Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

A lovely and very easy to use cleansing water. Simply generously apply to a cotton pad and wipe all over your face, eyes too. Makeup comes off very quickly and skin is left feeling clean, refreshed and hydrated. I highly recommend this product if you need a makeup remover or a cleanser.

There is nothing like getting home after a long day to a new package from BR, and like usual I couldn't help but try it out straight away. Now let me be clear, I had never even heard of this product in any form before and was extremely curious to see what all the fuss was about. Its water right? So obviously it would clean my skin but could it possibly be as easy as everyone was saying? Well it was, and more. I wasn't wearing any make up the first time I used it, only a moisturiser and even though I was expecting a bit of grime after a day running around town I could not believe what was on my cotton ball when I had finished cleaning my face. It seemed that every bit of dirt I had come in contact with during the day was stuck to it. Yuck! But when I used a fresh cotton ball, there was hardly any residue at all. It truly picked up everything! And so began a week of experimenting. Foundation, lipstick, eye shadow and that bane of my make up removal efforts, waterproof mascara - all off in one go. I used my usual face scrub, then cleaned my face, it picked up a few amounts of dirt traces and my face felt so clean but without the squeaky dried out feeling. My face feels so clean and my skin is definitely brighter looking. I save so much time in the mornings cleaning my face with the added bonus of not splashing water everywhere when I try to rinse of some foamy cleanser lol! Also, you can decant some into a travel bottle and take it away for a night, you don't even need a mirror to clean your face of all make up before bed. Cannot praise it enough and will not be using anything else any more!

I love this product! It feels so natural on my skin as it is so light. It is super easy to use and I can tell it will last as the bottle is huuuuge!! It is surprising how much makeup actually comes off - thank god for this new product.Thanks BR you are amaze x

When I got chosen for this review I thought "oh yeah....right, lets see this product truely cleans my face and remove water proof mascara!" It arrived very quickly as products always do from BR. I really like its simple look. Noting too showy just a nice fresh looking packaging. I tried it immediately! Love that there is no smell, it easily soaked the cotton pad. Then came the best bit of all...it very easily removed ALL OF MY MAKEUP just as it promised! Water proof mascara, lip stick and foundation all removed. It took a couple of go overs for mascara, but I expect that. My skin felt lovely after using it. Fresh and clean. No reaction after a few days either which is great! My 11 year old daughter has also used it, no reaction for her, and she wants her own bottle. I will definitely continue to use this, I am sold! Only negative for me is size of bottle, but thats minor.

I was a bit skeptical of how well cleansing "water" would work, especially for removing waterproof makeup. I haven't been wearing a lot of makeup lately because I can't be bothered removing it! but I put some on to try this out, and I was shocked at how well it lifted everything! I only needed to use one cotton pad (both sides) and it got everything off without any hassle. When I use makeup wipes, I find I have to use a few to get everything off, which is a waste when there aren't many in a pack. Even makeup remover liquids I've used from the supermarket don't do a very good job.

The only bad thing I found with this, is that it made my skin oily if I didn't wash my face with water after cleansing with it. But that doesn't bother me too much as it works so great!

The bottle is a generous size and $12.99 is a good price considering how many uses you will get out of it. I will most likely purchase again when I run out!

I had tried a similar product before, and found that it stung my eyes a little when removing eye makeup.

This didn't do that.

I managed to remove mascara, eyeshadow, and primer from my eyes using one cotton pad! No stinging, no crying, and the products just melted away.

I've used it twice a day, every day. When I wake up in the morning and have a shower, I run a cotton pad half-soaked with the cleansing water over my face. I find that it leaves enough moisturising properties that I don't need to use my facial moisturisers.

At night, its just a quick wipedown to remove the grime and dirt from the day.

I think I would almost prefer a scented version, it has a very slightly noticeable clinical smell, almost like witch hazel.

I love that it tones at the same time - I've just run out of my favourite one, so this fills the gap nicely.

All in all, a great product.

I love this product! It's so quick and easy to use. My skin can be very sensitive, dry and oily! With using Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water, it made my skin very clean & moisturised. My skin didn't get irritable, which is so awesome!! It removes make-up so easily without harsh scrubbing or rubbing. It is everything it says it is. Information on the bottle is easy and clear to read. I think the bottle looks great, nice and girly and labelled well. I've also noticed my skin has improved. The amount of dirt that it removes from your face if not wearing make-up is unbelievable!! It says 200 uses, I truly believe you would get that, as you don't need much. I think the price is very reasonable and affordable. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water is definitely a product I would highly recommend for anyone and definitely one I am going to continually use. Thank you Garnier for making this fantastic product! xx

I received this product free from Beauty Review and have been using it nightly for nearly a week. Overall I would describe this product as a very light and gentle toner, most suited to those who wear only a little makeup. Most days I just use mascara and a bit of BB cream. This was okay at removing the BB cream but very poor at removing mascara (Lancome, Benefit). On the weekend I wore more makeup - foundation, powder, blush, eye shadow etc and found I needed to use a moist towelette first (Simple) and then this cleansing water. It did okay on my face, but I had to resort to my usual makeup remover for my eyes. I'd recommend it for anyone who wants a very gentle rinse after normal cleansing, instead of toning.

My first impression of the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water All in One was that it was very simply packaged and actually looked like nothing more than a bottle of water. This was possibly the impression that Garnier was aiming for. The recommended retail price was very cheap and affordable. I used the product for the first time that night after my shower. As I always wash my face and make up off while in the shower, I was interested to see what the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water would pick up on what I thought was a clean face. I was very surprised by the amount of makeup that came off on the cotton pad and realised how much I was leaving on my face on a daily basis. It was quite a shock really!! The only part of my makeup that Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water did not totally remove was my mascara, so I had to rub vigorously to get it off. This was a little different from the description on the bottle which says ‘perfectly clean … without vigorously rubbing’. The product is also meant to be suitable for sensitive skins and I did not have any adverse reactions to it in the 10 days I used it, where sometimes I can get eczema so I was very pleased with that. Although the label said it was perfume free, it had a slight chemical smell and when I checked the list of ingredients on the back it had a lot of chemicals listed that I did not recognise. This could possibly stop me from using it again as I prefer natural products. I would possibly refer this product to friends, as it did clean my face well, but more than likely I would recommend it to friends who did not mind using chemical products so much.

What can I say? Pretty Good! This really is amazing how well it take's off your makeup, the best way I can describe it is as I said in the title, a little Makeup Magnet Nothing like makeup wipes or anything else I've ever used for that matter, rather than smudging your left over makeup across your face it seems to just pull it away from the skin I have used this every night before bed and am loving it, I get a small cotton pad and soak it in the cleansing water, start with my mascara then eyes then rest of my face, it doesn't really have a smell, I didn't get any burning or tingling it literally feels like you're putting water on your face and it leaves your skin feeling like you've just got out of the shower I do have to use a couple of pads (But I do wear a lot of makeup) The bottle is really cute with the pink top and is a very generous size, say's on the label "200 uses" (we shall see) but I do see it lasting me a long time In conclusion I think it's a worthy product to keep on my shelf, I would repurchase and have already recommended to friends and family Go get some! You wont be disappointed!
