This 200 g product is a rinse-off gel cleanser you use with water at the sink. The Micellar Water (200 ml) is a no-rinse liquid you sweep on with a cotton pad, and the Cica face cream (30 g) is a leave-on moisturiser. Many people use the gel and the cream at different steps of the same routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have a scent?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo fragrance is added — there is no Parfum in the ingredient list, and no declared fragrance allergens such as Limonene or Linalool.
