You may need to do it a couple times to fully remove everything.

QuestionShould I still use an eye makeup remover to take off clear mascara gel?Community AnswerIt's up to you. Since it's clear it won't really matter much and most likely it will come off on its own. However, it is good to remove all makeup from your face before you sleep.

QuestionWhat if I am in the shower?Community AnswerUnless you are taking an ice cold shower, the makeup is going to react to the heat. This means that the makeup will melt off your face, including the mascara. I would say that you should definitely use some type of face wash if you keep one in the shower. Don't use body wash, because the skin on your face is sensitive, and you could potentially get it in your eyes.
