Just what I've been looking for!

I was really excited when I heard about this product, and even more excited when I was selected to trial it! Like all new 'revolutionary' products I had high expectations but also geared myself up for the possibility that it just may not live up to claims. Because the bottle is clear and the product itself looks just like water it gives the impression of being very clean and natural. I really like the use of the pinks used on the lid and for the writing on the bottle, it makes it feel very girly and feminine. Because the product is such a watery consistency I worried that too much would pour out when I overturned the bottle, but the lid made it really easy to control the amount that came out and one gentle squeeze dispensed the right amount I needed. When using a cotton pad to clean my face with the product, it felt literally like water, even when cleaning around my eyes the product was so gentle and did not sting at all. I was really impressed with how easily all my make up wiped off my face, even my waterproof mascara came straight off without smudging or leaving anything behind. Afterwards my face felt very clean and fresh, my skin didn't feel as soft as it does after my usual cleanser because there is no moisturiser in it, but removed my make up so much better. I also had to use such a small amount of product that the bottle will last a long time.

Tips: Use at the end of the day to remove make up and cleanse your face then apply a night cream for mouisturisation.

works like a charm

i use this after i wash the make up off with a cleanser and for me, it manged to remove all the make up that was still left behind on my skin. It doesnt have a scent so its a perfect make up remover or people who doesnt like having any scent in their make up removers.

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.

Finally!

I was a bit iffy about using this product. Only because as i opened the lid there was no smell nothing. Most clensers and make up removers have that strong smell and you think yup this will work! I applied it to a cotton pad and proceeded to take my days make up off and wow, it did its job! My skin is soft and make up is removed with little effort and no scrubbing at all. Im definately going to continue using it as again, its sooooo easy and hassle free and one product not 3!

Better than makeup wipes

OMG I was so excited to be a part of this trial team as I have seen this product rated by many beauty gurus!!!.

This product is definitely a must as it is really light weight and non greasy. I love the way it makes my skin feel fresh and not tight- considering I have sensitive skin, which makes it perfect for sensitive skin users, like the product suggests.

I tested the micellar water by removing my very black, stubborn mascara (which usually runs all over my face when I try to wash it off) this product removed it effortlessly with two wipes- i used cotton balls.

I then removed my lipstick and it left my lips feeling soft with little effort.

This product is awesome for me as a makeup remover. Although I don't wear a full face of makeup daily, (I stick to lipstick and mascara for my everyday routine.) The Micellar water removes these beauty products with ease. I will for sure be adding the product to my beauty regime. I feel it better suits my skin than harsh makeup wipes. For the quantity and price it is recommendable :)

Tips: next time I am going to try cotton pads, I felt like the cotton balls were not as effiicent as it could be.

In a word, WOW

I have been anticipating the arrival of this baby for like my entire life. It's a pink bottle, it cleansers, everyone talks about it and I need it. Praise the lord I got invited into this trial team and I'm tellin' ya, it made my week.

First things first - it's the realest, realest. Seriously though this stuff is boss. It does absolutely everything it says it will. It 100% cleanses, removes makeup and soothes. YOU DON"T HAVE TO RUB. It's amazing. I've never tried something that cleanses so well.

I used makeup remover pads from Kmart ($3 for 200) and put a bit of the water on them then pulled the pad across my face gently and looked at it and my face had been transferred to the pad. I don't know how it does it but it literally takes off every aspect of your makeup. It feels so nice and cool on the skin. It doesn't sting my eyes at all ever. Which is pretty profound for a cleanser as I find most of them do sting my wee eyes. It looks as though it'll last a decent amount of time (maybe a few weeks depending on the amount of makeup you wear). It's cheap though so that doesn't matter - and I'm so pleased it's going to be sold at Countdown!

