Makeup removal is an important step in the process of cleaning the face at the end of the day. UAportal says that it will help to remove makeup better: micellar water or hydrophilic oil.

How to remove makeup

Micellar water is often preferred for its gentle yet effective cleansing properties thanks to micelles, tiny molecules that dissolve dirt and makeup. Hydrophilic oil is also effective at removing makeup, but can feel heavier on the skin and leave an oily layer if not washed off properly.

For what type of skin

When choosing a product, it is very important to consider your skin type. Micellar water is generally suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. Hydrophilic oil can be used by dry type owners as it provides additional hydration and nourishment, but may not be the best option for people with oily or problem skin due to the oil content in the composition.

Method of use

Micellar water should be applied to a cotton pad and carefully wash off the make-up, changing the sponges until they are clean. It is necessary to wash with hydrophilic oil in 2 stages: first, apply it to a dry face with dry hands, then emulsify it for 30-40 seconds with wet palms and be sure to wash it off with a foam or gel.

Storage

The composition of micellar water is water-based and usually contains mild cleansing agents, which makes it a suitable option for daily use without causing irritation. Hydrophilic oil contains various oils and is not suitable for daily makeup removal, especially for oily and problematic skin, because it can clog pores.

Cost

Micellar water is often more affordable and can be found in a variety of price points. Quality hydrophilic oils are usually more expensive due to their special formulas and additional ingredients in the composition that nourish and care for the skin.
