Common questions
Is Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanse fragrance-free?
Yes. No fragrance, essential oils or fragrance allergens are listed in its ingredients. Garnier also describes it as fragrance-free.
Does Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanse contain alcohol?
Yes. Alcohol denat., a drying alcohol, is the 4th of 8 ingredients, high enough to be a main ingredient. It makes products feel light and dry quickly, but can dry out or irritate sensitive skin.
Is Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanse safe for fungal acne?
None of the ingredients usually flagged for fungal acne are listed: fatty acids with 11–24 carbons and their esters, polysorbates, plant oils and butters, or ferments. 2 of its ingredients aren't in our glossary yet, so check those yourself. The evidence comes mainly from lab studies of yeast growth, and fungal acne needs a diagnosis from a GP or dermatologist.
Is Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanse suitable for sensitive skin?
It contains drying alcohol high in the list, which can bother sensitive skin. Patch-test it before using it all over.
Is there a dupe for Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanse?
The closest formula from another brand in our catalogue is La Roche-Posay Sensitive Micellar Water (43% ingredient overlap, 6 of the top 8 ingredients in common), followed by CeraVe Hydrating Micellar Water Removes Makeup (36% ingredient overlap). A similar ingredient list doesn't guarantee the same concentrations, texture or results.
