WHAMISA Organic Flowers Cleansing Water is a lovely new product by the brand WHAMISA who is famous for their organic products. They decided to continue Organic Flowers series which already contains cleansing foam, gel, cream, toner and body wash in it. I personally love this range so much that even though I didn't need another cleansing water as I have to finish ones I have, I still went out and bought it when it came out.

My experience:
WHAMISA Organic Flowers Cleansing Water is based on aloe leaf water instead of regular tap and filtered deal. Even though it is a make-up remover, it is still packed with essential ingredients that condition the skin instead of only stripping it. I love that it has beta-glucan and rosemary oil in it. The cleansing water comes in a weird shaped bottle. It looks like foreign drink rather than a make-up remover. I guess it's all because of the white metal screw-off top. It still looks very cute though.
The cleansing water has a classic texture. It is fluid like water and spreads like water. The floral scent is different from the water though. It is quite mild in comparison to the toner or the cleansing oil from this brand. Out of the entire range, this is actually the product with least strong scent. there is a small dropper hole in the bottle in order to disperse the product. I do not like that part. A pump would be much better, considering that this is organic/low preservative product and shelf life is relatively short.
Cleanser is very good when it comes to removing all kinds f make-up. I used lip stain, liner, brow pen, mascara and eye shadow to show you that it actually removes nearly everything in one swipe. Pretty good for a cleansing water. To date I know only two product from K-world that do the job better than WHAMISA (it's Laneige and TYF if you are wondering) and I tried a loooot. It doesn't irritate my eyes and leaves no oily residue on the skin. If you like WHAMISA products as much as I do, you could try this one out. If you look for some hard-core make-up removal then choose TYF Back To Iceland Cleansing Water.
