Recently I had some kind of weird allergy to something and my face was covered in a dry bumpy horrible rash.
Initially I though it was a new moisturiser but I think perhaps it was some kind of weird change of season thing.
Because my skin was aggravated already, anything I put on it stung and burned and it seemed as though it would never repair itself.
I bought the Micellar water and found it absolutely fabulous! It caused no irritation and felt fresh and non-drying on the skin.It takes off makeup really well (including facepaint)
I have also been using it to clean my makeup brushes and sponges and have found it very effective.
Super pleased with this product, Would definitely be handy to have a more portable version for overnight trips etc as it is a rather large bottle with a not so secure lid.
Such an easy way to remove my makeup last thing at night. I just soak a couple of cotton pads in micellar water and whisk them all over my face and neck. Every trace of makeup is gone and my skin feels clean and toned, not stripped. I can massage my night cream onto my skin right away, no rinsing or drying.
I haven't found it to be very effective at removing my eye-makeup, but waterproof mascara is a trial for most cleansers. I do find it stings like crazy if I get it in my eye by accident too.
Easily available with my weekly shop, I am halfway through one bottle after two months so I think it is great value for money. In comparison with another micellar water I have tried (Simple) I think the Garnier product is superior.
