Garnier Micellar Water in Oil Delicate Eyes & Skin Reviews

I have fairly sensitive dry skin and usually stay away from using these oil make up removers as I normally find them too harsh on my skin.   The packaging is no different to the other  Garnier removers, a plastic see thru bottle. The design is rather uninspiring apart from the purply/blue oil layer. It does say on the back that the bottle is 100% recycable and the flip top lid feels secure and hasn't leaked so that's a big thumbs up from me.

The bottle is quite big being 400mls. Which is probably an ideal size for a make up artist or someone who wears make up everyday but because I don't I would normally buy smaller more portable or travel friendly bottles. According to the packaging there are roughly 200 uses which does make it an affordable cleanser.

Due to oil sitting at the top and the micellar water being underneath it does needs a really  good shake to combine the layers to get the benefits of both. To use I simply shake and pour over a plain cotton wipe. I then gently dub over my eyes and swipe over my face for a few seconds. I didn't feel the need to scrub as I found it removed the make up easily . Although not necessary I do prefer to rinse my face off after use as it can feel a bit oily.

The main difference with this make up remover compared to other similar products is it appears to be less drying on my skin after use. It does have added fragrance and while the scent is not unpleasant and hasn't increased my skin sensitivity, it does seem unnecessary.

The good things about this remover are: cheap; non drying; didn't irritate my skin and removed all traces of make up including waterproof mascara.

The not so good: currently only available in 400mls; the added fragrance and lastly it did leave an oily residue.

Yes I recommend this product.

I liked this product, it seems to do the job well. Need to go over my face a couple times to make sure I've got all my make up off but it's nice and gentle so not drying me out

The combination of micellar water and oil in the Garnier Micellar Water in Oil Delicate Eyes and Skin is brilliant and definitely delivers! The formula is gentle, even on my super sensitive, reactive skin, although an oil, the formula isn’t greasy, the smell is subtle but pleasant and the price point makes it super affordable. I think it would make a great substitute for sometimes somewhat harsh wipes, my skin felt surprisingly smooth and hydrated after using thanks to the combination. I think this would be a great addition to my professional makeup kit as it can be used quickly and easily with a cotton pad and no need to rinse. I would recommend this product to anyone who is time poor at the end of the day and needs to get their makeup off quickly and hassle free. Bonus of being suitable for us sensitive skin types! Great work Garnier!

This new and improved Garnier Micellar water with oil, is a new take on previous versions of the product, it comes in a recyclable friendly container, clip lid with a easy to use squeeze nozzle, allowing for efficient spread of product onto your cleaning pad, after several pads my eye make up was removed (I use Bobbi brown for eyes) so the eye make up can be tough to move, but this product removed it quickly, the only thing that did stand out was the residue, I washed my face with cool water and then warm in order to get the product off, whilst this isn’t a bad thing it just means longer time sorting out yourself after makeup removal. I use contacts as well as glasses, and I found it didn’t irritate my eyes, which can be common among contact lens wearers. So that is a bonus.

I was lucky enough to trial this product and am impressed that I have found a Micellar water that is great for my skin as some of the others have left me with allergies. It did take a couple of cotton swabs to remove my make-up but to me that is to be expected! I love the fact that it didn't irritate my eyes while i wear my contact lenses too as some products I've used in the past have caused issues when cleaning off my make up at the end of the day.

I think I will definitely be purchasing more as I really like the fact my skin didn't react and it was easy to use and cleans off make up well.

Has an ok scent which didn't annoy me.

The typical look Garnier bottle arrived at work with the flip top lid secured with tape. I removed the tape and found that the flip top lid does lock securely and I could not detect any leaks.

The biggest difference between the “normal” micellar water and the Garnier Micellar Water in Oil Delicate Eyes & Skin is distinctive blue/purplish oil drift to the top of the bottle.

A gentle shake is all it takes to mix it through, the application is easily achieved with a cotton pad. I was nervous that it would be oily but I found that applied to my skin without leaving any residue and oiliness at all. It is super soft on the eyes (especially my super sensitive eyes), cornflower water helps relax and soothe delicate eye contours. The product is quite watery and very light to touch. It did a great job cleaning of mascara and eye makeup and left my skin nourished skin without any rubbing or rinsing .

You don’t need much and a cotton pad lightly soaked (no squeezing of the bottle required) was enough to clean my face. I do normally run a second cotton pad over to ensure my skin is properly cleaned. As it comes in a 400ml bottle it will as it predecessors last quite a long time. I would like to see these in travel size bottles. Currently, I decant them for traveling into Shampoo/Conditioner travel bottles that work well – even to throw into my handbag for use before the gym or just after work. I also appreciate that the bottle is 100% recyclable.

It clearly worked for me and I could remove all my makeup effortlessly with two cotton pads at most. You only need to gentle pressure to release quite a bit from the bottle. I use the Garnier Micellar Water in Oil Delicate Eyes & Skin every morning and every night.

It has a faint smell that is welcoming. I found it left my skin pretty silky and it felt clean with no traces of oiliness at all. It is definitely not irritating to contact wear users.

I would definitely recommend this product to friends and family with sensitive eyes. I do prefer this one to the milky Garnier Micellar water.

At about $10 a bottle, I found it very affordable and economical to use.

When this first arrived I was unsure about using a Micellar water with oil, the bottle was great and after a quick shake it mixed together like a dream.

As a contact lens wearer trying to remove makeup can be a nightmare but this removed eye make up like a dream just a small amount on a cleansing pad and my mascara and eye make up came off with no rubbing so no irritation at all.

Cleansed the rest of my face with no rubbing as well and the make up of the day was just a distant memory with no remaining signs!

My skin afterwards felt clean and plump not dry and fragile like usual after cleansing and I was able to cleanse without removing my contact lens a real dream!

I only wear waterproof eyeliner which takes a little more time to remove. I normally use wipes or my moisturiser to remove it as other products Ive previously tried, didn't work. Today I tried the Garnier Micellar. It works. There's no oil residue after use. Its lightly scented but doesn't irritate the skin especially the eye area. I love the gentle feel it has.
