Olay luminous micellar water2/28/2024 This has a cool feel on skin and I thought for a moment it might contain menthol but that isn’t listed on the ingredients so, I’m assuming the witch hazel might be what causes that fresh, cool feel. It never strips, it never leaves skin tight or dry, that’s a total plus. I really believe that’s one of the areas that micellar water excels. This is a pretty standard formula that doesn’t leave behind a film and doesn’t dry my skin out after using it. I can’t say my skin looked brighter but it does tone skin and it will remove any excess makeup that my cleanser left behind should I wish to use it as a double-cleanser of sorts. Apparently it’s supposed to leave skin looking brighter as well as tones it (courtesy the niacinamide in the mix). It contains some ok ingredients such as rice bran, aloe extract, and glycerin. This is a good formula if you want to remove your facial makeup quickly without drying skin out. The same holds true for Olay’s packaging but I found if you push down with a lighter hand you can avoid the mess that the Yes To packaging makes. If you recall the new Yes to Coconut Ultra Hydrating Micellar Cleansing Water and Yes to Cucumbers Micellar Cleansing Water have a similiar style packaging but I was disappointed that whenever I placed a cotton square on top and pumped down a lot of the water would squirt everywhere and make a mess. The price isn’t bad and the top pump is quite handy if not a little messy. Olay Luminous Advanced Tone Perfecting Micellar Water is available in a 8 oz bottle for around $6.99 to $9.99 depending where you purchase it. However, I won’t be adding Olay Luminous Advanced Tone Perfecting Micellar Water to that quick remove and go to bed list. I like my skincare cleansing routine and it is rare that I don’t embrace it at the end of a long day but there are times I get home late and I just want to head to bed and cleansing waters can be damn convenient. I tend to use micellar water when I’m busy being lazy and I just want to get to bed. I will say it’s a nicer toner and I can see myself using it for this reason alone but as a cleansing water? Well, no! I’ll explain why that is in a minute. I think if you use Olay skincare this might be a welcome addition to their line up although, I have to admit I found some major faults with it. None the less Olay has introduced their own micellar water that will be available as part of their permanent skincare collection. Olay Luminous Advanced Tone Perfecting Micellar Water is now available and perhaps a little late to the ballgame considering the cleansing water trend isn’t quite at its height in popularity.
