Micellar water for problem skin

Micellar water for problem skin

Once the micellar water was sold in a pharmacy and was considered medicinal. And not by chance: it was used to care for the delicate skin of newborns and seriously ill people who are bedridden. When the release of water became widespread, some manufacturers began to violate the originally created formula with a therapeutic, gentle effect, abusing the addition of various chemical additives and preservatives to water, significantly reducing the cost of its production, but releasing questionable agents that adversely affect the epidermis, especially the inflamed.

Properties

Micellar water for problematic skin, as a rule, has no odor or a very faint floral scent, looks like ordinary colorless or slightly turbid water. The difference of micellar water from other cleansing agents is in micelles, small particles of fat dissolved in water, which can attract dirt, excess sebum and leave them on the sponge for washing. Means for the problematic type, depending on the destination, are divided into water for washing and removing cosmetics, although some companies produce products that combine these types.

You will learn more about the various brands of mycelial water from the video.

Varieties

Some types of micellar water, mainly for the fat type, may foam slightly. Other means, on the contrary, are two-phase, with oil on the surface, which is mainly used for dry epidermis, it is necessary to constantly mix.

The composition of the tools that are good directly to remove makeup includes oils, propylene glycol, glycerin, panthenol, and often - preservatives. Such water can remove makeup well and quickly, but it is recommended to wash it off, otherwise it can leave a feeling of discomfort on the face.

Cleansing micelles are often prescribed for problems with the face in addition to therapeutic drugs. It is usually made on the basis of purified natural thermal or floral water, the so-called hydrates, incorporating medicinal herbs that promote healing of cracks, which have a mild antiseptic effect and natural plant extracts that moisturize the skin of aloe type. Cosmetologists recommend such products as auxiliary, even for acne.

Problem skin

For skin that has acne, acne, inflammation, and acne, micellar water must be chosen carefully so as not to aggravate the problem. The usual composition of such skin is not suitable. In these cases, use special tools containing a small amount of alcohol, antibacterial agents and medicinal herbs. Additionally, a micellar agent containing a complex against acne eruptions on the face may contain such minerals as sulfur, copper, zinc, which soothe the epidermis and help to dry the inflammations.

However, such agents are not recommended for use around the eyes.

Fat type

As a rule, this type of face shines from fatty discharge and also has large ugly pores on the face. For such a problematic type will help contained in the composition of polysorbate, which gently removes fatty contaminants. More oily skin just need to micellar water contained substances, matting problem areas and narrowing the pores on the face.

Alcohol in small amounts is also added to the products in order to remove the oily sheen and essential oils, which will help to saturate the epidermis with useful vitamins and microelements.

Dried epidermis

Such skin looks dry and lifeless: it constantly flakes off and a wrinkle net begins to appear early on it. This type requires special nutrition and comprehensive care, one of which will be cleansing with the help of the correct micellar water. Therefore, you should choose the means in which there are no alcohol and aggressive surface-cleansing agents.

Such skin should be moisturized, so micellar cleansers should contain components that prevent moisture loss, for example, hyaluronic acid.

Complex Combined Type

This type of skin means that its owner is characterized by opposites in the most extreme forms. In the area of ​​the forehead, nose and chin, the so-called T-shaped area, the face shines and has a characteristic oily sheen, and in other places it is dry before flaking. It is very difficult to care for her, because care for normal skin is not suitable for her, remedies for oily skin are suitable in part, only to the T-shaped zone, in other places they will dry out the skin and cause peeling. If you use care for dry epidermis, there will be a comfortable sensation for the skin of the cheeks and around the eyes, but the products can cause acne and oily shine on the nose and forehead.

In this case, experts recommend choosing two different means for each zone or neutral micellar water, made on the basis of thermal.

It is produced from purified natural water extracted from geothermal sources. Its feature is the presence in the composition of nitrogen and hydrogen sulfide. Therefore, a micelle with such a composition not only delicately removes impurities, but also eliminates swelling, moisturizes and refreshes the epidermis, and also normalizes the water balance.

Too sensitive skin

Delicate, like a rose petal, the type of face may be prone to redness, couperose, and allergic reactions. Therefore, the composition of water is the simplest and most concise, no “chemistry”, preservatives and alcohols: the most natural ingredients containing micelles and decoctions of herbs such as chamomile, calendula, which will help soothe the epidermis, which is prone to irritation. We will consider similar means on concrete examples, proceeding from responses of consumers and cosmetologists.
