Micellar water dries out skin

Washing your face is not always the best way to remove makeup. Hard water, dry skin, lack of cleansing and the need to scrub the skin are factors in favor of choosing micellar water.

I like to wash my face with water and, with all other options, I usually prefer the 2-step Asian cleansing system. But there are not the best days when you need something else, more delicate, involving minimal contact with water. The fact is that I wear lenses, and in general my eyes are very sensitive, so hydrophilic oil is not always a suitable option. For trips when you don’t want to carry large jars with you and it’s not clear what the tap water is, I also prefer to take a proven small bottle of a good makeup remover.

I don’t do very thick, complex, bright makeup, so I don’t need something so powerful that erases makeup in one motion. But I have a number of other requirements for such products: most importantly, they should not be aggressive and irritate already tired eyes, should not contain oils (all two-phase liquids are a no-no), and should not dry out the skin around the eyes and lips (which is often micellar water is a sin). The price should also be adequate, the volume of such funds is small, and they are used up quickly.

I have been looking for something that suits my needs for a long time, and finally found a suitable product from Lumene. Essentially, it is a soft micellar gel (the main cleansing component is the same as in micellar products - poloxamer 184). This semi-gel water is not colored or flavored. Although a slight soapy smell, like micellar water, is still present. I like the gel texture, it’s easy to pour onto a cotton pad and doesn’t drip onto the skin. I am also satisfied with how makeup is removed. Not very quickly, but there is no film, the skin does not redden or dry out, nothing is smeared. It is enough to hold the disc for 15-20 seconds and then remove the residue with gentle movements.

I don’t use waterproof makeup products, I can’t say anything about them, regular mascara/eye shadow/eyebrow pencil/matte lipsticks wash off easily. There is no desire to go wash either, the skin feels clean and fresh. But whenever possible, I either wash my face afterwards or wipe my face with tonic/thermal water. The composition is soft, but surfactants are still present, and it is advisable not to leave them on the skin.

The most important thing is that this water is really suitable for people with contact lenses and irritated eyes. No film, burning, or cloudiness in the eyes! It is written on the bottle that the formula is designed specifically for gentle cleansing of the skin and is suitable for those who wear lenses, and in a rare case: the manufacturer’s words are true.

Volume 100 ml, price about 600 rubles

As I write, I understand that removing makeup is no longer my thing, because I’ve stopped using any foundation, concealer, or even powder for several months now, and to wash off eyebrow pencil and mascara (mine is washed off with “stockings”) warm water) and shadows, water and cleansing gel are enough.

However, I have two makeup removers that have been with me since the days of using BB creams. This is a large bottle of Garnier SKIN NATURALS micellar water (400 ml) and a bottle of Yves Rocher ELIXIR JEUNESSE micellar gel (200 ml). I bought the water myself, and received the gel as a gift with purchase.

Only lazy people haven’t written about Garnier micellar water, so I’ll say without going into detail that the gel is better.

Water does not completely remove long-lasting matte lipsticks and eyeliners, but gel does so the first time. And in general, if you first wipe your face with gel and then wash with water and cleanser, your skin will feel cleaner and fresher.

The bottle with Yves Rocher ELIXIR JEUNESSE micellar gel also says about detox and protection from negative environmental factors, but somehow I didn’t notice anything like that, and it has too little contact with the skin to have such an effect.

Both are good. If you choose by effectiveness, then the Yves Rocher gel wins. But Garnier water wins on price: 400 ml costs only about 250 rubles, while 200 ml of the Yves Rocher product costs 450 rubles.

I mainly use micellar products. Among the budget segment, I would like to highlight water from the Polish brand Evelyn. I was attracted by its fashionable pink bottle and the inscription on it “removes waterproof makeup.” Among the advantages, I note that it removes makeup and its residues well and cleanses the skin. After using it, I don’t feel a feeling of tightness; on the contrary, it feels like I wiped my face with tonic. Skin is refreshed and moisturized.

But it also has a drawback, or rather, a function that does not work. I have waterproof mascara from the same brand and it’s generally difficult to remove with anything. Even when removing makeup with a special oil, you have to make childish efforts. So, I had high hopes for this micellar water. I thought that she would help me, but a miracle did not happen. The mark on the bottle was clearly made for advertising purposes... If you do not take this point into account, the water is pleasant to use and does not cause irritation or dryness. Price: about 250 rubles.

