Today I'm reviewing the Simple
Cleansing Micellar Water. I was dying to try this when it came out
because it was a dupe of Bioderma which has a cult following. I've
been wanting to try Bioderma but I just can not bring myself to
justify spending $30 on fancy water. I stalked the drugstores waiting
for this product to come out and I finally got my hands on it. It is
between $7 - $10 depending where you buy it. It claims it cleanses,
removes makeup, and hydrates.
I've been using it for a couple weeks
now. Originally I used it as a night cleanser to take off the day.
I have to say I felt as if I had to use a lot of the product to get
my face clean. If it was a no makeup day then it was the perfect
night time cleanser. If I had on light makeup or a full face I really
did have to use quite a bit and even then my face still had makeup on
it and I ended up using my regular cleanser anyways. So in the
beginning I gave this product a big thumbs down. However, as a
morning cleanser, I love it. I am not a morning person and usually
just rub a cleansing wipe over my face. Using this in the morning is
just as easy as a wipe and cleanses all the oil and night junk off.
It also really is hydrating. Usually after cleansing, my face is
dying for a moisturizer but with this it's completely fine. This is
also a good “after mask” cleanser. After you've taken off your
face mask and are washing it off just run this over and it gets every
little bit off and is great. As a night time makeup remover I'm going
to say not so much. This has definitely become my new morning staple
cleanser though.
