Intermed The Skin Pharmacist Sensitive Skin 5 in 1 Micellar Cleansing Water is a gentle micellar cleansing water for the face, eyes, and lips. It removes dirt and makeup in one step and does not require rinsing. The 100ml bottle is the size that fits in a travel bag, gym bag, or carry-on.
It is aimed at those with sensitive skin that easily reddens with friction or foam cleansers, those who wear contact lenses and want mild eye makeup removal, and generally all skin types. The Skin Pharmacist line is Intermed's dermatocosmetic line.
Micellar water is microscopic spheres formed when mild surfactant molecules dissolve in water. One end of them is attracted to water and the other to fats. When a cotton pad passes over the skin, the micelles embrace sebum, dust, and makeup pigments and carry them away, without needing tap water or vigorous wiping.
For sensitive skin, this is important. Less friction means less irritation, and the absence of rinsing means the skin does not come into contact with hard water, which in many areas dries out the skin.
The formula does not contain fragrance, silicones, or alcohol, which reduces potential irritants for sensitive skin.
For those who want quick evening makeup removal without a cleanser. For morning face freshening before moisturizer. For travel and overnight stays, where the 100ml size makes a difference. And for those starting double cleansing, as a first step before their cleanser.
Dampen a cotton pad and gently pass it over the face, eyes, and lips, without rubbing. For eye makeup, hold the cotton pad on the eyelid for a few seconds before pulling it down. No rinsing required.
Store in a dry and cool place, below 25°C, away from young children.
Packaging: 100ml bottle.
No, the manufacturer states that it is not required. If you have oily skin or heavy makeup, you can follow up with your cleanser.
Micellar water cleans eye makeup, but waterproof formulas usually require more time of contact or dual-phase makeup removal.
It is designed for use around the eyes. It is good practice to remove lenses before makeup removal to avoid transferring residues onto them.
No. It is fragrance-free, silicone-free, and alcohol-free.
The same cleansing water is also available in a 200ml bottle, more economical for daily use at home. The 100ml is preferred for travel and first-time trials.
Key ingredients: cucumber juice (Cucumis Sativus), panthenol, allantoin, glycerin, xylitol, betaine, amino acids (proline, serine). Without fragrance, silicones and alcohol.
