01 Jul The Secret of Micellar Water
Micellar water has conquered the hearts and skincare routines worldwide, but what exactly is it and why is it so popular? Let’s explore together this multipurpose beauty product that has revolutionised facial cleansing.
What is Micellar Water?
Micellar water is a solution mainly composed of water, but its true power lies in micelles, small chemical structures that act like magnets to attract dirt and makeup from the skin. These micelles have “heads” and “tails” that work to separate oils and grease from the skin, allowing for deep and effective cleansing.
What is Micellar Water Used For?
This multifunctional product is a cleanser, makeup remover, and toner all in one. It is ideal for cleansing and removing makeup from the face, including eyes and lips, both in the morning and at night. Additionally, it’s perfect for refreshing the skin after exercise or sun exposure. Its gentle formula makes it suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive, as it does not dry out or leave a greasy residue.
How to Use Micellar Water?
The process is simple and effective:
- Soak a cotton pad with micellar water.
- Apply the pad to the skin of the face with gentle tapping motions, making soft circular movements from the outside in.
- For areas with more makeup, such as the eyes or lips, leave the cotton pad with micellar water on the area for a few seconds before removing it.
- Repeat until the cotton pad comes away clean, thus removing impurities and makeup residue.
