Brilio.net - Facial cleansers are not only limited to facial wash, but there are also micellar water, toner, milk cleanser and cleansing balm. Of the various types of facial cleansers, micellar water is one of the most sought after products.
Micellar water is a water-based facial cleansing product, which contains glycerin and surfactant molecules (SLS) called micelles. Using micellar water is the first stage in the double cleansing process.
This skincare is formulated to remove dirt, dust and makeup residue that sticks to facial skin. Using this product will make the facial cleansing process more optimal because it can reach deeper layers of the skin.
Thanks to this function, currently there are many micellar water products sold on the market with various claims and ingredients. Like what recently went viral about micellar water which is effective in cleaning makeup optimally. The products in question are The Originote Hyalurose Micellar Water and Glad2Glow Cherry Blossom Betaine Micellar Water, both of which are priced at IDR 50 thousand.
In line with this, a beauty enthusiast with the account name @shelly.chandra decided to do a battle between the two to prove their claims. What do you think is more effective at removing makeup?

"So after watching this video, are you team g2g or jinot?" wrote the account owner in the description of the uploaded video, which briliobeauty.net quoted from the TikTok account @shelly.chandra, Wednesday (10/7).
At the beginning of the video, the account owner known as Shelly compares the contents of the two products, which both contain 300 ml. After that, Shelly tried to test the ability of the two micellar waters to remove makeup on the face. Shelly's face can be seen having been scribbled on using various makeup products, such as lipstick, contour and eyeliner.
He will clean the right side of his face using micellar water from the Glad2Glow product. Meanwhile, the left side of her face will be cleaned using micellar water from The Originote. Shelly started to wet a cotton swab with each micellar water product, then placed it on the eye area for 15 seconds before wiping it off.

When wiped, the make-up on Shelly's eye area was immediately removed in one swipe, although leaving a small amount of make-up remaining. However, when she wiped it next, the remaining makeup on Shelly's face immediately came clean. So, both have the ability to clean makeup quite well.
"Well, this jinot (The Originote) actually contains rose extract. So when you pour it onto cotton wool, you smell it, it really smells like that, you know. Just my personal opinion, as someone with super sensitive skin. "I kind of avoid products that contain fragrances," said Shelly.
Not only does it have a slightly fragrant smell, The Originote also has a slightly foamy liquid. However, it's not that annoying during the use process.
"G2G (Glad2Glow) doesn't have any fragrance, and it doesn't foam like that. This G2G contains cherry blossom," said Shelly.

After using the two micellar waters, Shelly also compared the condition of her facial skin. According to him, the micellar water from Glad2Glow makes his face a bit sticky, while The Originote doesn't feel sticky at all. However, after using the micellar water from Glad2Glow, and continuing with washing your face, the sticky feeling immediately disappeared.
"After we've finished cleaning our face all kinds of things, it doesn't feel dry, it doesn't feel pulled either, it's like smooth, you know, moist. But even though The Originote isn't sticky, it feels like it's dry, you know. The face is a little bit pulled," said Shelly.

So, in conclusion, both micellar water products have the ability to clean makeup quite well. It's just that, after using them, the two have differences in facial skin. The Originote will give a slight pulling effect, while the Glad2Glow actually makes the face feel moisturized even though it previously made the skin feel sticky.
