Hands down, my favorite micellar cleanser. I use it every morning to start my skin care routine. It gently cleans off my heavy nighttime products and leaves the perfect base for the rest of my morning routine.
It also works well at removing any residual eye makeup that I missed after my nighttime cleanse.

Gentle Everyday Cleanser
I have dry/dehydrated fairly sensitive skin, so it's important to me to use a moisturizing, non-stripping cleanser that can still break down oil and dirt. I don't wear foundation, but I do wear sticky liquid eyeliner that this easily removes with some patience. I use this morning and night (if I cleanse in the morning) and I do rinse it off with water (although if I were double cleansing, I might not).
