What is Micellar Water?

Micellar Water is made up of micelles a  tiny balls of cleansing oil molecules suspended in soft water.

How it is use?

Micellar water, you can moisten a cotton pad with a few drops of the skin cleansing solution, so that the pad itself becomes moist. Then you will swipe the pad across your skin and you'll see the dirt and make up from your skin transfer to the pad.

How does it work?

The idea is that micelles are attracted to dirt and oil, so they are able to draw out impurities without drying out the skin, Therefore, micellar water can be used as a facial wash, make up remover and moisturizer all in one.



I do wear make-up a lot and proper skin care routine is important at night to avoid zits and pimples to come up. I think last year I've heard Micellar water that will shorten your make up skin routine shorter. Today I'll be reviewing Micellar Water from Maybelline.

The Review

The Swatch Test :Matte Lipstick, Eyeliner, Mascara Waterproof, Matte Foundation

Maybelline's Micellar water packaging is just a typical clear bottle with a pink cap. It clearly states information about the product, including the product name, product claims, size in ml/FL Oz, How to use it, manufacturer. Which is also written in another language which I think Japanese. For only 199 pesos this might be a good catch for those who wants to try out a Micelar Water.

If you're asking if this one really cleanse the face here is a sample swipe with this product.

First Swipe

Matte Foundation : Instantly removed the Matte foundation
Waterproof Mascara: Only lightens it's color
Eyeliner: black color is still visible
Matte Lipstick: Removes only a part of it

Second swipe

Matter foundation : Completely Vanished
Waterproof Mascara: Only lightens it's color
Eyeliner: Black color lightens
Matte Lipstick : Removes only a few parts again

I keep on doing the swipe motion until I was able to successfully remove all of the products. It takes me about 5 more swipes to take off all of the products at my hand. I also try this product to my face, removing my makeup. While I am removing my make-up I noticed that it leaves this moist, smooth texture of my skin that for me is not so comfortable as for myself until it completely dries out. Maybelline Micelar Water removes my makeup, but it takes time. It doesn't have a fragrance just like a waiter.

Is this worth the money?

For only 199 pesos you can get to try a Micelar water. Take note that waterproof products are hard to be removed from this Maybelline Micelar Water. It does remove makeup to your face, but for me you still need to wash off your face with soap and water to remove all the products from your face.

This Maybelline Micelar Water is perfect for those who on the go travelers and road trips to instantly removing your make up without using a soap and water. In that sense, I think you need to have this product also it moisturize your face to just be patient on shipping it to your face gently and it will remove all your make up.
