Rare deal: Drew Barrymore, 49, says this micellar cleanser is 'the best' — it's down to $13

Bioderma put micellar water on the map. Many brands have followed suit with their own version of the buzzy product, but none have lived up to the hype quite like the original: Sensibio H2O. Drew Barrymore called it "by far the best makeup remover I've ever used," but it does so much more: It'll streamline your skin care routine and allow you to wash your face without regular water (even if you don't wear makeup). Some reviewers say it helps prevent wrinkles since there's less scrubbing and tugging at your skin. And for your shopping pleasure, Bioderma is currently offering the top-rated micellar water for just $13 (down from $19).

Why is it a good deal? 💰

A celeb-loved cleanser can set you back big bucks, but one thing we love about Drew Barrymore is she revels in affordable skin care. A 16.7 fluid-ounce size of Bioderma's cleanser is regularly $19, so with this deal you can save yourself a sweet $6 that you can use on something else (like that morning Starbucks!).

Why do I need this? 🤔

First thing's first: What's micellar water? Micelles are defined as molecular aggregates formed by substances dispersed in a liquid phase. In short, it's... science? Now, if you're like me and you favored more creative subjects in school, just think of it as soft, bubbly water that'll cleanse your skin quickly without stripping it. Barrymore says she uses it in various ways, including as the first step in her double-cleansing routine. "I also call it a pre-wash," she said. "Sometimes just to get the pollutants off your face before you even cleanse."

Whether you're a makeup enthusiast or minimalist, Bioderma's micellar water could be your new best friend. The cleanser instantly wipes away makeup and other grime. Some fans use it as a toner, which makes sense given its balancing, skin-protecting properties. Formulated with a pH of around 5.5 and purified pharmaceutical-grade water, Sensibio H2O preserves the skin's natural protective film. This helps protect against pollutants and external irritants, leaving your skin looking fresh and feeling soft.

What reviewers say 💬

Once a beauty industry secret for professionals in the know (and the celebs they used it on), the secret is obviously out: Over 45,000 five-star reviewers rave about Sensibio H2O at Amazon. Plus, more than 20,000 bottles of this micellar water have been bought in the last month alone.

Pros 👍

"I love this one!" shared one shopper. "This micellar water leaves your face feeling like you just washed it with water and cleanser. Doesn't feel oily or like you have residue on your face. It just feels clean! Highly recommend."

One loyal customer revealed that this micellar water is their "most re-purchased item ever" and added: "I’ve been using this Bioderma micellar water for at least 10 years now, I’ve tried all sizes and types and the pink one is my favorite. I have sensitive skin with redness and this is perfect to clean my face in the mornings or to double cleanse my skin at night."

Reviewers shared that they've seen an improvement in redness too. "My face has red splotches in the morning that visibly reduce as soon as I use this," another five-star fan shared.

Cons 👎

One user noted that "it's not the best at getting my mascara off, but I'm okay with that." They added, "I have yet to find a product that gets my mascara and face makeup off that my skin can tolerate. This product does not dry out my skin and does a great job of getting face makeup off."

Another shopper agreed: "This removes lightweight foundation and concealer, but cannot remove mascara."
