Vichy Beautifying Cleansing Micellar Oil

By now you’ve doubtless heard about  Micellar cleansing waters.

Designed to make cleansing quick and super easy, these waters contain something called micelles which are tiny balls of cleansing molecules that float in water. 

When applied to your skin, they act like magnets to gently lift away makeup, dirt and impurities on the skin, without the need to rub or rinse.

Personally I love them because of how effective they are and how gentle they are on my sensitive skin.

Well, Vichy have taken things a step further and created a Beautifying Cleansing Micellar Oil (£13.75).

This cleansing oil-micellar water hybrid is part of their new Purete Thermale range of cleansing products which have been created to help protect skin from hard water which can deposit limescale on to the skin and cause drying and irritation.

The Pureté Thermale range “insulates” skin against hard water using unique and effective formulations.

Well, cleansing need not be a chore but rather a pleasure with this Micellar Oil.

It is an extremely light, non greasy oil that is suitable for both dry and oily skin types.

Formulated with Camelia Oil and Vitamin E to care for and nourish your skin, the oil transform into a milk on contact with water to gently cleanse your skin leaving it feel soft and beautiful.

Massage the oil onto your dry face with dry hands then gently wash off with water for a gentle yet effective cleansing experience.

The formula even works to remove tough waterproof make-up, just make sure you massage it around your face for a decent length of time before washing off.

I’m a HUGE fan of this cleanser! It is so beautifully light and gentle on my skin and it leaves my skin feeling soft not at all dry.

If you aren’t ordinarily a fan of oil based cleansers or haven’t tried one before ( you really should by the way) then this little gem would be a great Introduction for you.

The Vichy Beautifying Cleansing Micellar Oil is available along with the rest of the Purete Thermale cleansing range at Escentual now where it is currently on offer for £11.65.
