Think I might give baby oil a try, the gatineau makeup remover i use doesn't seem to work on a regular mascara although I was told it can remove eye make up too. think might have damaged the eye corner skin due to heavy rubbing : (Something with mineral oil in it, Chanel Eye Makeup Remover, Shu Uemura Cleansing Oils or just about any Cleansing Oil from Kose till Shiseido. Cheapest way would be Johnson's Baby Oil. Mineral oil dissolves makeup better than anything, even better than silicones, and you can easily wash it of without rubbing.
