My God! How did i not know about double cleansing with micellar water?
After trying it consistently for one month, every night paired with Avene clearance cleanser my skin became sooo much better.
I'm always in shock when I look at the cotton pad after cleansing even I don't wear makeup at all.
My skin feels a lot more smoother, cleaner, and actually more light? idk lol.
If you have a sensitive, reactive acne prone like me you should consider getting this rather than an oil cleanser.

Good cleaning water
I was told by a doctor to keep the pores on my neck clean and after some trial and error I ended up with this. It's cheap but does the job very well.
My skin is also kinda sensitive but I never had any problems with this.
