Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

I thought I would try out Garnier micellar water as there has been lots of hype about it. It comes in a big 400ml bottle, so you’re getting lots of product for how much you pay. I use this micellar water with cotton pads to remove my make-up. It removes all my make-up really well. I usually wash my face after using this product as it leaves my skin feeling sticky. Overall this product is really good and leaves your skin feeling very clean, I would highly recommend.

Now I had seen a lot of hype around these micellar waters. And honestly - as someone who is a traditional wash and scrub girl I was pretty skeptical. Usually on days I wear makeup (which isn't all that often) I would use a make up wipe or two to remove what I had worn that day/night and then be done with it.

So when I ran out of my trusty wipes and came across this in the supermarket I figured why not.

Now on a note, something that really drew me in was the price point. Usually I pay anywhere between 7-15 dollars for each pack of facial wipes. This bottle cost me $9 and promises 200 uses..who was I to say no to that?!

My method is that I will soak two cotton pads. Use the first one for an all over wipe down and the second to get any grime I missed.

While it doesn't take off any heavy duty mascara it does a pretty good job of getting my face clean. It feels fresh, light and doesn't dry it out too bad. Although I still follow up with a moisturizer.

I jumped in and tried this, and yes it does remove my makeup somewhat easily but I'm not completely convinced I would replace it for my normal cleanser. After using this to remove all my makeup I still need to cleanse with my normal cream cleanser afterwards to make sure I have completely removed all the oils off my skin. I think this is a good product for removing soft and small amounts of makeup but if you wear a lot of makeup on a regular basis I would still recommend following it with a cleanser afterwards. I have to moisturize afterwards as I have super dry skin and find this feels rather drying afterwards. I do like using this product if I am using an oil to remove my eye makeup tho, I put a tiny bit on a cotton pad and it removes any left behind makeup removing oil oil off my lids and stops my eyes feeling heavy.

At the moment I'm going through treatment for acne and sensitive skin but I'm not ready to give up wearing make up during the weekend. I love Neutrogena night calming make up removal pads; a few weeks ago I desperately needed some but they ran out at the supermarket. I purchased Garnier Micellar water instead. I love it. It does what it says and doesn't irritate my skin. I now use both products on different days. It's very difficult to find a suitable make up removing product but this one seems to be very good so far.

I rarely wear make up. We are talking once in a blue moon here. Mum and I were shopping in countdown and my mum got this micellar cleansing water for me as I had been wanting to buy it for ages! I have gotten it purely for removing dirt and everything else from my face as stated above I don't tend to wear makeup all too often.

This might sound funny but I did a full face of foundation the other day just to see if the micellar water would remove it and it sure did, like a breeze! I do have to say though the cotton pad got pretty dirty real quick with no extra hard rubbing or anything required! It didn't sting my face or anything which is a big plus.

I have recently broken out so much on my chin because of Aunt Flow being on the horizon. It is not a fun time having all these pimples. There was a funny feeling when I applied my micellar water to my chin area but I think this was only because the pimples were very active and open. Other than that the micellar water removed gunk from my face that had gathered over the course of the day. Even though it says you don't have to rinse it off, I like to do so anyway.

All in all the micellar cleansing water is a must have. It is super easy to use and it had pretty awesome results. I would recommend to anybody that is umming and ahhing over whether to purchase this product or not. :)

I was a bit skeptical using this as I heard really mixed reviews but I really wanted to try it so I picked it up anyway.

It comes in a big clear bottle with a pink flip top lid. Its a big sized product claiming that its got 200 uses probably is about right.

This has no smell and has an easy flow to get product out although I did find it came out a bit too quick if I wasnt paying attention and would totally sog a cotton pad or ball.

I used this to remove all sorts of different foundations from my Estee Lauder doublewear, Kat Von D Lock it and various mineral foundations it removed all of them and easily. it didnt require a whole lot of rubbing or going over I was really pleasantly surprised by this. It did take a little bit more elbow grease to remove my waterproof mascara but I was ok with that.

It didnt give me any irritation and it left my skin feeling surprisingly soft and hydrated and clean.

I will definately be buying this again. Pleased I changed my mind and tried it anyway

Such an easy way to remove my makeup last thing at night. I just soak a couple of cotton pads in micellar water and whisk them all over my face and neck. Every trace of makeup is gone and my skin feels clean and toned, not stripped. I can massage my night cream onto my skin right away, no rinsing or drying.

I haven't found it to be very effective at removing my eye-makeup, but waterproof mascara is a trial for most cleansers. I do find it stings like crazy if I get it in my eye by accident too.

Easily available with my weekly shop, I am halfway through one bottle after two months so I think it is great value for money. In comparison with another micellar water I have tried (Simple) I think the Garnier product is superior.

Definitely a handy item to have for someone who wears makeup daily and sometimes don't have enough time to freshen up (ie shower/wash face) before i have to be at either a school related event or at one my little girl's extracurricular events... so i rely on make up removers for a quick cleanup before re-applying makeup! real bad i know but it makes a huge difference rather than caking on more makeup on a 'stale' face! this product is a real gem - works well without any real harsh rubbing and it doesn't dry my face out either... no greasy residue either (which I've found with some makeup removal cloths). definitely recommend.

This worked wonders for me and left my skin feeling better than ever! I honestly love it and so do all my friends :) highly recommend
