[Acne] Micellar water changed my life

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've been dealing with bad skin ever since I hit puberty but my entire life I've had sensitive skin.My worst breakout was when I went away to college and the tap water had me breaking out all over my back, chest, and face. To this day, the only tap water that doesn't irritate my skin is the water in my hometown. (Which oddly enough was contaminated by chemical waste in the 90s and caused a leukemia cluster, but that's besides the point).Once I realized my campus tap water was causing breakouts, I started to use medicated cleansing wipes prescribed by my dermatologist to clean my face and rinsed it with bottled water. This was the most tedious and expensive skincare routine I've ever had and it only sort of fixed the breakouts on my face, and certainly not the rest of my body.Fast forward to my first job post-grad. I was discussing skincare routines with a colleague and she told me about micellar water. IT CHANGED MY LIFE!If you haven't tried it, it's a makeup remover, skin cleanser, & moisturizer all in one! It looks and feels like water but has oil molecules suspended in it that traps oil and dirt from your skin.Just soak a cotton pad with the micellar water and wipe it over your face. That's it. That is your skincare routine.I use "simple" brand which is less than $10 at my local pharmacy. You can get high end brands at a much higher cost but it's really the same thing.Has anyone else used micellar water? What's your experience been?
