Does this micellar water rinse off, and is it suitable for removing waterproof makeup?

C+ CITRUS POWER MITSELLAARVESI 245ML
Question about the product C+ CITRUS POWER MITSELLAARVESI 245ML €2.82 Go to product

Fitocosmetic C+ Citrus Power Micellar Water is formulated as a no-rinse cleansing product. The micelles in the solution attract oil, pigment, and surface impurities, allowing you to remove them using a cotton pad without needing to wash your face with water afterward. This makes it particularly useful for quick cleansing routines, travel, or post-workout refreshment when a full wash isn't practical.

Regarding makeup removal, the product is designed for light to moderate makeup. While it effectively lifts away standard cosmetics and sunscreen, it may not be strong enough to fully dissolve heavy, waterproof mascara or long-wear waterproof foundations in a single pass. For such products, you might need to use a dedicated eye makeup remover first or apply the micellar water with a saturated cotton pad and hold it against the area for a few seconds to allow the citrus complex and micelles to break down the residue gently.

Because it contains lime-derived AHA fruit acids, it also provides a mild renewing effect by helping to loosen the buildup of dead skin cells on the surface. This contributes to a fresher-looking complexion over time, but it does not replace the need for a thorough rinse if you have very sensitive skin that reacts to residual active ingredients.
