Tarte Micelar Magic Makeup Remover: The Key to a Radiant Complexion

The Tarte Micellar Magic Makeup Remover is a product designed to effectively remove makeup while being gentle on the skin. Micellar water is a popular choice for makeup removal as it contains tiny oil molecules called micelles that attract and lift dirt, oil, and makeup from the skin without the need for excessive rubbing or harsh ingredients. What sets the Tarte Micellar Magic Makeup Remover apart from other micellar waters is its formula. It is infused with maracuja, the brand's signature ingredient, which is known for its hydrating and nourishing properties. This makes the micellar water not only effective at removing makeup but also leaves the skin feeling refreshed and moisturized. The product comes in a sleek and convenient bottle with a pump dispenser.

A super versatile and common mineral powder that comes in different particle sizes. It is a multi-tasker used to improve skin feel, increase product slip, give the product light-reflecting properties, enhance skin adhesion or serve as an anti-caking agent.

A corn-derived, white to yellowish, floury powder that works as a handy helper ingredient to create nice feeling emulsions.

It gives a generally pleasant skin feel, has some mattifying effect (though rice starch is better at that), it reduces greasiness and tackiness and helps the formula to spread easily without whitening or shininess.

Also-called: Type of clay, China clay | What-it-does: colorant, absorbent/mattifier, abrasive/scrub | Irritancy: 0 | Comedogenicity: 0

Kaolin is a type of clay or to be precise, a naturally occurring hydrous aluminum silicate. When you hear clay, you probably think of a muddy greenish-black mess, but that one is bentonite, and this one is a fine, white powder. It is so white that it's also often used, in small amounts, as a helper ingredient to give opacity and whiteness to the cosmetic formulas.

As a clay, it's absorbent and can suck up excess sebum and gunk from your skin, but less so than the more aggressive bentonite. As it's less absorbent, it's also less drying and gentler on the skin, so it's ideal for dry and sensitive skin types.

A mild, biodegradable cleansing agent that is also a very good team-player next to other cleaning agents. It is known for its good foam-boosing abilities while improving the mildness of the formula. Its performance is similar to Isethionates, another group of cleaning agents known for their gentleness.

Super common ingredient in all kinds of cleansing products: face and body washes, shampoos and foam baths.

Number one reason for its popularity has to do with bubbles. Everyone loves bubbles. And cocamidopropyl betaine is great at stabilizing them.

The other reason is that it’s mild and works very well combined with other cleansing agents and surfactants. The art of cleansing is usually to balance between properly cleansing but not over-cleansing and cocamidopropyl betaine is helpful in pulling off this balance right.

Oh, and one more nice thing: even though it’s synthetic it’s highly biodegradable.

Exactly what it sounds: nice smelling stuff put into cosmetic products so that the end product also smells nice. Fragrance in the US and parfum in the EU is a generic term on the ingredient list that is made up of 30 to 50 chemicals on average (but it can have as much as 200 components!).

If you are someone who likes to know what you put on your face then fragrance is not your best friend - there's no way to know what’s really in it.

Also, if your skin is sensitive, fragrance is again not your best friend. It’s the number one cause of contact allergy to cosmetics. It’s definitely a smart thing to avoid with sensitive skin (and fragrance of any type - natural is just as allergic as synthetic, if not worse!).

It's a water-hating, fumed silica that works as a thickener for oils and it can also suspend particles in oils.

Also, increases the gloss of castor oil that can be useful for makeup products.

A 12 carbon length fatty acid that can be found naturally in coconut milk, coconut oil, laurel oil, and palm kernel oil. It's also in breast milk. As a skincare ingredient, it can be used as an emulsifier or as a cleansing agent.

What's more, there is emerging research about lauric acid being a good anti-acne ingredient. A 2009 study found that the lowest concentration to prevent evil acne-causing P. acnes growth of lauric acid is over 15 times lower than that of gold standard anti-acne ingredient benzoyl peroxide.

Though the studies are only in-vitro (made in the lab, not on real people), and it also has a high comedogenicity index, it might be worth a try if you are prone to inflamed acne (the type that's caused by P. acnes bacteria).

A type of sugar molecule, that has water-binding properties and helps to keep your skin hydrated.

A vegetable-based, PEG-free ingredient whose job is to help water and oil to mix nicely together (emulsifier). It is created by attaching ten water-loving glycerin molecules with the oil-loving fatty acid, stearic acid. The result is a partly water- and partly oil-loving molecule that creates stable and smooth emulsions that are also cosmetically elegant. It also has some moisturizing and softening benefits for skin and hair.

Ci 77891 is the color code of titanium dioxide. It's a white pigment with great color consistency and dispersibility.

Reviews for "Tarte Micelar Magic Makeup Remover: A Painless Solution for Removing Longwear Lipstick"

- Jessica - 2 stars - I was really excited to try the Tarte micelar magic makeup remover because I love Tarte products, but this one just didn't live up to my expectations. The formula felt really greasy and left a residue on my skin that I didn't like. It also struggled to remove my waterproof mascara, even though it claims to be able to remove all types of makeup. I ended up having to use a separate eye makeup remover to get rid of my mascara. Overall, I was disappointed with this product and won't be repurchasing it.

- Sarah - 1 star - I had such high hopes for the Tarte micelar magic makeup remover, but unfortunately, it really let me down. Not only did it not fully remove my makeup, but it also left my skin feeling really dry and irritated. I have sensitive skin, so I was hoping this would be a gentle option, but it just didn't work for me. I also didn't like the scent of the product, it smelled very chemically. I won't be using this again and I don't recommend it, especially for those with sensitive skin.

- Emily - 3 stars - I have mixed feelings about the Tarte micelar magic makeup remover. On one hand, it did a decent job of removing most of my makeup and didn't leave a greasy residue. However, I did find that it struggled to remove my long-lasting foundation completely, requiring me to go in with a second cleanse to ensure everything was gone. Additionally, the formula felt a bit too harsh on my skin, leaving it feeling tight and dry. I think there are definitely better micellar waters out there for the same price or even cheaper.
