Okay, so both products are the same price at £4.99 (which I think is a really good price), however with the L'Oreal Paris version, you only get 200ml whereas with Garnier you get double at 400ml. This makes a huge difference in preference for me, why buy half the amount for the same price? Who knows. Both claim to have this 3 step process - removing make-up, cleansing and thirdly, smoothing skin. I do think that both products do this pretty well. They both remove my make-up really well including eye make-up. I've heard they're not very good with waterproof eye make-up but then I don't really wear waterproof so it doesn't affect me. I've also noticed that since using both of these, I break out a LOT less. That may just be because I'm looking after my skin more though. The only negative comment I have, is that I can't use the L'Oreal water on my eyes, but I can use the Garnier - no idea why this is as both products have practically the same ingredients.
The one downside to both of these products is the amount of product wasted. Both have a hole tops and the amount of product that comes out sooo quickly is annoying. Obviously the solution it to place a cotton pad over the opening and let it soak into it - but it's still annoying. I got through the L'Oreal seriously quickly as it's only 200ml but Garnier has lasted me a lot longer.
After using both, I can say that I'll be re-purchasing the Garnier version for the pure fact that you get double to the product for the same amount of money.
Have you used either of these products?

I've used both, but like you, I much prefer the Garnier micellar water! xo
ReplyDeleteThe garnier is definitely better value for money! Also I just find these products so easy and quick to get rid of dirt/make up ect:)

I'm yet to try Micellar water but I definitely would use the Garnier one, why wouldn't you, if you get the same price but double the amount? Lovely post x

I love using the Garnier one to take off my makeup. It's so quick and easy, there's no heavy rubbing involved! I also started out with Loreal and quickly switched to Garnier when I realised you get double the product for the same price (or even cheaper if it's on special offer) x

Me too! It's better value too!
ReplyDeleteYeah I definitely recommend the Garnier!
ReplyDeleteYeah it really removes make-up so easily!

I completely agree! I'd go for the Garnier :)
ReplyDeleteYeah I think I picked up my Garnier when it was on offer tbh! That might of been one of the reasons I switched, I can't really remember!
ReplyDeleteI love micellar waters, personally I prefer the L'oreal one as I think it's better for me skin.
ReplyDeleteI've recently started using the Eucerin 3in1 micellar fluid, I've mentioned it my blog if you'd like to check it out :) I definitely recommend it!

I have the L'oreal one and it is pretty good! I didn't like it at first and I feel like my skin isn't very clean after using it but it has attacked blackheads and helped work as a toner too. It's really not a bad product!

I do like both of them! I just think Garnier is better value for money!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I like both but for double the product, you gotta stick with Garnier in my eyes!
ReplyDeleteI do like the L'Oreal one, other than not being able to use it on my eyes which I guess isn't the end of the world! But you get double the product with Garnier! I'm a bargain hunter :P
ReplyDeleteIt does make you feel fresh, I agree!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried either of these but think I will pick up the garnier one soon :) x
