GARNIER VS EVOLUDERM: THE BEST LOW-COST MICELLAR WATERS FOR SENSITIVE SKIN IN THE SKINCARE MARKET? UNDER 2EUR! PART 1.

Wednesday, August 9, 2023

It have been a few months since I started to test in depth this four micellar waters, and I have a few things to say as a combination to oily sensitive skin women.

As it is well know that Garnier has one of the most famous micellar waters lines in the world, however, after the undeniable success of its first micellar water (the one with the pink cap), and after having released a wide variety of micellar waters whose purpose is to adapt to consummers necessities, is time to put their range for sensitive skin to the test, contrasting them with some low-cost unknown brands that may surprise by how nice they can work, because even if Garnier micellar waters are inexpensinves, there some incredible options for less than 2EUR, can you believe it?


GARNIER SKIN ACTIVE MICELLAR WATER FOR SENSITIVES EYES AND SKIN (BLUE CAP) VS EVOLUDERM MICELLAR WATER FOR REACTIVE SKIN WITH REDNESS.

The one by Garnier, claims to eliminate waterproof makeup, calming the skin at the same time, without leaving any greassy residue, being suitable to use it on eyes (the face most sensitive area), having as one of the main ingredient cornflower water, that hepls to calm and aliviate the skin.

On the other hand, the one by Evoluderm, is particularly indicated for one of the most controversial types of sensitive skin: reactive with redness. Formulated without alcohol, it claims to remove in just one gesture makeup and impurities. The secret? Its formula enriched with Aloe Vera extract, that helps to calm the skin, and promotes wound healing.

MY EXPERIENCE.

Both micellar waters remove the makeup perfectly. In my case, four cotton pads were enough to remove all the makeup and impurities from my face, not leaving any trace: no watery eyes, no irritated skin, no dry lips, with either product!

The only thing that difference Garnier micellar water from the one by Evoluderm, is how the first one removes more easily waterproof and long lasting makeup (as exactly claims). But, instead of that, both are really good and affordable options for sensitive skin types.


GARNIER SKIN ACTIVE MICELLAR WATER FOR DRY AND SENSITIVE (PINK CAP) VS EVOLUDERM MICELLAR WATER FOR DRY AND SENSITIVE SKIN.

Both created for dry and sensitive skin, with the difference that the one by Evoluderm is formulated without alcohol with a 93% natural origin ingredients, promising to remove the makeup in just one gesture. While the one by Garnier claims to cleanse, hydrate, and remove makeup confortly, all in one, combined with moisturizing milk, in an hipollergenic and perfumeless formula.


MY EXPERIENCE.

Both of them are really effective on sensitive skin: no watery eyes, no skin irritations, and no dry lips. To me, they perform exactly the same, with the only fact that the one by Garnier seems like a watery cleansing milk (a meaningless variation of something that already exist: pure marketing).

In general, both brands have really nice micellar waters, but the most incredible fact is how for less than 2EUR (250ml), a brand can create such a good quality product for sensitive skin. By the way, another interesting fact, is how Garnier brake with the alcohol taboo in the skincare industry, coming to create hypoallergenic skincare products, with confortable formulas.

FAVORITES FRAGRANCES AT THE MOMENT: LONG-LASTING & AFFORDABLE.

Saturday, November 28, 2020

First of all, welcome to the officially first post of this blog. This idea to have a personal blog where I can share with people around the world things that I love and hate about beauty industry as skincare, makeup…, have been running in my head for so long, not really knowing at all how to start properly with this, so I fell so many times, but now, I think that finally I found my own style, and now I only need to work more on it. So….let´s start!

***********

In a few days we will be officially in Christmas time, so I think that is the perfect moment to write about my actual favorites afforable fragrances.

Personally when it comes about fragrances, my favorites one are those with florals, citric, oriental, or fruity notes! I can´t say that I hate woods in perfumes (at all), but is pretty difficult to me find a nice formulation that make me change my mind.From daily fragrances, to special occasions, even if I am a vanity beauty lover/junkie, I´m that type of person who think that you don´t need to break your bank account to feel good, and smell good for hours….if you choose good. This is why, I want to share with you my affordable options!

LA CABOTINE, BY GRÉS (PARIS).

I discovered this eau de cologne at Primor, a shop where you can buy makeup, skincare products, even scented candles! They always have offers, so I decided to try two of them, and I´m so in love with both of them, specially with the gold one. They smell really good, and the packaging are the cutest!

  • The gold one, is a fragrance from the oriental floral family for womens, whose notes are: tangerine, pink pepper, melon, jasmine, Tiare flower, peony, vetiver, patchouli, and amber.

  • The Fleur Splendide, is a fragrance from the Cyprus floral family for womens, and the smell behind this creation is Mylene Alran, a young perfumer from the southeast of France. The notes of this one are: bergamot, freesia, white peach, rose, jasmine, sandalwood, patchouli, amber, and musk.

FAR AWAY, BY AVON.

In the other hand, as some friends of my mother sell this international and well knowed brand particularly famous by their perfumes, and lipsticks, I decided to try two perfumes, and I don't regret the discovery: two long-lasting perfumes with lovely sweet notes, that last for days in clothes! They are: Far away infinity, and Far away glamour, even if I love them soo much, my favorites one is the first one (blue packaging). The container of both are elegant and simple.

  • Far away infinity, the smell behind this fruity floral family fragrance is Honorine Blanc, a Lebanese perfumer, that with 16 years old went to live in France, the notes of this perfume are: gardenia, bergamot, calendula, sambac jasmine, jasmine, orange blossom of the orange tree, vanilla, sandalwood, and patchouli.

  • Far away glamour, created by Jean Marc Chaillan, Veronica Casanova, and Mackenzie Reilly, the notes of this perfume are: black currants, grapefruit, pink pepper, Madagascar vanilla, lily root, orange blossoms of the orange tree, patchouli, black musk.