I had many attempts to fall in love with micellar waters, but each time I abandoned them in favor of regular cleansing gels. This continued until recently, when I began to monitor how well I cleaned my skin every time. Wiping my face with a light peeling toner, I wondered why there was so much unwashed foundation on the cotton pad. And this went on for several weeks. I changed my foundation, changed my cleanser, but I was still dissatisfied with the quality of cleansing. How can I make masks and apply subsequent care to such dirty skin? I thought and slowly looked towards the micellar waters.

Before this, I had all the usual micellar waters - Garnier, L'Oreal, pink Bioderma. I used them mainly at the dacha, at work or on trips, and also removed long-lasting lipsticks, which I really love.

I never liked removing eye makeup with micellar, and I still don’t like it to this day for the reason that the product still gets into my eyes, stings or spreads like a soapy veil, and it doesn’t make it any more comfortable. In addition, you still have to go wash this film off your eyes, which means you have to wash your face this way and that.

I got Seantree micellar water with hyaluronic acid at a discount when Podruzhka was doing some kind of promotion. The jar contains 500 ml, which will last me for a year, or even more. It costs 650 rubles minus the card discount.

The description on the website says that this product effectively and delicately dissolves stubborn makeup and draws out its remnants from the pores. Thanks to the hyaluronic acid included in the composition, the product cares for the skin without drying it out, leaving it soft and smooth.. This is all true. After this micellar, the skin is moisturized and clean, and there are no traces of makeup on the cotton pads. I really feel clean.

I tried removing eye makeup once, but as always, I didn’t like it. Just in case, I will warn those who like to do this - use it carefully, if it gets into your eyes there is some oiliness and discomfort.

If simple makeup from the face can be washed off with some gels or foam cleansers (even if this is not very correct), then not all such products are suitable for removing, for example, mascara. Therefore, I prefer to remove eye makeup first, and so far the most convenient and practical product that does this task well for me remains micellar water (solution/lotion).

I’ll tell you about the Eo laboratorie micellar solution, which attracted attention primarily because of its normal composition with a mild surfactant (Sodium Cocoamphoacetate). It’s not that this is very important for me personally, it just seems to me that it’s good if it coincides that the composition is not bad and the product is not useless.

A little from the description:

The micellar solution contains 95% plant-derived ingredients. The composition includes sea source water, which prevents moisture loss and has anti-inflammatory properties. Only natural preservatives and dyes are used in production.

Aqua, Glycerin, Sea Water, Organic Bidens Pilosa Extract, Hydrogenated Prunus amygdalus Oil, Hydrolyzed Rice Protein, Nelumbo essential Oil, Rosa Domascena essential Oil (Rose oil), Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Sorbic Acid.

The product looks like ordinary water, colorless and practically odorless. The bottle is equipped with a dispenser on the lid, with which you can easily splash the required amount of water onto the disc.

Now about why I like this micellar. The most important thing is that it copes with its main task: it helps you get rid of makeup quickly and easily. To remove mascara (which is what I usually use micellar water for), I apply the pads to my eyes for a few seconds, and then carefully remove the makeup. I don’t have to scrub my skin thoroughly or wear out a bunch of discs. Well, after the makeup removal procedure, you can safely use the cleanser without fear that there will be stains under the eyes.

Another advantage of this water is that it does not irritate the sensitive skin around the eyelids, and even if it gets into the eyes it does not cause significant discomfort, simply put, it “does not sting”!

In my opinion, the Eo laboratorie solution may be suitable for those who are looking for a delicate and inexpensive makeup remover.

Volume 200 ml, you can buy it in the Podruzhka store for 185 rubles (link)

Despite my commitment to Korean skincare, 90% of the time I choose micellar water to remove makeup. Why? For me, using it means a minimum of effort and hassle, plus the absence of any discomfort (which cannot be said about a typical Korean hydrophilic oil).

True, not all micellar products I tried actually left no unpleasant sensations at all. Of the inexpensive and accessible ones (all of them are sold everywhere): Garnier, Loreal, Nivea, Clean Line, to my great surprise, I liked the micellar water from Clean Line the most.

