Micelles
Trying to stick to a daily clean-skin routine, but don’t always have the time to make it through a multi-step routine? Simplify life with a multi-tasking micellar cleanser, which removes makeup as well as the day’s buildup of dirt, oil, and pollution.
Take a peek inside any French girl’s medicine cabinet and you’ll likely spot a micellar cleanser. They first became popular in Paris as an antidote to the notoriously hard tap water, which can irritate your skin. Now, micellar cleansers, like 2-in-1 Cleansing Micellar Gel + Light Makeup Remover and Take the Day Off Micellar Cleansing Towelettes for Face & Eyes, have grown from being a niche pharmacy staple to an essential for today’s busy-girl-on-the-go, no matter where she lives. Here’s why.
What’s all the buzz about?
A micellar cleanser is a supremely gentle formula that removes light makeup (i.e. not long-wearing or waterproof formulas), as well as the day’s buildup of dirt, dust, oil, and pollution. Another bonus: You don’t need to rinse it off. Just douse a cotton pad, swipe all over and your skin will look and feel fresh and clean. Think of it as a quick and easy double cleanse on the go. It's also refreshingly hydrating.
