Hey Guys!
After running out and in desperate need of a make up remover I popped down to my local Boots and normally I would have just grabbed my usual choice of micellar water the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water for sensitive skin, but I saw that Simple was on offer so I decided to give their new Water Boost skincare range a try!
I've used a few different micellar cleansing water products now, some having oil bases and some just been specifically for delicate and sensitive skin so I'm always open to try different brand's line of cleansing products. For ages people have raved about Simple's Water Boost cleansing line and at lot of YouTuber's I watch, like Sophia Chang and Jenn Im have been partnering up with Simple to showcase and review their new range. So from watching them and reading many other reviews and impressions on the micellar water and hydrating boost I thought I would give it a try for myself!

One thing I notice every time I use the product to take off my eye make up is it doesn't make my eyes sting. I've had some occasions when using Garnier Micellar Water when I've put too much product on the cotton pad and when I go to wipe my mascara and eyeliner it leaks into my eye and stings like crazy! Where as, so far I've not experienced any stinging or burning to my eyes which is great! Other than not stinging my eye it is also great at breaking down my tough eye makeup like my mascara. Normally it takes a while to get my mascara and eyeliner to budge but with the Water Boost Micellar Water it lifts really quick so I don't have to keep rubbing my eyes and making them inflamed and irritated :)
When I've finished removing all my make up my skin is left feeling soft! Sometimes after wearing make up my skin can be quite dry but every time I've used this micellar water my skin is left feeling hydrated and not stripped. Other than the hydrating aspects of the product the smell is also something I always think about because if it doesn't have any perfume or fragrant smell it tends to be better for my skin, and this micellar water has no smell to it, it is very neutral which proves they are true to their claim of not having any artificial perfume or colour in their products!
So far I'm really liking this product and it has helped keep my skin, especially when I've been wearing make up all day, bright and hydrated :) I just wish they did a smaller version for travelling as the bottle is quite heavy and big, so if they did a small bottle like Garnier I would be even more sold on the product!

Simple Water Boost Hydrating Booster
I've never seen a brand do a product similar to a primer, but specially for hydration. It is definitely something new so I was excited to give it a try and see if it would do anything for my skin. They give three suggestions of how to use it:
1. As a hydrating primer layer
2. Add to your moisturiser for a booster
3. Apply directly to the really dry areas before applying moisturiser.
I've been using it as a hydrating primer layer then occasionally as a booster and adding it to my Nivea moisturiser. I didn't notice a big difference straight away but that can be quite normal for most skincare products because it takes time for them to make a difference. After a few more days of using it in my skincare routine both in the morning and evening I started to notice a difference to the dry patches on my face, such as around my temples, on my cheeks and around my eyebrows. You only need a little bit for it to go a long way, I've been using around a bean sized dollop and and with just a small amount it covers my entire face and dries quickly. One thing I like is that it doesn't have a sticky consistency, so it doesn't go tacky or anything it absorbs into the skin very fast! I dislike products that go really sticky and tacky as it just makes products that I'm putting on top look odd and then it sits weirdly.
It is a very lightweight product that doesn't feel heavy on the skin and it does make my skin look much brighter and when put into my moisturiser my skin has a fresher look, kind of a dewy glow. Similar to the micellar water it doesn't have any fragrance or perfume scent and it has a pure clear appearance so they haven't added any unnecessary colours either! From looking at the packaging I like that they explain why the minerals benefit your skin for hydration and how the plant extracts are used to maintain hydration and is a natural ingredients that is great for the skin!
I would recommend if anyone has dry skin, especially since it has been very cold in the UK at the moment, to try out Simple's new Water Boost range, as I have noticed a different with using the hydrating boost! For the price I paid I was very happy (but it was on offer the time I brought it so it was inexpensive).
What is your skin type? Let me know in the comments below!
See you on Sunday my lovelies! ❤
