ETAT PUR MICELLAR CLEANSING WATER REVIEW



Etat Pur Micellar Cleansing Water - £6.40 - http://www.etatpur.co.uk/

I'm sure we've all heard of the famous Bioderma, a product which, arguably, may have fueled the blogging craze for cleansing waters. With it being quite hard to get hold of if you can't take a trip to Paris, I decided to pick up the Etat Pur Micellar Cleansing Water. With rumours that they are part of the same company as Bioderma, I had high hopes that this would become a product I could never live without.

This is a very simple product; everything from the packaging to the price to the way you use it is fuss-free. This has the consistency of water but, unlike Bioderma, which i've read is odourless, it has a pleasant but certainly prevalent smell. In case you haven't heard of cleansing waters, you use them by wiping the liquid over the skin with a cotton pad. It requires no rinsing which is what initially attracted me to the product- i'm very lazy when it comes to skincare!

It feels like water on the skin, leaving no residue or greasiness behind. However, I really have to use a lot of product to remove my makeup completely, often soaking two large cotton pads to do my entire face. However, it does work excellently as an eye makeup remover. Although this will never completely replace some of my face washes and cleansers, it is something i'd repurchase.

I can't say i've tried this product exclusively enough to comment on the longer-term effects on my skin, but it certainly hasn't caused me to break out.

I reach for this product on a regular basis, especially throughout summer when my makeup was light/ I wasn't wearing any makeup. It does leave you skin feeling incredibly fresh and, although not an essential, it is something I enjoy having in my routine. I can certainly see myself trying more from the brand in future as this was extremely affordable and is a lovely product to use.
