Micellar cleansing tonics, which originated in France, offer consumers an alternative method of cleaning their face without soap, rinsing and harsh ingredients like alcohols and astringents that are common to traditional cleansers and toners. Micellar water contains microscopic micelle molecules that effortlessly lift waterproof makeup, dirt, oil and other impurities from the skin when it is swiped with a cotton pad.

[Pacifica](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydrodew-slime) is now making its own [Micellar Cleansing Tonics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serum-infused-micellar-water) in three unique varieties: Cactus Water, Kale Water and Coconut Water. Alongside these main plant-based ingredients, the cleansing products also include [beneficial and fragrant botanicals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-tulip-hydrating-biphase-tonic) like grapefruit water, calendula flower extract, jasmine flower water and rosemary leaf water.

As well as satisfying a health-conscious consumer's desire for natural personal care products, these Pacifica items are alluring for the promise of simplifying one's beauty routine.
