I was skeptical about this product for so long, purely because of the word cleansing water. I mean water that removes stubborn makeup? And cleans? Really?
I purchased the 400ml bottle from my local pack an save for $10 on special. They now do a smaller bottle for half the price.
With a full face of makeup on, a damp cloth and micellar water in hand I put it to the test. I applied about 6 generous squirts to the damp cloth and washed my face. This product doesn't lather up but it does have a soapy feeling to it. A good massage and rinse it had sure enough removed my makeup even my mascara! I did however need to go over my eyes a couple of times to give them a good wash to get the eye makeup off. It wasn't quick and easy.
I don't find this product scented at all. I have sensitive and dry skin and it didn't irritate my skin or dry it out.....clean it? I just wasn't convinced. I did and still do just use this product as a makeup remover and still use a separate cleanser afterwards.
Another amazing thing about this product? Great makeup brush cleaner. All you need is a cup a little water and some of this and wha laa. I used to use baby shampoo but that since has been replaced by this product. It removes all of the product on my brushes and makes them super clean without hard effort.
I'm glad I purchased this product and will continue to use it. I've already used over half of my first bottle, love it :)
I only ever wear eyebrow powder and eyeshadow on a daily basis so this is perfect for me to remove makeup. It doesn't dry my skin out afterwards but does leave a little bit of a residue. That being said, this isn't that great for mascara or tougher makeup like foundation. So when wearing such makeup items, I need to use a tougher cleanser but I like to use this product after just to get rid of the cleanser and any remaining makeup. I'd definitely recommend this product for those who don't wear much makeup and are kind of lazy at the end of the day.
