Ingredients:

Another Micellar Cleansing water, remember I mentioned this Vichy one in the Bioderma review HERE.

Vichy Purete Thermale Spa 3 in 1 Calming Cleansing Micellar Solution (quite a mouthful) comes in this rectangular bottle packaging with a flip cap. The plastic bottle is slightly big and not very travel friendly.

I have been using this since quite some time now. It removes all of my makeup easily, especially melts the foundation and removes the lipstick in one go.

My only issue was the eye area again 🙁 Sadly how much ever I try and shut my eyes tight while removing my eye makeup, some remover seeps into the eye and the eyes start burning. Thankfully, this did not burn my eyes as much, but yes I couldn’t remove my kajal on the waterline with this too, as with other micellar waters.

Before (Worn Out Makeup) – After

The best thing is you need not wash your face, it is completely non sticky and non greasy. It is just like water, that melts all your makeup and removes it all. It is very calming and soothing and perfect for sensitive skin too.

Compared to Bioderma, this is slightly expensive. (Bioderma Sensibio is Rs.860/- fro 250ml) But both worked almost the same way for me. If you cannot get your hands on the Bioderma one or want to try something new, I would highly recommend you try this Vichy Purete Thermale Spa Micellar Solution.

Overall I would say, apart from my eye area, I loved it using on the face and it made removing makeup quite an ease. I would have preferred if it would come in smaller bottles and different variants.

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Cleansing Water Review

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Cleansing Water Review

Hi guys,

Today I am reviewing the much raved about Bioderma Sensibio H2O. Bioderma is a French pharmacy brand and most of the Bioderma products are now available in India and they are looking at more distribution soon 🙂 Micellar Cleansing Water is what quite a few brands offer, I have tried the Vichy one too. (Review coming soon). It is basically a water based cleanser/makeup remover.

What the Company claims: Sensitive to intolerant skin. Sensibio H2O is the 1st and only dermatological micellar water perfectly compatible with the skin: its fatty acid esters, the constituent elements of micelles, are similar to the phospholipids of the skin cell membranes and naturally help rebuild the skin’s hydrolipidic film.

Cleanses and removes make-up from the face and eyes
Soothes and clears up irritated skin
Produces a feeling of instant freshness

MRP: Rs.599/- for 100ml, Rs.860/- for 200ml (Available on Nykaa.com)

Essentially Bioderma products are safe for sensitive skin and this product Sensibio H2O is specially made for sensitive skin and hence it is very gentle on the skin.

I love the fact that it comes in different variants,and this small 100ml bottle is perfect to carry for your travels.

It has a small,round bottle transparent packaging with a pink flip cap. It looks and feels exactly like water,as do all micellar cleansing water.  It is fragrance free. It comes with a sealed lock, so you can be assured your product is not tampered.

You just soak a cotton pad with this and remove all your makeup. It melts the base and gets it all off in a jiffy,90% of your makeup including the water proof one,comes off with this.

My only concern was it did burn my eyes a bit, I have read reviews where it worked really well for removing eye makeup, but then maybe it is just me, coz all makeup removers burn my eyes a bit. And I cannot get rid of waterproof mascara and a long staying kajal with this. Even if I just let it stay on the eyes and don’t rub but if a bit of it seeps in, eyes start burning :/ Though it does not burn as much as a few other makeup removers.

The best thing about Bioderma Sensibio H2O is that,it is very gentle and mild on the skin and there is no stickiness or greasiness at all. You can just cleanse your face and let it be,without using anything else. I usually like to end with a face wash, coz I like my face to be squeaky clean 🙂

Here is the before,after..I had heavy base makeup and full on contouring done in this pic and it removed every bit of the base.

As you can see the kajal is still on the waterline and I dare not use this near the waterline, coz even while removing the mascara it burns my eyes a bit.

Overall I would say, it is the perfect makeup remover for someone with sensitive skin and/or use on a daily basis. It is mild and gentle, does not irritate the skin at all, removes 90% of the makeup. But if you are someone with very sensitive eyes like mine, be a little careful of using it near the eyes.

The 100ml bottle is slightly on the expensive side,I would recommend getting a 200ml bottle as that is more economical. But if you need something for your travel kit, you can get the 100ml one.
