Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
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.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.
As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.
Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.
In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.
This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

I have sensitive skin with mild acne. I got this cleanser because I wanted to go with a clean brand. Packaging is stunning. Smelled good, but it's a little too fragranced for me personally. It didn't trigger my sensitivity.
It's not bad, but not life-changing. It didn't break me out at all, but didn't seem to have any affect on what acne I already had. For the price, I expect some kind of Show more

My holy grail cleanser ✨ it feels kinda stinging at the very first use (but im guessing it’s because of a compromised skin barrier) but throughout one bottle, I can see that it really changed my skin as a whole. Lesser acne, less sebum, smoother, and has less flaking from tretinoin. I use it for AM & PM routine and even if I use tretinoin, there’s no irritation at all. This really healed my Show more
