You love our longest-lasting products, but how do you take them off?! This nourishing formula will ensure that makeup removal doesn’t throw you into fits.

Sometimes you need a makeup remover that's as mighty as the most powerful products in your beauty arsenal, which is why we've created Meltdown! This stuff can take down our longest-lasting products, and it's also good for your skin, too.

Sea Fan Extract combats inflammation, while Beta Carotene (a source of Vitamin A) and Gatuline In-Tense (harvested from the South African Rain Forest Peekabo Plant) revitalize collagen production. Cranberry and Raspberry Seed Oils, along with Kukui Nut and Oat Oil, moisturize and replenish.

The 2.5 oz. squeeze tube is easy to use, as well as small enough to take on an airplane (after a long grueling flight, you'll be so glad you brought it with you).

Meltdown Makeup Remover 4.6 5 88 88
Love It~!! I love this stuff~! It has a nice, not overbearing scent. It's creamy so it doesn't run everywhere when your trying to apply it. And it works wonders on your makeup. Only downside is how small the bottle is for the price. Overall this product makes me a happy panda. July 7, 2012
It's like magic! Usually I've had to scrub my face nonstop with soap in order to take my eye makeup off. Sometimes I would have to take a break because my eyes would get so irritated. Good thing I found the Meltdown Makeup Remover! I thank the heavens above because there's no way this product was made by human hands! It doesn't just work on Urban Decay products, but every single brand I have! I just put a dot on my finger, rub it over my eyelids, and wipe away even the strongest eyeliner with a tissue. Super easy and quick, you'll be squeaky clean in less than a minute! If you wear tons of make-up, you NEED to own this! March 11, 2013
Easy Peasy I couldn't be happier with a makeup remover! Just a little dot, and a few swipes, and my 24/7 waterproof liners are gone. Normally I would be left to scrub vigorously to get my eye makeup off (particularly the new 24/7 liquid liner), but this is clearly made of tougher stuff while still managing to be extremely gentle. August 22, 2011
Great for the Sensitive! I love the Meltdown makeup remover!!! The first time I tried it i was in awe! I have VERY sensitive eyes and most makeup wipes give me bad allergic reactions or leave greasy films on my contact lenses. But this makeup remover is very gentle and a little dab with a q-tip goes a long way. Or I can bring this into my shower and incoorporate it into my shower routine. It makes my eyes feel fresh after use, not oily and gross. I am so happy i finally got my hands on this product! Its size is also TSA approved so I can take this anytime I travel. This is my liquid gold. Besides the eyeshadow primer, setting spray, and Naked bb cream, this is probably one of my greatest neccessities in my makeup bag! April 29, 2013
Strong but gentle I was hesitant to try this product because I thought it was so pricey, but curiosity finally took over. I think the price I justified in the end, because you need such a small amount - this tube will last forever. I only need a pea-sized amount to do both eyelids using a cotton ball. Although the formula is NOT oil-free, there is no greasy or oily residue leftover if you rinse your face with a few splashes of water after removing your eye makeup. I haven't tried it without rinsing it off although Urban Decay says rinsing is not required. I have not noticed any scent to this product while using it. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase. Works very well on 24/7 products - better than Clean and Sober. Would recommend to anyone and will purchase again, although I do find myself saving it for times when I have a lot of 24/7 products to remove! Haha. Another great Urban Decay release. :) July 27, 2011
Does what it says it will! I have experimented with a lot of makeup removers over the years...and I have to admit I don't always wash my face in the evenings, so it is important that I can remove all my makeup before my face hits the pillow. This not only removed all of it (and in basically one swipe, without having to scrub), but also left my face feeling soft and fresh. In some ways it felt better than washing my face! February 27, 2012
Greasy! I used the Clean and Sober remover for years and loved it. Was excited to try Meltdown when I saw it was replacing Clean and Sober. I have to say I am very disappointed. It works in that it does take off the most stubborn of make-up but it feels very greasy and takes a lot to get it off the skin. Please bring back Clean and Sober! February 29, 2012
Meltdown of disappointment I'm a HUGE UD fan and I was SO upset and disappointed by this. I tired to use it to remove my make up, and not only extremely messy, but it was greasy and then didn't even remove my make up! It was also harsh on my skin, made my skin red and irritated, especially around my eyes. Luckily, I had some UD Clean & Sober on hand and used that and some facewash, and FINALLY got all the Melt-Down goo and makeup off my face. Returned it real fast. August 23, 2011
PERFECT! This is a great makeup remover for the UD long-lasting products. It works easily on 24/7 pencil, and eyeshadow anchored by Primer Potion. It also easily melts away the new Cannonball mascara. I like that it is not oily, and doesn't get into my eyes. A great addition to your makeup bag, I promise! July 26, 2011
This was really disappointing. I really don't have a lot of money but there are some beauty products there are staples and I think you need good quality staples! Makeup remover, mascara and eyeliner are some of those things. I love Urban Decay makeup and usually buy it at the mall and never buy anything else but I do buy waterproof mascara that's not from here and this takes way too much to get it off! I love UD and I was SO DISAPPOINTED! I wish it worked and I trust it might with some products. I use another waterproof makeup remover and it works better than this and it's super cheap. I'm really, really sad about this. It is really nice and smooth and I like that it's like a cream, so it's not all negative. It's just that there are things that work just as well as this and I was expecting it to live up to its name. Maybe it works well with only UD makeup? I'm sad to be returning this. November 28, 2011
Actually works I have really bad eye allergies and most anything near my eyes sets off insane itching. This however, does not. It melts away makeup very well, even on my squirmy little sister who wont sit still for more than five minutes. It doesn't irritate my eyes and will work on even the products that brag about their longevity. The feel of it is quite relaxing. February 29, 2012
