Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water with Salicylic Acid (BHA) in the 125ml size is a targeted cleansing product designed for those with oily, acne-prone, and combination skin. It's a key part of Garnier's specialized micellar water line, which offers different formulas for various skin concerns.
General Description and Key Features
Primary Purpose: This product combines the cleansing power of micellar water with active ingredients to specifically address acne and oil control. It's an all-in-one cleanser and makeup remover that purifies and mattifies the skin.
Micellar Technology: Like all Garnier Micellar Waters, this product is made with micelles, which are tiny cleansing molecules suspended in water. They act like magnets, attracting and lifting away dirt, oil, and makeup from the skin without the need for harsh rubbing.
Key Ingredients: The "Salicylic Acid BHA" is the star of this formula.
Salicylic Acid (BHA): This is a beta-hydroxy acid that is renowned for its ability to penetrate deep into pores. It exfoliates the skin from within, helping to unclog pores, reduce acne, prevent new breakouts, and control excess sebum (oil).
Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Glucoside): Some formulations also include Vitamin C, which helps to brighten the complexion and reduce the appearance of dark spots and post-acne marks.
Formula: This variant is typically fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, making it suitable for even sensitive skin that is prone to breakouts. It is also often formulated without oil or alcohol to avoid further irritation and dryness.
