micellar
Micelles are aggregates of surfactant molecules dispersed in a liquid colloid, forming when the concentration of surfactant molecules exceeds the critical micelle concentration (CMC). These structures are utilized in various applications, including cleaning products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, due to their ability to encapsulate and solubilize hydrophobic substances in aqueous environments. Micellar products, such as micellar water, are particularly popular among individuals seeking gentle and effective cleansing solutions for skin care.
