Off your person, I mean. No idea about getting it off of clothing. I always manage to get a little bit of gear oil on my legs, somehow.
Eye makeup remover! I use the L'Oreal liquid although I imagine others would work too.

I use wet ones. Scrubbing with regular soap (not "beauty wash") works too but takes longer.

I use either my face wash (Target knock-off of Neutrogena), or put a bit of cheap hand lotion on it and scrape it off gently using an old gift card or something similar.
At least I don't leave slime trails.

Real soap. I make my own. Detergent "soap" just doesn't cut it.
