Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

After seeing all the hype, I went out and purchased a travel-sized version of this. It does clean the face well and is light (just like water) and effective. However, I have to use cotton pads with this and I just feel that there's a lot of waste but I have not much other choice. I would probably stick with my Cetaphil cleanser but this does do the trick. Would recommend.

I received a cute little travel size of this in a Black Box recently - and was naturally very excited about that!

I've tried a few micellar waters before and I found this one ticked all the boxes, easily and gently cleansing my sensitive, combination skin. It removed both my BB cream and my mascara easily, without harsh scrubbing. Afterwards I didn't feel the need to wash it off, as my skin didn't feel sticky or irritated. The travel size was great, as I spend a night away for work every fortnight and I ALWAYS forget eye makeup remover, so this way I can just have an all-in-one product.

The only reason I dropped the star rating on this product is because it didn't say it was cruelty free and I prefer my products not tested on animals.

It does what it sets out to do. However, I always need to clean my face with a cleanser afterwards and I find I still have a lot of makeup left on my face.

I normally wear heavy makeup on the daily especially on my eyes and this does the job on taking them off without irritating my skin.

Perfect for removing eye makeup! Does a great job at removing mascara and eyeliner. Although I have been told it isn’t good for your skin! So I only use this to remove my eye makeup.

I haven’t noticed anything terrible happening though!

I always keep at least 3 bottles of this at a time in my skincare drawer. Although I do love trying new makeup removers all the time, I know this is my OG micellar water, also very easy to fill small travel bottles to take on the go or when I go on trips. Doesn't break my oily skin out and my first step before double cleansing and my skincare routine in the evening. Does a fab job at quickly taking off my stubborn makeup.

This does what it says it will however I much prefer a more luxurious experience with all of my skincare so I have since upgraded to something different. However when I was using this product it removed my makeup well and didn’t leave any residue on my face. Not a product I’d rave about but it gets the job done at an affordable price !

I've been using this for the past two months nightly to remove my makeup. I soak a cotton pad and apply to my face. It removes all makeup including mascara and foundation.

When I have a full face of makeup, I find that I need to use more than one cotton pad with the cleansing water, until the cotton pad remains clear.

I like the way it makes my skin feel afterwards, it is not slightly greasy. It makes my skin feel really clean, and ready to be toned and moisturised.

This product has saved me a lot of time and effort in my nightly routine, and will continue to purchase this product.
