I usually cleanse my face with micellar cleansing water because water from the sink is too harsh for my face skin. I don't wear makeup so I used this cleansing water to cleanse my face as I do with micellar cleansing water. I adore the smell and this is really gentle. My skin felt comfortable and moisturised after using it. Unfortunately, after using this cleansing water for more than a week, I noticed that I was getting blackheads. I guess this cleansing water is good to gently remove makeup but not as a cleanser.
