Garnier Micellar Water with Rose Water and Glycerin, Facial Cleanser & Makeup Remover, All-in-1 Hydrating, 13.5 Fl Oz (400mL), 1 Count (Packaging May Vary)

Like no rinsing and all in one product. Good product.

TL;DR: Does what it promises; gently cleans thoroughly without harsh rubbing or harsh surfactants while nourishing & hydrating the skin.
You DO need to rinse it off though. The RoseWater & Waterproof ones are the best in the lineup. I’ve finished my second bottle and will be rebuying.

DOES WHAT IT PROMISES

Compared to the other micellar waters I’ve tried, it does seem to replace some of the hydration you lose from cleansing off your sebum & sweat

At the end of a day my skin will have some filth, sebum, eyeliner, eyebrow powder, mascara, tinted hybrid sunscreen & pore blurring primer on it.
It’s mild unlike harsh makeup wipes that tug at your skin & have tons of preservatives. All I need to do is soak both sides of a thick (“premium”) cotton pad with the solution and wipe with each side to get my face & neck clean. Then I’m ready to rinse with cool water and follow up with either a face wash or a wet microfiber makeup remover cloth (all micellar waters have surfactants that should be washed off the face)

The first step of my nightly skincare routine. After I finish cleaning I wipe my face with Stridex (toner) pads. The pad is always free of residue so I’m certain that this is cleaning effectively!

Note: The Rose water version will probably only be 4/5 stars for people who prefer to regularly wear very heavy makeup, waterproof makeup or water-resistant mineral sunscreens. Try Garnier’s waterproof version or one of Bioderma’s micellar water.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GOOD FOR VARIOUS SKIN TYPES

My skin type is combination
Lips & Chin = Dry
T-Zone & next to the nose = Oily
Rest of the face = Balanced/Normal

so I needed a makeup remover/pre-cleanser that’s compatible with my entire face and this fits the bill!
It sufficiently cleanses my oily areas without stripping the balanced areas and it keeps my dry areas hydrated

I mainly use this on my face & neck and it’s works just as well on both areas.
My face is acneic and normal-resilient. My neck is acne-free and normal-sensitive.

I felt the need to test the acidity of this product before saying it won’t sensitize your skin because many people experience irritation or barrier damage from regularly using cleansers & toners. The healthiest skin has a pH no higher than 5.0. It appears this Micellar Rose Water has a pH right between 4.5 & 5.0 (see picture) so you don’t have to worry about it altering your skin’s healthy acidity level.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A GREAT ADDITION TO THE LINE UP

I’ve tried the “All-in-1 Waterproof” version (Clear bottle, Blue Cap) & it’s the best if you want a deep clean very quickly. IIRC it leaves a bit more product residue, lacks skin nourishing additives & doesn’t hydrate; so it’s not the best choice for everyone.

The “All-in-1 Mattifying” version (Clear Bottle, Green Cap) I can’t recommend. Acne prone individuals may gravitate towards it because it reduces shine, oil & bacteria temporarily but; none of the ingredients “purify pores” and using tons of denatured alcohol on your face daily is not great for your lipid barrier. People with super oily skin should probably buy one of the other micellar waters and use it as their first cleanser then wash off the residue with a foaming cleanser, benzoyl peroxide cleanser or a salicylic acid cleanser.

The “All-in-1 Brightening” version (Translucent Yellow Bottle, Yellow Cap) is okay but vitamin c needs to be on your skin for at least 30 minutes before being washed off to brighten skin or lighten pigment and you’re absolutely not supposed to regularly leave micellar water on your face for more than a couple minutes.

The “All-in-1 Sensitive” version (Clear Bottle, Pink Cap) is the most similar to this one in my experience. I would recommend it for people with sensitive skin that isn’t prone to roughness nor dehydration.

The nourishing ingredients added to this Rose water version of the product makes it a stand out!

Propanediol is a good humectant & emollient making it good for dehydrated skin conditions. It also boosts the effectiveness of things like salicylic acid.
Glycerin is also an amazing humectant.
Rosa damascena flower water may have skin conditioning, antimicrobial, antioxidant & anti-inflammatory benefits making it great for both dry & acneic skin.
Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is a good cleansing surfactant for keeping your skin clean but it’s very mild compared to others making it good for sensitized skin.
Salicylic acid slows how quickly acne bacteria reproduces & purifies the pores.

The Garnier SkinActive micellar water line up needed this product.

This product smells like rose and I personally like that. It makes my skin feel clean, it’s a great way to double cleanse. It does remove makeup, however it can burn your eyes a bit. I saw there is salicylic acid in it and that is why. I might try something different in the future for removing my eye makeup.

Love this product. Removes make up. Doesnt leave a film or sticky residue on my face. Feels so clean after use and doesnt dry out my skin. Skin feels refreshed and hydrated after i use it. I can apply make up on after itt dries m and hasnt changed my effect with my makeup. This is my favorite to temove eye makeup. Soft n gentle.

I really like this particular micellar water. I use it everyday to wipe down my face, neck, and chest when I get home from the gym. It does remove makeup. If I’m wearing a full-face, I’ll sometimes use another cleanser first and then follow-up with the micellar. Other times, I use the micellar alone. Either time, it gets the job done. I haven’t tried it on waterproof mascara, but it easily removes everything else. My husband also uses it and likes that it doesn’t need to be rinsed off. Good purchase.
