yep, you can use micellar water and follow up with cleanser. Or you can double cleanse by using cleanser twice. That's what my friend do since she doesn't tolerate cleansing oil

Just a little information for your friend (I am not trying to be rude) but micellar water only spreads the dirt around and doesn't actually take the dirt off of your face before cleansing.

So your first cleanse should be with a cleansing oil or cleansing balm followed by your usual water based cleanser. You want to get everything off of your face from the day and that includes your SPF. Sunscreens are oil based (unless you use a powdered sunscreen product) so you need an oil based cleanser to remove an oil based product.
