CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water is a gentle face cleanser developed with dermatologists for normal to oily skin. Its light, non-drying formula with smoothing PHA and three essential ceramides removes makeup, sunscreen, impurities and pollution particles from the face, eyes and lips. It purifies the skin, refines the look of pores and protects the skin barrier, with no need to rinse.

Key Benefits

  • Cleanses and purifies: lifts away makeup, sunscreen residue and pollution particles.
  • Refines the look of pores: smoothing PHA helps purify normal to oily skin.
  • Face, eyes and lips: tested under ophthalmological control and gentle on delicate areas.
  • Barrier-friendly: three essential ceramides help restore and maintain the skin's protective barrier.
  • No-rinse, non-drying: leaves skin clean, soft and comfortable after each use.

Key Ingredients

The three essential ceramides, NP, AP and EOP, are lipids naturally found in the skin barrier: CeraVe adds them to help restore and protect it while you cleanse. Gluconolactone, a PHA, gently smooths the skin surface, and glycerin keeps the skin hydrated, so the micellar water purifies without a tight feeling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to rinse after using CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water?

No. CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water is a no-rinse cleanser: wipe it over the face, eyes and lips with a cotton pad and the light formula keeps working gently on the skin. You can then apply your serum or moisturizer.

Can CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water remove eye makeup?

Yes. It removes makeup from the face, eyes and lips and was tested under ophthalmological control. Hold a soaked cotton pad on the eyelid for a few seconds, then wipe gently without rubbing.

Which skin type is CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water for?

Normal to oily skin. The formula with PHA purifies and refines the look of pores, while three essential ceramides protect the skin barrier. It is non-drying and suitable for sensitive skin. For normal to dry skin, CeraVe offers a hydrating micellar water.

What is the difference between CeraVe Purifying and Hydrating Micellar Water?

Their skin type and actives. The purifying version, with smoothing PHA, is designed for normal to oily skin and helps refine the look of pores, while the hydrating version, with hyaluronic acid, is for normal to dry skin. Both contain three essential ceramides.

When should I use CeraVe Purifying Micellar Water?

Morning and evening. CeraVe recommends it twice a day to remove impurities, sunscreen and pollution particles, either on its own or as the first step of your skincare routine, before your serum and moisturizer.
