If you'd like to know which natural and synthetic surfactants are used to formulate micellar water, COSMETIKWATCH® offers you a technical study of 100 formulas on the market.
Micellar water is water containing surfactants organized in micelles. A micelle is a spheroidal aggregate of surfactant molecules. Hydrophobic interaction is responsible for micelle formation, through the association of the lipophilic parts of the surfactant molecules.
The surfactant(s) must be used at a higher concentration than that which enables them to organize themselves into micelles. This concentration is called the critical micellar concentration or CMC.
This specific organization gives the formula its cleansing and/or make-up removal efficacy.
