Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil 400ml

I thought I found my go to Micellar Water ( that is Garnier) but with beauty junkies it is not easy and we really love trying out new products. I decided to get Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil as it was on special... with the reasoning, if I don't like it at least I didn't pay the full prize ( which is very reasonable anyway for such a big bottle). Well, I love it! And the factor that makes me really love it is the scent of the product! I love lightly fragranced beauty products and to know that this lovely scent does not irritate my skin ( or my eyes) is great. It makes the make up removal process so much more pleasant. I love the Micellar Water, do not get me wrong, but this Water in Oil brings in something extra. \nIt looks like there is not much oil in the ... MoreI thought I found my go to Micellar Water ( that is Garnier) but with beauty junkies it is not easy and we really love trying out new products.

I love the Micellar Water, do not get me wrong, but this Water in Oil brings in something extra. \nIt looks like there is not much oil in the bottle, but after you shake up the product the ingredients mix and the both the water and oil are used up equally. I must say Water in Oil is extremely effective in removing make up, I do not use any waterproof mascaras, but I have got one Italian mascara that is so difficult to take off. This product makes it so much easier. I must say it is very gentle too, I wear contact lenses and I need something that has been tested and I can trust Garnier in that matter. Even the addition of the scent didn't change my tolerance. \nI must say that this Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil is one of very few products that deliver what they promise. Highly recommend for everyone! A beautiful product.\n

Garnier Micellar Water in Oil is the holy grail of Micellar waters. I have been using Micellar products for about a year now, after seeing Carrie Bickmore's ad for Garnier and seeing how easily and effortlessly the makeup is removed. It had me so curious, I just had to try it.\n\nThe generous sized bottle is huge, so it will last you ages. Now you start by lightly shaking the bottle, this will mix the water and oil layers. Apply the water to cotton pads, and now the fun begins. I recommend using separate cotton pads for your eyes and face, they will get so much makeup on them, you don't want to get mascara on your skin. I would say 2 pads for your face and one for eyes, depending of course, on how much makeup you have on. Even on days when I have just used BB cream, ... MoreGarnier Micellar Water in Oil is the holy grail of Micellar waters.

I have previously really enjoyed using Garnier’s Micellar Water range and have found them to be great affordable cleansers that are gentle and effective at removing makeup. I found this to be a bit different to the original version given that it is a dual-phase water with oil product. It is necessary to give the product a good shake before applying so that it is mixed well and the oil droplets are dispersed throughout. I have combination skin and found that it was gentle and removed makeup quite effectively. I apply a generous amount on a cotton pad and all it takes is a couple of swipes to remove all my makeup with ease (including long wearing foundation!). I don’t generally wear mascara, but I found that the cleanser removed eyeshadow and eyeliner without stinging ... MoreI have previously really enjoyed using Garnier’s Micellar Water range and have found them to be great affordable cleansers that are gentle and effective at removing makeup.

I apply a generous amount on a cotton pad and all it takes is a couple of swipes to remove all my makeup with ease (including long wearing foundation!). I don’t generally wear mascara, but I found that the cleanser removed eyeshadow and eyeliner without stinging the sensitive eye area. Overall it removed makeup easily without rubbing or tugging at the skin, however it did leave a bit of an oil film behind. This was not much of an issue for me as I generally double cleanse, and follow with a cream cleanser after using this to remove makeup. The product does have a slight ‘fresh’ scent to it, which I found quite pleasant however, if you are sensitive to scented products this may not be for you. It is a great formulation, at a very reasonable price and comes in a large bottle that will last quite a while. \n \nPROS\n- Removes makeup easily (including long lasting) \n- Economical and reasonably priced\n- Innovative water-in-oil formula which is gentle on the skin\n \nCONS\n- The product is scented which may not suit all preferences\n- I found it gave me the best results when using a ‘double – cleanse’ routine which may not suit all preferences \n

I am pleasantly surprised with the quality and effectiveness of the Garnier Micellar Water in Oil cleanser. I have tried numerous cleansing water brands in the past and some have cost more than $50 a bottle! So I am very pleased to find a product that not only does a very thorough job of removing my makeup but is also inexpensive. This cleansing water comes in a fairly large plastic bottle so it lasts for quite some time. Unlike the regular cleansing waters I have tried, this one has a 2 phase formula; the micellar water at the bottom and a smaller layer of oil at the top. Therefore you need to shake the bottle well before using the cleansing water in order to activate the oil and water layers. I primarily wear long-wearing and matte makeup, especially at this time ... MoreI am pleasantly surprised with the quality and effectiveness of the Garnier Micellar Water in Oil cleanser.

