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 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...!
