Find out why you need this gentle yet effective product in your vanity!
Micellar water, also known as cleansing water, is a multi-purpose skincare product often used to remove dirt and unwanted oil from the face. Don’t let the name fool you though, micellar water is made up of more than just good old water you get from the tap.
It is actually jam-packed with clusters of surfactants, also known as micelles, that are chemically attracted to dirt, sebum and makeup. So, when you swipe a cotton pad soaked in micellar water, it effectively wipes away all the gunk and grime from your skin.
Read ahead for the top five uses and benefits of using this cleansing water!
1.Promotes skin hydration
One of the main ingredients for most micellar water products is glycerin, a hydrating compound that helps the skin retain moisture more effectively. Regular use can help restore your skin’s hydration and enhance its natural barrier function.
2. Deeply cleanses the skin
Thanks to the presence of cleaning compounds in micellar water, it gently yet effectively removes makeup, dirt and oil from even the deeper layers of the skin.
3. Suitable for most skin types
While it’s true that micellar water is especially beneficial to people with sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea, it is incredibly versatile and suited for a number of skin types, regardless whether you have oily, dry or normal skin.
4. Easy on the pocket
Compared to its makeup wipes counterpart, micellar water is more cost-effective in that you get multiple uses of the product before it runs out. Even with daily use, a bottle can last you for a really long time.
5. Portable and convenient
In addition to all its wonderful benefits to the skin, this powerful product is travel friendly and acts as a makeup remover, cleanser and toner all in one! It also helps eliminate the need for other products, freeing up space and reducing clutter in your vanity!
