I've tried a few micellar waters so far and I have to conclude this is my favourite. I have sensitive skin, so I'm very cautious about what goes on my face - especially when it's a product I won't wash off. I've used micellar waters in the past that made my face sting a little, but for the most part this was lovely and gentle.
The one issue I did have with this (and the reason I haven't given it 5 stars) is because after mowing the lawn my hay-fever kicked in and I had to blow my nose a bunch of times. Then when I went to the bathroom to wash off I found the micellar water stung my nose - an issue I wouldn't have had with my cleansing oil.
However, as with all micellar waters this is a super fast, easy way to wash your face. And as a bonus, this product has a gentle floral fragrance that makes it a treat to use!
If you like the idea of micellar water but haven't found the one for you, this might be a winner!
I received this lovely (Large 400ml) bottle of Micellar Rose Water Clean & Glow to trial, which is enough for 200 uses!
The bottle is made of 20% recycled plastic, with lovely floral background, the cap is a flip top which is very secure and does not leak so is travelproof. The scent is a very gentle musky rose, which I really like.
I apply the rose water to my face via a cotton pad, on application, the water is slightly greasy but does a good job at removing makeup, especially eye makeup, - which is great knowing this is opthalmologically tested!
After cleansing, my skin felt clean and refreshed. This is not something I would reach for everyday, as due to my skin type being oily and prone to hormonal breakouts I do prefer to double cleanse using active ingredients, but this is great for a last overall cleanse, or to help remove eye makeup, or even travelling or camping. A great item to have on hand.
