Bioderma Sensibio H2O Make Up Removing Micelle Solution:a very gentle fragrance-free micellar solution that cleanses impurities and removes make-up while respecting the skin’s natural balance. Thanks to the power of its ultra gentle micelles that solubilise in water and capture fatty molecules (dirt, sebum and make-up), Sensibio H2O cleanses and soothes sensitive and intolerant skin. It is a 3-in-1 product for the face and eyes that does not require rinsing. Sensibio H2O guarantees a high cutaneous (skin) and ocular (eyes) tolerance.

Gentle but effective cleansing and no eye stingFor some reason it took me a long time to get on to this well-loved micellar water even though I've used different brands, and now I can see why it's such a hit. Like other miscellar waters, this cleanses without requiring rinsing. The formula is quite simple, which is great for sensitive skin. It is fragrance-free and has a skin-friendly pH of 5.5. To use, simply soak a cotton pad and swipe over face.
This micellar water doesn't sting my eyes and doesn't irritate my skin in any way. It's effective in removing daily wear sunscreen and most make-up, doesn't strip and leaves my skin feeling comfortable and hydrated. Waterproof make-up requires a bit of work, so I still prefer to use oil-based cleansers on days I have heavier make-up on, to reduce the rubbing.
Since it doesn't require rinsing, you could use it as a standalone cleanser. But because it's so gentle, you can still use a second wash-off cleanser if you wish. I also find this handy to use in the middle of the day if I want to start with a clean face before applying make-up. It's also handy (decantered) on overnight flights since you can clean your face in your seat without having to do everything in the cramped toilets.
