Micellar water Belarusian cosmetics reviews

I continue to get acquainted and introduce you to products from the rather popular Belarusian pharmacy series from Belita “PharmaCos”.

I have already written about moisturizing and whitening creams here, the opinion about them is rather ambiguous, but in the case of foam and micellar there is no doubt - it is complete and unconditional delight. In truth, I have already turned all my friends and acquaintances on to these products and have not heard a single negative response, everyone was happy. It seems to me that this is exactly the case when Belita released truly cool products, without any “buts”, which are a pleasure to use.

Foam cleanser PharmaCos "Sponge effect" Belita-Vitex

Honestly, when I bought it I thought it would be just another gel that needed to be foamed in my hands, but I was wrong. It turns out that the bottle is equipped with an innovative foaming agent (as it says on the packaging!) - which is very convenient to use. You open the snap cap, press on the bottle and get a small cloud of ready-made foam. The product itself is liquid, but passing through the smallest mesh, we already get foam. It seems to me that this is the first such tool of this format in Belarus.

2-3 pumps are enough to wash your face. At first, it seemed that the consumption would not be entirely economical, but I was wrong. One bottle lasted me four months of regular use. And what’s surprising is that during this time I didn’t get tired of him one bit. I gladly bought another bottle and continued using it.

I personally liked the composition because the foam is based on thermal water:

water, thermal water, lauryl glucoside, cocamidopropyl betaine, PEG-12 dimethicone, Cymbopogon citratus (lemongrass) oil, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, panthenol, pentylene glycol, tridecet-9, bisabolol, Rosa Damascena (rose) flower extract, perfume composition, allantoin , polyquaternium-10, benzyl alcohol, methylchloroisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone, citric acid

The foam itself is very soft, delicate to the tactile sensation, and looks quite dense. The aroma is subtle, perfumey, incredibly pleasant. There are clearly some floral notes in it.

The cleansing is high quality, but gentle. In the case of foam, the name “pharmacy cosmetics” is completely justified - there is no trace of dryness or tightness. It seems to me that this foam is not capable of causing irritation or an allergic reaction at all, it is so gentle. But at the same time, I repeat, it cleans quite adequately. Probably, of all the Belarusian foam cleansers I’ve tried, this one is my absolute favorite so far. However, keep in mind that it is clearly not intended for removing makeup. This is exactly the second stage of skin cleansing; as the first, I use micellar water from the same series. I just discovered with interest that many people point out this as a lack of foam and decided to focus on this.

Price: 2.7 BYR. (RUB 130)

Micellar water for makeup removal PharmaCos "Sponge effect" Belita-Vitex

This is already the fifth bottle that I have used from start to finish. Moreover, I bought them all the time - over and over again. And I didn’t even think about trying something new, this product turned out to be so cool and perfect for me. Well, this jar is aesthetically pleasing to me. The entire design of the series this time is very thoughtful - matte bottles, white and pink range of shades. Everything is so girlishly tender. Among the rather similar Belit bottles, you immediately notice this series.

As for the “work” of the product, it showed itself to be excellent. I use a minimal amount of makeup - foundation, lipstick, mascara, eyebrow corrector - everything comes off easily and the first time. I apply the disc to my eyes for 30-40 seconds and then gently swipe it - no friction and the eyelashes are clean. I really like that the cosmetics do not smudge, but are carefully removed. Of course, I don’t use long-lasting cosmetics - I won’t say anything about this, but there’s no mention of it on the bottle either. Although, for some reason, there is a feeling that micellar water can easily cope with this too.

I tried to clearly show you a mini test drive. I applied a fairly long-lasting matte lipstick, mascara and foundation and gave it time to set on the skin. Then she placed the disk moistened with micellar water to her hand and waited a little, then lightly rubbed it over it. As you can see, the hand is almost perfectly clean and without any manipulation. In some places the remains of lipstick are visible, but the second time they come off perfectly. In my opinion, an excellent result!

The composition can also be praised for the presence of thermal water in second place:

water, thermal water, PEG-6 glyceryl caprylate/caprate, poloxamer 184, glycerin, Chamomilla recutita (chamomile) extract, phenoxyethanol, methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, perfume composition, pentylene glycol, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, trideceth-9, bisabolol, Rosa damascena (rose) flower extract, allantoin, Aloe barbadensis (aloe) leaf juice, 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol, benzyl salicylate, butylphenylmethylpropional, citronellol, limonene, geraniol, hexylcinnamal, linalol

There is a mention on the bottle that the product does not require rinsing. But I always wash off any micellar water from my face, using it as the first stage of cleansing the skin. Still, the composition here is far from ideal, so leaving it on the skin is not the best option.

