[Routine Help] No cotton pads- micellar water for mineral sunscreen

Routine Help

I don’t have any cotton pads. Today I wore mineral facial sunscreen for the first time (Dr G mild), and I have Bioderma micellar water that I used my fingers to massage my face, splashed some water and massaged some more, then rinsed. Then I washed my face with my usual CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, and then applied my PM facial CeraVe lotion.

I just read that since mineral sunscreens leave a stubborn film, that not having used cotton pads with the micellar water will leave behind residue. So now I am getting anxiety about not having removed it good enough?? But I know I shouldn’t go doing the face wash progress all over again because I don’t want to aggravate my skin.
