Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

My mum actually bought this back from Sydney for me to try (she got me 3 bottles!) so I was super excited to try it out. It left my face feeling clean and refreshed, it doesn't have a scent which is good too. The only bad thing I would say is that I feel I used a LOT of cotton pads to take off my makeup. I'm not sure if it was because of the quality of the pads or not, but that was the only bad thing I have to say.

Generally, I use a separate make up remover to remove my eye make up. But over the weekend, while I was travelling, this was put to the test. And it passed.

I used to take off my eye make up, use a make up wipe for my face, cleanse my face with Cetaphil and then while I was toning, my cotton ball would come away with make up on it. I didn't care at the time, because hey, at least the toner was taking my make up off.

Now it's a whole new story. I use these big cotton rounds from KMart for both my eye make up remover and this Micellar Water (or just the water). One side of the pad for each eye, then both sides of the pad to do my whole face. Once I get to toning time, THERE IS NO MAKE UP ON MY FACE. NONE. At all. Once my Neutrogena eye make up remover runs out I think I'll just be using this for everything, because with that I'd sometimes still have panda eyes the next day, with this, I didn't. I love this stuff, at first I thought it was expensive, but I think this bottle will last me a really really long time. I love it! I really do.

I absolutely love this on the face as it takes away all my makeup and even I f I go in with a makeup wipe later, there will be nothing left. I use around 10 drops on each cotton pad and I use either 2 or 3 cotton pads and that gets rid of all my face makeup. However I wear water proof mascara almost every day and this definitely does not do the job, which I'm not complaining as it does not say that it will. However if you are expecting this to take of water proof makeup, you will be disappointed. I love the packaging of this as it reminds me of their 2 in 1 face and eyes makeup remover which I loved dearly. This price is also good as countdown recently had a deal and it was only $9!

This is a great cleanser as well as make up remover for my sensitive skin. My now go to product and I will never give it up! I love that it doesn't make your skin feel oily or slimy afterwards. Soothes my skin after a long day without too much rubbing or scrubbing

To be honest, I was sceptical of this product at first. However once I used it I was converted! It is a great cleanser for when you are on the go, great for those who travel. It's also a fantastic brush cleaner and restored my brushes to almost new!

Really affordable as well which is a bonus since you will be using it all the time!

Been using this product for a week. It does what it says it does. My skin is fresh and clean of make up every time. I am prone to bad breakouts, and have noticed some girls have mentioned breaking out after using the product. So far, so good for me. But I have only been using it a week now.

I love the feeling though, of not having to scrub. I use Double Wear as my foundation and we all know how hard it is to get that stuff off. The Micellar water has had no issues with removing it and I don't feel red raw after like I would when scrubbing with a face cloth. I am very happy, and the big bottle will last a while!

I have been using micellar water religiously for a month and have nothing bad to say about it. It took me a while to get my mitts on some but i was not disapointed, firstly the price is fantastic! $12 for 2oo uses (give or take i use a bit much so it lasts me maybe half that) secondly- you use with a cotton pad! boy do i not miss the 1000 facecloths each week i had to wash (slight exaggeration maybe but it sure felt like it)

now down to the real reason why micellar water is the new love of my life

-It has helped my acne better than any other product by far! Because my face is so clean afterwards that my skin breathes and my pores arent blocked and Oh i just love the clean feel I have afterwards

-No residue or need to wash off -Now i have a 12 week old baby and a 3 year old so if you have children you also know that it is hard to keep up a proper cleansing routine with two kidlets to attend to. So in the 5 mins I get to brush my teeth etc before bed i can easily wet my cotton pad with it wipe wipe and done... PHEW painless and so fast

-All my makeup comes off, eyeshadow, mascara, eyeliner *ahem eyebrows everything... All with the one product... How wonderful no fussing around with multiples...

I'm not one to use this in amongst other products for my routine because I simply haven't got time and the amazing thing is that this works amazingly on its own. I think It likes being an only child in fact. And my face is happy too...!

I love this product! washing my face over the sink is never all that easy for me, my bathroom water takes the longest to heat up (i know FWP) i get water and cleanser running down the arms and a mess all round the bathroom, with a foundation stained sink! This is a nice routine in the morning to waken you up a bit, but at the end of the day not that great

This i keep with my makeup, i can sit down and remove my makeup, pop on a cotton pad, and done!

i dont think its as good as the original bioderma, (just a tiny tiny bit!) but being SO much cheaper, and much easier to get in NZ its my preference.

I can use it to remove eye makeup, but if i had anything heavy duty (shadow bases, creams or waterproof) i will have to get my oil based remover out.

i'm so thrilled there is a bio derma dupe so cheap and accessable!!

I have sensitive skin, i don't like putting new things my face but i knew i had to try the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. I am quite slack with taking my makeup off at the end of the day but this product made it easy! I use a couple of cotton pads and generously coated it then swiped away, with ease it took all my makeup off and didn't irritate my skin, its very gentle and you don't have to wash it off! it leaves a fresh feeling on my skin

I've tried a number of different makeup removers and found this one to work best for me. I have sensitive, acne prone skin and always find using new products tends to make my skin breakout. This wasn't the case when trying the micellar cleansing water. To be honest, after watching/reading heaps of reviews raving about this product, I was quite eager to give it a go. I wasn't let down either, it really is great at removing all my eye makeup and lipstick which I usually have the hardest time with when using other products. I also like that the scent is mild and that when removing my lip products, it doesn't taste like I've swallowed a bar of soap! It's really easy and gentle on your skin, I highly recommend you try it.

It's great for touching up any mistakes you make when doing winged eyeliner lol. The lid is the perfect size for wetting a cotton bud when you need to wipe off a little bit of stray eyeliner.

Definitely a good price point for the amount you get too, nice to know you don't have to spend an arm and a leg for things to be of good, decent quality!
