Amazing Water

Yes yes this product does do what it says. It cleanses and removes makeup. I usually clean my face in the shower with cleansing cream or just water. After I did this, I applied Garnier Micellar with a cotton wool ball. It was amazing the amount of makeup, dirt and foundation I had missed. The cotton ball was very brown afterwards. Because it feels and looks like regular water, it is tempting to use lots and I doubt it would last for 200 uses. If you don't use enough liquid, it doesn't work as well. It is reasonably priced and I think it would appeal to younger people. More mature ones would feel like they needed more than water to clean their faces. All said, I'm not sure it will be too successful. You feel as if you are paying $12.99 for just water. Sounds odd, but if it was colored, you would feel it was better value for money ie more ingredients. I can't believe how efficient this product was. I would certainly recommend it to friends and family. My skin feels great. Bravo Garnier for bringing out a new product, fresh and original that works. Why do I feel like lotion does a better job? I think it's all in the mind and it will take some convincing to change the mind of the masses.

Finally!

I was a bit iffy about using this product. Only because as i opened the lid there was no smell nothing. Most clensers and make up removers have that strong smell and you think yup this will work! I applied it to a cotton pad and proceeded to take my days make up off and wow, it did its job! My skin is soft and make up is removed with little effort and no scrubbing at all. Im definately going to continue using it as again, its sooooo easy and hassle free and one product not 3!

Better than makeup wipes

OMG I was so excited to be a part of this trial team as I have seen this product rated by many beauty gurus!!!.

This product is definitely a must as it is really light weight and non greasy. I love the way it makes my skin feel fresh and not tight- considering I have sensitive skin, which makes it perfect for sensitive skin users, like the product suggests.

I tested the micellar water by removing my very black, stubborn mascara (which usually runs all over my face when I try to wash it off) this product removed it effortlessly with two wipes- i used cotton balls.

I then removed my lipstick and it left my lips feeling soft with little effort.

This product is awesome for me as a makeup remover. Although I don't wear a full face of makeup daily, (I stick to lipstick and mascara for my everyday routine.) The Micellar water removes these beauty products with ease. I will for sure be adding the product to my beauty regime. I feel it better suits my skin than harsh makeup wipes. For the quantity and price it is recommendable :)

Tips: next time I am going to try cotton pads, I felt like the cotton balls were not as effiicent as it could be.

works better than I expected it to

I have to admit I'm quite surprised that this works as well as it does! I did as it directs and soaked a bit onto a cotton pad and applied to my face. It definitely removes make up, including eye make up; however I did have to use about 5 pads to do so though that's not really surprising. I also gave it a go in the morning before applying the daily face and was a bit surprised at the dirt that was coming off. I do still feel like I need a cleanse after using it still as I don't feel entirely clean from it alone. My skin doesn't feel dry after using it like it promised. I love it for a quick make up removal when I can't be bothered with a full face wash. The bottle is great to use and a great size. There's no smell to the actual liquid but I did find that once it dries there's a strange sort of musty smell which I really cannot stand, but then I have K9 smell...so it could just be me...

Tips: Don't get it in your eyes!! It stings! For ages!

Garnier's Cleansing Water

My first reaction was the generous size of this product, and its RRP. The sparkling "water" look was slightly bewildering and I wondered if some slight colour may be a good idea since a small child could take this for a bottle of drinking water. The enclosed advertising for the product is excellent, every aspect clearly explained an d displayed and all Q&As; possible are answered. The cleansing water does what it says - removes make-up, cleanses and soothes. My skin felt refreshed and clear, with an "alive" glow. I found that it was unusual not to "wash off" after cleansing, but of course this is a toner/cleanser combined. Make-up applied afterwards was unaffected, but I wondered whether to use night cream or otherwise. Yes, a great innovation, economical and effective product, I hope Garnier bring out smaller sizes for portability as so many users are people on the move.

Tips: Keep well out of the way of children and possibly beware with sensitive skins as I sensed very slight eye sting.

Great make up remover!!

This product was fantastic for removing make up. I didn't find it did much as a cleanser. Highly recommended for properly cleaning your face, especially after a night out with heavy eye make! It also didn't evaporate on the cotton pads which some eye make removers tend to do.

Tips: It is great for removing Mac lipstick which really stains your lips. I often end up with a tinged lips and really have to scrub them. This product wipes it off easily!

Micellar cleansing water

I was not convinced when I received this product that it was actually going to do what it said it was, but after a few days of using it I will be sticking with it and ditching my old cleanser! Like the bottle says you don't need to scrub to get your make up off, and it left my face feeling really refreshed and clean without leaving it dry! My skin is pretty sensitive and it didn't do anything to aggregate this either :)

I hadn't heard of this product before so I'm super stoked I got to trial this and find out about it

Tips: - make sure you thoroughly soak the cotton pad - when using on eye make up hold the soaked pad on you eye for a few seconds and then swipe off for best results

Gentle make up remover

A big container (perhaps too big?) with easy open flip top. I like that the liquid is clear with no added colouring. I find it to be a gentle product which does not sting my eyes. It removes most makeup easily but has a hard time removing waterproof mascara. I prefer the consistency to an oil based product and would use again.

Not converted

Was lucky enough to go on holiday and grab some of this, its been over there a while but was a little difficult to find guess as there is still some hype over there.

Yes it's very effective at cleansing for a water like product with miminal ingredients I just feel it still leaves traces of make up and grime my usual cleanser doesnt ( 10 0 6 gentle daily cleaner).

It was always going to be an impossible task to get me off the gentle version of the 10 0 6 I have to admitt. But it would definitely come second.

What I do like is the massive bottle and price you can use as much as required without worrying about your wallet. Also the smell and feel if you didn't know you would think its water.

Well done Garnier its a fabulous product I just have a more effective aha product that suits me a little better.

In a word, WOW

I have been anticipating the arrival of this baby for like my entire life. It's a pink bottle, it cleansers, everyone talks about it and I need it. Praise the lord I got invited into this trial team and I'm tellin' ya, it made my week.

First things first - it's the realest, realest. Seriously though this stuff is boss. It does absolutely everything it says it will. It 100% cleanses, removes makeup and soothes. YOU DON"T HAVE TO RUB. It's amazing. I've never tried something that cleanses so well.

I used makeup remover pads from Kmart ($3 for 200) and put a bit of the water on them then pulled the pad across my face gently and looked at it and my face had been transferred to the pad. I don't know how it does it but it literally takes off every aspect of your makeup. It feels so nice and cool on the skin. It doesn't sting my eyes at all ever. Which is pretty profound for a cleanser as I find most of them do sting my wee eyes. It looks as though it'll last a decent amount of time (maybe a few weeks depending on the amount of makeup you wear). It's cheap though so that doesn't matter - and I'm so pleased it's going to be sold at Countdown!

Overall, buy this stuff. If you've struggled finding a good cleanser then buy this stuff. If you've heard every man and his dog talking about it, buy this stuff. If you wear makeup, buy this stuff. If you have a face, buy this stuff. Just buy this stuff. Please. You won't regret it. xoxo

Tips: I wear a full face each day and I do go through about 5-6 makeup pads to take off my whole face with this. I'd suggest buying cheapie makeup remover pads because it's this product that's doing the job, not so much the pad so don't bother splashing out on them. Kmart, $3 for 200.