The consumption of the product is not quite economical; one bottle lasts me about three weeks.

I would also like to mention the aroma. This is the first micellar eau de parfum I have come across. It seems to me that I am not lying if I say that the smell is very reminiscent of some famous perfume. I can’t figure out which ones exactly, but the aroma is definitely very tasty and subtle, and not at all irritating. This is another significant plus for me, for which I buy micellar water over and over again. Like!

Price: 2.7 BYR. (RUB 130)

This time my impressions of the products turned out to be the most positive. I give it five stars with a clear conscience and highly recommend it. Despite the extremely low cost, both the foam and the micellar water turned out to be the best. And in general, this series was rather successful for Belita. None of the products we have tested have yet disappointed. So I continue to experiment and get acquainted with the pharmacy series. There are still many interesting things you can find there.

Reviews of Belarusian cosmetics

Unstable makeup is difficult to remove. Just nice smelling water.

I confirm the properties:
Moisturizing (extra-hydrating) Toning Refreshing

In 2003, the Narciso Rodriguez brand perfume line was launched, marked by the release of women's fragrances.

The KorolevPharm company is a contract manufacturer providing a full range of development services.

Fennel Cosmetics not only works at a high technological level, but also constantly supports the so-called.

The largest producer of snack and bakery products in the Altai Territory. The enterprise exists.

Women are happy to borrow cosmetics from children's care lines because they are truly safe and suitable for even the most sensitive skin. This is how moms discovered micellar water and quickly found a place for it on their dressing tables. Manufacturers got their bearings in time and included an innovative product in their range of skin care cosmetics. Now in stores you can find micellar solutions for washing and removing makeup for any skin type. And the best of these funds are included in our rating.

Which brand of micellar water should I choose?

All cosmetic giants today produce micellar (or dispersion) solutions. The most popular brands can afford to bring good products to the market at a very reasonable price. These include:

We were able to find cheaper analogues in the assortment of the companies Ziaja (Poland) and Family Doctor (Ukraine).

There are other well-known manufacturers, but they are more focused on producing medicinal and caring cosmetics. Their products cause the least complaints, but they are not cheap.

If you don’t mind spending any money in pursuit of beauty and healthy skin, we recommend paying attention to the following brands:

7. La Roche-Posay

The products of these brands should be chosen by people with serious dermatological problems that cannot be solved by ordinary cosmetic solutions.

The best micellar water for cleansing

The simplest and most “gentle” type of micellar can be used even to care for very sensitive skin. These formulas provide gentle cleansing and do not contain aggressive substances. Even tight-fisted Europeans specifically buy micellar solutions for washing their face in order to spend less on regular water. After all, to effectively clean your face, you don’t need to splash around under the tap - just wipe your face with a cotton pad soaked in a dispersion product. It’s also convenient to take this water with you to work or on the road. The main advantage of such compositions is that they really do not need to be washed off.

Garnier Skin Naturals

The most popular water that is suitable for all skin types. It has regenerating properties, restores youth and freshness to the face. Sold in bottles of 200 and 400 ml.

Pros:

1. Mattifies oily facial skin and T-zone;
2. Suitable even for sensitive dermis;
3. Capable of removing waterproof makeup;
4. Does not sting the eyes;
5. Does not leave a film and does not clog pores;
6. Without smell;
7. Convenient dispenser and strong bottle;
8. Low cost.

Minuses:

1. To remove makeup, you will have to make more than one pass with a cotton swab over the skin;
2. It dries out a little, so subsequent moisturizing will not be superfluous.

Customers especially praise this product for its good quality at an affordable price. Many switched from more expensive micellar products to Garnier after the first trials. Our women also found several non-standard ways to use dispersion water: washing away traces of tape and stickers from things, cleaning leather bags and cosmetic bags, and smooth insoles of summer shoes. In general, they really use it as a universal cleanser.

La Roche-Posay Physiological

A French thermal water solution for sensitive skin solves several problems at once: cleanses the face, restores the protective and physiological functions of the skin. When using it, the manufacturer promises better absorption of moisturizing and caring cosmetics, as well as a calming and relaxing effect. Dispersed water of this brand is manufactured in France and Germany and is sold in bottles of different sizes: 200, 400 and 750 ml.

