    I received this product from ChickAdvisor review club.

    Loved the fact that this product is no rinse. Did not dry the skin and left it feeling soft and refreshed. A little expensive.

    I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    Garnier Micellar Water was good but did not take off mascara as well as I would have liked. It is nice that you do not have to rinse it off. Using it as a toner was fine but not as good as other toners I have used.

    I am not sure I would purchase the product again or recommend to friends.

    I received this as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club and was pleasantly surprised for the most part.

    I found that it's ability to take off mascara and eyeliner was minimal and required more scrubbing than I would like but I like that you don't have to use a ton of the product to clean your face. I like that even though I've been using it for a couple weeks I haven't gone threw a ton of it and would appear that it should last for awhile which is a nice bonus for the price. I'm honestly not sure if I would buy this after I've run out as it doesn't do quite everything I would like it to.

    If it was on sale I would recommend it to Family and Friends to try but otherwise I'm not sure.....

    I was hopeful in this micellar water by Garnier...it wasn't very effective in removing makeup, I put adequate amount on a cotton pad then wiped gently over my eyelashes, face when I occasionally wore foundation, and lids if I had eyeshadow on. If pad got full of makeup I flipped over and poured on more Garnier water. It only took minimal mascara off (non waterproof) and left some. I don't want to vigorously rub my lashes they'll break off (note I don't use false lashes).

    I am lazy and like the idea of not having to wash my face but this Garnier micellar water isn't effective at cleaning my skin like real tap water. I felt after using it and just letting it dry on my face, that my pores were clogged and not breathing. I am going to stick with plain tap water and facial cleanser to care for my facial skin.

    Thankfully I got to try this for free from the review club and didn't waste any money. Thanks. I think I'd love trying healthy snack products I'm sure I'd love them all:)

    I received this product for free from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club in exchange for my honest option and I must say I liked that I wouldn't have to wash my face with soap & water and or after using this product having to use it afterwards which was a plus. But was disappointed when I used it and found that it left my skin feeling like it had a film on it. I personally do not wear makeup so I wouldn't buy this product as I find it's not something I that soap and water would not do to my face. For this I can not tell you how it works on removing makeup.

    I received this product as a free trial through the product review club.

    For me this product gets a resounding "meh". While it does remove make up, I needed to almost soak it off. Mascara was quite a challenge. The cons outweigh the benefits on this one.

    After some further use, this product has grown on me. I've learned that you need to soak your cotton pad rather than use the water sparingly. It does a great job of removing all make-up, including mascara, when taking this approach. I'd give it a 3.5 rating at this point.

    Unfortunately, I didn't find much of a difference between this product and any other makeup remover or even just water. I experienced a slight sting when I first used it and while it did make my makeup off, I didn't find any reason to feel it did it better then any other remover, unfortunately. I didn't have to rub my makeup off with it, but I did have to use quite a bit to make sure it all got off. I don't think for the retail price I would choose this makeup remover over some of the other ones I've tried.

    I received this from Chick Advisor to try out. I was really excited about this b/c I'm a very busy mama and anything that helps save time, I'm all for it. This All-in-1 cleaner claims to be remove makeup, cleanses, refreshes and for all skin types even sensitive. It has no oil, doesn't need to be rinsed and can you on the face, eyes and lips. I used this consistently everyday until writing this review. It doesn't smell like much. Upon application, it feels like a typical All-in-1 cleanser (watery oily feel and foams a bit when you apply it). It took a lot of product to remove my face makeup but it did clean very well. My skin didn't feel as clean as when I use my usual face cleaners. It felt clean as in I rinsed in face off with just water type of clean. It didn't a good job at all taking off my mascara. I used just as much product trying to take off my mascara as I did for my entire face and it still didn't remove it completely. I woke up every morning with flakes of mascara left over. I tried placing a cotton pad saturated with product and put it on my eye for a bit to help dissolve the mascara, but that didn't work either. I felt it made my eyes sting a little. Nothing too intense, more like chewing mint gum and going out on a winter day kind of sting. I do love the convenience of this. I would use it on days when I don't wear mascara or when I go camping. I will try using this as a toner. I used this with the Garnier Skin Active Clearly Brighter brightening and smoothing daily moisturizer and had a few minor breakouts; so can't say for sure which did that.

    Received this as a PRC product and I have to say that I am very disappointed with it. I had to use 3 cotton pads just to get all my make up off (note: I don't wear a lot of make up) and it did nothing to remove my waterproof mascara (I had to use my normal eye make up remover to get that off). However, on the days when I wore no make up I did like the refreshing feeling that it left my skin post cleaning. This product would be good to use to "freshen up" your face but not as a go to cleanser.

    I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. Though I'm a fan of the anti-fatigue moisturizer in this line, I'm not a huge fan of this product. I didn't enjoy the smell, and I didn't find it performed noticeably better than my regular Garnier toner (smells heavenly), which is my go-to product, especially when I'm too lazy to take my make-up off at night. If it had removed my waterproof mascara, I would have been sold, but it didn't. I love how huge the bottle is and think it's a great bargain, but the product just didn't wow me.
