Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

Was looking forward to this hitting NZ shops! It is well worth the hype. I wear long wear foundation (double wear) and this removed it all and eye makeup without irritating my sensitive eyes. A little goes a long way and a bottle will last forever. I dont use this as my sole make up remover as I still cleanse afterwards. Will repurchase

I trialled this product over the past 2 weeks and have really loved it. I used the product at night after a day with makeup and in the morning without - both gave me amazing results and my skin was clean and felt soft. I also got sunburn during the trial and it helped soothe my skin so definitely awesome for sensitive skin.

Wow this product is awesome I'm so hooked. I must admit come night time I always fall straight into bed without removing my make-up, but I have been removing it ever since this cleansing water arrived in the mail.

It get's all my makeup off including Mascara which is fantastic and the make up comes off easily so you don't have to rub your skin to get it off. I love the fact that it has a small opening so you don't waste heaps as you pour it out and that there wasn't a awful strong smell. It didn't sting my skin or leave it feeling dry or oily afterwards.

Love the bigger size bottle and a great price for it as well, so in a nut shell a fabulous product that does what it states. Any another product I can purchase easily at the supermarket.

I'm in love. All you need to do is pour a little bit on some cotton wool and wipe makeup off. No stinging. No rinsing.

I have sensitive skin, so cleansers or makeup removal wipes always make my skin sting, especially near the eyes, but this doesn't have any smell, is nice and clear, and definitely no stinging.

Not having to rinse saves so much time and effort too. Cold water sucks in winter, and sometimes you honestly cannot be bothered. This is such a simple solution, I'm so happy with this product!

It works perfectly on waterproof eye makeup too. As well as being really good at cleansing your skin, it feels super soothing afterwards. I often don't even bother with moisturiser when tired, because my skin feels fine anyway.

Got an invite to try this product and I love it.

This product is simple to use which is one of the things I love most about it.

I have in general pretty good skin but I do in the mornings feel grimmy and like my face needs a refresh but I never seem to have time to do a full clean, thats where this product is perfect, its simple to use you just put a small amount on a cotton pad and wipe your face and it cleans the grime and leaves your facer feeling refreshed.

I will definatley be buying this product again.

I had been eyeing this product up for ages, after hearing so much about it and was beyond excited to trial this. Like a lot of other popular items, I wondered if it would live up to the hype. IT DID OMG IT DID. This product has literally changed the way I cleanse my face. The first time I used this, I had already washed my face with water, but holey moley I was surprised at the amount of dirt there was left on the cotton pad. I was astounded that all this dirt was blocked in my pores, after I had washed my face. I also have very sensitive skin, so was unsure whether this would sting or cause redness. Much to my delight, no reaction at all, no redness, itchiness, stinging- nada. It left my skin feeling refreshed, cleansed and hydrated, as a cleanser should. It didn't dry out my skin (like a lot of other cleaners do to my skin) or make it feel tight. Once it dried, my skin felt really smooth! Because it says you don't need to wash it off, I thought my skin would feel sticky or it would feel heavy, because there was still product left on it. But it didn’t! My skin felt so much better. I was also surprised that you don’t need any rubbing scrubbing to work this into the skin- it’s as simple as putting a small amount on to a cotton pad and wiping the face. After using this for the past week, my skin has gotten clearer and it looks brighter. My friends have commented on it, saying how clear it looks and how it glows. It’s also become smoother and my skin has become less dry and my redness has decreased. I have also used this to take my make up off, and it works amazingly. Takes my all my make up (especially my mascara) off effortlessly and doesn’t smudge too much. I also suspected that the cleanser would have some sort of scent, but it doesn't! It smells like nothing, which was pretty surprising to me. I thought this was a good thing, as some cleansers can have a chemical/acid smell which can be unpleasant. The texture is very thin and it is clear- it looks just like water! It makes it really easy to apply, and the application doesn’t come on unevenly which I love! I would definitely pay for this product. The retail price of $12.99 is almost cheap if you ask me! The bottle is HUGE (400mL is heaps) and you only need the tiniest amount to cleanse the whole face, so it will go a long way. I really like the packaging! I think the white and pink with the colourless/clear theme is really clean and simple and it displays well. The bottle is really easy to grip and the lid is really easy to open and close. The hole is a good size to distribute the product- not too small or too large. Overall, I honestly love this product. It is now part of my skincare routine, and I will continue to use this until I squeeze the last drop out. It does everything it says it does and I have nothing bad to say about it. My skin is thanking Garnier for this God sent. GO BUY THIS you won’t regret it!

I was so thrilled to receive a bottle of this from Beauty Review for trial, as I believe proper cleansing is the foundation for lovely skin, and I enjoy trying new cleansers. The bottle is so big - 400ml and therefore great value for money in my opinion. I tipped some product onto a flat cotton pad and it really does melt your makeup off, even all my eyeliner and mascara (my mascara is not waterproof, but I often have trouble getting all my eyeliner off - not with this though, it melts it off instantly). I used one side of the cotton pad for everything, then turned it over and used the other side to go over again. My skin felt smooth, clean and comfortable. Great product and so quick to use!

This is absolutely amazing cleanser, it took my makeup off perfectly with only a couple of wipes and made my skin feel dewy after application.Also never made my skin breakout.Will be buying this again once bottle has finished And because not alot of product is needed I'm sure the bottle will be lasting at least 3 months The scent isn't overpowering either like some other cleansers I have used in the past.

I was excited but nervous to be reviewing this product, as previous garnier products have not gone well with my skin.. However my faith has been restored by the micellar water!

I used this to remove my make up at night when I couldn't really be bothered washing my face. I used small amounts of the product on cotton pads to wipe my make up off. The product was amazing at removing my foundation, and especially good for taking of eye make up such as mascara. I would definitely recommend using it!

I have extremely temperamental skin that likes to randomly react to products, so the fact that this caused no breakouts or reactions was amazing for me!
