Gio, thanks for the honest review! I love beauty blogs that don’t rate every product 5/5 so that people just buy things. Very refreshing… -Nicky

In reply to kaido. Kaido, no micellar water isn't enough to remove sunscreen. I always double cleanse at night to make sure every last bit comes off. Thanks, so glad to hear that. :)

In reply to SherryG. Sherry, yes it's a humectant based moisturizer so it infuses skin with plenty of moisture, which is just what dry skin needs. But dry skin usually has its protective barrier compromised so you need a moisturizer on top to seal it all in. Oily skin doesn't have this problem. It can enjoy its hydrating benefits without the need to add more oil later. :)

Hi Gio. Is micellar water enough to remove sunscreen? I don’t use makeups at all, but applied mineral SPF religiously during day time nowadays so I double-cleanse at night with oil makeup remover and a cleanser; is that too much? Or I can go down with using just a good micellar water or a cleanser for removing sunscreen? Love your constant blog updates this past few weeks BTW.

I’ll have to try the Hydraboost, I’ve heard good things about it and your post just reaffirmed it. However, the Gel has fragrance and I’m allergic. The Hydraboost Cream is fragrance free. Even though it says it’s for dry skin, I’ve heard it is still pretty light, similar to the Gel. I’ve also heard that topping it with another moisturizer seals in the moisture even better. Thanks for the reviews.
