“Wanted to try this after Ethique sadly left the UK market. Although it removes some dirt it doesn’t remove make up very effectively (I tried on standard non-waterproof mascara). It doesn’t lather and leaves an oily residue which I didn’t enjoy. Won’t be buying again.”

“I repurchased this after loving the first bar I bought (it worked so well), however it seems they've changed the formulation since then and this new bar is so solid to the point I can't rub any of it off onto my washcloth to was my face! If you manage to get any of the product on your cloth, it still works very well though. Could you have a look at the formulation again and make it a wee bit softer so it's actually possible to use easily it, please?”

Hi Eleanor, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — and for coming back to repurchase, we really appreciate your support. I’m sorry to hear the latest rena Lipophilic Makeup Remover feels much harder than your previous one and is making it difficult to use. That definitely isn’t the experience we’d want, especially as you’ve enjoyed the product before. We’ll pass your comments about the texture and ease of application directly to our product team so they can review the current formulation and see what may have changed. Thank you again for flagging this — it’s really helpful for us. Warm Regards, Andrea - team grüum

“This is by far the best makeup remover ever, especially for sensitive skin. Gentle on the eyes, easily removes make up even waterproof mascara! I still use other face cleansers to wash my face but always use this first to remove my makeup. Can't be without this now, my go to makeup remover. Please don't ever discounting this!”

“I've been using this for a few years now to remove makeup in the evenings and it works beautifully. Really gentle on my skin and doesn't sting my eyes when running over mascara. The bars last a long time too. It's a core staple for me!”

“This is a creamy, non lathering bar, which only feels creamy after you have scrubbed a bit with it. It leaves a bit of an oliy residue but is not unpleasant, possibly hydrating. It seems to remove makeup well, due to the oil-based substance.”

“This is a fantastic product! I applied to my face and removed with a wet face cloth. It took away all traces of makeup including foundation and mascara without any stinging in my eyes. My skin felt clean but not tight. Afterwards I rubbed some directly on the cloth and rinsed in hot water and all makeup stains were removed from a white face cloth. Outstanding!”
