Garnier Micellar Cleansing Wipes Review

Price wise these are good as they are very affordable. I did find however that I had to really wipe my face a few times to get the product off. I use and love the micellar water in this range, but this wasn’t really the same! Also dried out very quickly

We have had a busy time prior to lock down with a few weddings and similar events.. so needless to say lots of makeup and lots of needing to take off the makeup. I always take off my makeup if I’m home I double cleanse but if I’m away from home or wearing a lot of makeup like I would to a wedding I like to use wipes so I have been working my way through the wipes.

I grabbed these and some Nivea ones. I must say they are on par with the Nivea ones.

I needed two wipes per removal process just to get everything off and ensure wipe was wet enough to remove my full makeup and eye makeup. It really coated two full wipes with the mess from my face. It would be nice to use just one but no.

So it’s a matter of the wipe being A bit small or not wet enough to remove it all to start with.

The scent was fresh I am a bit disappointed with most wipes scents to be honest. I find them a bit plain and not nice.. it’s really just an ok scent whereas I would prefer a lighter scent or none at all especially when using around my eye and nose area.

It really took a lot of pressure and rubbing to use these I would rather in future use a flannel and cleanser I think. I went for convenience but it wasn’t too affordable when I add on the fact I was using a few wipes at a time.

Convenient but pricey. Much prefer a micellar by itself or a cleanser. Use 1 for a clean and 2 (at least) for makeup removal and a clean.

I am a big fan of face wipes and micellar water so when I saw these I was really keen to give them a go. I wasn't super impressed by these at all. I found them quite difficult to use and wipe on my face, they keep slipping out of my hand. I also found that it didn't get a lot of my make up off, it didn't take mascara off very well. I also wasn't a big fan of the packaging, after a few times of opening and closing it. The tab lost its stickiness and some of the wipes would then dry out.

I purchased some of these from a big bucket sale for $6.

25 in a pack so it seemed to be a pretty fair price. I was a bit skeptical about a wipe on my face as I break out or get a stingy face if I wipe my face with a baby wipe. I needed something practical to remove my makeup at the end of the day before I could actually wash it off so these made sense.

My first packet I was really happy with performance from them, removed makeup well, thicker and darker eye makeup not so much but enough till I cleansed my face. So stubborn makeup these aren't any good for. However I noticed a break out after I had finished using these and was quite dissapointed. I hadn't changed anything in my skin care regime except using these wipes so I did put it down to these. However that didn't stop buying me another packet.

My second packet I had such a different experience. My makeup was a lot harder to remove with these wipes. They were not as 'wet' as the last lot so needed a bit of elbow grease to remove the makeup on my face. I broke out almost straight away within using them. So I stopped.

These are 'gentle' on sensitive skin as I never had the stingy feeling or the redness with them but I did breakout.

I won't be using them again. They didn't work for me how I had hoped. This doesn't mean they won't work for others :)

I use makeup wipes every day, because I wear makeup every day, and I'm the kind of person that by the end of the night I like to have the option of sitting on the couch to remove my makeup. So this definitely isn't a review on makeup wipes per se (they're great), but a review on the Garnier Micellar variety.

About a year or two ago when Micellar became the beauty buzzword, I tried the Garnier Micellar Water (in bottle). I liked it, but as a testament to my aforementioned lazy ways, it didn't stick because I hate washing flannels. I went back to my makeup wipes. Then! Lo and behold, here are Micellar Wipes!

Unfortunately they did not meet my expectations. They do remove it, but I found I had to spend a lot longer vigorously rubbing my face to break up the make up. This caused the wipe to rough up into some half disintegrated mess.

I had purchased these hoping for a portable and convenient version of the amazing micellar water. But this was not it! I found these wipes dry, and did not live up to their liquid version. They did not remove all my makeup and I still needed to clean my face after two of these. For a quick refresh they would be fine but I would just use a baby wipe for that for a much more cost effective alternative.

I picked these up on special to try as they were significantly cheaper than my preferred choice and having used miceller water before I thought they might do the trick.

The wipes are soft and easy to use but a little drier then I expected. They claimed to be gentle for sensitive skin which I believe they are however I did find they required a lot of rubbing to remove heavy make up which has the potential to irritate. 

They are affordable but I wouldn't use these again because I think there are better wipes on the market.

Not a huge fan of the wipes. They are very drying on my face.I do have dry skin already however. At a pinch great for taking off your makeup after a long night. But I wouldn't like these for daily use unfortunately.

I'm a huge fan of Garnier Micellar Water and when I found out it came in wipe form I was stoked. I'm not a huge fan of wipes but they're super handy for in the gym and cleaning up your hairline when you're dying your hair, plus I've been travelling a lot and thought I'd check them out.

Packaging wise they're pretty simple - a pretty pink and white package in keeping with the liquid version, with a resealable tab.

The wipes are mid softness/thickness, but - and here's the issue - they're really dry. I don't understand this. Micellar Water works best when you're generous with it. So why, WHY have dry wipes? So confusing.

Because of this, I find I have to ADD water to them (and sometimes even add micellar water as well!) to get them to even approach being useful to me. I get a far better result using regular baby wipes, to be honest.

I may have had a dud packet but I got them the first week I saw them so they can't have been sitting on the shelves that long - i think they've just missed out something with the manufacturing.

I'd try them again as a GWP or if they were on super special just to see if they improved, but I'm not holding my breath, unfortunately.
