Hello everyone!
I've discovered a skincare gem that I just can't stop raving about - Synergetic's natural micellar water.
I've known friends who swear by their cleaning products, but I was excited to try their skincare line, especially since it's all natural.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find this micellar water in stores like Magnit or I just haven't noticed it.
I heard about it through a promotion at Zolotoe Yabloko, where they were offering free gifts with purchase and extra points on your card.
We bought the 200ml size, but they also come in 400ml.
As a bonus, we got two toothpastes and a macaroon in a box!
So, you can get this product at Zolotoe Yabloko while the promotion is on and get some awesome freebies!
I have to say, buying in-store is way more fun than shopping online!
Below, I'll show you the product, its effects, and my experience with it.
Description:
I've been using the Synergetic micellar water for a week now, and I'm really impressed with how well it removes makeup, smooths out my skin, and cleans my face.
The active moisturizing complex keeps my skin feeling soft and supple, and the lactic acid helps to boost my skin's natural barrier function and stimulate collagen and elastin production.
It's also helped to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The aloe vera extract helps to balance my skin's moisture levels, and the natural almond and babassu oils leave my skin feeling incredibly soft and comfortable.
The trehalose prebiotic, combined with the plant-based humectant isomerate, helps to maintain my skin's natural microbiome.
Description Ingredients:
Aqua, Glycerin (plant-based humectant), Cocamidopropyl Betaine (gentle coconut-derived surfactant), Betaine (plant-based humectant), 1,2 Hexanediol (natural humectant), Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate (natural solubilizer), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (aloe vera extract), Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract (grape seed extract), Babassu Oil Polyglyceryl-4 Esters (babassu oil), Sweet Almond Oil Polyglyceryl-4 Esters (almond oil), Sodium Hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid), Trehalose (natural polysaccharide prebiotic), Saccharide Isomerate (plant-based humectant), Sodium PCA (natural moisturizing factor), Lactic Acid (alpha-hydroxy acid), Parfum, Ethyl Lauroyl Arginate HCl, Potassium Sorbate (preservatives), Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Hydroxide (pH regulators).
You can also buy it on Wild Berries, Ozon, Golden Apple, and other online stores.
The product comes in 200ml and 400ml sizes.
I bought the 200ml size on Golden Apple for 290 rubles.
Right now, they have a promotion on Synergetic products, offering free gifts and bonus points.
Here's what the bottle looks like (and the gift toothpaste):
The design is pretty sweet, and the bottle looks great on my countertop.
There's some info about the product on the back, which is always a nice touch.
The cap is pretty standard, but it gets the job done.
Press the cap and it opens up, revealing the product inside.
The product is completely transparent and smells like nothing - just like water.
Honestly, there's no hint of a scent at all.
Some people might love that, since some folks get anxious about strong smells.
I personally prefer scented cosmetics, but I'm not bothered by odorless stuff either.
The product claims to be natural, and the ingredients seem pretty good, so no harsh chemical smells here.
Now, let me tell you about my skin.
It's been a bit of a weird winter - usually it's oily, but this time around it's super dry - I have no idea why...
I've been breastfeeding, not getting enough vitamins, and maybe it's the retinol creams...
Generally, I'm 30+, and my skin is more on the dry side, especially after washing my face, I get these tight and dry feelings, and I've got some fine lines around my eyes.
My eyes are super sensitive to micellar water, almost everything stings them.
This micellar water doesn't sting!
And that's a huge plus for me personally.
I can confidently remove my eye makeup with it.
It cleans really well.
One wipe and my skin is almost spotless.
Of course, it's not going to tackle super-long-lasting makeup, but overall, it cleans really well for a natural product.
I'm happy with it.
It easily removes non-stain makeup with a cotton pad.
For more stubborn products, I'd recommend getting a separate makeup remover, possibly a two-phase one.
I'm really happy with the Synergetic micellar water.
It's natural, has a good formula, doesn't sting my eyes, cleans my skin well, removes makeup and other impurities, and doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky or tight.
I always rinse my face after using micellar water, though.
The product lasts a while, and the price is reasonable – I don't see any downsides.
Five stars and I highly recommend it!
