Dove Micellar Water

Micellar water appeared in French pharmacies back in the 1990s, and the triumphant conquest of markets around the world began in the 21st century and continues to this day. Today, almost all cosmetic brands have this product; it is sold in any supermarket. The famous brand Dove, which considers delicate cleansing to be one of the main beauty secrets, has included several varieties of this product in its range.

Dove Micellar Water provides gentle skin care and a pleasant daily beauty ritual. Microparticles (micelles) do not damage the lipid barrier of the skin, actively capturing all impurities. When developing the formulations, technologists used the cosmetological experience of different countries: France and Japan. Unique formulations of solutions contain plant and fruit extracts and oils.

Dove micellar water has the following features:

• lack of chemical fragrances and alcohol;
• multifunctional effect: cleansing, moisturizing, exfoliating, toning;
• removes even long-lasting makeup;
• does not leave a sticky feeling;
• does not require rinsing;
• there are products for every skin type;
• dermatologically approved;
• sold at an affordable price.

Many users found such a device very inconvenient for such a liquid product: when pressed, the liquid unpredictably "shoots" out of the dispenser nose, leaks, it is difficult to measure the required amount of solution, it is inconvenient to take such a bottle on a trip. Of course, this is a mass market tool, therefore, the budgetary cost assumes the presence of preservatives, solvents, emulsifiers in the formulations.

The basis of the Dove micellar water assortment is the "Japanese Collection". Product formulas are developed in Japan. Available in "Caring" and "Moisturizing" varieties. On sale you can find the same products in a limited edition with the design "Sakura". Let's consider these varieties in more detail.

• Dove Caring Micellar Water is designed to revitalize dry skin that has lost its tone and radiance. The high concentration of moisturizing ingredients in NutriumMoisture Beauty Serum will noticeably change the condition of the skin immediately after use. To get rid of dullness, a powerful multifruit complex of extracts (sugar maple, orange, lemon, sugar cane, blueberry) is included in the composition. Under its influence, there is a gentle exfoliation of dead cells of the epidermis. The product does not contain alcohol and chemical fragrances.

• Micellar water Dove "Moisturizing" also contains a concentrated moisturizing serum. It is recommended for normal to dry skin, which is softened by panthenol and other ingredients. It cleanses, tones, saturates with moisture, has a light floral scent. This water does not leave a sticky layer on the skin, does not cause irritation and does not sting the eyes. The product does not need to be washed off.

European direction represents Dove Nourishing Secrets micellar water for oily to combination skin with grape seed oil and lavender from the "Beauty Rituals" series. Plant extracts typical of the French province have long been used by local beauticians. The natural beauty of French women is reflected in radiant and healthy skin. In Europe, it is not customary to wear bright makeup during the daytime; the focus is on care products and thorough cleansing.

The Dove brand offers not only micellar water, but also micellar gels. Let's consider the main varieties in more detail.

• Micellar oil make-up remover gel suitable for all skin types. It contains Nutrium Moisture ™, an intensely moisturizing serum. Oil washing will help to delicately remove waterproof makeup without leaving any residue. The rich composition includes oils: argan, olive, sunflower, macadamia, jojoba, avocado, grape seed and almond. There are no parabens, sulfates or alcohol among the components.

This cleanser is very easy to use, namely:

1. a small amount of liquid must be applied to a cotton pad;
2. make-up should be removed with gentle movements without excessive friction;
3. easy to walk along the massage lines of the face.

It will be easier to dissolve the long-lasting mascara if you hold the damp disc on your closed eyes for a few seconds. You will need 2–4 discs for a complete eye and lip make-up remover, cleansing of foundation and blush. Despite the indication that you can then do without washing, it is best to rinse your face with cool water.

Dove's micellar products have received overwhelmingly positive reviews. Buyers note that they cope with their main function - cleansing - without any complaints. The gel with oils easily removes the most super-resistant cosmetics, which are beyond the control of many of its competitors from other brands. I am glad that the skin after the action of the micellar solution is non-sticky. There are practically no negative reviews that water causes discomfort or burning sensation in the eyes and on the skin.

Individual preferences can be explained by reviews about a not too pleasant or obtrusive smell: many users like these same scents and seem to be quite subtle.Customers are dissatisfied with the relatively small package volume - only 240 ml. Due to the inconvenient dispenser, an excess amount of water is spilled; the impracticality of this mechanism is noted by a lot of people. Generally, Dove micellar water is quite a pleasant, inexpensive, delicate remedy for everyday cleansing with mild additional moisturizing and toning effects.
