Micellar cleansing water is all the rage and after testing the Lancome version – Eau Fraiche Douceur Micellar Cleansing Water, I can definitely see why. What is a micellar cleanser? It is a cleanser made of water infused with micelles, which are molecules made of fatty-acid esters. The anatomy of these molecules aids in diminishing pollution, grime and cosmetics from your face in one fell swoop.

One of the benefits of micellar cleansing is that it is safe for sensitive skin and appropriate for use on the face, eyes and lips, since it is dermatologist and ophthalmologist approved. This is a great product for traveling, because it can take the place of separate cleansing and toning products, and also leaves your skin feeling silky soft.

On the nights whenever you are tempted to fall into bed without cleansing, consider reaching for this micellar cleanser instead. Just saturate a cotton pad, swipe, and you are done. There is no need to rinse when using this method of cleansing.

This product will make you feel confident that your face has been gently cleansed, hydrated and clarified. I think of this method of cleaning as super convenient and practical, yet luxurious. It truly feels like a cleansing “caress”.