what happened to the mermaid? Ok, so I really really miss the mermaid stuff -- where did it go? Melt down is still an awesome product, takes off your UD like nothing else will and doesn't leave anything weird behind on your skin. Luckily I still have my last bottle (used all the product) of the mermaid eye make up remover "clean and sober" -- please bring it back!!! January 31, 2012
It's just ok; nothing too special about this. I have other products that work way better. This is just about good enough for removing light makeup. I don't feel it's powerful enough to remove waterproof and darker pigmented products. It didn't irritate my skin at all but, I don't feel that it's worth the price for the amount you get in the tube. January 31, 2012
the BEST!! I love it!!! s I was surprised to see that my eye shadow, mascara and even my eyeliner (which is always a huge hassle to take off–if I can get it off) looked like it literally melted off my eyes onto my face. In my opinion Meltdown Makeup Remover is the best makeup remover EVER!!!! April 18, 2012
The name says it all! I love this make up remover! I received this as a part of a gift from a friend and I have to say I love it! It is very gentle and doesn't break my face out! I do have to be careful around the eyes because it does irritate them in it gets in there but I do have very sensitive eyes. February 28, 2012
Great eye make-up remover This was not a whole-face make-up remover, but worked marvelously when needed to remove my 24/7 waterproof eyeliner as well as the very glittery and hard to remove eyeshadows, which I Iove as well. September 27, 2011
pretty good so i decided to give this makeup remover a try since i ran out of my fav makeup remover which was estee lauder take it away makeup remover. the thing i absolutely love about this remover is the lotion feel of it! it does feel like it's nourishing my face. the only problem is unless you have the time and patience to use this product then i wont recommend this for you. other than that it works pretty good. February 28, 2012
Great Make-up Remover It got all my make up off and I didn't have to worry about going in close to my eyes. I have very sensitive skin and it did not turn my face red. August 2, 2011
Take it off! Way before the existence of Meltdown, I was an avowed Clean & Sober girl and in a moment of being stubborn, initially refused to jump ship to Meltdown until it was either that or switch brands. Well, I'll admit it, I was wrong. Meltdown is FAB and really does take anything off. Long stay lipstick? Gone. Waterproof eye makeup? Gone. Harsh and heavy stage makeup? Gone. Not only does it clear away the tough stuff, but it also smells wonderful and is gentle on my sensitive skin. February 24, 2012
Works well. It's true that UD products are long lasting, so this does work well to remove them. February 11, 2012
Raccoon no more No more Raccoon eyes in the morning! need I say more? February 19, 2012
not my fav from ud this is not my fav from ud, i usually love their products, this does work, it just takes a lot of swipes, i keep apply and keep apply so it will take all the makeup of. i use the ud mascara and ud eyeshadow, so i was expecting it to do better. April 16, 2012
Makeup flies off! I found my holy grail makeup remover when I saw that it was on sale In the vintage packaging with the mermaid on it! I love that it calms my skin, it's gentle and It really does take off all my makeup! And an added bonus is that the bottle is huge! You get so much! February 28, 2012
ok but I've had better Not the best UD product. I find that it takes alot of this product to get my makeup off. I use all UD products so I expected the makeup remover to take off their own product. I also found I have to scrub alot to get makeup off. I use another makeup remover that liquid not lotiony like this one and takes off product in one swip. UD can do better. Plus over priced based on other removers. Only pro was non greasy. March 6, 2013
A tiny bit of scrubbing but feels good! So usually when i go to whipe of my eye makeup ( urban decays primer and naked palette) i have to wipe really hard to get it off and products usually hurt my skin. But with this i put a tiny bit on a tissue and gently with a tinyyyy bit of force wiped it away. I was amazed! i woudl def get this product even though there are some low reviews February 1, 2012
Works like a magic eraser! :) with just a little amount and a facial tissue paper and poof - make up gone!!! it doesn't irritate the eyes and skin.. my skin is kinda sensitive but I never had any allergic reaction to it.. it doesn't have a strong or nasty smell which is good.. the design on the bottle looks nice as well.. hope UD comes up with a travel size for this. :) February 17, 2012
Important tool in your makeup kit Makeup removal is as important as appliation of makeup because you should always take ALL makeup off the face before going to bed. Yes it is basics but unfortunatly not everybody do that. Beautiful skin is a key to beautiful makeup application! April 25, 2012
Best Makeup Remover To Date!! I love it! It's a lotion and I was so nervous with getting it in my eye but it doesn't matter, it's completely smooth and relaxing and it smells good. My skin isn't dry either. I'm used to the removers that are watery and dry your skin out and I hate those -- this is the best makeup remover ever and you don't have to use a lot of it. March 5, 2013
Best Makeup Remover On The Market! Seriously LOVE this makeup remover!! I have been trying and trying to find one that doesnt dry out my skin or actually HURT my skin while applying it.. Its so easy to use and I was worried about the price and the small amount but you DONT need a lot at all and it comes off with just a wipe. Def. recommend this to everyone! February 25, 2012
Perfect Makeup Remover This stuff really can take out the intense eye makeup urban decay products encourage you to pile on. And yet somehow it manages to leave my skin feeling smooth and soft and moisturizing. Absolutely he best makeup remover I have ever encountered. I'm never buying anything else to remove my makeup.

The Word
Pro Tips
Apply on tough spots and wipe off with a tissue (a tissue works best since it will grab more of what you want to remove). This creamy gel is non-greasy so you don’t have to wash off any residue after you use it, and the light fragrance is uplifting but never obtrusive.
