Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

It’s not for oily skin because it makes your skin look more oily. It is also not fragrance free so every time I put it the fragrance bothers me. It is not for me, I prefer sunscreens that does not give a shiny look.
