What is micellar water?


It is a true cleansing elixir that has taken the skincare world by storm. It is a soft and light liquid that contains micelles, small particles that act like magnets to trap and remove impurities, makeup and residues from the skin without drying or irritating it.


It is an essential step in your daily skin care routine. It acts as an effective and gentle cleaning at the same time. Whether you want to say goodbye to makeup at the end of the day or simply refresh and tone your skin in the morning, micellar water is the number one choice to help.


It is very easy to use, you just have to moisten a cotton ball and gently wipe it over your face with small touches and circular movements. Avoid dragging the cotton all over your face, all you will do is spread the dirt but not activate the power of the micelles to act like a magnet.


It is suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive skin because it does not mistreat it. Micellar water does not contain alcohol or parabens and is usually one of the products with the best skin tolerance.


Benefits:

 

  • Make-up remover: Micelles, small cleansing particles present in micellar water, trap and gently remove makeup, allowing for a deep and effortless clean. It is effective in removing makeup, including waterproof makeup and long-lasting products.

  • Cleanser: Micellar water is also a gentle but effective cleanser to remove excess oil, dirt and impurities accumulated on the skin during the day. The micelles act like magnets, capturing dirt and sebum, leaving skin feeling clean and refreshed without the need to scrub.

  • Toning: In addition to cleansing and removing make-up, micellar water can also have a toning effect on the skin. The micelles help balance the skin's pH, which can contribute to healthier skin that is less prone to breakouts.
