Onagrine Micellar Cleansing Water

No-Rinse Micellar Cleansing Water with Evening Primrose Oil for Face and Eyes

Onagrine Micellar Cleansing Water is a single-step face and eye cleanser built around a micellar surfactant system that lifts away make-up, sunscreen and daily impurities without a rinse. The formula combines mild non-ionic and amphoteric surfactants — Poloxamer 184, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Decyl Glucoside and Coco-Glucoside — with Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil for an antioxidant lipid note and Glycerin as a core humectant. Biosaccharide Gum-2 sits alongside as a polysaccharide that supports the comfort feel after use. The formula is positioned at a neutral pH and is described by the brand as dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, suitable for sensitive skin and the eye area.

Why Choose It?

• Single-step, no-rinse cleansing that removes make-up and daily impurities from the face and the eye area
• Neutral pH formula, brand-described as dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested for sensitive skin and the delicate eye area
• Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil adds an antioxidant lipid note the brand positions as anti-ageing support
• Glycerin and Biosaccharide Gum-2 (a polysaccharide) reinforce the soft, comfortable after-feel rather than a tight finish
• Suitable for use morning and evening as the cleansing or make-up removal step

Best For

Sensitive skin and the delicate eye area that need a single-step, no-rinse way to lift make-up and daily impurities without a tight after-feel. The neutral pH and mild micellar surfactant system make it usable morning and evening as the cleansing step in an otherwise minimalist routine, while the Evening Primrose oil and polysaccharide back-up keep skin feeling comfortable instead of stripped.

Use morning and evening as the cleansing or make-up removal step. Follow with a comforting face cream for sensitive skin to seal in comfort once skin is dry.

• Saturate a cotton pad with the micellar water.
• Wipe gently over the face, working from the centre outwards and lifting away make-up and daily impurities.
• For the eye area, hold a soaked pad over closed lashes for a few seconds, then wipe downwards without rubbing.
• Repeat with a fresh pad if heavier make-up or sunscreen is still visible.
• No need to rinse — continue with the rest of the routine on dry skin.

Tips

• For long-wear or waterproof make-up, expect to use a second saturated pad rather than scrubbing the first one harder.
• Keep the bottle for face and eyes only — avoid using the same pad on the eye area after it has wiped a heavily made-up zone.
• If layering acid or retinoid actives later in the routine, let skin settle for a minute after the final pad before the next step.
