This is my second bottle of \u003Cb\u003ENeutrogena Deep Clean Micellar gel to foam 2-in-1 remover \u0026amp; deep cleanser\u003C\/b\u003E! Wow! that was quite a mouthful. I use the \u003Cb\u003Edry skin version\u003C\/b\u003E\u0026nbsp;in it.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThis cleanser is a pretty no nonsense product. It actually does it all- \u003Cb\u003Etakes off makeup and doubles up as cleanser\u003C\/b\u003E. Theoretically, it's a transparent gel which when rubbed on face dissolves makeup, dirt and grime and then as water is added, it turns into foam and all the residue is washed off.\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn real life, I wish this gel was a little more runny. As I rub it onto my face to dissolve all makeup, it only stays for about 10-15 seconds on my face and then as I rub away, it absorbs in. At this point I add 2-3 drops of water to reactivate it and then it takes off all my makeup well. After this initial makeup removal step, I take a another tiny pea size amount of it, wet my hands and use it as a foamy cleanser to deep clean my face. And done!\u003Cbr \/\u003EThis product is definitely \u003Cb\u003Etravel friendly\u003C\/b\u003E as it saves me from carrying a makeup remover. It doesn't itch my eye or irritate my skin. It dissolves most stubborn makeup in one go. The foaming cleanser is actually pretty potent so I do think it'll work for both dry and combo skin. I can definitely get away with just one cleanse on most days. Its the days when I do special occasion heavy duty makeup that I need the to double cleanse thoroughly with this Neutrogena cleanser. It gives a \u003Cb\u003Esqueaky clean face\u003C\/b\u003E. If you have overly dry skin, you will have to moisturize right after as its not hydrating. I treat it as a normal foaming cleanser and follow with my toner, Neutrogena Hydro Gel and Rosehip Oil.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDo I recommend this? Yes if you're looking for a \u003Cb\u003E2-in-1 product\u003C\/b\u003E that saves you time and space. The price point of \u003Cb\u003E$17.99 NZD\u003C\/b\u003E is decent for a multitasking product. It comes in a very well packaged \u003Cb\u003E142 ml pump packaging\u003C\/b\u003E that is unbelievably mess free. I am on my second bottle of this cleanser and I still can't stop admiring its design.\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe cleanser is available in all leading supermarkets in 2 variants. I have not tried the purple oily skin version on my face.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-PFMiPthI2Rk\/WYgR77txotI\/AAAAAAAADls\/oLhOiGRtUrc1FIK3eHBaBhpImCHjDo6mQCLcBGAs\/s1600\/Neutrogena%2Bmakeup%2Bremover%2Bmicellar%2Bgel%2Breview.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Neutrogena 2 in 1 makeup remover cleanser review \" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1067\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-PFMiPthI2Rk\/WYgR77txotI\/AAAAAAAADls\/oLhOiGRtUrc1FIK3eHBaBhpImCHjDo6mQCLcBGAs\/s640\/Neutrogena%2Bmakeup%2Bremover%2Bmicellar%2Bgel%2Breview.jpg\" title=\"Neutrogena Deep Clean Micellar Gel to Foam Cleanser Review\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-ZAqP_GnG2po\/WYgTA8szeiI\/AAAAAAAADl0\/GQWMLojR__I04ZiLwO2zjUICC63M5CiZwCLcBGAs\/s1600\/Neutrogena%2Bmicellar%2Bgel%2Breview.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg alt=\"Neutrogena  Micellar Gel to Foam  oily skin Cleanser Review\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1067\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-ZAqP_GnG2po\/WYgTA8szeiI\/AAAAAAAADl0\/GQWMLojR__I04ZiLwO2zjUICC63M5CiZwCLcBGAs\/s640\/Neutrogena%2Bmicellar%2Bgel%2Breview.jpg\" title=\"Neutrogena Deep Clean Micellar Gel to Foam Cleanser Review\" width=\"640\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cspan id=\"goog_1351878542\"\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan id=\"goog_1351878543\"\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDo you use Micellar Water Cleansers?

Reason- As the foundation is very thin, the brush found it hard to blend it into skin (unless you go dab-dab and take forever). The beauty Blender gave a very sheer finish and absorbed some of the product as well. You know MAC is expensive shizz so yeah! fingers are my pick this one time.

I had never been \u003Cb\u003Edisappointed\u003C\/b\u003E by Rimmel before so didn't mind buying without reading reviews online **Shudders**. I would've forgiven it for stinging my eyes if it didn't say \"\u003Cb\u003EGENTLE EYE\u003C\/b\u003E makeup remover\" on it (notice those two words!). It's \u003Cb\u003Enot Gentle\u003C\/b\u003E and certainly\u003Cb\u003E not for the eyes\u003C\/b\u003E. Its pretty bad so never gets anywhere near my eyes now. However, \u003Cb\u003EOK for the face\u003C\/b\u003E (defeats the purpose.. duhh!!). It's \u003Cb\u003Epretty runny\u003C\/b\u003E so I tend to soak a cotton ball of it and rub that all over my madeup face. Works a charm. That's about it really! Not a fan but since I've paid for it, I'll finish it! Even if it means drenching the cotton with double than whats needed. To sum it up,It's pretty decent but I won't buy it again.
