Garnier Micellar Water
Overview & Function:
Garnier Micellar Water is a gentle, all-in-one cleanser and makeup remover that uses micellar technology. Micelles act like tiny magnets, attracting dirt, oil, and makeup without harsh rubbing, leaving skin clean and lightweight. Many formulas are no-rinse, making it convenient and portable, ideal for use when water isn’t immediately available.
