Liquid gold

When the hype started about Micellar cleansing water I just had to jump onto train and find out for myself what on earth could make a product this popular! I picked it up from Countdown at $16 and what an amazing way to spend $16.

I've heard quite alot of girl complaining about the Micellar water breaking them out and causing lobster faces which made me quiver I must admit and onward we went to make the purchase... Never looking back.

I've used this Micellar water as a makeup remover and used it as a toner after cleansing because why not. Its a cleansing water? So would extra cleansing, after cleansing hurt? Dont even imagine it! My skin is looking the best its looked in years and years.

Makeup remover - At night when I remove my makeup, I saturate a medium sized cottonboll and swipe the crazy out of face. I love how this removes waterproof mascara without drama and just a few swipes takes off all the makeup. And just to make sure its all gone I'll use a second cottonball just to swipe off any extra and let me tell you the extra is microscopic cause theres almost nothing left behind. I dont do any additional cleansing and my skin is baby soft, smooth but most of all feels nourished.

As a toner/cleanser - On my no makeup days I'll use the Micellar as cleanser toner to wash off the day. When do use a cleanser I'll still grab for the Micellar water to refreshen up and wake up my face. Again, my skin is plump, soft and full of life.

This product blows me away because I have super sensitive and after seeing many girls complain about skin problems with the Micellar I was sure I was going to be another statistic. Oh no! My skin for once wants me to enjoy a product and absolutely fall in love with. This has replaced my makeup removers and toners because its so versatile so not only is it healthy for skin but I'm saving money products. Could it get any better?

Micellar Cleansing Water will forever and always be in skincare collection. This is pure liquid gold.

Tips: An alternative use is a toner after cleansing or just cleansing even when you're not using makeup.

Greasy

I really enjoyed how well the micellar water took my make up off especially eye makeup. However I did find that if I didn't wash my face afterwards I would break out as it left a greasy residue. I still use it to remove eye make up and stubborn lipstick but wash away the residue once done

Love it!

I was a bit uncertain about using this micellar cleansing water as I had tried the simple skin brand and it didn't do anything for my skin. This Micellar Cleansing water is great for taking off makeup and also washing off the day in general. I find that it takes off makeup better than other makeup removers and removes almost all of my heavy eye makeup which normally takes a good 5 minutes of scrubbing with other products. I no longer feel bad about waking up and washing my face with this instead of my normal cleanser when I'm in a rush. It is perfect for sensitive skin too, and I have experienced no extra redness or rashes since using this product. I think the only problem with this product is the price. 16 dollars is a lot to pay so I try and buy it when it's on sale.

Yes! (for the most part)

I went out and bought this upon recommendation from my Cousin. I had always used makeup wipes because they're easy to carry around so I was reluctant to switch to something that was in a bottle and also required cotton pads to use it as well but I must say it is a nice product to use! I heard it broke people out but this didn't happen to me...although I cleansed after removing my makeup with my standard cleanser so this could be the solution for some people using it as a stand alone. The only issue I really have with this is sometimes It just won't get my mascara and eyeliner (tight lined) off super easy, like I do have to rub a lot which isn't ideal but it's only with certain products not all so overall it does what it needs to and it feels quite refreshing too which is the best after a whole day of wearing makeup!

holy grail

Sooo i brought this about 3 months ago only because it was something different and i love buying new things. I put it on my face every morning and night after ive washed my face. I let it dry and put moisturiser on then do my face. I have not had a single breakout since i started using it. I love it. Its amazing and it lasts sooo long.

Great make up remover

It really does remove makeup like it says it does, but for my dry skin if I have to redo something more than once I dry out! Was experimenting with different eyeshadow looks and after the third trial it stung like mad and I had really dry eyes for days!

Tips: Limit use!

Soothing on tired eyes

It's really astounding to me how little makeup my cleanser actually removes. Before this product I would have easily said 100%. After? Maybe 80% at best., This stuff really does remove a buttload of residual makeup and dirt and leaves my skin feeling so refreshed. It's also terrific at removing eye makeup and I find it really soothes tired itchy eyes, so I tend to use it after long days of reading or on the computer. Feels very pampering.

Overrated

I didn't like this micellar water. It felt oily and left a residue in my eyes when I tried to use it to remove eye makeup (which it didn't remove). My vision was blurry for a few minutes until I blinked all the product out. The bottle is bigger than other brands and the price is cheaper so I can see the attraction but I would rather use a regular cleanser than this rubbish. The Loreal version is much better quality and is not oily.

Tips: There are heaps of other brands available now- I'd start with one of those.

Worked wonderfully

I tried the Garnier Micellar water after hearing all the hype and really thought it lived up to the expectation. I was initially worried it would sting or be quite oily in my eyes but this was not the case. It removed all my eye makeup so quickly and easily and soothed the skin around my nose too! Will definitely keep using this as it is so handy for taking off my eye makeup once home from work, before cleansing my whole face at bedtime.

Tips: Use with cotton pads when removing eye makeup

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

It is my Holy Grail to remove makeup instantly, totally love this product. It does what is says. It is quick and easy to use, simply by soaking a cotton pad and gently swipe off face.

Tips: I tend to leave a soak cotton pad for about 5-10 seconds on the eye area and gently swipe off eyeshadows and waterproof mascara. Not only do I use it remove makeup, I find it cooling and refreshing if I my eyes are puffing by soaking a clean cotton pad and leave it on for 1-5 minutes.
