Micellar Cleansing Water with Salicylic Acid
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Garnier's Micellar Cleansing Water with Salicylic Acid removes makeup without leaving residue or causing breakouts, according to Aashi Adani, who also uses it to clean brushes. However, Andréa Matillano finds it less effective than the waterproof version and was nervous to use it near her eyes. TheGarsowTwins only uses it for swatches, not on her face, so it's best for light makeup or non-face use.
