Maybelline Micellar Water

There's nothing like having a fresh, clean face at the end of the day, right? Especially if you've been wearing makeup throughout most of it. To remove mine, I like to employ 3 steps that involve cleansing wipes, a cleansing oil, and finally a face wash.

Wipes are not a staple though and I'll sometimes switch it up for a cleansing water instead, so I decided to try one of Maybelline's newest products, the Maybelline Micellar Water.

Maybelline says... Removes all makeup and UV products • Hydrates • Removes trapped dirt and dust, refines pores • Freshens like a toner • No need to rinse • Suitable for sensitive skin

No Fragrance, Alcohol free, Fresh and Oil free

THE SECRET? Makeup absorbing micelles: Act like genuine micro-captors to absorb dirt and makeup residues. RESULT: Instantly and effectively removes light makeup including BB while skin stays extremely fresh, soft, and hydrated.

Happy Skin Make A Clean Sweep

As much as I love putting makeup on at the start of any day, there’s nothing that feels as refreshing as removing it all by the end of the same day. It’s like your skin can breathe again, plus no more worrying about accidentally smudging anything on your clothes or pillow like I almost always seem to do!

Of course, we all know how important removing makeup before bed is too. I simply can’t go to sleep without a clean face! And since I have acne-prone skin, it’s doubly important that I cleanse my face really well or risk breakouts the next day. When it comes to removing my makeup, I always start with a makeup wipe which is then usually followed by a cleansing oil. Since I’ve been using different cleansing oils for a while now I decided to switch it up a bit and try a cleansing water instead, and what better one to try than one of Happy Skin’s newest products: their Make A Clean Sweep Revitalizing Micellar Makeup Cleanser (Php599.00).

Product info: Wipe away the remnants of bad vibes, heavy makeup, and a long day, and let your skin breathe. Happy Skin Make A Clean Sweep Revitalizing Micellar Makeup Cleanser makeup remover is a gentle yet potent water-based makeup cleanser. Micellar water, boasting the highest makeup removing powers, leaves skin fresh and clean without having to rinse!

Micellar water sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Bioderma, Vichy, Avène, etc. use Micellar water for their cleansing waters and other products so it should sound familiar. But what is Micellar water exactly? According to Happy Skin: Originating from France, it is a non-rinse, soap-free cleansing water that contains micelle molecules. Micelle molecules are brilliant in trappping makeup & dirt! They have the highest makeup removing powers. Being ultra-light, all-natural and fragrance-free, it leaves skin feeling soft, supple, and fresh. For those that prefer to not use thick oil cleansers, and even for those with sensitive skin, products that use Micellar water are really a great alternative!
