Face care guide: Adding Micellar water to your skincare routine

WHAT IS MICELLAR WATER AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

Micellar water like NIVEA Perfect & Radiant Micellar 3-in-1 Cleansing Water is a cleanser that contains micelles. These suspended surfactant molecules are hydrophilic and oleophilic meaning they attract water, oil and the dirt. Which when combined with a cotton pad, also works to remove stubborn makeup.

The unique properties of micellar water mean that, depending on your skin type, it can be used as a facial cleanser, makeup remover and in the case of NIVEA Perfect & Radiant Micellar 3-in-1 Cleansing Water, a toner.

TIPS FOR REMOVING EYE MAKEUP

  • Let the Micellar Water soaked cotton pad or wipe rest on your closed eyes to soften the makeup before you sweep across the face and eyes.
  • Be careful not to rub or tug.
  • Repeat gentle wipes until your pad or wipe comes off clean. There’s no need to use too much pressure.
  • Always remove makeup from the eye before cleaning the rest of your face.
  • Cleansing and toning your face is important - fortunately, NIVEA Perfect & Radiant Micellar Water is 3-in-1 so no need to do anything else!
