Great new product

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.

Tips: Hold cotton pad over closed eyes for a few seconds to make it easier for your eye make up to be removed.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

I love this cleanser!!! It makes the skin tingle afterwards while it dries. My favourite thing is that I don't have to clean my face after removing the make up like you have to when using other cleansing wipes. The only thing it didn't do was remove fully my mascara. My skin felt nice, soft and refreshed afterwards and didn't take long to feel dry. I would certainly buy this again when this bottle runs out.

Tips: Don't put too much of the cleansing water on the cotton pad/cotton wool as you only need a small amount.

Yep, yes

After hearing about everyone raving about this product I was very excited to learn that I would be able to trial it!

When looking for make-up removers and cleansers my main concerns are if they will sting my eyes, remove make-up efficiently and if they will leave my face feeling oily.

I ripped open the packaging as soon as I received it in the mail. Had a sniff and it doesn't really have any sort of scent that I could make out.

I've tried it with a full face of make-up and it worked wonderfully. On an average day my basics are double wear foundation with a MAC powder over the top, Napoleon Perdis eyeliner and an Estee Lauder mascara. This cleansing water managed to remove all of my eye makeup and 90% of my foundation on the first go. (I rubbed, even though they say 'no need to rub') I needed to go over my face about three times before there was no foundation visible on the cotton pad I used. I did a quick test with coconut oil after just to see if there was any left and there wasn't.

No stinging! Not left feeling oily!

$13 is an awesome price considering how big the bottle is, the cap is relatively small as well so you don't waste much.

Tips: Use cotton pads! Hold down on eye make-up for a few seconds and swipe across, comes off very easy.

A cotton bud fits perfectly at the opening, handy for when you make an eyeliner/mascara mistake.

garnier micellar

i found this ok, it done what it said it would i like it dosent have a flash bottle ,but the best part was when taking my make up off i didnt have that strong chemical smell , there was no smell and it was gentle on my skin and didnt sting me so to me this is the one i would use, especially if u have seniitive skin and it dosent irritate , so a plus for me and also leaves your skin feeling soft so it nt only takes your make up off but cleans and softens as well , AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!

Tips: no tips except make sure only limited amount on eyes as it does sting if u put to much on your cotton ball

magic water anyone?

So ill start by saying I have super duper sensitive skin so am always hesitant to try new facial products, but when this cleansing water that has already been raved about and hadnt yet been released in nz was offered, how could i turn my nose at the opportunity? Besides it does say suitable for all skin types. When i received this gem, i had a "cake face day" so great opportunity to put it to the test!. Now anyone who is a wearer of double wear know that that foundation sticks! well the results double wear 0-cleansing water 1. With one wipe double wear was no more. eyebrows didnt stand a chance either! Though it took another round of cleaning to get rid of all remnants of make up, the cleansing water did a brilliant job. Around the eyes caused a bit of sting but nothing a gentle hand cant get around. After use, my skin felt like it was breathing again and also moisturized. And no allergic reactions! not a single dot of a rash popped up. very happy I will be purchasing this again me thinks!

Tips: Have a gentle hand around the eyes as it does sting if it gets in your eyes

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water - No Aha Moment!

I have always been scrupulous about cleaning my face before going to bed and was very interested by Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water promises.

I do not wear much make-up and some days I actually don't wear any. A little squirt of Micellar Water on a cotton pad does the trick every evening. The make-up or the impurities of the day are easily removed. However, for me, the product does half what it claims.

Why only half? After the cleansing of my sensitive clear skin, I do not have a "aha" or "feel good" moment. My face is clean, but my skin is irritated; irritated and not refreshed.

The RRP of $12.99 is a good price for a 400ml bottle. Garnier claims the bottle contains the equivalent to 200 applications. I agree. It is good that the bottle is made of #1 polyethylene terephthalate, which is supposed to be a safer plastic, and can be recycled in New Zealand.

I would not recommend the product to friends who have a sensitive skin, due to the irritation I am experiencing.

Tips: Do not squeeze too much Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water on the cotton pad. The product will foam and it is not nice.

Love this product

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.

Tips: Apply with a cotton pad so you don't waste it

Worth the hype!!

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

Tips: I read that this can be used to clean makeup brushes. Put a little in a shallow container, place brush bristles in leave a few mintues then rinse. Works great!

What a great product!

I'd read about micellar water and must admit I was a little dubious but jumped at the chance to try it.

Firstly I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the bottle and jumped to the conclusion that meant you need a lot of it - the first night proved me wrong! The packaging is bright and modern and simple. The top is sturdy but easy to open and the size of the hole is perfect - it makes it impossible to use too much!

I also thought it would smell but it really doesn't - maybe only a tiny bit but it's very pleasant.

The consistency is as expected - watery but is nice to use. My skin can break out at almost anything but even after a week my skin is still clear (very happy).

It claimed that you don't have to rub to remove make up and I initially didn't find this to be correct - I did have to rub to remove my mascara, but it did remove it very well and I didn't have to runrub as hard as with my normal cleanser. I realised on about day 3 that if you use it like nail varnish remover (hold and wipe) it made a huge difference.

My skin has been clean and soft - so soft that when I realised at 10am that I'd forgotten to put my moisteriser on I touched my face and was amazed to see how soft it still was!

If this really is $13 for this size bottle when it comes onto the market, I'll be a definite convert!

Impressive

I was so excited to trial this product because of all the hype surrounding it, and I am really impressed!

Firstly, I love how big the bottle is, and how small the price tag is. This is definitely something I can afford to buy again without thinking too much about it.

I do not wear a heap of makeup, usually just BB cream, mineral foundation powder, mascara and sometimes lippie. This miracle water does SUCH a fantastic job of removing this and leaves my skin feeling clean, refreshed and soft. No dryness at all.

I have been using a round cotton pad (both sides remove everything), soaked in probably about a 1/2 teaspoon of the liquid.

Overall, this is a very handy and effective product that I feel I will be getting a lot of use out of. I will definitely be recommending it to friends.
