I picked this baby up for around $6 or $7 at my local CVS. I was initially drawn to the packaging and the cotton scent, as fresh laundry/linen scents are some of my favorite of all time. After letting this sit around in my collection for a while, I finally busted this bad boy open. It was a little difficult to get open at first but once I did, I fell in love.

This micellar water has a nice, light linen scent and takes off dirt, oil and makeup like a breeze. It also has the nicest pump that you can push down on with a cotton round and come up saturated then be able to wipe off makeup like a breeze. This leaves my skin clean feeling and refreshed. There’s not much to say other than if you’re in the market for a really fantastic micellar water with a fantastic pump, I’d give this one a go!

This is a post I made a while ago in my previous blog. I moved my ramblings here because I wanted a more free format to talk about all things fashion and beauty. I thought I would share with all my friends here on WordPress.

I’m gonna be honest-I was so excited for these! I hadn’t yet jumped on the micellar water trend and I’ve been really interested in skin care lately so I thought this was the perfect opportunity.

These are good sized cloths, but they’re not very damp-which is something I’ve come to prefer in a makeup wipe.

These were so tough on my skin, I really had to rub. These barely took off my eyeshadow, forget about my waterproof mascara, even when saturated in water.

I’ve had a bottle of the Garnier waterproof micellar sitting in my closet unopened, so I cracked it open and put a little on the cloths, now that stuff was magical-especially for my waterproof mascara!

All in all I’d say these are a pass. They just don’t perform the job they’re designed to do adequately. Save the your skin and money and look elsewhere!
