The Edyt Score
4.4 / 5.0
Targets
4.4/5
For a no-rinse wipe when skin hates a tight cleanse. Follow with moisturizer. Micellar is not the last step.
Formula standards
4.4/5
Watery, on a pad. It can leave a film if you do not follow with a rinse or a cream.
The verdict
Fine for light makeup. Use a balm if you wear waterproof mascara.
