Avene Micellar Lotion Packaging
Avene Micellar Lotion has a simple see through bottle packaging with a flip open cap attached to it. An opening under the cap eases accessibility, thus the packaging makes detection of the quantity easy and as the cap shuts tight it remains spill proof while travelling. Even in the travel sized version shown here which comes free with purchase of any other Avene product, the packaging remains similar. Also there is a nice refreshing fragrance added which does not feel likely to disturb sensitive noses.
Avene Micellar Lotion Appearance
The colorless lotion resembles the consistency of water. One needs to simply pour out a few drops of Avene Micellar Lotion on a cotton pad and apply directly on the skin. Being a multipurpose lotion it can be used as a makeup remover as well as a simple cleansing lotion. After pouring a few drops on a cotton pad I hold it for a few seconds on my eyelid and then swipe it off very gently. For lip makeup removal I follow the same way as mentioned before. And for the face I just swipe it across the facial skin a few times till all the base makeup comes off. It removes every trace of makeup as well as impurities on the skin. Whether it is a waterproof gel based liner or a stain proof lip color, it removes every bit of the product.
My experience with Avene Micellar Lotion
There is no stickiness or greasy residue once the product is used. Owing to the same reason one can simply use this Avene Micellar Lotion as a cleansing lotion without rinsing it off. It takes off impurities, dirt as well as makeup and leaves behind squeaky clean skin. It does not sting even if the product gets into the eyes.
Also, during every use one needs only a few drops of Avene Micellar Lotion to get rid of a whole lot of makeup. And it makes this one time investment look economical in the long run. In fact, while travelling one can replace this one product with makeup wipes, cleansing lotion and toners. Over the time it keeps the skin squeaky clean without stripping off natural oils like any facial wash or adding a greasy layer like other makeup removers.
Overall, Avene Micellar Lotion is a soothing and calming, paraben and alcohol free skin treat which cleanses skin of makeup and impurities without disturbing the pH balance of the skin or adding any residue behind. Highly recommended for any type of makeup removal of all ages as well as all skin types even sensitive beauties.
