Review : Loreal Micellar Water

Hi Lovelies!

Hope you are doing great!

Today, I am going to share my thoughts on the Loreal's Micellar water. First of all, lemme tell you why I chose this product.I love L'Oreal Paris Dermo Expertise Lip And Eye Make-Up Remover,it's one of my holy grail products.Have been using it for a really long time.So, when Loreal came up with their micellar water version, I thought of giving it a try.Hence, this blog-post! :D

Let's get started with the review.Shall we?

About Loreal:
A global beauty care brand, L’Oréal Paris believes in the essence of helping every woman embrace her unique beauty while reinforcing her innate sense of self-worth with their internationally renowned, diversive products. The brand has wide range of affordable luxury, high-quality products in categories like skin care, hair care, hair color and makeup.

Product Description;
With the new L'Oreal Paris Micellar Water, now remove every trace of make-up, dirt, oil & pollution effortlessly and on the go, in just one swipe. Unlike other cleansers, Micellar Water requires no rinsing. Powered by micelle molecules that cluster together to surround and lift away impurities and makeup with no rinsing or harsh rubbing.

• Cleans dirt and impurities.
• Hydrates and softens skin.
• Removes every trace of makeup.
• Suitable for all skin types.

Price : INR 475

Quantity : 95 ml

Shelf-life : 6 months                           
                         

Ingredients:

In Pic : Shown ingredients of the product

What's a micellar water?
According to board-certified dermatologist Hadley King of Skinney Medspa, micellar water is made up of micelles (tiny balls of cleansing oil molecules) suspended in soft water. “The idea is that micelles are attracted to dirt and oil, so they are able to draw out impurities without drying out the skin,” she says. Therefore, micellar water can be used as a facial wash, makeup remover and moisturizer all in one.
“It looks like water, it has the viscosity of water but when you put it on your finger and feel, it has a different texture than water,” says Tabasum Mir, a skincare physician in cosmetic dermatology and cosmetic laser surgery.
Instead of foaming and stripping your complexion like soap and cleansers, micelles dissolve the bad stuff, while keeping the good stuff on your skin intact.

Source : http://stylecaster.com/beauty/what-is-micellar-water/

In layman's terms, micellar water is a product apt for removing makeup,dirt,gunk etc. from your skin.

My Experience:

Packaging:
Attractive packaging.Product comes in a plastic cylindrical bottle that has got a pink coloured plastic cap.We need to squeeze out / tilt the bottle to get the product from  the small nozzle.The packaging is very travel friendly and sturdy.Easy to carry along while travelling.The details like ingredients,quantity,shelf-life etc are mentioned on the packaging itself which is a good thing.

                                             

In Pic : Shown the opening on the head of the cylindrical bottle

In Pic : Shown product details and how to use directions

Formula & Texture:
The micellar water has a liquid-consistency(obviously).It doesn't smell of anything in particular.The texture is not oily or greasy,it's somewhere in between.Non-sticky.Love the formula,it's very lightweight and effective.Not strong or harsh on the skin.
Glycerin is one of the key ingredients and may be that's why this product keeps the skin moisturized.

Fragrance:
No fragrance.

Effective?
Yes,definitely.

• Firstly,the consistency is liquid(y) so,it becomes very easy to work with.Easy to apply on the cotton pad and clean out the skin.
• It didn't break out my sensitive skin.Skin felt soft.
• Didn't cause any skin rashes.Be careful and don't rub the cotton pad too hard,else skin-irritation might happen.Be gentle.
• Didn't leave any sticky cast on the skin.
• Very lightweight and comfortable
• Didn't strip off any essential oils from the skin
• For eye/lip makeup : use one-two cotton pads...that's sufficient.Take the product on a cotton pad generously and apply gently on the eyes/lips.Wipe in circular motions.
• Removes waterproof makeup in a jiffy! Might need to use more product on the cotton pad to remove makeup(full face). Ideally, two to four cotton pads are sufficient(depends though).
• Suitable for combination skin.Tested.
• This micellar water requires no rinsing.Very true.

