How it works
Apple Seed Lip & Eye Makeup Remover is a bi-phase makeup remover, built specifically for the lips and eyes rather than the whole face. It is used before a regular cleanser, as a first pass to break down eye and lip makeup that a standard cleanser does not always fully remove. Applied with a soaked cotton pad held against closed eyes for a few seconds, it loosens stubborn or waterproof formulas before wiping. It is a targeted step rather than a full-face cleanse, so it does not replace the rest of a normal cleansing routine. Once the eye and lip makeup is removed, the rest of the face is cleansed as usual with a regular cleanser.
Key benefits
- What it is: a 100ml point makeup remover from innisfree, for the eye and lip makeup removal step.
- On the ingredient list: Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Tocopherol, confirmed on this product's own manufacturer list rather than assumed from the category.
- Fits into the routine: dissolves waterproof eye and lip makeup without heavy rubbing.
- Original Korean Formula: the version sold on Korean shelves, not a US reformulation.
Inside the formula
Inside the formula
Is Apple Seed Lip & Eye Makeup Remover enough to clean my whole face?
No, it is built specifically for the eyes and lips; follow it with your regular cleanser for the rest of the face. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Why are there two layers in the bottle?
A bi-phase remover separates an oil and a water layer; shaking combines them so the oil half can break down waterproof makeup. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
How long do I hold the pad against my eyes?
Five to ten seconds is usually enough to loosen stubborn or waterproof makeup before wiping gently outward. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Can I use it on waterproof mascara?
Yes, a bi-phase formula is generally built with waterproof and long-wear formulas in mind. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Is it gentle enough for sensitive eyes?
It is formulated for the eye area specifically, though anyone with very sensitive eyes should still patch test and avoid direct contact with the eye itself. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.

18 of 19 explained
- Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Cyclopentasiloxane silicone
- Cyclopentasiloxane is a volatile silicone: it spreads a formula thin and smooth then evaporates, leaving no residue. It is the silicone behind a dry, powdery primer finish.
- Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil emollient
- Coconut Oil is high in lauric acid, which makes it a rich emollient and partial occlusive. It is well known to be poorly suited to blemish-prone skin.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Hexylene Glycol solvent
- Hexylene Glycol is a solvent and light humectant. It keeps ingredients that resist water in solution and thins a formula so it spreads evenly.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Sodium Chloride thickener
- Sodium Chloride is salt. In a cleanser it thickens the liquid; in a mask or essence it balances the mineral content of the water phase. It has no active role.
- Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside surfactant
- Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is a sugar-derived cleansing surfactant. It foams modestly and is mild enough for low-pH cleansers built for reactive skin.
- Coco-Caprylate/Caprate emollient
- Coco-Caprylate/Caprate is a coconut-derived ester used as a light, dry emollient in place of silicone. It spreads far and leaves a soft finish.
- Dipotassium Phosphate pH adjuster
- Dipotassium Phosphate is a buffer salt. Paired with its more acidic partner it holds a formula at a steady pH.
- Disodium EDTA chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
6 more explained
- Potassium Phosphate pH adjuster
- Potassium Phosphate is a buffer salt used to hold a formula at the pH its actives need.
- Pyrus Malus (Apple) Seed Oil (40Ppm) emollient
- Apple seed oil, pressed from the pips. It is a light oil high in linoleic acid.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride emollient
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is the light fraction of coconut oil, with the heavy parts removed. It is the workhorse emollient of modern formulas: it softens skin, dissolves oil-soluble actives and absorbs without the greasy weight of a whole plant oil.
- Malus Domestica Fruit Extract (20Ppm) plant extract
- Apple fruit extract, carrying malic acid, sugars and polyphenols. It is used as a conditioning extract and a mild source of fruit acid.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- Tocopherol antioxidant
- Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer.

How to use
- Use the Apple Seed Lip & Eye Makeup Remover before you cleanse in the evening, on eye and lip makeup only, while the face is still dry.
- Soak a cotton pad, hold it flat against closed eyes or over the lips for about twenty seconds so the makeup lifts on its own, then draw it away in one direction.
- It comes before the cleanse, not instead of it. Follow with your usual first cleanse over the whole face and then the second, so nothing it loosened is left sitting on the skin.
- On the evenings you have worn eye or lip makeup, and only those. Do not spread it over the whole face; it is built for the two areas a face cleanser is not meant to go, and the rest of the face is the cleanser's job.
Worth knowing
- Hold the soaked pad against closed eyes for a few seconds before wiping, rather than rubbing immediately, to loosen stubborn makeup gently.
- Follow it with a regular cleanser for the rest of the face rather than using it as a full-face cleanse.
