what youre waiting for, you seem to know the products better than their staff Hahaha! On my job application, I'll attach a link to this thread. They'll be totally impressed 
Now that I think of it, I would seriously consider a job at MB. They're headquartered in NYC and I'm moving there in half a year...

I was thinking of getting a full size of the hyaluronic eye cream after I got a sample awhile ago but I was also considering trying out others.
I got some samples too, including the Acne Facial cleanser 
Thank you very much
I'm searching for a good eye cream, so I guess I'll start with Hyaluronic Eye Cream!
^edit: found one myself
just ordered the drying lotion + cream, excited to see how/whether theyll work on my skin. unfortunately, the shop didnt have the healing mask or any of the products you recommended michyed but i might get if from ebay if the other two work well.
so thanks for all the advice, ill keep you updated how it works on me !

^Congrats! I've personally never tried the drying lotion + cream, but I recommended them through the good reviews. I really do hope they work out well for you, I'd feel bad if they didn't! It's a pity you didn't get to order from the MB store, because if you did you could get some free samples... and I'm a sucker for samples 
Honestly, their eye cream samples will last you forever... I think you could order some other full sized products and just choose eye creams for your free samples.
^Oh no! I have to warn you, I really dislike the Cleansing Milk with Carnation & Rice Oil! It isn't water soluble, so you have to wipe it off your face... Then there is a layer of the product that stays on your face which gets me really skeptical about whether it really removed the gunk on my face at all. I think it just locks dirt on your face, really. It barely removes any eye makeup. The good reviews for this product on MUA seem to be written by people who are very misinformed... If you can cancel your order, do it now! Replace the Cleansing Milk with the Glycolic Foaming Cleanser!!!

Ah nooo, yeah I chose it because it had really good reviews on MUA... ordered from HQhair yesterday and have already got dispatched email.
I have dry skin, but I want it to actually clean my make up off! So if it does that, then I'm most definitely going to change it for the glycolic one. I knew I should have read this thread first!

^I used the cleansing milk today, just to give you another review! I wore a normal amount of makeup today - powder, waterproof mascara, eyeshadow, eyeliner. No foundation though.
I applied massaged a generous amount of the cleansing milk onto my face and then wiped it off with a cotton pad. It got rid of most of the powder, eyeshadow and eyeliner. The mascara took forever to remove though... Eventually I gave up and switched to my Shu Uemura oil cleanser to remove it. I'd avoid using the cleansing milk on the eye area if you don't want wrinkles around your eyes. All that stretching of the skin with the cotton pad will really encourage wrinkles to form.
I would highly recommend an oil cleanser as a makeup remover (especially the Shu Uemura ones!). They glide on very smoothly, and all you have to do is gently massage the oil over your face and eye area. No cotton pads or harsh stretching of the skin involved! It removes every trace of makeup - including waterproof!

^but doesnt it leave the area greasy ?
I use skin oil to wash my face at night as well, but wash it off with water afterwards... I think it was the Lancome eye-make up remover (light blue bottle) I tried once and it left my skin all oily

^No! Not at all. The Shu Uemura cleanser is formulated to produce a minor lather after you wet it with water. That lather will remove every trace of grease and oil from your face afterwards. Same with the Dermalogica Precleanse. I don't know about other cleansers from other brands though, but I've never trusted brands like Lancome with skincare...
