Water-Free Facial Cleanser
Simply use a small amount of Garnier Micellar Oil-Infused Water, R89,95 for 400ml, on a cotton round to rid away any dirt and grime from the day. There’s no need to rinse, plus the oil-infused-micelles leave the skin feel comfortable and not moisture-stripped.
Water-Free Shampoo
Dry shampoo is by no means a new thing, but a no-rinse hair cleansing foam is definitely something we’re interested in putting to the test! Waterless Whipped Clean Foam Dry Shampoo Instant Hair Revival, R169,99 for 160ml, is a fabulous option to try when you’re out of water.

w&h Favourite: Water-Free Body Wash
DryBath Water-less Body Wash, R396 for 250ml is by far the most water-wise product on our list. One bottle equals up to 15 whole body washes! Drybath comes with 15 single use ‘wash wipes’ to smooth the cleansing gel onto your body with, and the best part – these are biodegradable too.
