I'm so happy that Bioderma sponsores you, you totally deserve it and it's such a great brand :D I don't really like micellar water, as you said using it with pads is like a light physical exfoliation which would irritate me, but you listed many advantages of it which I didn't think about before :) like using it where the tap water is not suitable for you and after microblading, I might think about it for situstions like this. thanks for the quality content :)

Thank you for this. I’ve been loving micellar water and my skin gets constant compliments (and I live in a very hard water area) but I just watched a video by a dermatologist who acted like micellar waters were only a makeup remover and had to be washed off! So thank you very much for reassuring me!

This was an awesome video! I love the Bioderma miceller water for sensitive skin. The Simple one for sensitive skin is also good. I always use a cotton pad but didn’t know the science behind it that you need to use a cotton pad. It’s also good to know you can leave them on. Thanks! 😊

Getting some bioderma to replace the stuff I generally use to clean up during my makeup routine in the morning. Great information. Thank you!

So interesting. I love the pink Bioderma for removing the bits of "panda eyes" mascara that always seems to hang around after I've washed 🐼

Thank you!!! I have hard water where I live and micellar water has helped so much! I read that you didn’t need to rinse it off, which is why I started using it. But all the skincare groups I’m in go beserk at that. Thank you for your explanation! That helps so much!

Great review

Love my pink top Sensibio Bioderma Micellar water! The Garnier supposed dupe is really drying and irritating. Not changing from the Bioderma ever again. I use it as my step 2 in my cleanse after the Bioderma Pink Sensibio gel cleanser and a good rinse with water. Kind of like a toner. When I do this my eyelids don’t itch from any leftover eye makeup. It’s the best. The cotton pads that I love and are the softest are the Shiseido ones. I’m 63 with allergy prone sensitive dry eczema prone skin. Also when I am almost done cleaning my makeup brushes I squirt a little Micellar water on my brushes and rub a bit then squeeze & rinse. It’s amazing how much more makeup comes out even though I got it “clean” using soaps or my cleansing gel.

Great video. Thanks!

This was great! Thank you!!!!!!

Cool. I‘ve never used the stuff, since we have great tab water here and ye olde oil cleanse works very well for me...but it’s good to know, what to look for in case I ever need it for traveling. 👍

I got cystic acne after starting using micellar water Sensibio, the pink one. I found an article with someone with the same problem and recommended washing the face after using it. I still wash my face every time after and never had problems again. But this way some of the advantages you mentioned are gone.

My skin doesn't agree with oil cleansers so I use the Sensibio micellar water as the first cleanse in a double cleanse method. For the second cleanse, I use a very gentle cleansing milk (my current favourite is Avene's Extermely Gentle Cleansing Lotion) to make sure I washed any residue and excess sunscreen/makeup off. Ideally you should rinse the micellar water off especially if you're sensitive, acne-prone. You can leave it on from time to time if you're on a plane, travel, late night party etc. but not in a long run.

Bioderma for sensitive skin gave me rosacea... I discovered the garnier micellar water for oily and sensitive skin. Waou! also the Yves Rocher for sensitive skin, that is a good sebum remover too.

Thank you. Now I get it.

I use Garnier micellar water, but I always rinse it off. So far so good

Such an informative video as always and huge congrats on the sponsorship! I’ve been using micellar water and had no clue cotton pads were lightly exfoliating, so now I’m even more keen to try oil cleansing. Would you know of any Aussie products that are the equivalent of Albolene, or whether Aussie Hydraderm Sorbolene cream could be a good first cleanser? Ingredients (re Albolene) = mineral oil, petrolatum, paraffin, ceresin, beta carotene Ingredients (re Hydraderm = Water, glycerol, liquid paraffin, soft white paraffin, cetostearyl alcohol, propylene glycol, cetomacrogol 1000, chlorocresol.

Love your eyebrows... did you have them microbladed in Australia?

Bioderma is the love of my life.

I use micellar water as a toner because it makes my skin feel really soft and moisturised - are there any real benefits?