Therefore you need to shake the bottle well before using the cleansing water in order to activate the oil and water layers. I primarily wear long-wearing and matte makeup, especially at this time of the year, yet I find if I soak two cotton pads with this cleansing water it is enough to remove all the makeup from my face. This product has a pleasant fragrance, which I don't find irritating even when I use it around my eyes. I find that it does a really good job removing all my makeup in one, quick sweep so I don't need to use a separate eye makeup remover for my heavy mascara. This definitely makes the product very handy as it's an effective all-in-one makeup remover that quickly removes makeup without excess rubbing required. I am generally a bit lazy when it comes to removing all my makeup so I find this makeup remover very handy and easy to use to remove stubborn makeup with minimal effort. This product does leave an oily residue on the skin, so I do need to use my foaming cleanser afterwards as I have combination skin. I really recommend this cleanser to anyone who wants a quick, yet effective makeup remover that gets rid of heavy or stubborn makeup without too much effort. It is quite handy as you don't need to purchase separate or multiple other makeup removers to use around the eye area. I also recommend this product for all skin types, however people with very oily skin may not like the oily residue or greasy feel. Also this cleansing water does have a slightly strong fragrance, and although it doesn't irritate my skin I would still prefer a fragrance-free formula. I will repurchase this cleansing water as I think it does a great job removing my long-wearing makeup very quickly and thoroughly, also it is quite inexpensive and great value for money.

Garnier Micellar Water in oil was a win for me!\n\nJust couple of months ago I have been introduced to micellar waters and have tried a few, one of them being the classic Garnier micellar water. This one, the 'hybrid' as I call it, outperforms them all! \n\nIt was super easy to use: remember always to shake well the bottle before applying the product on the cotton pad (or reusable fabric makeup pads) to mix oil and the water. If removing the eye makeup, just hold a bit there the soaked pad with Garnier Micellar Water in Oil and then gently wipe off. This gem takes off also waterproof makeup with ease! \n\nThe formula is designed even for sensitive skin, and it was so gentle. It does contain perfume as the last ingredient, and as such it did not cause any issues for ... MoreGarnier Micellar Water in oil was a win for me!\n\nJust couple of months ago I have been introduced to micellar waters and have tried a few, one of them being the classic Garnier micellar water.

If removing the eye makeup, just hold a bit there the soaked pad with Garnier Micellar Water in Oil and then gently wipe off. This gem takes off also waterproof makeup with ease! \n\nThe formula is designed even for sensitive skin, and it was so gentle. It does contain perfume as the last ingredient, and as such it did not cause any issues for my super sensitive combo crazy skin. The scent is mild, reminds me on baby shower gels/oils scent. Not powdery, but tiny bit floral and summer sweet.\n\nAfter removing my makeup, the skin was silky, not oily. The product did remove all my makeup off, also everything else without any stripping. Love that I do not have to use more products (as before: micellar water first, then oil cleanser), but just one to remove everything. If using skincare regime that requres layering (serums, cream, treatments) I do recommend rinsing the face well with water after using this product. Just to make sure the absorption is optimal. If not, and having young skin, there is no even need to rinse it off if in a rush. \n\nThe bottle is huge 400ml, so I did share it with my friend and a family member to try it and see if it suits them, so they can decide to purchase it as well. I think this is the most effective and fast makeup/dirt/spf removal formula so far I have tried. Best part: it is so affordable!!!

