Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

When I read all the hype surrounding this product I guess I was expecting a miracle. My expectations were pretty high. I soaked a cotton pad with Micellar water and wiped it across my made up face. When I looked at the pad after wiping I expected to see a lot of my makeup there, however there was only the faintest residue of it. I wiped again, this time quite firmly, still very little came away. The next day I decided to experiment. On half my face I used Micellar water and on the other half, tap water. After wiping, the two pads looked identical. In short, this doesn't seem to offer me anything that good old tap water doesn't already offer in abundance.

I have been waiting to get my hands on this product and finally I have and I was not disappointed! It made my skin feel amazing and not only that it took off all my makeup at the end of the day including my waterproof masacra. All I can say is that this is AMAZING!! I have been using this product for around a week and have found my skin felt more hydrated and smooth and actually does what it says it will do. I would recommend this to anyone who has sensitve skin like myself as this is gentle on your skin. It is also a generous sized bottle which is a plus!!

Garnier's Micellar Cleansing Water does exactly as it says on the bottle. It took all of my make up off and made my skin feel clean and refreshed after use. It comes in a huge 400ml bottle, which will last as you only need a small amount on each cotton pad to cleanse your skin. A plus for me was that it didn't make my skin bright red like cleansers I have previously used. This product is great for lazy people (like me) as it is incredibly quick and easy to use.

I LOVE Garnier Micellar cleaning water. Its so easy to use and left my skin feeling fresh and clean! Super gentle on your skin and is okay to use if you have sensitive skin. When I saw the bottle/packaging, I thought it was great size. Nice and easy to open and the lid clips down well so no need to worry about spills if it fell over. The product itself, works really well. Even tried it while I had no make up on to see how it would leave my skin feeling. I love how it feels kinda silky when putting it on. Less is more. My mother in law tried it once and she loved it. Loved how it left her skin feeling. I've already recommended this product to several people who are very excited to give it a try. Totally vaule for money, Defently will be buying more once I have run out.

As a mum I don't have a lot of time to wash my face in the mornings and evenings I trialed this product and it has worked perfectly for me it is so easy to use just need to apply it with a cotton wipe rub on then your done you feel refreshed and takes away the dirt of the day great price and and great size bottle

This is a new step in natural technology performance for cleansers, there is no need for water to rinse or cleanse, so it's perfect for woman on the go or on holiday. It's simple to use just dab it on your face with a cotton bud or soft cloth and voila....No water needed. It didn't cause any irritation to my sensitive skin and I like the natural philosophy and also the large bottle which is definitely value for money

I love this product, is good value for money at RRP: $12.99 and a good size 400 ml , would last ..

My skin feel fresh ,clean and smooth

Rinsing is not needed

is not oily

Does not have any strong smells

Dermatologically tested

would removed your make up nicely , use a cotton pad .

Highly recommend it

200 uses , plenty there .

Pros: It comes in a great sized bottle for the price of it. Has an easy click open and closed lid with a small opening which makes it easy to get the product out without spilling it everywhere. When applied, it didn't sting my face and did seem quite soothing.

Cons: I found I went through a good 10 cotton pads to remove my light makeup. It swirled my foundation around my face and even after the cotton pads were clean I still felt like I needed to wash my face. It also has a weird smell to it like a damp, moldy cleaning rag which put me off. I have had a slight breakout around my hairline so i'm only guessing its because of the product mixed with foundation not being removed thoroughly enough.

Overall, I really did want to love this product and was beyond excited to try it however, it didn't live up to its hype and didn't "wow" me. I find it much easier and thorough using my normal cleanser. I will continue to finish this product using it as a spot cleanser for my makeup brushes. I wont be purchasing it again.

I LOVE Garnier Micellar cleaning water, where has it been all my life? It's so simply and straight forward to use and it's super gentle on your skin.

The first time I saw the bottle/packaging I did think it was very plain jane and boring but since using the product I have realised that the packaging is exactly like the product simple but oh so effective! The lid clips on snuggly and I have no concerns about it tipping over and spilling once the lid is closed, also the flip lid means you don't have to muck around screwing & unscrewing making the whole process much easier.

The product itself, well there's not a lot to say about it in terms of look or smell - it looks like water and there is no real smell that I have noticed either. Now this product claims to be amazing, removing make-up, cleansing and leaving your skin soothed. I wanted to believe the claims but to be honest I was a little skeptical, I mean sometimes even eye make-up remover has a hard time doing its job right? How could one product do multiple jobs AND do them well? The first night I was amazed (and slightly grossed out at the manly looking cotton pads!) at how effective a job the Micellar cleansing water did. It left my skin feeling wonderful and completely make-up free, plus it to got rid of my eye make-up without me having to rub or scrub the area. I did wonder if it was simply a fluke, if my make-up had been lighter or worn off more that day so I kept using it and after about a week of using it every night and most mornings I still feel the same - totally loving this product and the fact that it does what it says it will. My skin feels better than it has for a long time and I haven't had a breakout from my make-up since using this product (I was prone to getting them before). I am a contact lens wearer and am always a little cautious of the products I use on or around my eyes in case they cause irritation, so far the Micellar cleansing water hasn't caused any kind of irritation to my eyes. I can't wait for this product to be released in shops and think that the price is very reasonable, in fact I was expecting it to be more expensive than it is listed above. I've already recommended this product to several people who are very excited to give it a try.

I will admit that I don't have a "nighttime skincare routine" because I'm too lazy for it. I have, however, been pretty good about at least taking my makeup off in the evening and slapping on some moisturiser - but although my makeup remover was good, it annoyed me that I had to rinse it off. Yes, I really am that lazy. I was thrilled to try the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water because it doesn't need rinsing off - and I found it definitely lives up to the hype. It is like no other makeup remover that I have tried. Although it does not contain perfumes has a subtle, pleasant scent. It feels light and watery on the skin but it effectively removes my eye makeup (I don't tend to wear foundation), including stubborn mascara. It leaves the skin around my eyes feeling fresh and clean, rather than laden with residue. I am able to dab on some eye cream and let that sink in, without having makeup remover in the way, or having to rinse my skin first. It doesn't irritate or hurt my eyes, even when I got a bit into one eye. It is a fantastic product that I will definitely buy when this bottle runs out - which will take forever as it's a generous size and you only use a small bit each time. Definitely worth the reasonable price!
