Key Ingredient

Micelles
Suspended in water, micelle particles are surfactants with two ends: an oil-loving head and a water-loving tail. They work like a magnet to draw out makeup, sebum, and impurities quickly and effectively, while their gentle cleansing properties make them suitable for sensitive skin.
