"A micellar formulation is a solution containing tiny spherical structures called "micelles" formed by molecules called surfactants, which have both hydrophilic (water-loving) and hydrophobic (oil-loving) parts, allowing them to encapsulate and disperse oily substances in water, effectively cleaning or solubilizing them; commonly found in products like micellar water, where the micelles can trap dirt and makeup particles for removal from the skin.

Key points about micellar formulations:

Micelles:

These are the tiny spherical structures formed by the surfactant molecules when they reach a certain concentration in the solution, called the critical micelle concentration (CMC).

Amphiphilic nature:

Surfactants have a hydrophilic head (attracted to water) and a hydrophobic tail (attracted to oil), allowing them to form micelles that can trap oily substances within their core. "

Interesting. I've been taking grape seed extract due to it's anti-inflammatory properties for the reasons mentioned in this article. Hopefully it helps long-term.

It sounds like it is possible that the hope was that the micelar formula would possibly be helpful for a person who would have digestive symptoms if they took the more available version and I hope that this proves helpful for you.
