Fresh & Clean

Usually I am wary of Garnier products due to my skin reacting a lot to their products. But I adore this Miceller water! It removes all traces of my make up, usually I cleanse first then use miceller water on a cotton round to make sure everything is gone!

Tips: I use a few drops on a cotton bud to touch up any unruly gel liner smudges!

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

I would first like to thank BR for letting me review this product. I had seen a lot of people talking about this product like you tube guru's etc they seemed to love it and i was itching to try it! i must say Australia got it a long time before us! i am so happy we can finally buy it in stores here!! I got a information booklet with the micellar cleansing water which i found really helpful , it answered all my questions that i had about the product. On the back of the bottle it says to use a cotton pad soaked in garnier micellar cleansing water so the first time using it i did just that in the morning, my skin felt cleansed and refreshed it didn't leave my skin feeling oily and didn't need to be washed off. That night it was time to take off my full face of make up , i again applied about a 50 cent coin sized amount on the cotton pad but by the time i was done taking all my makeup off i must have used at least six cotton pads, it took everything off and was easy to apply. It doesn't really have a strong smell like other garnier products i have tried. Over the last week or so i have found that the best way to use this product has been to use a make up wipe all over my face first then once i have done that get the eye make up off with the cleansing water and i find that way im only using around 2-3 cotton pads. If i was to keep using six cotton pads a night the cleansing water would not last me any where near 200 uses but if i use around 2-3 cotton pads a day i feel like i could get quite close to 200 uses. For the amount of product you get it's well worth your money! I love the packaging very simple and girly, tells you everything you need to know, it doesn't have a pump but the hole it comes out of is a lot smaller than the normal so it comes out slower which is better so it doesn't go every where. I will be buying this after i have finished the bottle and would recommend it to every one. 10/10 from me!!!

Tips: Don't forget to use in the morning as well!

Love this!

Favorite way to remove makeup. Takes a couple of wipes to get all the makeup off but so easy to use and I love how gentle it is.

Tips: Works best with makeup pads rather than cotton balls

Non-irritating, cheap and effective

I've used this cleanser for a while now and it seems to last forever! I don't think it removes as much as a normal foaming cleanser, but I have super sensitive skin (and eczema) so I can't use normal cleansers anyway. This definitely doesn't irritate my skin either!

Tips: Soak cotton pad thoroughly and don't rub too hard

Refreshing and effective

I really liked this water! I put it on a cotton pad and it was so refreshing on my face and got rid of my makeup very easily. It has a small smell that is nice but not overpowering. The bottle is big so I think it will last me a long time. I will use it at night to remove my makeup from now on! It is especially good because I am lazy and sometimes don't want to go through the hassle of washing my face properly :)

Tips: use to remove makeup easily, especially on eyes because it is very gentle and doesn't sting.

Lazy girls BFF

I love this stuff when I can't be bothered fully washing my face at the end of a day. Instead of having to go to the bathroom and scrub my face clean I keep a bottle of this on my dressing table with some makeup cottonpads and use it if I havnt really worn makeup before. It dosnt tend to break my skin out (it has left me with little bumps once or twice) but I still love that you can use this stuff without having to wash it off with water afterwards.

Tips: if you have heavy eyemakeup remove it with some eye makeup remover first and then gently wipe the area with this afterwards.

I'm not Buying all the Buzz

I'm so disappointed that I am writing this review. I was so excited to get to trial it and had this internal narrative planned out where I was one of the cool kids with the hip new product about town in my cool little hands and I'd rave and be cool by association. In reality I'm the socially awkward kid who hated chatterrings and was never allowed a tamigoochi.

I feel completely evil so I'll start with what I do like. The size. At 400ml it is a very generous serving and the $12.99 price tag is very reasonable. I also love the packaging. The clear water is very appealing inside the tastefully pink and clear bottle.

I'm still kinda impressed by the sorcery behind this product. For all intents and purposes it could be water. It looks, smells and (yes morbid curiosity got the better of me) even tastes like water. Yet clearly it's some sort of spellbound elf water because it does more than mere water could ever hope to.

My main problem is I have no idea where this is supposed to fit into my regime. I've heard makeup remover/pre-cleanse wipe, stand-alone cleanser, and even an after cleanse product (but then do I still tone after that??). I'm beyond confused. It's the very last day of the trial and I've tried this every which way trying to find something that works for me and I just can't.

As a makeup remover, while I do find it works adequately, I get a MUCH better result from the coconut oil I was previously using, especially on stubborn eye makeup.

As a pre-cleanse I can clearly see on the cotton pad that it is drawing dirt and grime to it almost magnetically. I don't feel that it's doing a better job than just washing though and this adds an unnecessary step to my already extensive regime.

As a stand-alone cleaner...No. Just no. I keep seeing everyone saying how good this makes their skin feel and I swear it's like I'm using a different product. My skin feels tacky and, frankly, gross. I really did not enjoy leaving my skin like that or applying moisturiser and/or makeup overtop.

As an after cleanse I got that same icky clammy skin feeling and again, completely unnecessary step in my regime - it was nice to see that my cleanser was working and there was no grime on the pad when I did this though.

On top of all this confusion and unnecessaryness, I really don't think my skin reacted well to this at all. My chin pores got so gunked up and gross feeling. I do have some hormonal issues at play at the moment so I won't blame the breakouts I had entirely on this product but they certainly did nothing to help them and my chin has not been this bad in a loooong time.

Tips: I can possibly see this as a useful "lazy" way for me to wash my face when travelling or on cold mornings when I don't have time for the hot tap to warm up before my kids kill themselves or each other. It's an awfully large and bulky travel cleansing system though especially with cotton pads added in when there are perfectly good wipes - even travel sized versions that are even more compact - that will do this job.

I think for me this is best kept as a makeup remover for normal days where I haven't worn my bulletproof Eye of Horus liners. It makes a good makeup remover and the size and prize almost push it into great category.

Garnier micellar cleansing water

A great product at a price everyone can afford,so hassle free and really does what it says however for me it was still a little harsh on my skin,but then I have really sensitive skin,I think it would suit most other skin types ,just not mine .It felt very refreshing on my face,and certainly took my make up off very easily .i would recommend to others as a worthwhile product .

Tips: Use sparingly ,a little goes a long way

A whole new approach to skin care

This product is so easy and simple it really has changed my skin care routine for the better. I love the fact that there is no need to wash the product off and it leaves your skin feeling clean and fresh. It also saves so much time and working full time on the farm and with a small child time is a luxury. It really does remove all the makeup especially eye makeup with no hassles or excessive rubbing. I would thoroughly recommend this product to anyone.

Pleasantly suprised

My first impressions of this product was what a great size for the price. The packaging is simple and not too fussy ( which I prefer on skin cleaning products), with a handy click lock lid.

The first time using the product, I was pretty impressed. a little went a long way on a cotton pad, and the product easily glided across my face, quickly removing the makeup. It also easily removed my eye makeup very well without stinging, which was almost too good to be true!

After use, my skin felt really clean and fresh, and not oily ( as i expected). Overall a great feeling. I did feel the need to then try a cream cleanser, which did clear some further foundation residue, so not 100% convinced it would replace a cleanser, but it is so much better then facewipes, and would be perfect for lazy days, or when you are against the clock.

Overall I would highly recommend as a staple in your cupboard, as a great product to rely on (especially for removing eye makeup without being left with an oily face!)

Tips: A little seems to go a long way on a cotton pad.
