Warm water leave it in for 10 min then shake it up a bit then empty.. Rinse and repeat or you could take a few tissues warped around a pencil and get the mascara out that way.

I use something called clinique eyemakeup remover, then I funnel it into the bottle and put the lid on. Shake it really well and let it sit for a couple of minutes, then rinse it, if there is still a decent amount of mascara in there, add a bit of nail polish remover and add it to the bottle up to the middle as well as the eye makeup remover liquid, this should get rid of it all, and give it a good shake every now and then.
Hope this helps honey! :) x

After you let it sit in warm water or make-up remover, get a q-tip and twirl it around

Why I am cleaning one out, is to fill it with something else that I put on my lashes, easier distribution.