Up until now, I had thought that all micellar waters were created equal and that for the most part they performed pretty much the same. That is, until I trialed the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil. This stuff is like liquid gold (but thankfully not expensive)! \nAt first glance it doesn’t seem like there is much oil in the bottle, but after you shake it, the oil dispenses evenly. I then squirt a small amount onto a cotton pad and wipe over my face. The inclusion of the Argan oil means that it can breakdown and remove the most stubborn of makeup easily (I’m looking at you, waterproof mascara and liner!), but it doesn’t leave a greasy residue or dry out the skin. In fact, it makes your skin feel incredibly soft after use. I’m a big fan of the double-cleanse ... MoreUp until now, I had thought that all micellar waters were created equal and that for the most part they performed pretty much the same.

I’m a big fan of the double-cleanse method (which means I still like to cleanse my skin twice to ensure all makeup and grime is gone), but this does a great job at removing the surface makeup. It smells lovely as well!\nIt’s affordable, too! A 400ml bottle costs $14.95 and contains 200 uses. Combined with the fact that you don’t need to follow up with a separate waterproof makeup remover, this a very cost effective cleansing option. I also like that it has a flip-top lid and that the dispensing hole isn’t huge, so there isn’t any product wastage.\nThe only word of warning I have is to make sure you do shake the bottle before use. I forgot to do this once, and since the oil sits at the top of the bottle until, I wiped mostly Argan oil around my eyes and it did sting slightly. \nHighly recommend!

I really like Garnier products so I was eager to try the Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil when I needed to replenish my bottle of micellar water because I use micellar water every single day. \n\nI love how the colours of the packaging match the oil in the bottle, and the tiny hole in the flip-top lid allows for only a small amount of the product to be dispensed. I’ve used this type of product before in an eye makeup remover – one where there is oil mixed with something else and a good shake is needed to mix the products before using it. \n\nMy normal cleansing routine is to wipe off my eye makeup with a cotton pad soaked in micellar water; sweep a makeup wipe across my face to remove most of my foundation and then clean up my entire face with micellar water on a ... MoreI really like Garnier products so I was eager to try the Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil when I needed to replenish my bottle of micellar water because I use micellar water every single day. \n\nI love how the colours of the packaging match the oil in the bottle, and the tiny hole in the flip-top lid allows for only a small amount of the product to be dispensed.

The product is very soothing, does not cause any irritation or redness to my skin or eyes, and is not at all greasy. \n\nAll in all, I would recommend the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water in Oil because it leaves my skin feeling really clean, fresh and nourished. \n\n

The product: \nGARNIER SkinActive - Micellar Oil-infused Cleansing Water (400 mL bottle)\n \nMy verdict:\nMy sister recommended this makeup remover/cleanser to me as I have dry skin and most regular makeup removes leave my skin feeling stripped and dry. This is in fact an “oil-based” cleansing water, and specifies it is designed to be used on the eyes, face and lips. The product is like your regular “micellar” cleansing waters that are very popular at the moment, but this one also contains Argan Oil to add extra moisture to the skin. The product reminds me of the dual phase eye makeup removers that you need to shake before use, and is designed to remove stubborn waterproof makeup, like mascara and liquid eyeliners etc. The product comes in a very sturdy plastic ... MoreThe product: \nGARNIER SkinActive - Micellar Oil-infused Cleansing Water (400 mL bottle)\n \nMy verdict:\nMy sister recommended this makeup remover/cleanser to me as I have dry skin and most regular makeup removes leave my skin feeling stripped and dry.