I like the one in the photo – the “classic” one, the very first Flower version, I haven’t tried the others (it seems like there are already four of them!). I don’t know how many bottles I’ve already used, but I don’t see the point in looking and trying something new. It copes well with my everyday makeup: foundation, mascara, lipstick, if they are not super-resistant, it washes off without much difficulty. After cleansing the skin, there is no feeling of stickiness, tightness and dryness, any itching, my eyes do not itch (as I had with Nivea micellar water) - in general, there is no desire to wash my face as quickly as possible (although, of course, it’s worth doing this), and also she smells nice.

Taking into account the volume, the price is actually the most common, not much cheaper than others (75 rubles for 100 ml), but there are often profitable promotions, so I buy several bottles for future use, and there is an opportunity to buy a larger volume at once. In general, Clean Line came out with an excellent product this time, I recommend it!

About five years ago, I washed off any makeup with a regular cleanser, and since I always liked to highlight my eyes, I had to rub them diligently. Often after washing my face, I looked like a panda with red eyes, because ordinary gels and foams did not provide high-quality makeup remover. I decided to try to get acquainted with a special makeup remover, but the first pancake turned out to be lumpy, since the remover from a well-known chain brand did not remove mascara very well, and literally ate away my eyes.

After some time, I took the risk of trying again, and this time I chose the hit of that time - Garnier micellar water. So I was convinced that a special makeup remover is still much preferable and I became hooked on Garnier micellar for a long time. But my curiosity could not be quelled and at the same time I tested other micellar waters.

As the ambassador of the mass market on this site, I couldn’t show anything else (and in general, I consider makeup remover a consumable, I don’t see the point of spending a lot on it), which is why my story will be about Softening Micellar Water 3 in 1 from Nivea and Micellar water for face, eyelids and lips from Black Pearl.
Both of these products are distinguished by the fact that they are very budget-friendly, suitable even for dry and sensitive skin, do not have a strong fragrance, remove makeup perfectly (even persistent makeup, but you will have to put in a little more effort), and do not irritate the skin, do not sting the eyes and do not leave stickiness. BUT! An important point: if the skin is irritated (for example, after peeling or chapped), then both of these micellar waters can “cook” the skin. It doesn't last long, but the fact remains.

In a comparative test drive, Black Pearl micellar water is a little more effective, as it removes makeup faster, but Nivea has a more convenient dispenser (although I’m not yet familiar with ChZh micellar water in a large format).

What are your favorite makeup removers? Do you wash your face or use micellar water?

Hello dear readers and blog guests! What do you think is the secret to healthy and beautiful facial skin? Many will now say that these are expensive salon procedures or miracle creams. No, everything is much simpler. It turns out that the most important thing is to properly cleanse your face after applying decorative cosmetics. And one of these products is micellar water, what it is today I will tell you in great detail.

What is micellar water used for?

This product is a liquid consisting of microparticles - micelles. They are solutions of fatty acids. Thanks to this, the particles are able to remove dirt, dust, cosmetics and sebum. The mizzels themselves are not some kind of discovery of recent years. Ordinary soap also contains these microparticles.

The unusual thing about micellar water is that the product contains soft cleansing ingredients and no foam. Plus various oils, water and special emulsifiers are included. Micellar water is often colorless and has a weak aroma.

This liquid can easily remove makeup. As they write on the jars themselves, ideally, it does not require rinsing. Suitable for sensitive and problematic skin. A very convenient product for those who travel frequently and actively use cosmetics. The unique properties make it indispensable in everyday use:

1. Carefully cares, does not injure the skin;
2. Moisturizes the epidermis and prevents it from drying out;
3. Does not contain alcohol and soap;
4. A good replacement for gels and foams for makeup remover;
5. High-quality micellar water does not need to be rinsed off.

The advantages of this liquid in personal care are obvious. Dermatologists even recommend its use for certain skin diseases such as psoriasis and dermatitis. It will not get rid of acne and rashes, but it will be very useful in complex treatment. However, often the expectations from use do not live up to. Reviews about the use of micellar water are very different. Is this water as safe as the advertisement claims?

ARTICLES ON THE TOPIC:

Benefit or harm

The components that make up micellar water have a positive effect on the skin. Glycerin moisturizes it, panthenol heals and soothes irritations. Plant extracts heal the skin. The beneficial properties of this solution are undeniable. With its help, you can quickly remove stubborn makeup and cleanse your skin.

