Hello Beautiful,

Who doesn’t love to wear makeup and look beautiful? But, putting on makeup is not only the thing, removing it clearly is equally important. I can’t go into bed at night without removing my makeup and clearing the entire residue. So, today I am going to review the L’oreal  Paris micellar water, which I have bought from the store. I have been using this for more than 3 months and now I can’t wait more to share my experience with this product.

Price: NRs. 690 for 200ml

Product details:  A high performance, hypoallergenic cleansing water.

Product claims: Removes make-up purifies and soothes skin. Micellar water swiftly dissolves make-up and captures pore-clogging impurities in just one gentle action causing no stress to the skin.

Ingredients: Aqua/water,  Hexylene Glycol, Glycerin, Poloxamer 184, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Disodium EDTA, Polyaminopropyl  Biguanide.

 No alcohol and no perfume.

Application method: Apply using a cotton wool pad onto dry skin. Hold over the lashes, lids and lips for a few seconds, and then just sweep away. No need to rinse or rub. Use morning and evening.

Skin Type:  Suitable for all skin types, even for sensitive skin.

Shelf Life: 6 months from the date of PAO (Period after opening)

Packaging:  The product comes in a rectangular transparent plastic bottle with flip cover on top. There is a hole dispenser inside from which pouring the product is quite difficult.

Experience: When I first saw this product, I didn’t have such expectation that it would do something good to my skin. The product packaging is normal and the texture seems to be just like water with no fragrance at all. I used it by tapping a cotton pad and slightly swiping it over my face, it removes all the makeup and residue. I don’t use heavy makeup, so make up removes very easily, but for those who put on lots of make up, you should have to do few extra wipes to clear out your entire makeup.After using it, skin feels very clean and refreshed and also gives you a moisturized feeling. I used it twice a day, morning and evening and now it have been my regular cleansing routine. I use it not only for removing make up but also as a moisturize toner. So, beside make up remover I love it more as a soft cleanser. It does not break me out and skin feels soft after its application. But because of its packaging and large bottle, it’s really not a travel friendly, wish this would have come in a smaller bottle with spray headJ. And also it is very difficult to dispense the product from a hole dispenser.

This product is so light that you don’t have to worry about your skin even when you used this on a daily basis. I have a combination and sensitive skin and this product has totally worked for me.

Pros:

-Removes all make up and impurities

-Soften the skin

-Does not break out

-Cleanse skin without harsh rubbing

-Have no smell and harsh chemical

-Skin does not feel tight

-Work as a soft cleanser

Cons:

-Dispensing the product is difficult

-Packaging is not that portable

Overall: Mostly I love the fact that it is for sensitive skin and it really does what it claims, so I am already on my second bottle. I would recommend everyone to try this once with whatever skin tone you have since this is suitable for any skin type.

My Rating: 4.75/5

Experience: I bought this when I felt like my face was a bit drying and dirty because of travelling. Body shop has always been one of my favorite brands when it comes to skin and body care products. So I choose this cleanser which has vitamin E elements. I mostly use it when I have to travel, generally once a week. The product texture is whitish in color, soft and light with very mild fragrance. Before cleansing my whole face, I take a pea size in cotton pad and wipe off my eyes and lip area where we have lots of makeup because I don’t want to mess up make up all over my face while cleansing my face. After that I take a small portion and slightly massage my skin upwards and outwards until all my makeup seems clean and after that I wipe off with the cotton pad. I love the cool feeling it gave to my skin and how it makes my skin feel fresh, clean and soft. But the only drawback is that the effect does not last long, you have to use moisturizer after using this product or else it will make your skin dry after an hour. You can also apply this on a daily basis, as this cleanser is really mild and does not break you out on regular use.

My likes:

Does not break me out

Makes my skin clean and soft

Clean all impurities with small portion

Product packaging is quite cute and flip opening is really hygienic

The product is fragrance free and very mild

Contains Vitamin E

Non-greasy

My Dislikes:

Expensive (But last long)

The effect does not last long

Some Tips:  

While buying cleanser, for dry skin –avoid foaming cleanser and use cream based which moisturize and soothe your skin. For combination skin, you can use gel, lotion and use something that is very mild. For oily skin, use foaming or gel based formula and for sensitive or acne-pro skin, you fragrance free and preservatives ones.

Avoid using cleanser with alcohol, fragrance and parabens, as these chemicals are not good for the skin

Use that has essential oils and natural ingredients

Don’t rub your skin vigorously upwards and downward as you make loose the elasticity of your skin

Don’t forget to check the check the expiry date. ;)

Overall: I like this product, but wish this would have come in a smaller bottle as a travelling package.

My overall Rating: 4.5/5
