French Women Best-Kept Secret- Micellar Water.




Micellar Water- is a cleanser that helps in removing dirt from skin.

Micellar water is made up of micelles (tiny balls of cleansing molecules) suspended in soft water.

The micelles attracted to dirt and oil, so they are able to draw out impurities without drying out the skin.

Originally created in the 90s to help Parisian women deal with the harsh water, micellar cleansers have been their best-kept secret until make-up artists and models started raving about the benefits of this no-rinse formula. One of the great things about this cleanser is that you don't have to rinse it off.

Some micellar waters can act as a cleanser, toner, and makeup remover all-in-one, able to benefit all skin types.

Easy to use micellar cleanser is a lifesaver for on-the-go, in the gym for a post-workout quick clean-up and late nights. While your usual cleansing routine can seem like a chore, micellar versions don’t even need water to work.

Most important that unlike other cleansers micellar water is PH balanced and will not strip or disturb your protective skin-acid mantle.

Having harsh surfactants in cleansers will cause skin-barrier damage, tightness, irritation, and even itch. Micellar cleansing waters have mostly been adapted for sensitive skin and formulated with mild, non-irritating and gentle surfactants.

Even stubborn make-up can be effectively removed with a few sweeps of a cotton pad without harsh chemicals or detergents to irritate and inflame skin – all this cleanser contains are tiny micelles (microscopic oil spheres) that dissolve impurities without stripping the skin – even the most difficult skin is left feeling soft, nourished and hydrated.

The use of cotton pads plays a major role in why the micellar water so effective at removing makeup. Cotton is hydrophilic, and when you pour the micellar solution on the cotton pad, the hydrophilic heads attracted to the cotton, leaving the hydrophobic tails sticking up to trap oil, wax based substances and dirt, like makeup and sebum. When applied to skin, micellar water and cotton pads cleanse the skin by acting like a magnet, attracting and entrapping impurities without harsh rubbing or scraping.

Hydration is a crucial part of skin care regardless of your skin type. Unlike regular cleansers, micellar water will bring the hydration to your skin, and hydrated skin is a healthy and more beautiful.

Perfect for sensitive and stressed skin, multitasker, easy and convenient- it is clear that micellar cleansing water one of the trendiest skin care products at the moment. In addition, micellar water can be used as a makeup brush cleaner. Micellar water made to get rid of dirt and oil, which helps get rid of all that build-up on makeup brushes.