In most cases, the product does not cause allergic reactions or irritation. Thanks to its composition, it can prevent inflammatory processes on the skin. The main advantages of this solution include the following:

1. Multifunctionality. Acts as several cleansers and makeup removers.
2. Suitable for use in hot weather. Thanks to its moisturizing ability, it can be used throughout the day.
3. Safety. A high-quality product rarely causes irritation or allergic reactions.

I have often read that micellar products are the most hypoallergenic compared to other cleansers. However, most brands produced contain preservatives, fragrances and some surfactants. With regular use, this can lead to irritation and increased sensitivity of the epidermis.

There is a feeling of dryness and tightness of the skin, allergic reactions are possible. Painful sensations often occur in the area around the eyes. Such manifestations do not occur immediately, but after a couple of weeks of use it is quite possible.

Micellar water can be harmful to the skin if used according to the advertising slogan: “does not require rinsing with water.” I think it needs to be questioned. Not all products currently sold are the same and most of them should still be washed off with water.

Micellar water or toner: which is better?

These two products are an integral part of the process of proper skin cleansing. Let's first understand what a tonic is and why it is used. The main task of this product is to refresh the skin and restore normal Ph balance after chlorinated water. It can also tighten pores and prevent acne.

Tonic is a conductor for any cream, allowing its components to penetrate deep into cleansed skin.

This product can be water or alcohol based. To obtain the expected effect, the tonic should be used at the last stage of cleansing. You can always choose it according to your preferences. It will soothe sensitive and irritated skin. A product with moisturizing ingredients will be useful for dry or aging skin. For those with problematic and oily skin, toning will help tighten and cleanse pores.

Due to its properties, micellar water is somewhat similar to a tonic. Let's figure out how it differs from tonic. This is a universal cleanser. With its help, you can quickly remove makeup without rubbing makeup on your face. It is suitable for the skin of the lips, face, neck, eyelids.

A micellar solution is no better or worse than a toner in terms of its effect on the skin. Each cosmetic product has its own advantages and disadvantages. They belong to different levels of the makeup removal process and each performs its own function. Ideally, you should use both. First, cleanse the skin with micellar, then refresh it with tonic

How to use

The huge advantage of this product is its ease of use in everyday facial skin care. I'll tell you how to use it correctly. Just moisten a cotton pad with this liquid and wipe your face with it. The product will help remove mascara, lipstick and tinting products. The solution does not smudge, but carefully removes makeup and cares for the skin.

Here is a video on how to use it correctly using Garnier micellar as an example:

After using cosmetic water, the main question arises: do you need to wash it off your face? I think the recommendations of the marketing departments of the manufacturers themselves are not always successful.

Remember that some micellar waters only purport to remove makeup. Their composition is dominated by a large number of cleansing components. They leave behind a sticky film on the face. I must say, this does not contribute to the beauty and health of the skin. It is better to rinse your face with cool water once again. Our skin is more adapted to it than to the chemical components of cosmetics.

If you follow the slogan “does not require rinsing,” then be sure to take into account existing contraindications when choosing products:

1. Oily and problematic skin. There is an accumulation of fat-containing components on the skin and clogging of pores. The liquid may also contain silicones, which are not suitable for oily skin.
2. Allergic reactions or hypersensitivity to components. Cosmetics containing various oils and herbs are not suitable for everyone.
3. Pregnancy. May contain preservatives and fragrances that are undesirable for pregnant women.

If you want to get good results, you need to take the choice of micellar liquid seriously. There is a lot of information on the topic. Read what those who have already used this product write. Personally, I always trust reviews from cosmetologists. In this video, I myself learned very useful information about the use of this cosmetic liquid.

Which product is better to choose - let’s look at the composition

Today this remedy is popular. Therefore, cosmetics manufacturers are trying their best to please the demanding buyer. There are several types of micellar liquid, based on the composition and production technology. Each of them has its own application features.

