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 (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:
Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient that works well with other ingredients.
Though this ingredient works well with most skin types, some people with sensitive skin may experience a reaction such as allergic rashes, closed comedones, or itchiness.
Learn more about Butylene GlycolWater. 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!

It is a:
- Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin
- Emollient, helping to soften skin

Prob not worth it imp, for me it just irritated my skin however left a nice smooth and glow on my skin.
I've tried a lot of korean cream and this one is my absolute favorite. It's really hydrating, not sticky or greasy. It doesn't contains any pore clogging ingredient, it really is the perfect one for my dry-combo acne prone sensitive skin.

I’m serious when I say if you don’t use any k skincare.. you HAVE to try this one. It’s an all in one product and targets many concerns and issues in one go. At least for me. I have rosacea and very dry, sensitive skin and this soothes my skin like no other!! It reduces redness.. helped to get rid of my acne. hydrates my skin and makes my skin tone even in better texture.
I’ve been using this on and off for about 2 years now to help with my sensitive, acne prone skin. Not only does it help heal my skin barrier, it reinforces it, calms down my redness, and helps to heal my breakouts faster. I’ve already gone through 3 bottles. All you need is a couple of drops a day, or even to mix it with your moisturizer, and you’re good!
