Heard it does and I know it makes my eyelashes longer so that would be a bonus ahha.

Yes but I'd suggest coconut oil instead!

Awesome thanks Shanae! Yeh I've used coconut oil before and it works awesome but I'm really broke at the moment and coconut oils pretty expensive atm so I'm just going to use olive oil till I have a spare $12 hahaha

Maybe it's because I live in Italy and the only olive oil I have is super fresh and extra virgin, but I find it way too aromatic, it almost stings. I wouldn't put it near my eyes. Probably the non virgin is better :)

It works but I do not recommend using olive oil or coconut oil. These oils do work in removing makeup but they can also veryyyy easily create buildup in your eye area and cause infection. Even if you think your washing it all off it may still leave a slight film in the eye which builds up over time. Also many people cannot use coconut oil on their face since it breaks them out because it clogs pores! I would stick to makeup remover wipes such as ponds makeup remover wipes!

If you use them make sure you use a cleanser after to get rid of build up