1. Classic emulsifiers + solvents. Micellar water based on polyethylene glycol (PEG or PEG) with the addition of propylene glycol and similar substances. They are used to mix ingredients evenly and give the desired consistency to the product. In general, substances are considered safe if the concentration does not exceed the permissible 20%. However, these components can cause harm to the skin if they remain on it continuously. Micellar products based on this type usually foam, so they must be washed off.
2. "Green chemistry" or eco-cosmetics. It is a natural alternative to chemical ingredients. The most commonly used are lauryl glycoside and coco-glycoside (Lauryl Glucos />
3. Poloxamers. These artificially produced substances are considered safe and do not irritate the skin. There are many varieties of poloxamers. Most often on the packaging of cosmetics you can find the following: 124, 184, 188. These good solvents are used as a cleansing and wetting component. They help mix the elements and stabilize the finished product. Micellar products based on them really do not require rinsing with water. It is thanks to the action of these components that the inscription “does not require rinsing” appeared on the packaging. This micellar liquid is indeed considered the most gentle and safe.

You should not buy cosmetic water just because of the brand, price or colorful advertising. Study the composition of the product, determine your skin type and select the appropriate product. For convenience, I have divided the products of the most famous brands according to the classification given above. Here's what I got.

The first type of PEG includes brands such as:

1. Libriderm, Black Pearl, Bioderma Sensibio, containing PEG-6. By the way, Bioderma micellar contains good moisturizing components and Ginkgo biloba extract.
2. Clean line, Nivea, Yves Rocher. They contain PEG-40 and paraben (Sodium Methulparaben).

The second type includes environmentally friendly natural products based on glucosides. These brands are little known in our market. I thought I’d never find it 🙂 Good quality products containing organic ingredients:

1. Domus Olea - cleanses well and removes makeup. Great for sensitive skin.
2. Neobio - contains natural essential oils. The product has a floral aroma. Gently cleanses the skin and does not cause irritation.
3. Nonicare - contains coco-glycoside. Effectively removes eye and facial makeup, but may not be suitable for sensitive skin.

The third type includes micellar solutions from the following manufacturers:

1. Purete Thermale – contains Poloxamer 184.
2. Micellar products from L'Oreal contain Poloxamer 184.
3. Products from Garnier are based on poloxamer. It also contains Disodium EDTA. It is used to increase foaming, enhance the effect of preservatives and extend shelf life. Disodium EDTA has low toxicity, but if the technology is violated, it may contain a carcinogen.

Some brands offer a mixed composition of cleaning fluid. For example, Ultra from La Roche Posay contains poloxamers 124 with 184 and PEG-6.

In fact, it is quite difficult to distinguish a natural, gentle product from one that requires rinsing off. Therefore, I am of the opinion that any micellar water should be washed off. If you remove an absolutely safe product, this will not affect the cleansing process. But the remaining solution with emulsifiers and solvents can disrupt the protective function of the skin.

How to make at home

If you don't trust the ingredients in store-bought cosmetics, try making your own cleaning solution. There are many recipes using different ingredients, but I chose the simplest one.

Take 100 ml of rose water, mix with 5 ml of rosehip essential oil. Add about 20 drops of vitamin E. The most important ingredient will be castor sulfate oil, in other words - PEG-40. It will help to easily connect all the components together. Pour the finished solution into a clean bottle and use it with pleasure!

I think you have no questions left about what micellar water is and how to use it. Remember, the best remedy is the one that suits you. Therefore, be careful and remember the correct composition of the cosmetic product.

That's all for me. Write in the comments what micellar water you use and whether you like the effect. If the article was useful to you, do not forget to share the information on social networks. Subscribe to my blog so you don't miss anything. Until we meet again, very soon 😉

Micellar water has been a hit in the beauty industry in recent years. And yet, few people know what this product consists of and how to use it correctly.

Micellar water is a solution for cleansing the skin and removing makeup. As a rule, colorless and odorless.

Micellar solutions were originally used to care for infants and treat skin diseases (eczema, psoriasis, acne). Then cosmetics manufacturers refined the composition in their chemical laboratories, and the result was an “innovative product” for personal care.

What are micelles

Marketers present micelles as a supercomponent that magically removes impurities and makeup. But everything is a little simpler.

Mica means "particle" in Latin.

Micelles are particles in any solution, including a solution of surfactants.

Surfactants are compounds widely used in cosmetology and household chemicals. It is the main component of detergents and shampoos.

Surfactant molecules have fat-soluble (hydrophobic) and water-soluble (hydrophilic) parts. They are similar in shape to tadpoles: the head is hydrophilic, the tail is hydrophobic.

haircolor.org.ua

When dissolved in water, the hydrophobic components are attracted to each other, forming spheres. The result is balls with fat-soluble tails inside and water-soluble heads on the surface. These are micelles.

