Hello lovelies, I hope you all are having a great Easter weekend! I have been using this Micellar water for a few months now and I absolutely love it. As I mentioned before I didn't get on very well with other Micellar waters that I had tried out so when a new version with argan oil launched not that long ago by Garnier, I had to purchase one. My skin is quite sensitive so I have to be careful on what I use as anything could cause it to break out or develop some sort of rash. So I was a little sceptical about trying this and I made sure that I read some reviews on it beforehand to see what other people thought about it. This Micellar water was designed for sensitive and dry skin and the first thing that caught my eye was the fact it was an oil-infused cleansing water and the layer of oil that sits on the top.
Like I mentioned, this product is targeted towards people who have dry or sensitive skin, which many people suffer from. It is really effective at taking off my makeup even waterproof makeup such as mascara. It's effortless to use as it doesn't pull or drag at the skin around my eyes. It doesn't irritate or sting my eyes in any way like some other makeup removers or wipes do and it leaves your skin feeling fresh and so smooth. I have also noticed that you don't need to wash your face afterwards as it doesn't leave any kind of sticky or greasy residue. My skin doesn't feel tight or sore after using this product, instead it feels soft and smooth.
Using this cleansing water is super easy, all you have to do is shake up the bottle first to make sure that the layer of oil on top mixes with the Micellar water well. I then take a large oval cotton pad and squeeze a small amount onto it and then gentle move this across my face. I like to use the large oval cotton pads as they cover a large area of my face at once. This Micellar water removes all makeup and that's including waterproof makeup and leaves your face fresh and cleansed. What I love so much about this Micellar water compared to the other ones that I have tried is that it doesn't sting my skin or eyes, doesn't break me out and it combines makeup removal, moisturising and cleansing all in one, which is perfect if you are like me and feeling lazy
The bottle of Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water claims that there are 200 uses inside, that makes this product an excellent high street buy but even if I only get half of that I would be happy given the low price. I am currently sharing this with my mum, as she tried it out after me and fell in love with it too, so it will definitely not last that long!
On my first impression, I loved the packaging which looks sleek and also functional by having the flip top lid that allows controlled dispensing of the product. The goldish orange colour on the packaging matches the oil that is inside. I also like the fact that the packaging is a clear plastic bottle so that you can see how much is remaining. The packaging clearly shows that the Garnier Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water is targeted towards those with sensitive and dry skin and based on the ingredients I think that this is a perfect choice for someone who wants something that won't irritate their skin. At £5.99 for a generously sized 400ml I think this is such a bargain. The original Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water is only £4.99 but I believe that for an extra £1 you are getting a brilliant product that is definitely worth it and is good value for money. Garnier is often on offer either in Superdrug, Boots or even Asda, so you can get it even cheaper. I purchased this from Boots which is nationwide so I am pretty sure that you could get hold of one.
All in all, this Micellar Water has become an essential part of my skincare routine and I don't think I will be using anything wlse to take my makeup off. By using this, it makes it so easy and effortless to take off all my makeup without my skin hurting or my eyes stinging. I absolutely love this and it has changed my life! Also, it is only £5.99 which I think is a bargain considering how much you get and how long it lasts.
