I was really excited to try out this Garnier Micellar water in oil as I have previously tried the other micellar waters from Garnier and they have all reacted with my skin.
I really like this one and I can recommend it to others with sensitive skin. I do see a major difference in this one compared to the previous ones too.
All of the other micellar waters have burned my skin, like literally left it with a burning sensation. This one hasn't done that. The only reaction I have had this time around is that it did react with the dry skin around the creases of both sides of my nose - but I do know that they can be easily irritated,
I love how easily this removes makeup. I didn't have to rub at all just apply and dab off. It didn't leave anything behind either. It also has a pleasant smell to it too.
Its very gentle especially on my eye area and removes eye makeup like a dream.
I believe this is the best micellar water yet from Garnier. A little goes a long way so I can see this lasting for a long time too.
Another addition by Garnier to their Micellar range. The packaging is similar to other Garnier Micellar bottles and comes in a decent 400ml bottle. The product needs a good shake before use so you get an even distribution of the oil and water otherwise you’ll just end up with a lot of oil on your cotton wipes/cloth. I do have dry and sensitive skin but this product is easy to use and quite gentle on the skin.I found that it was very easy to remove my make and especially waterproof mascara. I just needed a few wipes with out any hard rubbing and was able to get off my heavy eye make without much effort. It did not irritate my skin at all and did leave it feeling quite soft. However I did find that it left a greasy residue after use (so it certainly doesn’t dry out your skin) and even though it say no rinsing required, I had to use my foaming wash to get rid of the oily feel and achieve that complete clean feel. It does have a pleasant smell to it but personally I just like my cleansers to be fragrant free. ( but that’s no biggie, it just comes down to personal choice) Overall a good product and excellent makeup remover, however not a face cleanser. I will continue to use it for makeup removal but have to follow up with my normal face cleanser for a complete clean feel.
Tips: Would work well for heavy makeup wearers. Also I little bit of product goes a long way.
