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. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

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.

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.
