Review: L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection Micellar Water

I've been using this stuff pretty much since the day it came out in the shops, and honestly think it's brilliant. Now I've never tried Bioderma (it seems such a hassle to get hold of, and expensive for posh water) but I have tested out the B. Pure Micellar Water from Superdrug. In comparison, the L'Oreal one just seems to do a lot more, for a cheaper price! Vogue and Woman and Home named it in their top 10 Micellar Waters and yes it does work on most mascaras too!

I tend to use a face wash/wipe to remove the bulk of my makeup, then use a cotton pad to swipe the L'Oreal Micellar Water over my face to make sure it's thoroughly cleansed. I don't always feel the need to use a toner after using this product but always use a moisturiser.

This article is a good one if you want to find out a bit more information about Micellar Waters in general.

Price:
Usually £4.99 but there's always offers on it and I've never paid full price!

How long does a bottle last?
I use mine twice a day every day, and would say the 200ml bottle lasts me around a month.

Skin Type:
I'm no expert but I'd say most skin types should be okay using this. The bottle states that the water is suitable for sensitive skin and hypoallergenic. Mine is dry and sensitive, with a few oily patches and this doesn't irritate my skin at all. Overuse can be drying but if you use a good moisturiser, it will counteract the dryness. My eyes don't sting if I use this on them either, but I can't guarantee it won't on everybody.

I'd recommend this product if you're looking into trying out a micellar water, it's cheap enough that if you don't like it then you've not wasted your money. Be prepared to love it though!!
