MAC wipes eye safe?

Are MAC wipes eye safe? I tried to look for it on the website, but it didn't say anything. The back of the package didn't say anything about it either. They usually sting my eyes so I don't want to keep using them if they aren't safe.

Its probably the scent in them. Thats why I stick to good old Johnsons baby wipes to take off my make up!

and at 16.50....i don't think i'll rebuy these. They are nice...but all I need is to take the makeup off, no frills.

The makeup wipes that Walmart makes-the Equate brand rock! You get like 120 of them for $5 I think.

Yeah the makeup wipes make my eyes go funny too, it's all fuzzy when I blink after using them.

so does this mean they are not eye safe?

I think they are, I use them to my eye makeup off. Try not to "rub" too hard, though because the soap will irritate your eyes. I just wipe my shadow off and then I gently brush my lashes with the wipe to get mascara off. If the wipes bother you that much, I'd get Gentle Off Makeup Remover, instead.

they are eye safe, so don't worry. they do make your eyes go blurry for a minute or so afterwards, but then it goes away. if you get too much in your eyes, it does burn just a bit. but its nothing that will stop me from using them. i LOVE them! been using em for years and will continue to do so.

LOL no wonder, I just thought my contacts were getting bad on me... haha. They seem to get blurry every time after I use them.

I use them, also, and have no problems with my eyes. Do you take your contacts out first? I can't imagine using them with my contacts still in my eyes; being eye safe doesn't make them contact-friendly.

I always resisted buying MAC Wipes because I just couldn’t bring myself to pay $20 per pack(not really sure of the price).
