Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water With Hyaluronic Acid + Aloe 12 ingredients
Okay so I have acne prone skin and I’m currently using differin at 1%. I love this. Whenever I wear makeup (or do not have the energy to wash my face), this is my life savior. It gets rid of everything (and is more effective on waterproof mascara than the others, yes even the oil one). Most importantly, it does not break me out! It is also much more hydrating than anything I’ve tried before.

My favorite way to cleanse in the morning!
I have dry but acne prone skin, so I really wanted to find a way to cleanse my skin in the morning without also stripping my skin of every ounce of moisture it has. I’ve been testing micellar waters for awhile now, but so far this one by COSRX is my favorite! It feels a little more hydrating than some of the others I’ve tried (Bioderma and Garnier), and Show more
One if the best micellar/cleansing water I've tried, doesn't feel drying and won't irratate sensative skin, I have oily sensative skin and I'm also acne prone.
Only use it when you have makeup spf or when your skin is really oily otherwise just use your gel or foam cleanser. And this cleansing water is also !!fungal ance safe!! what more can you ask for.
