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!

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.

As an AHA, Citric Acid removes the top layer of skin cells from the newer layer of skin underneath. This helps skin to remove dark spots and even out skin tone.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Facial Cleanser with Soothing Oat 10 ingredients
This is a fantastic cleanser option for sensitive skin. This has become my HG because of how often I've returned to it after trying other cleansers that were simply too harsh or irritating. Affordable, accessible (you can find it in most drug stores), and does what I need it to do. Aveeno, hear my prayer and never discontinue or reformulate this!

Wonderful cleanser, terrible company
This is the best moisturizing cleanser I have tried -- not good for exfoliating, acne, etc., but very good for just washing your face or double oil cleansing. I cannot support this company, however, knowing that the owner belongs to and donates to a violently homophobic cult (C3). Liah has tried to 'apologize' over the years but continues to support this group. Show more
Gave me a bunch of tiny clear/white bumps on my face. Stopped using it and switched to a different cleanser and they went away within a day. Not sure if I'm allergic or just sensitive to the ingredients.