Overall, buy this stuff. If you've struggled finding a good cleanser then buy this stuff. If you've heard every man and his dog talking about it, buy this stuff. If you wear makeup, buy this stuff. If you have a face, buy this stuff. Just buy this stuff. Please. You won't regret it. xoxo

Tips: I wear a full face each day and I do go through about 5-6 makeup pads to take off my whole face with this. I'd suggest buying cheapie makeup remover pads because it's this product that's doing the job, not so much the pad so don't bother splashing out on them. Kmart, $3 for 200.

Works really well!

I've been dying to try the Micellar water after seeing people rave about it on Facebook and Twitter, and I was so delighted to get to trial it!

I love the bottle, it's simple but really pretty - with it's pink top and clear bottle/silver backing - it looks like magic in a bottle... and it works like magic too!

A couple of squirts onto a cotton pad, and some gentle massage is all it takes to remove all make-up - including Double Wear! I couldn't believe it at first, it just seemed too easy! But after going over the same cheek a second time with a cotton pad, there was no residue or anything left for me to remove :)

The best part for me was how my skin felt after use - there was none of the stinging or overly-dry feeling I've gotten in the past with wipes or other types of cleansers. My face felt clean without feeling overly clean, and I didn't feel like I needed to immediately moisturise.

I can understand the hype about this product - it is so easy to use and it works so well. The ease of use is, for me, a big selling point. I far prefer this over using wipes, and I really love how my face feels after use.

Easy peasy

This product is so easy to use. I'm sometimes guilty of being too lazy to clean my face at night. However, this product made it fast and simple. I love that there is no washing face clothes afterwards and that you can see the makeup instantly come smoothly off. It is economical coming in a 400ml bottle of which you only need 1/2 teaspoon for each clean. I tried this and found it adequately cleansed my face. I think I would use this as my default cleanser and travelling cleanser. For a more thorough or intensive clean I still prefer my antipodes butter cleanser. But there's no doubt about it..this cleanser is hassle free.

Tips: Make sure you have a supply of cotton pads to use each time you cleanse

Really love this

It does exactly what it claims to do. It was so effective at removing my make up, I was very surprised. It doesn't really have a scent, or not an overly noticeable one, which I love. Skin care SHOULD be simple, and not full of stuff like scents that it doesn't need.

It is used just like a toner, just apply to a cotton round and wipe. It did not leave my face tight or tingly or dry feeling, which I commonly get from various cleansers. I also did not notice any redness or irritation as I have sensitive skin, so it is a major concern. This product passed with flying colours for all my needs. So easy and so effective.

I love the large size bottle, but I would also like to see a smaller bottle for sale, as a travel/camping size.

Couldn't recommend enough!

To be honest, when I first heard about Cleansing Water I was a little sceptical - being essentially just water and having no scent. So as soon as it came in the mail, I was determined to try it. I put on some heavy eye liner, and as directed wiped my eyes with it. To be honest, I couldn't believe my eyes (literally); the eyeliner came of in just a few soft wipes. So, so far so good.

The next test was the next night after I had gone out with a full face of Make-up. I was excited to really give this cleanser a real go, and I was not disappointed. Other make-up removers I have used left my face, particularly eyes, greasy and shiny, red from rubbing and sore (particularly if some had gotten into my eyes accidentally). But this cleansing water was the complete opposite. My face and eyes felt fresh and as though I hadn't really even had make up on. There was no red-ness or grease, and it felt fantastic! I was able to take off all of my eye makeup and foundation etc so easily and I couldn't believe how fast it was either.

I also found it great to fix little mistakes when applying eye makeup. By putting a little on a cotton tip and dabbing the particular area of my eye, it easily removed the unwanted eyeliner, without really disturbing my eye shadow and getting all greasy - like what I had experienced in the past - and in turn ruining that whole eye's make up. With this I was able to fix the little mistakes without a hitch which was fantastic!

I love the fact that it natural and feels great on your skin - no smelly chemicals.

The easy-to-pour bottle is great, and it's awesome how you can simply pop it into your overnight bag if need be.

I will definitely continue to use this! Thanks Beauty Review for introducing me to this amazing new product! I will most definitely buy a new bottle once this has run out.
