  1. Thos does work really well and is so much cheaper than store bought.. Thank you!
     
  2. Great! I'm so happy to have found this, since I loathe paying big bucks for premade removers in the store. I used a store-brand baby shampoo and have no problems with any burning in my eyes. It removes the make-up quickly and easily. I've told many people about this!
     
  3. A warning about Johnson's Baby Shampoo... I don't know if it is still true, but back in the 1980's to early 1990's this Shampoo was the most Caustic shampoos on the market. (Caustic: Capable of burning, corroding, dissolving, or eating away by chemical action.) This shampoo is/was known as gentle, but to make it "no more tears" it contains/contained the main dirivative of Novacaine in the ingredients. Buyer Beware!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a school psychologist and enjoy cooking, traveling, dancing, sports and music. Recently, I have remarried and moved to New Jersey. Like many of the mothers on Recipezaar, I have two precious boys, a 7-year-old and I have just given birth to my second son. I love to try all kinds of food, particularly from other countries, because for that nationality, that food is the most delicious for them. After moving to New Jersey, I have had the wonderful opportunity to try food from all over the world, especially authentic Italian-yummy! Cooking is one of the most wonderful things that a person can do. My son loves to mix and help in the kitchen; it brings everyone joy when he is creating his masterpiece.
