such dishonest sales. Even Strawberrynet and Iherb would state the expiry dates on their promotional items clearly.
I should have checked the dates once I received the items but I forgotten to do that and now its just too late for any remedy.

I kept it for a while before deciding to use it recently and realized that its near expiry date. I used it once so its terribly expensive for it to cost me $30 for that 1 usage. It not worth using an expired product on my face and face the possibility of sensitivities and allergies.

I have a good experience in using it but bad after-effects. I can't say if its due to the near-expiry date but it has certainly marred my experience of using this world's first certified Organic Eye and Makeup Remover product..

The initial cleansing experience has been great. Even though this Eye and Make-up Remover is creamy in texture, it is recommended to be used on cotton pads which I found it to be odd since I like to use creamy textures directly with my fingers onto the skin.
It reminded me vaguely of Naruko lotions which are creamy in texture and are to be used on cotton pads too.

I do not fancy using creamy products near the eyes so I use a separate remover for the eye area. The product cleanses off the make-up gunk in a breeze, leaving a nourished after-feel. Skin feel supple and smooth after washing with clean water. It has an unique scent, with a hnt of aloe vera and something else.

The horror is that, within minutes, my skin starts to turn red and feels slightly warm when touched. If I did not look into the mirror, my skin actually feels fine, without any itchness to boot.
It gets especially red around the T-zone and slightly near the cheeks.

Misting and dabbing with Avene Thermal Spray soothe it and it sort of cleared after 30minutes though I can't say the subsiding is entirely due to the Thermal Water Spray.

Without the redness, my skin actually feels soft and supple after using the make-up remover so too bad, about the redness. Expensive too!