Love your videos! Have been watching for years now ❤ I do have a question: You mention you need cotton pads, but if those are too rough for ones skin, would microfiber pads work as well? 😲

Thank you for the informative video! Do we use micellar water before we wash our faces or after? I have been using mine after I wash my face and then I apply my daily creams

Which one is best for open pores and prone skin??

i went for holidays but there was hardwater. and i get worst breakouts due to hardwater. And thank god this time i bought miscellar water and a spray bottle with minetal water in it. and i literally saved my skin. first i wiped my face gently with miscellar water and then spray water on my face and wiped again . and it really help me

I recognise that pink lid!! It’s the one I use!! I didn’t know it was too acidic. I’ll switch to Bioderma

I’m so happy I found you 👍🏼😃 you explain everything so good.

Thx for the video :) you mentioned that we need to clean the face with micellar water before showering? What’s is the reason for that, can it be done after the shower?

Can micellar water be used as a cleanser on it’s own ?

Sensibio micellar water has saved me. I have rosacea and during the winter it can get so bad that even washing my face with just water provokes an intense flush and burning. With the Sensibio I am able to cleanse my face without irritation. I always soak one side of the cotton pad with the micellar water, go over my face, then put a few drops of lukewarm water on the flipside and go over the face again to not leave too much micellar water on my skin (I suppose it's not necessary but I'm kinda paranoid).

Hi michelle, formulation-wise what are the basic composition of a Micellar water?

Hi! Do we need to shake the bioderma micellar water before each use?

Hi Michelle! I live in an area that has hard water so I was wondering how I can use micellar water as an alternative to cleanse my skin? Is using the micellar water alone on a cotton pad every morning and evening enough to cleanse my skin?

Can you name some ingredients in a micellar water that indicate that they should be washed off and not left on the skin...? I’ll try to check my products’ ingredient lists. Thanks!

Hi Michelle! I've seen people mixing micellar water with water in a foam-maker and use it like a normal cleanser and then rinse it off. I wonder if this works?

I used the one in the pink bottle but it irritated my skin. I noticed immediately after use that my skin felt tight and eventually it became dry and dull.

Hey Michelle, I've been using Garnier micellar morning and night without a cotton pad for a while. I poured it on my hand and then rub it onto my face, making sure that I see it emulsifying (turning white) then rinsing it off with water. Do you this method is able to cleanse the face properly? Or would you recommend to use cotton pad? (I don't use makeup)

Can you use just cleasing water in the morning and rinse water afterwards? Thanks

Can the simple one be left on to as the bioderma one ?

Hii, i would like to askkkk, how to know if the sunscreen is fully removed when we use micellar water?

I use micellar water AFTER cleansing thoroughly, just to check there is nothing on there still. That works for me.

Could I use micellar water with just my hands, like a cleanser?

What is the pH level of simple micellar water?

I wash my micellar water off with a face wash and use a toner afterwards, then moisturise. Is this correct?

I wasn't sure it would be less effective since the non-polar heads wouldn't be arranged in a micelle as with a cotton pad?

Washing tips: 1.Put them in a mesh lingerie bag to keep them from disappearing in the washing machine. 2. Periodically "strip" them with an oxygen cleaner to get the build up out of them. I saturate them with the Oxyclean stain spray, but a long soak in a tub with hot water and a scoop of the powdered Oxyclean works well, too.

Pajama Mama I use the same spf plus makeup everyday and I have very sensitive allergic eczema skin so here’s what I do: Step 1: cleanse with the Sensibio pink gel cleanser- a pump of that, gentle fingers massage into wet face for a minute or so. Rinse well with lukewarm running tap water. I get my face right under the tap a rinse well with my fingers and PAT DONT RUB with a clean soft facecloth just to take excess water off. Step 2: I take a Shiseido cotton pad (softest one I’ve found) and put the Bioderma Sensibio Micellar water on it and hold on lids, gently wiping my lashline for the last bits of mascara etc. I carry on over the rest of my face gently wiping any last traces. Then I rinse again and pat dry but since this video I won’t bother with the second rinse. It gets EVERYTHING off. Till I did it this way I would wake up at times with itchy eyelids from remnants. I can’t recommend both those Bioderma Sensibio products enough along with the Shiseido cotton pads. I quickly follow with my moisturizer to lock in the water into my skin and wake up comfortable even around my eyes. For an alternative first step I use Clinique cleansing balm- the purple jar and same routine. I like that for travel because the little jars of that are easier to travel with as a mini and a solid balm that won’t leak. So if you prefer an oil cleanse try the Clinique cleansing balm instead of the Sensibio gel cleanser.
