Lumene Classics Micellar Cleansing Water 200 ml Review

Ingredients:


AQUA (WATER), BUTYLENE GLYCOL, POLOXAMER 184, ERIOPHORUM SPISSUM (NORDIC COTTONGRASS) FLOWER/STEM EXTRACT, PHENOXYETHANOL, GLYCERIN, PROPANEDIOL, DISODIUM EDTA, POLYSORBATE 20, ETHYLHEXYLGLYCERIN, ALLANTOIN, POTASSIUM SORBATE, SORBIC ACID, SODIUM HYDROXIDE.

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...


Thoughts:

- Not super good for removing mascara (but micellar waters rarely are, I prefer oil)

- Nothing special - not hydrating, not calming, no extra effects, like acne fighting



+ First things first: doesn't leave skin as "sticky" as Garnier Micellar Water, finish feels a lot nicer.

+ Removes most of the makeup, but I usually use micellar waters like toners for finishing or just for refreshing during the day so can't comment more on that.

+ Fresh scent, doesn't linger, not too strong.

+ Affordable

+ Easy to get (for me)

+ No irritation



* I bought my first bottle of Lumene's market series Classics/Klassikko Cleansing Water during a trip simply because I had forgotten my Garnier bottle at home and this one seemed simple enough and the bottle wasn't too big to lug around. I lost my first bottle but liked the product enough to buy another, and later found my first bottle as well.

* I must admit there is not all that much to say about this micellar water - it is micellar water. It works as well as they usually do. I don't use micellar waters primarily to remove makeup and I do prefer oil cleansing, it helps to keep my skin unclogged better and is more gentle.



Price: 

5 € / 200 ml

Bought from: 

Supermarket

Buy again? 

Maybe? Not against it. I did repurchase once already, after all!

Worth the money? 

Yeah, Lumene's Classic series Micellar Cleansing Water is nice and basic for a nice and basic price.
