Feels like a standard micellar water. Has a nice fragrance, but I would prefer it to have no fragrance. It's good at removing eye makeup (with cotton wool pads) and is everything I wanted the...

BEWARE - after using just few times I had an extremely bad allergic reaction. Swollen face, eyes, redness, itchy rash. I had to go to urgent care for steroid IV. Not gentle and certainly not...

I have dry eczema sensitive skin and this micellar water worked fine for me, I used it mornings and evenings to take of my makeup. It did not irritate or burn my skin at all. I usually use Garnier...

I got a small bottle in Atlanta last month and love it! Better than Garnier but more expensive. Gentle on eyes and gets waterproof mascara off effortlessly!! I like this more than Bioderma too.

This is a very decent makeup remover, although I still prefer Bioderma's Sensibio or Sebium.

At first, this felt very nice going on my skin, although I immediately noticed the strong fragrance. Several minutes later, my face was bright red. Even after washing my face with my regular gentle...

I'm on my third bottle of this. I bought this by mistake thinking it's a makeup remover but it only works after you washed your face. So wash face, then wet a cotton pad and finish cleaning your...

My skin is pretty low-maintenance since going on birth control pills, but it's still quite sensitive and leans towards dry. Other "gentle" cleansers I've used either left my skin parched or failed...

This is absolutely NOT suitable for sensitive skin. It says "for sensitive skin" and "hypo-allergenic" which is not correct as it contains fragrance. My face reacted with a very red, very hot,...

I was happy enough with this product--it cleaned my face, didn't dry it out, and seemed to work well. But then I tried the Bioderma Sensibio version, which clearly worked a lot better (the pores on...

One word: useless, I only gave two for the sake of the brand name because back in time I was suffering from dryness and itchiness and some of their products helped me a lot.

I got this product in a product sampling box, however like some other users have posted i would definitely not recommend for sensitive skin. It did a great job of removing makeup, but unfortunately...

I'm lazy when it comes to a cleansing routine, so this product is just perfect for me. Cleans, removes make-up, I feel it hydrates my skin also. Also use it after waxing.

I am going to start off by saying, I love this product. As a first cleanse product, it successfully wipes down a lot of the dirt off of the face, and as a make-up remover, it is effective, yet...

I don't use it as a make-up remover but a bi-daily water-based cleanser and I like it a lot. I use it along with an oil-based cleanser and after a week, I noticed the changes. I'm a teenager, and...

This product does take off non waterproof makeup well, but if it was fragrance free I would rate it better. There is no need to have all these heavy perfumes in this product especially if they...

I don't like that this product has a strong scent. Cleansing ability is alright, gets my makeup off completely but it's can be quite sticky if I wipe and don't rinse with water. Quite expensive...
