Is all micellar water created equal?

[Alps79]

I have decided I prefer this to any other make-up remover.... are they all the same? Is there a "fan favorite?"

[calico]

I have tried a few and love the pink bioderma. The pink garnier one is similar, but I don't buy Loreal owned brands anymore. If i time it right, I can get the bioderma for almost the same regular price as the garnier.

[mrsukyankee]

Ditto to the pink bioderma. I like it more than any other.

[juliachild]

I also like the pink bioderma more than garnier. I've heard good things about the simple water boost. That is on my to try list.

Another for Bioderma. I like the pump it comes with too. Beautylish has multi packs of them and fast shipping.

Yup

Pippin, aww man, why does the cool pump bottle have to be $6 more than the regular one? Do you think I could buy one bottle and then just refill it?

That’s what I do. I’ve only bought that particular pump bottle once lol.

I don’t have the cool pump, but I’m getting that one next time. I feel like I pour way too much on my cotton pad with the regular one so I guessing you use less product with the pump.

I think so even though I have to pump it a few times because it sucks excess product back into the bottle.

Simple's broke me out bad. I like the Blue Garnier one but I want to try Bioderma.

[secretlyevil]

I’ve been using CeraVe’s new one. It’s my first time using it so I can’t compare.

[susiebw]

I use blue Garnier one because it says it's formulated to remove waterproof makeup. It's the only one I've ever tried. I've heard that many micellar waters don't remove waterproof mascaras - does that Bioderma one that everyone is recommending remove waterproof?

[bowies]

I can’t tell them apart. Sephora brand supposedly makes a good one. Right now I’m using a Tony Moly one I bought off the clearance rack at Ulta. It’s good, no complaints.

I don’t use them as a true cleanser though, just to occasionally freshen up in the morning before I shower, especially if I have some mascara remnants hanging out. Most leave a residue that isn’t good for the skin.

[centralsquare]

I strongly disliked Simple. Bioderma is great.

[sagelily]

I have been using Simple but I want to try Bioderma. I can't find the pump available anywhere. Besides beautylish, it looks like dermstore sells it. I've never ordered from either of those places. For those of you using the Bioderma, where are you getting it?

[calico]

sagelily, I get my bioderma from dermstore. They have sales pretty often and I usually stock up then. Right after Thanksgiving, they had it on sale and I was able to use a coupon code, so I got the 16oz bottle for something like $8 each. The shipping is quick and I've always been happy with the service.

Thanks so much for letting me know! I may get one from there to try now and then watch for a sale.
