Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Butylene Glycol

What it does: Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Community Rating: Mixed

Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:

It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

AMPLE:N Acne Shot Ampoule contains this as ingredient number 3.

Anua Heartleaf 80% Soothing Ampoule contains this as ingredient number 2.

1,2-Hexanediol

What it does: Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Community Rating: Mixed

1,2-Hexanediol is a multi-tasker ingredient. It acts as a preservative to increase shelf-life and can aid other preservatives in preventing microbe growth. 1,2-Hexanediol also helps the skin retain moisture as a humectant.

In products that are water-based, this ingredient can help stabilize perfumes and fragrances. It can also help make the texture of products softer and more smooth.

AMPLE:N Acne Shot Ampoule contains this as ingredient number 6.

Anua Heartleaf 80% Soothing Ampoule contains this as ingredient number 4.

Arginine

What it does: Masking, Skin Conditioning

Community Rating: Mixed

Arginine is an amino acid that is important for human development. Your body uses is it to produce hair keratin and skin collagen.

As a cosmetic ingredient, Arginine has antioxidant properties and can also help repair damaged skin. This ingredient is derived either synthetically or from animals.

Arginine isn't fungal acne safe when used in the presence of other lipids (fats, fatty acids, oils, esters, etc). Oils and fats occur naturally within the skin, so take caution when using Arginine if you're prone to fungal acne.

A gentle addition to your acne routine
I like this product for days when I don’t want to use stronger actives and my skin just needs a break. I think this ampoule would be a good add-on to a routine, however I would not rely on it alone to treat your spots; I believe it would be best to use it along side something else like salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or a retinoid. Having said that however, this isn’t the easiest product to apply. My biggest gripe with this product is the consistency. It’s very watery so it’s easy to drip or spill it somewhere by accident. I’ve been mixing this with my toner/essences to make it easier to apply, but I kind of wish that AMPLE:N had just released this as a toner in a bigger bottle rather than this small ampoule. It’s still a nice product, so you might want to check it out if your skin likes propolis.
