Gentle yet effective
Iâve been using Bioderma for over ten years. Itâs all I use to cleanse my face both day and night. Itâs gentle yet effective, and gets everything off including my sunscreen, makeup, and whatever dirt has accumulated during the day. The place Iâm living at right now has hard water, so I also swipe this over my face after showering, and itâs helped so much with balancing my skin and keeping it from getting too dry/irritated by the hard water.

Pretty good stuff
I don’t wear makeup but I still need to wash my face. And sometimes I am just plain lazy about it. It is amazing how much dirt and oil accumulates on my oily skin and I can see it come off on the cotton pad when I use this stuff.

One of the best skincare products I have bought so far!
Oh yeah! I have been looking for a good cleanser/makeup remover for a LONG time and I have tried out a LOT of them from different brands and most of them either leave my face/eyes greasy or irritate my skin causing breakouts…I bought this H20 solution after seeing a video review on youtube. I do not regret it whatsoever. Have been using it for two days and LOVE it. I picked the one for oily skin which I suffer from and boy, this cleanser cleans my face so well yet no ounce of grease. It also does not dry off my skin but leaves it well balanced and feeling FRESH! Yes, it’s pricey BUT for the amount and quality you can’t find anything better especially in the drugstores. I am familiar with Bioderma brand when I used to live in Europe and it’s a very well respected and much used brand. It’s made in France so quality is guaranteed. In other words, this is one of the best skin care products I have purchased for a longest time and I plan on sticking to it.You can use this solution to remove your make up then wash your face with the cleanser or if you are not wearing much makeup, wash it first then apply the solution – either way it leaves the skin very well moisturized and feeling clean and soft

Green version or Pink version? What’s the difference?
First off, if you’ve never used a micellar water/solution before , I strongly recommend giving them a shot. Micellar waters are a soap free non-rinse cleansing solution that gently and effectively removes makeup, dirt, and other debris on the skin by using micelle molecules that, when applied to the skin, encapsulates debris within the molecules which removes it from the skin without stripping and irritating even the most sensitive skin. It’s all very scientific. There’s a slew of information that you can find on micelle molecules and how they work.Micellar solutions can be used in a number of ways ( i.e. a makeup remover, toner, cleanser) and working them into your skin care routine can really save you a lot of time.After using a whole bottle of the pink version (which is for normal and sensitive skin) I decided to try this green version out (for oily and combination skin) when I needed to reorder because within the last year my skin has become excessively more oily in my T-zone and chin, yet exceptionally dry everywhere else. I really wanted to see what, if any, difference there was between the two.Since I still had a few applications worth in the pink bottle I decided to do a side by side comparison for a few days by using the pink version on one side of my face and using the green on the other. I typically use my micellar solution to remove my makeup and prep my skin for washing and cleansing with either my Murad Time Release Acne and Ant-Aging cleanser, or my Caudalie foaming cleanser. If I’m feeling particularly too lazy/tired, or if I’m not wearing any makeup I’ll use it on its own.Both perform the same at successfully removing makeup and dirt, however I found that I had to use more of the pink solution than the green to achieve my desired results. Both are similarly gentle and refreshing and remove eye makeup without struggle or irritation, but again it seemed like the green removed more more quickly than the pink. The pink does tingle more than the green. If you use these solutions you know what I’m talking about. For those of you that don’t, I say “tingle” because it’s the only word I can think of to describe the sensation. It is not a burning, menthol, or medicated type of tingling. It’s not uncomfortable or irritating by any means and is more strongly felt in more sensitive areas or areas that are more clogged than others. Also, it stops pretty quickly and is not felt once the solution has evaporated. I’m assuming that this tingle sensation is in part linked to the encapsulation of debris by the molecules before evaporation. If you’ve ever eaten Pop Rocks, imagine a gentler, much less extreme version of that sensation on your skin.In my side by side comparison I noticed that the side on which I used the green solution stayed grease-free longer than that of the pink. The green side also feels less taught after drying than the pink. Although, I hadn’t noticed any tightness in feeling with the pink version before trying the green and comparing, so the difference is slight yet enough to notice.The pink version is clear, however the green is light blue in color. The ingredients are significantly different. I won’t list them all here but I will point out that the pink version has cucumber extract whereas the green has ginkgo biloba extract instead. The green seems to have more ingredients than the pink and is NOT fragrance free like the pink one…BUT despite the fact the pink does not have any ADDED fragrance, it does have a smell. The pink version definitely smells stronger than the fragrance of the green. Oddly enough, the green smells like cucumber and rose. The fragrance of the green version is so slight it’s almost unnoticeable upon application which causes me to believe it is included to either counteract any scent caused by an ingredient the pink version does not have, or for those who don’t like the way the pink one smells. The pink has a slight tinge of chemical smell but primarily (and this is just what it smells like to me and the best way I can describe it) it smells like dirt. Yep. Dirt. Literal earth. Almost the way dirt smells after it rains. It’s not horrible or overly offensive to me personally, it’s just much stronger.If you’re trying to choose between the two, the added fragrance and the smell of each might be a big determining factor.Another pro for the green is that I paid almost $10 less for the bigger bottle (500 ml) than I ended up paying for the smaller (250 ml) bottle of the pink. I realize this is relative and depends on sellers, availability, and location (the 250ml pink bottle was purchased at $34 before shipping from over sea’s).Do I like one more than the other? Not really, although, I think the green version suits my personal skin needs better than the other at this point in time. They both are exceptional at what they do. Micellar solutions have become an integral part of my beauty regiment. These bottles last quite awhile and have removed my need to buy cleansing wipes and other makeup removers, which tend to break me out eventually.I hope this review was helpful to those trying to decide which product is right for you. Everyone’s skin and needs are different and to say “this ones better” or “that ones better” as a blanket statement doesn’t really help anyone make an informed choice, IMO.

Soft skin and hydrated
I bought this after reading about it from an article. It has a light fragrance that smells good. I have combination skin (T-zone oily in summer and some dry areas mixed with oil in winter). My skin does feel hydrated after using this. I do not feel any dryness or oiliness after using it. My skin actually felt smooth. I do not wear much makeup so I cannot really say if it removes makeup well or not. I did have eyeliner other day and it did remove it. When I look at the cotton, there was some brown on it so it does remove some dirt (I’m not sure as well as my other toners though). I do have acne-prone skin and I haven’t broken out because of this so that is a good sign. However, since I am not breaking out at the moment, I cannot say if it clears my acne either. I bought this $15 for 100ml, which is quite a lot to me but I was curious. I will have to use it longer to see if I would buy it again. Overall, it is a good product but not “amazing” or a “miracle” yet to me. Time will tell.

Very good. Combo/oily skin. Little oilier during hormonal time, & living here in Texas. Cleans well. Use before washing face. No dryness and irritation. Store in fridge in order to feel nicer.

El mejor agua micelar a mi parecer. Y los vendedores una pasada, se equivocaron de producto e inmediatamente me lo cambiaron retirándolo y reentregandolo en menos de dos dÃas.
