I was thrilled to trial the new Garnier Micellar Gel Skin Wash, as I have been a fan of Micellar water for years now.
I was really surprised how thoroughly this cleanser removes my makeup, whether standing at the vanity or washing my face in the shower it's really easy to use and the pump makes it hassle free. While this gel cleanser does provide a good clean, I still feel that I need to use a second cleanse such as a treatment wash and a makeup remover for my eyes to finish the job.
While I don't have sensitive skin, I did experience a break out on the 6th day of using this. Whether this was related or not it was still interesting to report.
All in all I will continue to use this gel wash for its effectiveness, and non fragrant scent.
I like using Micellar (even though i'm not convinced i'm saying it right). So when the opportunity came up to trial this new innovation (in a new innovation) I was in.
So it's a Gel Wash which for me means i'll use it in the shower as opposed to the Water version which you use outside of the shower.
The bottle is a clear bottle with clear liquid (reminds me abit of hand sanitiser actually) and hurrah..it has a PUMP! (so we're already kinda friends).
Claims to remove Make Up and soothe and Cleanse the skin.
It is very 'gel' like when you apply it but then when you rub it in it turns into a slight foam. Gotta say it removed every speck of my make up after one was and (here's the acid test) it did NOT leave my skin feeling tight. My skin was left feeling super supple and once i'd put my moisturiser on - va va va boom! Glowy, glowy, glowy skin.
Over all a great basic for me and I think i'll get my teenage daughter to start using it as it will be perfect for her.
Only thing I marked it slightly down down on, (which is a little bit unfair as it is actually a positive), is that it is fragrance free. I like my cleansers to have a fragrance but if you've got super sensitive skin then it will be perfect for you.
Tips: It's a pretty reasonable price and a decent size bottle. I reckon i'll get at least 4 weeks use out of this. Give it a go.
