Good Drugstore Option on the go
This Micellar water does the job, whitout burning in the eye. I feel it struggles a bit with long-lasting make up, but when I need forget a travel size / product and I only see a drugstore this is my go-to option, as the small size is very affordable.
It doen´t worsen my dry skin or causes ekzema.

Nice for waterproof makeup
I have oily skin, so I only use this micellar water to remove my waterproof mascara and my eyeliner. I don't use it for my whole face because I don't usually wear foundation, I mostly just wear eyeliner, eyebrow filler and mascara. Works great if you wan't to remove your eye makeup without pain, irritation or having to scratch your eyelashes, I just use a cotton pad and press gently my eyes two or three times each.
