Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Review

I love this product for removing my medium coverage everyday makeup. Super quick and easy with minimal scrubbing. I find that this is much less effective on more stubborn full coverage makeup but great for everyday use. My skin can be quite sensitive but have had no problems with this. I love how clean and soft my skin feels after a few quick swipes. Perfect that they now sell a travel size as it is a bit too big for travelling.

I’ve heard nothing but rave reviews about this product ever since it hit the shelves. Despite this I was in no hurry to rush out and get me some, as I thought that it may be a bit of a ‘trendy’ thing. But it’s been a while now since this stuff came out, and it continues to go on being loved by many, so I finally decided to give it a go.

As a cleanser on make-up free skin, it’s very gentle and leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed. I find it perfect to use in the mornings to lightly rinse away the minimal amount of grime on the surface of my face from the use of a night-cream.

As a make-up remover, I don’t like it. I’m not satisfied in it’s ability to completely remove heavy make-up. I feel that I need to use a lot of it, and a heap of cotton pads to get the heavy make-up off. It feels like too much effort compared with other products that I use for this purpose.

It’s good for cleaning make-up brushes and for wiping up little make-up spills. I’ve also used it on my sister to clean away hair dye messed around her ears and such, and it helped to get rid of that staining.

Other than that, the packaging is really cute and practical, and the product has no scent.

While I’m not in love with this Micellar water, it’s good to have, a product that comes in handy. I’m probably not going to miss it too much if I don’t have any, but i’m likely to keep some handy anyway!

Great product! its so light and refreshing yet removes my makeup for the day! its gentle and fantastic, comes in a large bottle so you get your moneys worth out of it and easy to find in stores. No complaints at all, its a must have :o)

I have tried a few water cleansers, and this is my fave so far! No residue after using, good for removing make-up, gentle on the skin, good for first timers.

Does a pretty good job of removing all makeup hasn't become my go to I only really use it if I run out of my usual products and I find it leaves a residue and I need to rinse after use.

I haven't really jumped on the Micellar water band wagon in the past, however this one came in one of the BRBB so I guess it was time to jump on and try it.

I use only BB/CC Cream on my face and quite thick black eyeliner under my eyes and this seems to do a good job at removing them. It does take a couple of applications (mainly on the eye area) but it removes the majority of it. I use a cotton pad first and then I go in with a cotton bud to remove the remaining stubborn liner.

It doesn't irritate which is great, so no stinging or burning, and I have sensitive skin especially under my eye area.

It doesn't really have a smell to me, maybe slightly fragranced but not enough to pick out a scent. It is very watery (which is why it is called micellar water I guess lol), so be careful when squeezing the bottle.

Overall, quite happy with it and it is at an affordable price and easy to find in your local supermarket or warehouse etc.

I've been using this micellar water for at least two years now and I have found it to be effective at removing my makeup for a low price. It requires a bit more effort to take of mascara with it however, and I try not to get it in my eyes because it does sting sometimes. Overall though, I really like how it does not take long for me to remove my makeup with this, even when I'm taking off stage makeup.