Pros:

1. Suitable for people with sensitive skin;
2. Copes with removing cosmetics, even very persistent ones;
3. Nice smell;
4. Does not irritate the eyes;
5. There is no feeling of tightness on the face;
6. It feels like the skin is breathing.

Minuses:

1. Inconvenient dispenser - water flows reluctantly;
2. It is supplied in unsealed packaging, so it is better to buy in trusted stores.

Women especially note the feeling of smooth skin after cleansing their face with La Roche-Posay micellar solution, however, contrary to the manufacturer’s advice, they still recommend washing it off their face.

Family Doctor

The formula of this water is enriched with milk and silk proteins, tea (red and rooibos), and contains D-panthenol, which accelerates the regeneration of skin cells. It also contains the Sum Calmin complex to combat inflammation and irritation on the face. The micellar solution is suitable for any skin type and is sold in 265 and 500 ml bottles.

Pros:

1. Hypoallergenic composition;
2. Does not dry the skin;
3. Economical consumption if you do not try to wipe off cosmetics;
4. The bottle cap is easy to open (in a bag too, so be careful);
5. Low price.

Minuses:

1. The smell may seem harsh to some;
2. Not suitable for makeup removal - cleansing only.

Like many similar products, this micellar solution has its fans and those for whom water was not suitable. But she has much more positive reviews.

Best micellar water for makeup removal

These products already include glycol components and surfactants, which provide better cleaning. Although such micellar water effectively removes waterproof makeup from the skin, it requires mandatory rinsing - no matter what the advertisers promise.

Uriage Thermal Micellar Water Normal to Dry Skin

Designed to cleanse and remove makeup from normal to dry skin. The solution contains glycerin, which retains moisture in the epidermal cells, so after micellar treatment there is no feeling of tightness on the face. It is made from natural thermal water with the addition of softening and depigmenting cranberry extract. You can distinguish this solution from other products in the line by the blue cap on the bottle. The volume of the bottle is 250 ml.

Pros:

1. Gentle cleansing;
2. Removes makeup in one pass;
3. Pleasant, subtle floral scent;
4. Relieves skin irritation;
5. There is no feeling of sticky film;
6. Does not sting the eyes;
7. It tones well.

Minuses:

If your facial skin is prone to redness and rosacea, it is better to choose Uriage water with a red cap. It contains apricot oil, which removes inflammation and prevents skin flaking. For oily and combination skin, in the same line there is a mattifying solution - in a bottle with a green cap.

Vichy Cleansing Sensitive Skin

The 3-in-1 product is more focused on removing eye makeup and use on sensitive skin. Soothes inflamed areas and relieves irritation while gently cleansing the face. Like the previous solution, it is prepared with thermal water, but is enriched with Gallic rose extract, whose phytophenols provide an additional softening effect. Sold in 200 ml bottles, but there are also 30 ml samples.

Pros:

1. Does not contain alcohols;
2. Gently removes makeup in one pass with a sponge;
3. Does not leave a shiny film;
4. Slowly consumed;
5. Can be used even by those who wear contact lenses.

Minuses:

1. Doesn't work with waterproof mascara;
2. Despite the miraculous composition, it requires rinsing off - you can’t leave it on the skin.

Avène Micellar Lotion Cleanser and Make-Up Remover

This water is suitable for all women, although it was initially positioned by the manufacturer as a product for particularly sensitive and redness-prone skin. The dispersion solution is prepared on the basis of thermal spring water and has not only a cleansing and moisturizing effect, but also softens the dermis. The product is sold in 400 ml bottles (less often - 200 ml).

Pros:

1. Relieves irritation and soothes the skin;
2. Can be used to remove eye makeup;
3. Hypoallergenic composition;
4. Does not clog pores;
5. Moisturizes dry skin while relieving irritation;
6. It removes even greasy eyeliner well.

Minuses:

1. There is a sticky feeling on the skin - it needs to be washed off;
2. The smell, although pleasant, is too pronounced.

Best micellar water for dry skin

Almost no different from micellar wash or makeup remover, but its formula necessarily includes additional moisturizing and water-retaining components. At the same time, alcohols and aggressive preservatives are removed from such formulations.

Bioderma Crealine H2O

The most popular and best-selling dispersion solution is suitable for dry and normal skin. It carefully cleanses it without destroying the protective lipid film on the face. Available in bottles of 100, 250 and 500 ml.

Pros:

1. Fast and effective cleansing;
2. It is not felt on the face, although there is a feeling of slippery skin when washed off;
3. No alcohol in the composition;
4. Very light neutral aroma;
5. Does not cause allergies or irritation;
6. Suitable for removing makeup from eyelids;
7. Economical consumption.

