MICELLAR WATER | Garner SkinActive Pink Micellar Cleansing Water

Fragrance free

 I recently noticed I have a bad case of forgetting to review stuff when you use it everyday

I've had this for maybe a year, possibly longer, and I mostly use it to remove eye or lip makeup, which is probably why it's lasted me so long.

I am not a micellar water for face makeup girl, I feel like it doesn't remove face makeup as well compared to makeup removing cleansers or cleansing oils. But the Garnier is decent for lip and eye makeup. Admittedly, I don't think this is AMAZING for makeup removal, because sometimes I have to go over my lips twice to get rid of all the lipstick. But for eye makeup it seems ok, definitely good for sensitive skin.

I've used this on occasion for my face as a refresher or get rid of oil, it makes my skin feel pretty refreshed.

I got a small sample of the Bioderma so we'll see if Bioderma is worth the price.

I think if you're into micellar water, this is definitely worth a try as I think it is better than the Simple Micellar Water.

Verdict

I enjoy using this as a makeup remover when I don't want to wash my face yet. It doesn't remove every trace of face makeup unless you go over your face at least twice. I usually soak the cotton pad in the micellar water, use one side of the cotton pad, then go over it again with the other side. 

I've seen Ingrid and other Youtubers say you can use this instead of a cleanser in the morning, but for oily skinned girls like me, my face still feels a bit icky and I'd rather have the comfort of cleaning my face with water and a cleanser. I think I'd like this a lot as a toner, but I have too many toners right now so I'll just use it on occasion to remove makeup.

Repurchase?

Yes.

Would I recommend it?

Yes, but I will try other micellar waters to see the difference
