REMOVE POLLUTION AND MAKE-UP WITH MICELLAR WATER 

You already know that we are big fans of micellar water, and for good reason. Powered by tiny micelles, this mild cleansing fluid often does double or triple duty, removing impurities while refreshing and toning skin without drying it out. What's more, most micellar waters do not require a subsequent rinse, meaning you don't have to be in close proximity to a sink to cleanse your skin. We store them in purses, gym bags, nightstands and desks for easy, quick cleanup almost anywhere. Ahead, we'll show you three L'Oréal micellar cleansing waters designed specifically for your skin type.

For normal to oily skin: If you're prone to breakouts and struggling with excess shine on the surface of your skin, look no further than L'Oreal Paris Complete Cleanser Micellar Cleansing Water - Normal to Oily Skin. Free of oil, soap and alcohol, this micellar water removes makeup, dirt and excess sebum in one step, leaving skin clean and matte.

For normal and dry skin: If oiliness isn't one of your skin care concerns, but it's bothering your dry skin, try L'Oreal Paris Complete Cleanser Micellar Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin. This formula removes make-up and cleanses dirt and impurities from the surface of the skin, while moisturizing and soothing the skin.

For all skin types: If you find it hard to remove waterproof mascara, try the latest micellar water in the trio, L'Oreal Paris Complete Cleanser Waterproof - All Skin Types Micellar Cleansing Water. Suitable for all skin types, even sensitive, this makeup remover can show off waterproof mascara, who's boss without heavy rubbing or rinsing. Use it on your face, eyes and lips.

GET GENTLE CLEANSERS 

If you prefer to wash your face with a traditional sink-rinsing cleanser, make sure the formula is gentle and non-drying, while also effectively removing make-up and impurities. Our choice? L'Oréal Paris Age Perfect Cleansing Nourishing Cream. Packed with revitalizing oils, this daily cleansing cream cleanses skin without overdrying, leaving skin softer, smoother, and firmer. After application, the skin is perfectly cleansed, becomes soft, smooth and comfortable.

EXFOLIATION WITH SUGAR SCRUB 

Switch to an exfoliator several times a week to remove dead skin cells that can build up on the surface of the skin and dull its natural radiance. Good news: L'Oreal Paris recently introduced a new sugar face scrub called Pure-Sugar Purify & Unclog, which is made with three pure sugars and — wait — kiwi seeds. With dry fingers, apply a small amount to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Massage your face with wet fingers and rinse with warm water. After you finish scrubbing, you will notice that dead skin cells are gently removed and the skin becomes soft, like a baby. For best results, use it three times a week. 

MULTI-MASK

If you have multiple skin problems, multi-masking is an effective way to address problem areas. You may have enlarged pores and oil around your T-zone, fine lines on your forehead, and dry cheeks. With L'Oréal Paris' Pure Clay Mask line, you won't have to break the bank to treat every area. Each of the Pure-Clay masks contains a combination of clay and its own unique ingredient, formulated for specific skin needs:

Pure-Clay Purifying & Mattifying Mask: Use this mattifying mask on areas with excess shine. Formulated with clay and eucalyptus, this mask helps draw out accumulated impurities, dirt and oils, leaving skin fresh and breathable.

Pure-Clay Detox & Brighten Mask: To brighten dull, tired skin, use this charcoal mask. Already after the first application, you will notice that your skin looks renewed and radiant. 

Pure-Clay Exfoliate & Refine Mask:  Exfoliate areas of rough, hyperemic skin with the Pure-Clay Exfoliate & Refine Mask. This orange-toned mask with red algae helps to polish the skin, minimize the appearance of pores, and smooth the complexion.

Pure-Clay Clear & Comfort Mask: Infused with seaweed, this blue-toned mask helps visibly reduce the appearance of imperfections, unclog clogged pores, and purify problem areas. After just one application, you will get a more even and smooth complexion.

Pure Clay Clarify & Smooth Mask: Last but not least, meet the latest addition to the Pure-Clay family. This mask helps to get rid of dead skin cells, remove impurities and, over time, makes the skin look healthier and more beautiful.
