I was excited to trial this product, having read a lot of great things about it.
Pros: - Generous 400ml sized bottle with simple but eye catching graphics. I'm slightly skeptical of the bottle containing enough for 200 uses. Maybe if you don't wear full makeup. - The water has a neutral 'fresh' smell. No cloying perfume, which I appreciated. I used it on a cotton makeup remover pad and it glided easiky over my skin. - I have red hair and the obligatory pale, sensitive skin. The water left my skin feeling slightly tingly, like with a very mild toner. I have always been a creamy cleanser, toner & moisturiser girl, using a washcloth instead of wipes or tissues. I always use an organic cleansing range for my normal routine due to sensitive skin. This product caused no adverse reactions. There's a slight tacky feeling afterwards, like with gels or serums. - All foundation came off relatively easily but it did require using 2-3 cotton pads.
Cons: - I struggled to remove waterproof mascara.
Over the course of a week I ended up using my normal cleanser for evenings, when I had a full face of makeup to remove. Then I used the Micellar Water to remove the last traces of makeup. In the morning I used the water by itself. Definitely a great product to have in your beauty product stash.
This product has very simple packaging and instructions and is very competitively priced. It is easy to use and has minimal smell. I found it left my face a bit sticky although that soon disappeared and could also be due to the humidity we've had lately. I tended to use it before I had a shower in the morning and night and used water anyway afterwards to wash my face clean. I felt it did a reasonable job but am not entirely convinced my face was 100% clean afterwards.
