L'Oreal Paris Skincare Micellar Cleansing Water Complete Cleanser to Remove Makeup, Gentle Cleanser, Makeup Remover, 13.5 Fl Oz

UPDATE 7/28: I now have both the blue cap and pink cap. I use the pink one to remove regular stuff, and the blue for the tougher stuff. My same long wear lipstick didn't come off with the with pink, but with the blue again only took 3 swipes! Seriously I am floored!! Just make sure you shake vigorously to mix it evenly. Wow. I think I may have found my holy grail makeup remover! I used it for the first time on a "full glam" face as I went to a pretty important event. I'm talking long wear cream eye shadow, long wear 24 hour liquid lipstick, and a double dose of setting pray. The whole nine-yards. And this stuff took care of it all. This bottle (blue cap) is bi-phase, so it has the oil looking stuff (no it's not oil) floating at the top of the bottle. It did not feel greasy, or heavy at all. For my eye makeup I held a soaked cotton round over my eye for a few seconds and I would say 85% of it came off with the first few swipes. Even my mascara. No eyelash loss either. It also did not sting my eyes. Then I did the residual clean up with another soaked piece of cotton. The thing that literally made me say "WOW" out loud, was my lipstick removal. I have been wearing the same stuff for years and it stays all day/night with zero transfer, but it can be a pain to get every last trace of it removed. In just three swipes, my lipstick was gone! And no heavy rubbing or scrubbing! I am TOTALLY sold on this stuff! I ended up using it all over my face to remove everything else, and it felt lightweight and clean, but "a bit much" for my face. I did use my Simple Brand Micellar to fully clean everything off as I prefer my anti-aging face cream. But I'm sure this would be great for those with dry skin to just leave as is and go to bed. WONDERFUL PRODUCT! Make sure you shake well each time you pour it.

I have moderately dry skin and this is one of the most amazing products for my skin type that I have ever used. Previously, I was using the three-step system by Clean and Clear including face wash, toner, and moisturizer. However, though this worked well, it cost quite a bit (about $7 per product). Also, if I used just the face wash by itself, it would absolutely destroy my skin's natural oil balance. I tried this product to see if I could consolidate my skin care routine down to one step, and this has proven to be the perfect option. Through Subscribe and Save, I get this product for around $7 (as opposed to $21 total for my old products) and I imagine the 400 mL will last me at least two months with twice-a-day use. This has kept my skin clear, dewy, and soft without over-drying which is a HUGE benefit for me. Most products painfully dry my skin and cause flaking. I feel so clean after using this. I use it with cotton rounds twice a day, once after my morning shower and once right before bed. Not to mention it saves me at least 10 minutes from my old skin care routine! I also love that the formula is mild enough to wipe over my eyes and lips without burning or having to use a separate product for sensitive areas. I will add a caveat saying that I do not use this for makeup removal so I have no idea how well it works for that purpose. This is definitely the perfect product for my skin type and I will continue to use it for as long as I can!

This stuff takes off my mascara AND eyelash primer. Primer is like super glue for mascara. That stuff is HARD to get off lashes. With this product, there’s no pulling or tugging on the sensitive skin around eyes. I just use a cotton round, coat it and lay the round on my lashes for 20-30 seconds to soak a little. Then I GENTLY rub the mascara and primer right off. Works great!! This does leave a bit of an oily residue that Im not fond of but it’s not a deal breaker. I simply rinse it off. No big deal. I’m left with fresh clean eyes and no irritation. I’ve not used this on the rest of my face so I have no comment on how it works or feels on the rest of my skin. I specifically bought this in hopes it removed my “glue” lash primer. Also, there’s a separation in the bottle. Make sure you shake it well before use.

I am a Loreal supporter and wear alot of makeup products. This is my first use of the make up remover with waterproof. The product does indicate free of oils but i did not see this to be true. It is pretty oily however for me it is more important that it takes my mascara off and it does. Better than any other product in the same value range. I will buy this product again

Always does the best cleaning especially on my waterproof mascara without leaving an oily film. Love this cleanser!

When I ran out of my Simple micellar water, I wanted to try something new and this was highly rated on Beautypedia. After using this for 1 week, I came to the conclusion that it’s more of a makeup remover, than a cleanser in my opinion. I use the Neutrogena liquid makeup remover for my eye makeup and this feels identical to that. In the past, I used the Simple micellar water after cleansing with my Clarisonic and Origins checks and balances cleanser. It was more just to remove any residual makeup that the previous steps didn’t remove. It left my skin feeling hydrated and clean, but not squeaky clean and ready for my skincare regimen. When I use the L’Oreal micellar water in the same way, it leaves an oily film on my skin that doesn’t go away. I have to tissue off the excess residue and then apply my skincare, which isn’t a big deal, but it’s not as hydrating as the Simple one either. I will continue to use it and finish it up, but will not be repurchasing.

I bought this because I needed something to remove waterproof mascara during the summer. I don’t know how it can both remove waterproof mascara and cleanse my skin so thoroughly, but it does. it took off the waterproof mascara with a little effort. It does a great job of getting my foundation off before I wash with another cleanser. In a pinch, it does a great job of a quick cleanse before falling into bed. Make sure to shake the bottle thoroughly to mix the top in the bottom.

The blue-capped bottle is for removing waterproof mascara - it very slightly oily - just shake it up before using. The pink-capped does as good a job on mascara, I just keep the cotton pad on my eyelid for a couple seconds. Both types are Wonderful - and way less oily than Garnier. And no, I didn't get paid for this review. (-
