Wondering what's so special about micellar water? It's a make-up remover in the same way as a milk or oil, but it's also a facial cleanser that can be used by the whole family.
This water contains micelles, which are surfactant particles with the ability to capture the fatty substances contained in make-up. In this way, make-up components are captured by the care product, as well as sebum and impurities accumulated on the skin throughout the day.
Micellar water contains no soap or skin-aggressive ingredients, so it cleanses the face gently, day after day. Last but not least, micellar water leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean after use.
Micellar water removes make-up and cleanses the skin of impurities such as pollution particles and perspiration. But micellar water can also be used as a skin cleansing lotion.
It can be used for daily cleansing in the morning, or carried in the bag for quick daytime cleansing.
So it's a gentle, versatile facial cleanser that can be used to remove impurities, excess sebum and make-up from the skin. It's gentle on the skin and requires no rinsing, making it a gentle alternative to more aggressive cleansers.
Like cleansing milk, micellar water is used on a washable or disposable cotton pad. Simply wipe the cotton pad gently over the face (eyes, lips, neck, depending on the formulation), so that the product cleanses the skin and removes make-up residues.
There's no need to rub: micellar water's formula removes make-up without the need for potentially skin-irritating gestures; this is thanks to the micelles contained in micellar water, which act as a kind of magnet.
After use, there's no need to rinse your face: your skin is left clean. You can go straight to work with your day or night cream.
