love this for removing eye makeup

I bought a bottle of this a couple of months before it was sold in New Zealand. I'd seen so many reviews saying it was a life changing product so i decided to give it a go. I paid about $13 off an overseas website, I actually can't remember which one Now!

This bottle is huge, it is 400mls of product so I really feel like you get a good amount of product for your money. It says on the bottle that there is enough for 200 uses. I have just finished my bottle recently and I got probably a good 5 months of everyday usage out of this. Packaging wise, this is a very simple bottle. It's clear packaging so you can easily see how much product you have left. The only thing i don't really like is the opening, because this product is the consistency of water, i wish it had some kind of dropper opening so you could better control how much product comes out. I also don't feel like this would be travel friendly, if the cap opened up, the whole bottle would leak out.

This product looks and feels like water, it has no scent. If the bottle is shaken, it will froth up though so a least you know it has some kind of cleanser in it.

I like to use a small amount on a cotton pad. I like to wear a lot of mascara, liner and shadow. This product will remove it all including mascara like the collection does it all one. I use one pad per eye. Sometimes i get a bit of stinging but i find that is because i have used too much product at one time. For a little while, I did use this to remove my face makeup as well. I wasn't the biggest fan as it felt like it left a film on my face and I'm not into having to double cleanse at night time. I want my routine as quick as possible.

so anyway, I used up the last of my bottle 2 nights ago. I had kind of ended up telling myself that it was a bit of an over rated eye makeup remover and I wasn't sure if I would pick it up again. I used to swear by makeup wipes to remove eye makeup. So the next night I went back to my makeup wipes and it was Awful! I felt like it took me 3 times as long to remove my eye makeup and I had to rub harder. Needless to say, I will be picking up another bottle very soon and I'll just stick to the wipes for travel.

I've also read that this is good for cleaning makeup brushes but I haven't tried it out yet.

Tips: Don't use too much product at once, a small amount will stop any stinging in your eyes.

Essential Skincare Item

I got into the micellar craze about 6 months ago and I will never go back to not having this in my skincare routine. So to give you an idea I use an exfoliating cleanser every second day and every other I use a combo of cleansing wipes and this micellar water, and its great I love it. If you are one of those people that wears a natural face of makeup everyday and dread taking it off at night then you'll love this. I use a cleansing wipe to remove mascara and what I used to think was all my make up Mmmm I was wrong, so now I follow up with the water on a jumbo cotton pad and remove the remaining make up and trust me you'll be surprised at how much is remaining! It's great for sensitive skin as it has no scent and a little goes a long way, I have been using for 6 months and have about 2/3 of a bottle left. It also doesn't leave your skin feeling tight or like it has a weird film on it. Great value for money you can pick it up on sale for around $10. Go grab you some you won't regret it.

Tips: Use with a cotton pad not ball.

monthly fave

With this remover i effortlessly removed my whole face of makeup with only 3 soaked cotton pads. The remover worked really well with taking off my eye makeup, especially my gel eyeliner and mascara. My face was left feeling clean and it didnt make my skin react at all, it left it looking very clean too.

Tips: Hold a soaked pad to your eyelid for 5 seconds before wiping across to remove your eye makeup all at once. Use a second pad for any left over mascara and eyeliner that may have smudged.

Removes makeup wonderfully

I have been using this for about a year now, and really like it. It works so well at removing eye makeup and face makeup in general. It usually takes 2-3 cotton pads to get everything off my skin, but it does such a good job. A lot of other products leave some eye makeup behind but this leaves my face totally without makeup. It's also so cheap, you get so many uses out of the huge bottle!

Tips: I always use a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil afterwards, since I don't like leaving it on my skin.

Micellar Water!

This product comes in a clear and transparent 400 ml bottle with a pink lid. Simple, pretty and girly. The product itself is a clear liquid and the flip top cap gives the right amount of product. This product will give you 200 uses (it claims).

I used this to remove makeup after work instead of using makeup removing wipes. This water removes my foundation, lip products as well as eye make up products but I feel I use a lot of product. After using it, I wash my face with a cleanser simply because I like to double cleanse. However, this is not required.

The bottle is quite hefty and so, when I travel, I take the product in a travel bottle. I have normal to oily skin and it doesn't make my skin feel oily or dry after use. It doesn't sting my eyes while removing eye makeup. I like the fact that it is fragrance free and rinsing of the face is not required after use. However, I do feel I tend to use lot more product, but it's quite economical, so I don't mind.

Overall, quite decent product and I am going to continue using it.

Micellar Water

Did exactly what it says it does! Removed makeup effortlessly, however i didn't like using it for my eye makeup. It worked well, however if i accidentally got it in my eye, it hurt a little! I couldn't use it alone, I always cleansed my face after using it as I felt it left my skin a little sticky after it dried.

Tips: Don't use too much! Only lightly wet your cotton pad, don't drench it, it makes a mess! hehe

Love in a bottle

Woooo I absolutely love this cleanser, I had to wait so long to buy it as everywhere was out of stock for so long and now I can see why! It's a huge bottle with a really handy flip lid but it actually looks healthy too! A little squirt on the cotton pads and simply wipe your makeup off easy as. I find it really works well on liquid eyeliner too. My skin feels clean but moisturised not dry at all. Can't wait to try in the summer as its a little cold on my skin at the moment lol. This is going to be a staple in my bathroom for sure :)

Tips: I find cotton pads are easier to use than cotton balls, covers more of a bigger area.

Holy water!

Had to hunt around to find this but am onto my second bottle now, I use it everyday to take my makeup off, its so gentle and takes off more than what a makeup wipe would. 100% recomend for anyone. Can do a full face of makeup and this makes sure to get every little bit back off, its truely amazing!!

Tips: I use a few round cotton pads to remove makeup every night.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

LOVE IT!!

This is the best makeup remover I have ever used. It pretty much does deliver on all promises, the only thing is I find it takes me a little bit of time to remove all 100% of my makeup.

I have yucky dry sensitive skin and this works wonders on it. It is gentle enough for my skin type and always leaves my skin feeling fresh, clean and hydrated after every use.

It does take all my make up off - just not in one quick wipe as it says it does. In fairness I would say that it takes me longer to remove all my makeup using this product but it is much more gentle and leaves my skin feeling lovely with no irritation or sensitivity afterwards. It does say that there is no need to wash your face after but I always do as I could never go to bed without washing my face first. If your not obsessed with washing your face like me then I would say you really do not need to bother, also for those with normal to oily skin this cleanser would offer enough moisture therefore eliminating the need to apply moisturizer after removing your makeup.

I love it and will continue to repurchase.

Tips: I go through far too many makeup pads when using this product - that is really the only downside. In order to eliminate the problem I combine the cleanser with baby wipes and find I can take all my makeup off with two baby wipes.