The structure of the micelle is not rigid. When we pass a cotton pad soaked in micellar over our face, hydrophobes absorb sebum, and hydrophiles work like water, leaving a pleasant feeling of cleanliness.

So micelles are not a supercomponent. These are microparticles that are formed in a solution of surfactants. Which ones specifically depend on the manufacturer.

Composition of micellar water

Almost all cosmetic brands have a product called micellar water. And all these products differ from each other in composition.

There are three types of micellars depending on which surfactant is used as a basis.

1. Micellar water based on “green chemistry”. It is made from nonionic surfactants: most often from lauryl glucoside and cocoglucoside. They are made from sugar and coconut oil. Such surfactants effectively remove sweat and dirt and do not damage the skin.
2. Micellar water based on poloxamers. These are artificial, but absolutely harmless substances. They dissolve and mix well. There are many poloxamers: poloxamer 184, 188 and 407 are usually used in cosmetology. This micellar does not irritate the skin and does not require rinsing.
3. Micellar water based on polyethylene glycol (PEG). PEG is a classic emulsifier. At a concentration of no more than 20% it is safe, but may cause dryness and irritation of the skin.

In any case, micellar water should not contain soap or alcohol.

But to enhance the cosmetic and marketing effect, manufacturers use additional components: plant extracts, minerals, fragrances.

Pros and cons of micellar water

Micellar water has many advantages:

1. Delicately cleanses. Micellar water removes impurities well, while moisturizing the epidermis and, as a rule, does not cause irritation. Suitable even for those with dry and sensitive skin.
2. Removes makeup quickly. No rubbing required, no streaks or panda eyes. Some micellar products do not require rinsing (more on this later), which is especially convenient when traveling.
3. Suitable for eye makeup removal. Micellar water does not sting the mucous membranes and does not cause redness. This is especially important for those who wear contact lenses.
4. Suitable for women of all ages. Micellar water is equally good at caring for both acne-prone and wrinkled skin.

However, micellar water is a universal, but not ideal, remedy.

Some micellar products are prone to forming a sticky film after use. Others – because they dry the skin and give a feeling of tightness. Both of these phenomena are usually associated with an imbalance of micelles in the solution and individual intolerance to additives.

Additives also provoke allergic reactions. The micellar solution itself is neutral, but essential oil added to it may well lead to rashes and itching. Therefore, if one brand of micellar water does not suit you, try another.

How to choose micellar water

When purchasing cosmetics, you should not be guided by the principle “The more famous the brand, the better.”

The ideal micellar water is the one that suits your skin type and meets your skincare needs.

If you have non-problematic skin that is not prone to oily or acne, and you only need micellar to remove makeup at the end of the day, you can use budget products with PEG. The main thing is to remember that such micellar water must be washed off.

If your skin is prone to oily skin, opt for “green chemistry”. Products containing polysorbate (a nonionic surfactant) close pores, reducing sebum production. This micellar water does not have to be washed off, but after cleansing it is recommended to wipe your face with tonic.

For those with dry and sensitive skin, “green chemistry” is also suitable, but it is better to use products based on poloxamers. They are delicate, do not require rinsing, and therefore are suitable for refreshing the face throughout the day. It’s good if micellar water contains additional moisturizing components.

How to use micellar water

1. Soak a cotton pad with a micellar solution.
2. Wipe your face, moving along the massage lines.
3. If you are removing eye makeup, press the swab against your eyelashes for five seconds. Then swipe it from the inner to the outer corner of the eye - the mascara and shadows will remain on the disc.
4. If your micellar requires rinsing, be sure to rinse your face with warm water.

After cleansing with micellar water, you can use other skin care products.

The micellar cleanses and the toner tones the skin. It is used on a clean face to prepare for applying cream or serum.

How to make a micellar solution at home

If you understand the ingredients and get a little confused, you can make micellar water yourself. There are many recipes on the Internet: for daily cleansing, for removing waterproof makeup, for various skin types.

Here's just one of them.

Conclusion

There is a cloud of marketing dust floating around micellar water: “Innovative formula with micelles,” “Deep cleansing,” “Does not require rinsing.” But if you brush it off, you'll be left with just a good self-care product.

Properly selected micellar water perfectly cleanses the skin and easily removes makeup. If the composition matches the characteristics of the skin, micellar can be used every day without dryness or irritation.
