Garden of Wisdom's Micellar Cleansing Dew (antibacterial blend)is formulated for acne and blemish-prone skin, and is particularly appealing due to its gentle yet effective cleansing properties. This cleanser relies on Micelles, tiny cleansing particles that attract dirt, oil, and makeup, allowing for a thorough cleanse without the harshness often associated with traditional cleansers. Micellar Cleansing Dew is crafted with a blend of natural ingredients that work harmoniously to cleanse the skin while preserving its essential oils. Key components include: Nourishing Plant Extracts: These help to soothe the skin and provide hydration. Manuka Honey: Known for its antibacterial and healing properties, it aids in calming blemishes and nourishing the skin. Thyme Essential Oil: Offers antimicrobial benefits that can help combat acne. Seabuckthorn Seed Oil: Rich in vitamins and fatty acids, it nourishes and protects the skin.
This formulation is free from harsh chemicals, fragrances, and dyes, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It effectively removes makeup, dirt, and impurities, leaving the skin feeling soft, refreshed, and hydrated. The combination of gentle cleansing and nourishing ingredients makes Micellar Cleansing Dew an attractive choice for those seeking an effective yet gentle skincare solution.
Method of Application Shake bottle to make sure product is blended well. Apply enough to a soft cotton pad to cover your face, pat around gently then wipe off with a clean, cotton or bamboo moist warm washcloth.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

This product is a game changer! I asked Jen for help identifying products that would work for my skin - which is sensitive, reactive, acne-prone - and reeling from menopause. I was hesitant to try a micellar water, because I had had the idea of foamy, soapy stuff is best beaten into my head over 40 years. Imagine my surprise when the cleanser actually removed more make up than foaming soap, and was gentle enough to start healing my troubled skin! I was worried that it would cause a breakout, but it is absolutely perfect. I've never felt so comfortable and clean from such a simple product! I'm also amazed at how little you have to use and how long a bottle lasts. I highly recommend this!
Sue, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this, it means the world to us! We’re so glad Jen was able to help guide you to something that works beautifully for your skin (I'm not surprised, she has this weird 6th sense), it sounds like your journey has been anything but easy, and we’re honored to be part of this turning point. Antibacterial Micellar Cleansing Dew can feel like such a leap when you’ve been taught that foamy, squeaky equals clean, so we totally get the hesitation. Hearing that it not only surprised you, but actually outperformed your expectations and helped calm and support your skin, that’s the best feedback we could ask for. And yes, a little really does go a long way! Thank you again for your thoughtful words and for putting your trust in us. Markey

Healthy Micellar Cleansing Dew
Effective, light, and nourishing make up remover, and cleanser. This was a pleasant surprise for me! My skin was clean and soft after using. It's loaded with skin loving ingredients such as manuka honey and thyme. It's so gentle it can be used to remove eye make up. A must have in your skincare regimen!!
Thank you for reviewing our Micellar Cleansing Dew! We're so glad this is a staple!

For me Best Micellar in the market Price vs product
I am not fun of Micellar before this, how ever I used oils to take out my eyes make up, from the GOW consultation, Jen (she is very famous), she offers me this product and For sure I have to be ordering before my last bottle gets empty. It does what they say, I like the texture the smell and do not irritate my eyes at all. I will keep buying this stuff for ever, price vs product is the best. This is my humble opinion I am 52 years old with melasma issues. And this is helping me I can see the difference in my skin. Give a try you will not regret it.
I have developed rosacea in the last couple of years and I’ve struggled to find any products that truly helped heal my skin. My skin was dry, irritated, and felt like sandpaper. It seemed like nothing would absorb or make my skin feel hydrated. I’ve seen a dermatologist and have been prescribed multiple creams that have made my skin feel worse and I could never stick with them. I’ve used GoW products on and off for years but finally got fed up with the prescription route and decided to find a natural routine and stick with it. I’ve been using this serum twice a day with an oil blend as moisturizer and also incorporated a hypochlorous acid spray. The rosacea serum has been the thing that has saved my skin. In less than 2 weeks, my skin is no longer red and no longer feels like sandpaper. It’s plump and hydrated. Before, on close inspection, it looked like every pore on my face was clogged and had a layer of red, dry skin. That is nearly gone. This serum is incredible.

There's something about coconut vinegar that just hits right...
I LOVE to close my eyes and spray all of the Coco tonics on my face after washing it. It smells amazing and makes it so less is more as you move forward with serums and creams. It's like self-care in a spritzer.

The scent to rival all scent-sations!
It is the most DIVINE of all the serums I've tried at GoW, not only due to it's efficacy, but the scent takes you straight into a rose garden on a mild spring day. Lovely feeling on my skin and to my senses.

I love the simplicity of this formula. This makes a great nourishing and healing serum. I have to be careful with hyaluronic acid (all molecular weights) and retinol/al(s), all which tend to dehydrate my skin. Oat beta glucans bring it back to life!
Alyssa
⋆.˚✮ ✮˚.⋆ for leaving a review for our Oat Beta Glucans. We use this ingredient in a lot of our formulas as it is extremely healing and soothing to the skin. Actually, years ago there was a customer who did a study on this ingredient and found so many favorable reviews and testimonials from people with extreme burns and it fascinated us. Kudos to the dear lady! We're so glad to hear that it has been nourishing and healing for your skin. It's great to know that it's a helpful alternative for those who may have sensitivities to other ingredients like hyaluronic acid and retinol.
We’re so grateful you took the time to write us.
Wishing your skin continued comfort and balance during this journey.♡
I love the other GOW hydrating mists but has not tried this one yet. My skin is on the struggle bus this Fall. Due to weather plus perimenopause I felt like I couldn’t get enough hydration no matter what! Purchased the 1oz size of this mist to try and it’s a game changer!! I just ordered the 4oz size during a sale. Never want to be without this during Fall and Winter.
Hi Michelle
Thank you for sharing your positive experience with our Deep Hydrating Mist! Your enthusiasm is so cool and we really appreciate it! One of our customers in the UK gave us the idea so all the credit truly goes to her. We're so happy to hear that it's been a game changer for your winter skin struggles.
We hope it continues to provide the hydration you need during this season.
Thank you for your continued support and we're glad you took advantage of our sale to stock up on the larger size.
Have a great day and a beautiful weekend.
I've never not loved Garden of Wisdom products 100%, and this is no exception... I alternate the C3 Elixir with other GoW products (the C3 does great on off-days that I don't use peptides), and it's been a great addition to my skin's arsenal. Some products can be drying or irritating to my skin but this isn't, at all!
I have to say... Markey and the entire team at Garden of Wisdom is a blessing. They do what they do out of a passion for helping people, and crafting high-quality, clean and safe products, at an affordable price - along with the utmost customer service (and I love the little hand-written notes I get with each order :)
Thank you, Markey, Leah, Jen, and the rest of your awesome team. xo

Your kind words about our little notes and our customer service touched us deeply. From all of us here at Garden of Wisdom, thank you for being part of our community and for letting us support you on your skincare journey.
Your Team @ Garden of Wisdom
I really like the smell, and I trust that the essential oils are doing their job in treating my face to luxury.

I'm personally not a fan of geranium or rose (scent not the results which are quite amazing) but when clended with the Carrot Seed Hydrosol, well, the hydration and moisture for my old, elderly, somewhat challenging skin has always been a go to for me.
NOTE: There are no essential oils added to our hydrosols. However, because hydrosols are produced through steam distillation of herbs and flowers, they naturally contain trace amounts of the plant’s volatile aromatic compounds. These are not added essential oils, just the minute, inherent constituents that occur naturally during distillation.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