The product reminds me of the dual phase eye makeup removers that you need to shake before use, and is designed to remove stubborn waterproof makeup, like mascara and liquid eyeliners etc. The product comes in a very sturdy plastic bottle with a flip lip and the cap clicks shut tightly so there is luckily no product spillage. The bottle is a decent and generous size so I anticipate it would last me a long time to finish this (I don’t wear heavy makeup). My skin is dry therefore I don’t find the oil-based formula too greasy for my skin; I find this helps the cleanser glide over my skin and really picks up all the makeup, dirt and grime thoroughly. This is a key positive point, as I hate continuously having to rub my face and eyes with cotton pads just so that I can get rid of my makeup. This product actually does a pretty good job of getting rid of my foundation, lipstick and mascara without excessive effort. The first time I used this cleanser, I was so impressed with how quickly it seemed to dissolve and remove my makeup. It seemed to just wipe all the makeup of my skin in a flash!! After the first application of this cleanser I actually looked at the cotton pad and WOW it had completed removed my foundation in one quick application - very impressive! My only major criticism is the very strong fragrance; I really find it too overpowering and it tends to linger for a long time. This fragrance did unfortunately sting my nose and eyes, so this makes it a bit difficult for me to be completely impressed and pleased with this product. Which is a shame as it does a great job removing makeup and leaves my dry skin feeling nourished and soft. I don’t mind the oily residue that it leaves behind as other cleansers leave my skin feeling dry, tight and uncomfortable. So that is not an issue for me at all, but might be an issue for people with oily skin.\n \nRecommendations: \nI recommend this makeup remover/cleanser to those who have normal to dry or very dry skin. If you have sensitive skin, and in particular to products that are heavily perfumed then I don’t recommend this product. My skin is not sensitive, yet I found the fragrance in this product too irritating. I also recommend this product to those who like to wear heavy, waterproof or long-wearing makeup, as it quickly dissolves and removes stubborn makeup without much effort. \n \nRepurchase: \nNo. I will not repurchase this product, simply because the fragrance is just too strong and lingers for a long time even after you wash your face with another cleanser afterwards! What a disappointment as I really liked the nourishing and moisturising feel of this cleanser, and was impressed that Argan Oil is included in the ingredients.\n\nAnyway I will continue looking for a product that is less irritating on my skin…\n\n

I love using micellar water so you can imagine my excitement when Garnier came out with Micellar Water In Oil! I expected that it would be great at removing waterproof makeup and it does indeed does a great job at removing any makeup that I wear, including waterproof mascara. It comes in a huge bottle and is so affordable because you get so many uses out of it. Mine lasted me months! It has a simple packaging with a tiny opening so you can just shake and pour out the product onto any cotton pads, then swipe it across your face and it will remove any dirt, makeup, impurities on your skin.\nHowever, because it has oil in the product, I feel like it left a layer of oil on my skin after removing my makeup. They say that it is a no wash formula, but I don't really enjoy ... MoreI love using micellar water so you can imagine my excitement when Garnier came out with Micellar Water In Oil!

They say that it is a no wash formula, but I don't really enjoy feeling there is a layer of residue on my skin so I usually double cleanse it with a gentle cleanser afterwards. It is also really great to remove the sebum and dirt from the face but I would still rinse it off with a cleanser. Overall, I prefer the original version over this, maybe because I do use micellar water to clean my skin in the morning as well. For makeup removal, this is a great product because it removes waterproof makeup more easily than the Original version. It also makes my eyes slightly blurry if it gets into my eyes accidentally. I think it depends on your preference but for me, this is still a great makeup remover!\n

I have used Garnier Micellar water for sensitive skin in the past. I was so excited to try this new product as I have dry skin.\n \nGarnier Micellar Water in Oil comes in a transparent 400 ml bottle with flip top function which is very easy to use. I can see that inside the bottle water is separated from oil, it is only on the top layer of the product, I need to shake it well before use. It has pleasant smell which I can still feel after few minutes of application. The consistency is between water and oil, it is not watery neither greasy.

Surprisingly all my make up removes in a single attempt. One gentle swipe is enough to remove makeup, even my long lasting eye liner and mascara removes quickly. \n \nGarnier Micellar Water in Oil is very gentle on my skin and eyes, it does not irritate. My skin feels soft and clean after each use. It leaves a thin greasy layer on my face which is ok for me. In addition this greasy layer prevents my dry skin from stripping and dehydration. The instructions say that I do not need to wash my face with water after usingthis. Usually I like to wash my face after taking off my makeup. Still at some days when I am so tired, I do not bother to wash, I only use this product and it works great individually. My skin feels clean and hydrated after each use, it does not make my skin dry and tight.\n \nI have used it for the last few weeks and I found that it is great to remove all kind of make up including long lasting foundation, lipstick, water proof mascara, eyeliner etc. Due to its unique formula, I do not need to rube several time, a gentle swipe is enough to remove long lasting makeup. \n.\nOverall, I like Garnier Micellar Water in Oil, it makes my makeup removing activity easy, efficient and quick. It is great for all skin types specially for those who use water proof and long lasting make up. I highly recommend it for time poors too, It really saves time and energy at the end of the day.\n