Con:
Nothing in my opinion

Will I re-purchase?
Yes,definitely.Bottom line is cleanse, remove makeup and soothe as per the product-claims.I totally agree with it.This product works fine.

Overall ,I would like to say that this micellar water has become my new favourite.
I highly recommend checking this product out!

Rating: 4.5/5

My Experience:

Packaging:

Wow! The packaging is really cool.The product comes in a cream-coloured plastic tube packaging.There is a flip open plastic cap(green coloured) attached to the tube.We need to squeeze the tube to take out the product.Very hygienic packaging.All the details like quantity,shelf-life , ingredients etc are mentioned on the tube.The packaging is very sturdy and travel-friendly.But, the tube contains a lot of product due to which you might feel that it is a little heavy to carry along while travelling(in handbag etc).

Formula & Texture:

• The moisturizer is of white colour
• The body moisturizer has a very thin consistency unlike the the regular aloe soothe body moisturizer range from Vaseline that has kind of thick & creamy consistency
• Of course , the moisturizer's consistency has to be thin to get sprayed easily onto the body
• Very light-weight
• Not greasy at all
• Key ingredient glycerin keeps the skin moisturized

Effective?
Yes.

• The moisturizer keeps the skin moisturized
• Did not experience any kind of dryness throughout the day.Totally depends on skin-needs and different skin-types
• Yes,the product is non-greasy and apt for people with dry skin type
• Also,if the product is used on a daily basis,any kind of skin-dryness is taken care of...totally agree.I have been using it daily.
• For spraying the moisturizer continuously we need to keep the dispenser's head pressed and move all over the area we want to moisturize.It works just fine.

Fragrance:
The body moisturizer smells exactly like the Vaseline's regular-range of body moisturizer in the aloe soothe variant.The fragrance is of aloe which is very strong but,soothing and I love it!

Longevity:
Applied only once in a day on moist skin.Lasts all day long on the skin.It totally depends on the skin-needs and types.

Con:

• The fragrance can be over-whelming to people with very sensitive nose.I love the aloe-fragrance very much!
• No SPF

Will I re-purchase?
Yes,surely. I really love this product and highly recommend that you check out the other variants as well!The product does what has been claimed by the company.Best part is that it's non greasy and is very moisturizing...love it

What are Parabens?
Parabens are a class of widely used preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Chemically, they are a series of parahydroxybenzoates or esters of parahydroxybenzoic acid (also known as 4-hydroxybenzoic acid). Parabens are effective preservatives in many types of formulas. These compounds, and their salts, are used primarily for their bactericidal and fungicidal properties. They can be found in shampoos, commercial moisturizers, shaving gels, personal lubricants, topical/parenteral pharmaceuticals, spray tanning solution, makeup,^[1] and toothpaste. They are also used as food additives.

Are Parabens safe?
Preservatives are added to personal care and cosmetic products to prevent the growth of fungi and bacteria that may be introduced by the consumer during use. Any product that contains water is susceptible to being spoiled by the growth of fungi or bacteria, causing problems such as unsightly mold growth, discoloration, mal-odor or breakdown of the product. Under certain conditions, an inadequately preserved product can become contaminated, allowing dangerous levels of microorganisms to grow. Cosmetic products may be exposed to bacteria and fungi during product use due to contact with the skin or applicators that contact the skin. Parabens are widely used in all types of cosmetics to prevent these changes and protect the consumer. 

The U.S. FDA has classified methyl and propyl paraben as GRAS, which means they are Generally Regarded As Safe by medical and toxicological experts for use in preserving food. The FDA has also stated that parabens are safe for use in cosmetics.

What is Di-methicone?
A silicone oil consisting of dimethylsiloxane polymers, usually incorporated into a petrolatum base or a nongreasy preparation and used for the protection of normal skin against various, chiefly industrial, skin irritants; may also be used to prevent diaper dermatitis.
