Community Rating: Loved

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!

Simple but clogged some pores
I use this under my moisterizer that tends to be drying. This leaves my sensitive skin feeling soft and not red, but I did notice some clogged pores pop up. I like the texture, however—it is very light and waterlike.
