Sure, we've been hearing the buzz around micellar cleansing water for some time now. But with supermodel Ashley Graham's magnificent face as a testament to Bioderma Sensibio H2O's powers, we're convinced to give it a try.

When this model is working, her skin is working. So after a long day in heavy makeup, she counts on this very special, gentle yet strong cleanser from France to restore her to her natural state of beauty.

Graham told The Cut that using this "classic" micellar water to remove makeup means, "I don’t break out...I have it with me at all times but especially when I’m working.”

As we regular folk move back to wearing makeup again (or braving the world barefaced), we must also get back in the habit of proper cleansing. Bioderma Sensibio H20 makes it easy, and Amazon makes it a steal — it's just $5 for 3.38 fluid ounce bottle and $13 (was $15) for a large 16.7-ounce bottle of the No. 1 bestselling miracle worker. The sale price for the large bottle makes it just 78 cents an ounce, and this bottle will last for ages.

And if you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And even those without Prime get free shipping on orders of $25 or more).

If Ashley Graham entrusts her valuable face to Bioderma's micellar water (along with Amazon's army of 22,300 five-star fans), we can too! Read on to find out what shoppers are saying.

All skin welcome

Graham has described her skin type as "combination" — oily in summer and dry in winter. Since Bioderma Sensibio H2O is a gentle formula with minimal ingredients, it cleanses thoroughly without stripping.

"It's like a dirt detective!" cheered one happy shopper: "This stuff can find all the day's dust, makeup, goop on your face that soap cannot touch...For someone with combination skin, this is the only thing you need on your face before you sleep, and your face wakes up feeling so hydrated."

Another five-star shopper testified: "Acne-prone, oily skin APPROVED!!! Wow! Just wow.... It’s freaking pure magic. My face feels fresh, dewy and sooooo dang soft. I’ve noticed that since I’ve added this product, specifically, my skin absorbs serums and moisturizers much, much better. I’ve even noticed my pores looking smaller over the past three days."

So, is soap and water passé?

Even shoppers who don't don makeup prefer using this no-rinse product to old-fashioned face washing.

One shopper explained: "I use it in the mornings instead of washing my face, which can be stripping if done too often, and at night after I shower to make sure all the makeup's off. I've tried a few different micellar waters but [they do] not compare. And also, who doesn't like feeling fancy and French?"

Easy on the eyes

As a pro model, Graham may change eye makeup several times in one day. Because Sensibio is so gentle, this hypoallergenic, paraben-free cleanser is her top choice for disappearing mascara, eye shadow and liner! Put a few drops on a cotton pad, press gently and voila!

"No rubbing!" one user exclaimed. "Slam dunk for sensitive eyes and works superbly on the whole face...That makes it so much faster at the end of the day when all I want to do is go to bed...It is also rinse-free, being a micellar makeup remover. Sometimes I rinse anyway, but it’s great when it's the end of the day, I’m tired and I know I don’t have to."

"You'll throw all your other cleansing products away," said another. "I promise you your face is not clean until you use it. It only takes a tiny bit. And it also removes makeup like magic. Including the most stubborn mascara and will NOT burn your eyes. Leaves your skin soft, plump and hydrated. Super gentle."
