Agua micelar limpiadora: preguntas frecuentes

El agua micelar ha sido un secreto de belleza francés por años y, ahora que ha llegado a Estados Unidos, ¿qué necesitas saber exactamente sobre ella?

Is Micellar Water Oil Based?

No. Unlike most face cleansers, micellar water is water-based. In fact, none of the Garnier micellar water products contain any traces of oil, despite being effective at removing makeup and cleansing skin.

Does Micellar Water Expire?

Like any other cleansing product, micellar water expires. Once opened, a bottle of micellar water should be used within about six months.

When to Use Micellar Water?

Micellar water is useful for more than just washing your face. It's an effective makeup remover and skin cleanser, but it can also be used to clean makeup brushes and correct makeup mistakes. Discover more micellar water hacks to try out.

¿Cuándo usar el agua micelar en la rutina de cuidado de la piel?

Micellar water is generally used as the first step in your skin-care routine. It's infused with tiny particles called “micelles” that soak up dirt, oil, and makeup like a sponge, leaving your skin clean and ready for the following steps.

¿Puedo hacer doble limpieza con agua micelar?

Double cleansing is a great way to thoroughly remove makeup, sunscreen, and pollutants after a long day, and micellar water is an excellent first step. For a double-cleansing routine, we recommend Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water All-In-1 Mattifying, specifically formulated to remove dirt and impurities from oily skin. Following the micellar water, use a cleanser containing antioxidants to help defend skin from free radicals.

Can I Use Micellar Water Even Without Makeup?

Yes, even if you don't wear makeup, micellar water can be beneficial. While highly effective at removing makeup, it's also formulated to gently cleanse skin by lifting away impurities and excess oil. This makes it suitable for daily use, regardless of whether you wear makeup.

¿Cómo usar el agua micelar sin discos de algodón?

Looking for an alternative to disposable cotton pads? Try reusable options like Garnier's Micellar Cleansing Eco Pads. These pads are designed to work with micellar water, effectively removing makeup and cleansing skin without harsh rubbing. As a bonus, they're reusable and can last for up to 1,000 washes.

¿Es el agua micelar buena para el acné?

Micellar water is often a good choice for acne-prone skin due to its gentle cleansing action and moisturizing properties. It cleanses without requiring harsh rubbing, which can irritate sensitive skin. For acne-prone and oily skin, Garnier offers the SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water with Salicylic Acid.

Can Micellar Water Cause Acne?

While micellar water is generally gentle, it's possible for certain ingredients to cause breakouts in some individuals. If you have concerns, consult a dermatologist. Garnier offers formulas designed for different skin types, including the SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water All-in-1 for sensitive skin and the SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water with Salicylic Acid for acne-prone and oily skin. While all Garnier micellar waters are formulated to be gentle, it's always best to test a new product on a small area of skin first.

Does Micellar Water Remove Sunscreen?

Yes, even oil-free micellar water can effectively remove sunscreen, as well as long-wear makeup, while remaining gentle enough for all skin types.

Does Micellar Water Stain Clothes?

No, micellar water does not stain clothes.
