[La Mer's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-concentrate) classic Cleansing Micellar Water is now part of a Breast Cancer Campaign with 30% of proceeds being donated to the [Breast Cancer Research Foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-clinique-moisturizer) (up to $53,000). The product uses sea cleanser to help revitalize and nourish the skin.

The Cleansing Micellar Water is powered through "micro-capsules" that remove surface impurities and pollutants. It doubles as a make-up remover giving users an efficient and effective clean. The cleanser boasts miracle broth, marine micelle waters and is created without the use of parabens, phthalates, or sulfates. This product is light and non-irritating, so consumers with sensitive skin can get an effective yet gentle clean.

The breast-cancer-fighting campaign is personalized for consumers who are seeking to purchase effective products that also give back to the world.
