Neutrogena Clear & Soothe Micellar Jelly (200ml)
₦8,000.00
What it is
This is a micellar jelly makeup remover: formula described as a jelly texture with micellar technology that “melts” into the skin to remove traces of makeup, dirt and oil.
It is enriched with turmeric (Curcuma longa extract) which is included for its calming / anti-inflammatory properties.
It is oil-free, non-staining, non-comedogenic (i.e., formulated so it doesn’t block pores) and aimed at stressed, spot-prone, combination or dehydrated skin.
Key features & benefits
Removes makeup, including waterproof makeup, while being gentle.
Soothes skin that is stressed/spot-prone rather than stripping it. The turmeric and jelly formula are supposed to “melt” rather than tug.
No unwanted residue. Wipes or rinses clean. Oil-free. Great for combination/dehydrated skin.
Things to check / possible drawbacks
Although gentle, it does contain fragrance / parfum, and some botanical extracts (turmeric), plus limonene, eugenol, benzyl benzoate, geraniol (which may be sensitising for very sensitive skin) according to the ingredients list.
“Stressed spot-prone skin” and “combination or dehydrated skin” are mentioned; if you have very oily skin, or extremely sensitive skin, you may want to test a patch first.
If you are using heavy waterproof makeup or SPF, you might still want a follow-up cleanser (double cleanse) — micellar removers are good but sometimes not the sole step for very heavy or long-wear makeup.
Availability: While I found the product in many markets, some users in certain countries suggest it may be harder to find or perhaps discontinued or low stock in places. For example: > “It shows currently unavailable on Amazon … this is such gentle yet effective cleanser would like to repurchase again.”

Price & authenticity: In Nigeria you’ll want to check that you’re getting a genuine product (correct packaging, expiry date, sealed), especially with international brands and imports.
