Drew Barrymore says this cult-fave cleanser is 'by far the best' — and it's on sale
Bioderma put micellar water on the map. Many brands followed suit with their answer to the buzzworthy cleansing water, but none have lived up to the hype as much as the original from Bioderma: Sensibio H2O. Once a beauty industry secret for professionals in the know (and the celebs they used it on), the secret's out to the public now. In fact, 33,000+ five star-reviewers love it in addition to its many celebrity fans.
Drew Barrymore called it "by far the best makeup remover I've ever used," but it also does so much more than that. It'll cut down time in your skincare routine and allow you to wash your face without water even if you don't wear makeup. Reviewers even say it'll help prevent wrinkles. And that's not all! Now you can get a deal on two large bottles of Bioderma (originally $17 each) for just $24. If you aren't ready to dive into the two large bottles, you can dip your toe in the micellar pond with this $5 trial size, too.
First thing's first — what even is micellar water? If you aren't already familiar, this unique product is made up of micelles with excellent cleansing and makeup removing properties. Micelles are defined as molecular aggregates formed by substances dispersed in a liquid phase. In short, it's science. If you're like me and you favored more creative subjects in school, just think of this stuff as soft bubbly water that'll cleanse your skin quickly without stripping it.
If you're a makeup enthusiast, Bioderma's micellar water will be your new best friend. It instantly wipes away makeup (and other grime) from your face. It also works well as an overall cleanser for any skin type including the most sensitive skin. "I love that this gets my face just as clean as cleanser and water before I got to bed," a five-star reviewer shared on Amazon. "No water everywhere to clean up, and it's quicker and doesn't wake me up like water washing can do. Love this product, will not use anything else!"
Drew Barrymore herself uses it in different ways, sometimes as the first step in her double-cleansing routine. "I also call it a pre-wash," she said. "Sometimes just to get the pollutants off your face before you even cleanse."
Some prefer to incorporate it into their skincare routine as a toner which makes sense given its balancing and skin-protecting properties. Formulated with a pH of around 5.5 and purified pharmaceutical-grade water, Sensibio H2O preserves the skin's natural protective film. This helps keep pollutants and external irritants away, leaving your skin looking fresh, feeling soft and free of any unnecessary oil.
While Sensibio H2O technically doesn't have anti-aging ingredients, this gentle cleansing water is still great for aging skin. Reviewers note that it'll even help prevent wrinkles. "This Micellar water removes and breaks down your makeup so easily that it is like you never wore any to begin with," one said. "Less scrubbing means less wrinkles, and any gal can get on board with that! 10/10 for me!"
"Love this — wish I would have used it for the last 20 years; probably wouldn't be fighting under eye wrinkles if I had," another said. "Takes my makeup off with one swipe and doesn't dry my skin."
Aside from wrinkles, reviewers shared that they've seen an improvement in age spots, too. "I have two dark-ish age spots on my cheek and I swear they're slightly lighter lately, and the only thing I've changed is adding this product," a five-star fan shared. "I don't want to make claims I can't back up, but I really feel like this has helped lighten them."
So, they love it, we love it, Drew loves it! You'll love it too, promise.
