There are so many products out there that we’re told we need to try right now. But something that’s worth taking the wallet out for? Micellar water. Continue reading for why you need this product in your life and skincare routine.
Micellar water has been a game-changer for me. It’s a skincare staple I can’t live without. Thankfully, Garnier has all the goods.
Micellar water is gentle yet effective enough to remove stubborn eye makeup. Garnier’s SkinActive Micellar Water line is super affordable and they have a variety to choose from based on your specific preference.
These micellar waters go for just $8.99 for a 13.05 oz bottle. You can pick them up at Ulta Beauty or online!
Basically, micellar water is a multi-purpose product because it can remove makeup, cleanse and refresh your skin.
Garnier’s SkinActive Micellar Water is available in three different coloured bottles. There is pink (Original Micellar Water), blue (Waterproof Micellar Water) and green (Mattifying Micellar Water).
To be honest, I’m a fan of all three Garnier Micellar Water’s because they serve different purposes for me.
Garnier SkinActive Micellar Water (Pink)
This is a great product because it’s formulated for all skin types. When my face normalizes, I like to use this one and it’s great for sensitive skin. What I love about this product is it’s super low maintenance. You don’t have to rinse or rub harshly—just a simple swipe of a cotton pad and you’re good to go.
Garnier SkinActive Micellar Water All-In-1 Mattifying (Green)
This bottle is great for those with oily skin. Because my skin goes from normal to oily, I like to use this one to mattify things out. It’s specially formulated to effectively cleanse, remove makeup and help purify pores. It’s like a magnet as the micelles capture and lifts away dirt, oil and makeup.
Garnier SkinActive Micellar Water All-In-1 Waterproof (Blue)
I reach for my blue bottle of micellar water when I’m wearing my waterproof makeup. This bottle is specially formulated to effectively dissolve waterproof makeup while leaving the skin cleansed and refreshed. It’s powerful yet gentle enough to dissolve stubborn and long-wearing makeup without over-drying the skin.
And last but definitely not least, I’ve been absolutely loving the Garnier SkinActive Facial Mist. This facial mist is made with rose water. It instantly hydrates and refreshes your skin, even while makeup is on.
You can use this facial spray as a moisturizer to hydrate, before face makeup as a primer, after makeup to set it and even anytime throughout the day to refresh your skin. I love a good facial mist any day but I’m all about one with rose water. And, this smells so fresh and lovely.
