I’m a huge fan of cleansing oils and balms. They really changed my entire skin cleansing world when I first discovered that step in Korean skincare. However, I know that many people enjoy cleansing waters, so I like to find good ones to recommend. After all, each one of us has unique skin needs and preferences.
I’m currently using a newly released Rovectin Clean Marine Micellar Deep Cleansing Water. It was gifted to me for testing purposes and can be bought on* Wishtrend, YesStyle (use reward code KBHOBBIT for extra savings - must be signed into an account), and StyleKorean.
Rovectin’s micelle molecules thoroughly remove impurities without drying or irritating the skin. The cleanser contains sea water, hyaluronic acid, and plant extracts (see a full list of ingredients at the end of the review). This product is vegan friendly and paraben free.
How to use
Even though there are no artificial fragrances, this cleansing water does have a scent. It starts out quite pleasant, but then during use changes a little into a more “soapy” scent. It’s not bad, but not as nice as that first whiff (I know, I’m great at describing aromas). Anyway, it doesn’t linger, so not a problem.
My impressions
Like I said, I’m more of a cleansing oil / balm fan, but I must say I’m impressed with this cleansing water. I have used it many times by now, going several days in a row of doing micellar water as my first step cleanser (to see if my pores would clog, etc). I like that it’s so simple to use, especially over the sink, without needing to then add a bunch of water and emulsify, like you would with a cleansing oil
Rovectin Clean Marine Micellar Deep Cleansing Water seems to fully remove makeup (including eye makeup - but my current mascara isn’t waterproof, so not sure how it would do with a waterproof formula) and sunscreen. I’ve had no dryness or irritation. I do follow with a foaming cleanser, because I don’t think micellar water alone is enough for me. But it works well as a first step. My ideal preference is to use micellar water for heavy eye makeup, and then a cleansing oil on the rest of the face. But if you are into cleansing waters for the whole face, this one is a good one to try. The bottle is huge - 400 ml - and should last for a long time.