Minuses:

1. Unreliable lid - breaks quickly.

L’Oreal “Absolute tenderness”

A gentle solution that is suitable for removing make-up from any part of the face. The product completely replaces tonic and milk, copes well with the main problems of dry skin, but it has a very complex and multi-component composition, which is scary at first.

Pros:

1. Removes makeup in one or two movements;
2. Does not contain fragrances or alcohol;
3. Hypoallergenic composition;
4. Has a softening and soothing effect on the skin;
5. Does not sting the eyes;
6. Convenient compact bottle;
7. The lid opens easily, although it fits tightly;
8. Reasonable price.

Minuses:

1. Doesn't work well with waterproof cosmetics;
2. The hole in the lid is too big - a lot of liquid pours out at once.

Customers believe that the name “Absolute Tenderness” suits this water perfectly. However, there are some reviews where women say that L'Oreal micellar did not suit them.

Ziaja Natural olive

The water is sold in cute 200 ml bottles and is positioned specifically as a cleansing and caring product. Contains olive oil and glycerin, which are responsible for moisturizing dry and normal skin, while leaving the face feeling fresh.

Pros:

1. Tones the skin and makes it pleasantly velvety to the touch;
2. Well softens and moisturizes;
3. Unobtrusive aroma;
4. Convenient dispenser;
5. Low price.

Minuses:

1. Not suitable for removing makeup on sensitive eyes;
2. Used up quickly.

Some customers note that the Ziaja dispersion solution foams when used, so it is not advisable to leave it on the face - it is better to wash it off. Negative reviews are mainly due to the fact that the product has a narrowly targeted action. Those who expected more from it than gentle cleansing and care for dry skin were disappointed.

Best micellar water for oily skin

Initially, micellar formulations were not intended to care for shiny facial skin with wide pores, or at least required rinsing, since they left behind a shiny film. Today, dispersion solutions have appeared that are free of these disadvantages.

Bioderma Sebium H2O

An excellent choice for oily and inflammation-prone skin. The principle of action of this product is interesting - Sebium does not dry out the face, but only regulates the secretions of the sebaceous glands. In addition, water has bactericidal and soothing properties, reducing the appearance of acne. Sold in bottles of 100 and 250 ml.

Pros:

1. Soothes inflamed skin;
2. Virtually odorless;
3. In terms of the degree of purification - one of the most effective;
4. Does not give a feeling of dryness on the face;
5. Can be used for skin diseases.

Minuses:

1. Cannot be used for eye make-up removal;
2. High price.

Garnier “Clean Skin”

A fairly popular and widespread product from a well-known brand has already been tried by many owners of oily and combination skin. First of all, they were attracted by the volume of the bottle - 400 ml, but after opening the solution must be used within 6 months.

Pros:

1. Slight matting effect;
2. Pore ​​cleansing;
3. Without smell;
4. Moisturizes – there is no feeling of tightness on the face after use;
5. Does not contain parabens or fragrances;
6. Copes well with makeup removal;
7. Low cost.

Minuses:

1. Stings the eyes;
2. Contains alcohol, although this is not critical for healthy oily skin;
3. The lid is not tamper proof.

Which micellar water to buy

1. If you have very sensitive skin that does not tolerate even ordinary tap water, you should choose Garnier Skin Naturals for washing.

2. For those with very dry skin that needs constant hydration, Physiological Micellar Solution from the French brand La Roche-Posay or Bioderma Crealine H2O solution is suitable for daily cleansing.

3. Cleansing and additional care while preserving moisture in dry skin cells will be provided by the Polish Ziaja dispersion solution with the addition of olive oil.

4. If you are going to use micellar water not only for regular facial cleansing, but also to remove makeup, it is better to take Uriage thermal water under a blue or red cap (the latter will help to quickly cope with redness and rosacea).

5. Vichy Cleansing is ideal for removing makeup from sensitive eye skin.

6. Universal makeup removers for any skin type – Lotion Cleanser and Make-Up Remover from the French brand Avène and cheaper L’Oreal “Absolute Tenderness” water.

7. Do you want to save money on cleaning products? Try the inexpensive Family Doctor dispersion solution.

8. For those with combination skin, Bioderma Sébium H2O is perfect. It is designed to cleanse oily areas, but is gentle and does not dry out the face, so everyone can use it in the summer.

9. Garnier “Clean Skin” can effectively rid oily skin of excess sebaceous secretions and decorative cosmetics.
