Sephora Collection Triple Action Cleansing Water Review

I love micellar water and I'm a Sephora fan, so when I was restocking my travel sizes, I threw a 50 ml one of these into my order.

I've been actively trying to waste it ever since. I've used three other micellar waters and this isn't the worst but it's definitely not something I'm in a huge hurry to use again. It does take off makeup, I'll give it that. not well, and it struggles with brighter or darker looks (including Sephora brand makeup, which you would think Sephora brand makeup remover could cope with.....).

The packaging is probably the best bit - a short, squat, clear bottle with a secure black screw cap, and a dispensing hole that maintains the purity of the product within, in terms of the fact that it won't be contaminated by accidentally getting makeup in the bottle.

The scent is really harsh and vaguely chemical. It's the usual thin micellar consistency, and clear. It feels 'hard' (ie not the soft, velvety, luxurious feel of most eyemakeup removers) and ... well.... it' snot the nicest experience, really.

Maybe I'm spoiled by the ones that have no scent and feel nicer, but this has left me thoroughly underwhelmed, to be honest!

I bought this on sale from Sephora a while ago. I thought the price was good and I was looking for a decent micellear water. I didn't think that this was it. I've had it for months and months now and I barely use it, it just sits in my drawers, because "what if I need it one day" (I'm absolutely terrible with that oops).

This does remove my makeup, but it takes a bit of effort. On days when I'm wearing minimal makeup it's fine, but when I'm wearing a more full coverage foundation and more eye makeup it takes a lot of the micellear water and a lot of time and patience (which I don't really have when it comes to removing makeup) to remove. It also leaves my skin feeling quite dry. I usually wouldn't mind that too much if the makeup remover takes my makeup off easily, but this just doesn't.

I think there are far better, more affordable options that are a lot more accessible than this.

I used my points with Sephora to purchase a small bottle of this and was really hoping it would work as I wear a full face of makeup everyday and definitely need something that will do what it promises. This was not that product! It removed some of my eye makeup and the majority of my foundation but I definitely needed to go back over my entire face with a decent cleanser afterwards. I’m not a huge fan of micellar waters as I prefer an oil cleanser but this one is not one I will use again. You can definitely purchase ones cheaper at the supermarket that work better than this one.

Second micellar water i have tried and Garnier brand gives it a pants down spanking!!!

While it does as it is meant to, it has a rather over powering smell but does moisturise the skin and if your make up is heavy you may need to try a couple times to remove all your makeup.

One thing that is great is it comes in a perfect travel sized bottle making it excellent for the suitcase and does leave skin feeling refreshed once used.

I bought this quite a while ago and haven’t used it much since. It’s good at removing makeup but I feel like it might be too harsh for my skin. It smells quite strong which I think might be the alcohol, but it might be fragrance. Either way, I don’t like it so I won’t be using it much again.
