Cleansing your face before bed doesn’t have to be stressful and you don’t even need a faucet. The secret: Micellar Cleansing Water. But what exactly is Micellar and how does it work? Micellar Cleansing Water is water infused with tiny oil molecules, known as micelles, that you soak into a cotton ball or cotton pad and gently work into your face. It quickly absorbs dirt, oil and makeup. Cleans like a face wash, removes makeup like oil and moisturizes the skin. Micellar also acts like a toner. The right Micellar water will make all the difference, as Jesenia’s Goodie Bag lists four brands to add to your cleansing collection.
