Garnier Micellar Water In Oil Review

I find the only.makes the water work just that much harder at removing makeup. I really like the added oil for more moisture too. Excellent and lasts FORVER. A great product I'll use again.

Thoroughly removes all make up. Gentle on the skin. And also really hydrating. My skin is very dry, and sensitive, and this really soothes.

Such a great micellar water to remove eye makeup, especially mascara or high pigmentation shadows, I even loved using it to remove matte lipsticks. This didn’t make me feel dry after using it either. I’m really happy with this micellar water and I will continue to repurchase!

This is my favourite of the Garnier micellar waters, I am now on my third bottle. It really does remove my Estee lauder double wear makeup quite easily and although it doesn't completely remove my waterproof mascara. It makes my skin feel clean and fresh but not dry.. It smells nice and fresh too, I don't think the fragrance is too strong. I've tried several other Garnier micellar waters but this is by far the best.

I was a bit skeptical as you can see the oil in the water, but I have to admit it works so well, especially for removing eye makeup! I’ve been using it at night before bed, and it definitely removes any remaining product well. It also made my skin feel smooth and hydrated!

I very nearly didn't accept this trial as my experiences with micellar water in the past have seen me with stinging eyes after use. However the oil element swayed me as I do like an oil cleanse.

The package is simple - plastic, large, not fancy, but pleasant to look at. The oil sits on top and you have to shake the bottle before use.

As directed I applied the micellar to a cotton pad and then wiped it across my face/eyes/lips as a first cleanse. It worked wonderfully well - and it didn't sting my eyes, which immediately makes it a winner for me. After use I second cleansed with a cream cleanser and my skin felt great - clean, but not dry.

I did try using this by itself and while it still did a great job as before, I wasn't fond of the tacky feeling that was left post cleanse (it says you don't have to rinse it off). While my skin felt hydrated and didn't break out, it 's too much of an uncomfortable feeling for me to get past, so I've marked it down on that. Not a big deal though as I wouldn't usually use this by itself anyway. And if I took it travelling as my only cleanser I'd rinse with water post-use, which would take care of the tacky issue.

All in all I am sold on this product. Will absolutely purchase in the future. I've been converted.

At first I was very concerned about the oil, I have oily skin already so I didn't want something that would leave my skin greasy and heavy feeling. I shook This is a great makeup removing micellar. I don't mind the smell, and at no stage did it irritate my sensitive skin or eyes. It is perfect for removing makeup including eye makeup - and I usually wear long wear foundation dusted over with powder and waterproof mascara. While the residue it leaves isn't what I'd call greasy, a residue very much remains, and it is not one I would be comfortable leaving it on my skin. However, for me a micellar is only ever a one-of-two step of cleansing and I follow with a face wash, so this certainly isn't a deal breaker for me. (I just don't, particularly like they mentioned "no residue" as I'm betting it will annoy anyone who buys it thinking that.) I find it less stripping than some normal micellar, better around the eyes than most and doesn't sting, and also don't have to rub very much, all of which means it suits my sensitivities very well. I'll definitely be re-purchasing this, especially when it's such good value and only the price of my current eye makeup remover.

I never have smelt something so good! It reminds me of the delish smell of baby products, if you have had a baby you know what i mean if you haven't your missing out! The products I have to admit seeing the oil sit on top of the water is definitely a different look as most products are mixed through. Its a bit of a bugger with the plastic packaging as most people are now consensus of packaging and the environment take on it but it at least can be recycled. The application is pretty basic cotton ball, soak and wipe, pretty easy if you ask me but I am not sure it will live up to the 200 applications it claims as I felt I was using a lot of cotton balls. Make up removal - The make up removal it claims is excellent, it seamlessly takes off foundation and mascara the only down side you need multiple cotton balls to do this. Although this feels oily to touch it doesn't leave your face feeling oily, in fact it made my face feel almost soft and silky to touch, No reactions happened when using the product but neither users have sensitive skin so that is not an indication you wont have a reaction. I also used the miceller water as a end of day quick cleanser when I wasn't wearing make up. I was really surprised it took off the dirt and grime from the days work and left my face feeling fresh. For a busy mum of 3 time is of the essence and this is a quick routine I am now adding in to help clear my skin. Overall the product is great, interested to see in the future if it lives up to is 200 use claim but I am sure in no time I will see. We will be both using this product regularly, Miss Teen for makeup removal and mum for skin cleanser (until I have more me time). The price point makes it worth a try so why wouldn't you.

My teens love this better then the no oil brand me too the oil leaves skin feeling soft an removes all makeup easy for eyes we dampen a cotton swab hold on eye for 10secs then wipe down boom comes of with ease awesome love it

I bought this Micellar as my normal Neutrogena Oil Cleanser was out of stock at Countdown and I’m so glad I did. This is definitely going to replace it as it is effective at removing nearly all my makeup and is double the size. Every other time I have used a Micellar it’s never got my skin as clean as I would like it.

The formula is bi-phase so oil over water, just give it a shake before use. There is a smell of Argan oil which I actually don’t like but it won’t stop me from buying this again but does mean it’s a 4/5 for me especially if you are sensitive to that scent.

I use a few swipes on a cotton pad firstly on my face then a bit more vigorously on my eyes when I’ve worn shadow and mascara. It even removes Maybelline superstay matte lipstick which is a miracle as that’s hard to budge. I always have a wet flannel handy after I use this as although it says on the bottle no greasy feeling I can still feel it on my skin. On the odd day I have a bit of dark makeup that it hasn’t removed I just use another corner of my pad and use some additional eye makeup remover.
