We all know that the Parisians set the bar when it comes to beauty, especially when it comes to facial cleansing. You see, the French have mastered the art of ‘no makeup’ makeup, but the foundation for that look is perfect skin. When you have beautiful and glowing skin, you don’t need all that makeup. It’s imperative to use products that won’t clog your pores and contain clean ingredients. I’m all about keeping it all natural and organic, and luckily with all the amazing technologies out there, you can really get results and be green too. Great skin too starts with how you wash your face. Micellar cleansers originated in Paris in the ‘90s to help French women deal with the city’s harsh water. These super hydrating water-based cleansers have gone from best-kept secret to backstage staple.

The reason for the recent Micellar obsession is plain and simple. Micellar water helps you achieve a natural glow with the swish of a cotton pad. I was thrilled when one of my favorite drugstore brands, Simple Skincare, developed their own version, the Simple Skincare Micellar Cleansing Water. It’s the perfect blend of oh-so-good for you multi-vitamins, skin-loving ingredients and triple-purified water (unlike that mystery water that comes out of your sink.) It allows you to cleanse without even touching the bathroom faucet. Upon contact, your skin is instantly hydrated and more radiant. Simply soak the water in a clean cotton pad, and watch your makeup disappear, gently and easily.

Leave a bottle on your sink, your desk, and your bedside table and use it anytime of the day that you need an instant refresh. Be sure to #TestTheWater to achieve the glowiest skin ever.
