Ingredients Side-by-side
Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.
Within a product, Caprylic Triglyceride can thicken the product and make spreadability easier by dissolving clumping compounds. An added benefit of Caprylic Triglyceride is its antioxidant properties.
Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid. Caprylic Triglyceride has not been found to be toxic for human use in concentrations under 50%.
While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

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.
In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.
This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

The best product I have used on my face. I have extremely sensitive skin and nothing has worked quite as well as this moisturizer. (I’ve used Vanicream, Joon Sung, Cerave, etc). One use of this cream and all redness was gone, I was left with super soft healthy skin. Even though it’s expensive you can use very little bc it’s so thick, and the tube lasts a very long time! It’s a little hard to apply because it feels like a thick sunscreen but once the product ’melts’ on skin you can spread it more easily. EDIT: After a few weeks of using it I noticed I would break out a little bit, maybe during that time of month when my skin is more oily (?). I stopped using it to sleep and I only use it on morning now and got better results. I have very dry skin so maybe oily skin types might want to use it as a spot treatment / alternate with something lighter

OMG! This is my new HG!
At first, i was too scared to use this moisturizer since it has vegetable oil which can be comedic for acne-prone.
BUT i wanted to give it a shot since i liked their cleanser and my skin was already ruined from using too many bad products, so why not try another? lol.
the first impression was the ✨glow✨ and it literally made me feel like I have 'glass skin'!
I started using it every night only and sometimes in the morning if I'm wearing makeup- mind you that i have very easily clog-prone skin that is super sensitive to literally anything. yet using this cream made my skin overall healthy and now I rarely get acne of those little whiteheads that pop out of nowhere.
I recommend this to anyone who has a damaged skin barrier, acne, and even if you suffer from acne scars too! (but this won't get rid of them alone so you have to use another active).
⭐PS: I recommend using a small amount on your fingertips, rub it well until you feel it dissolving before gently massaging it on your dry face (if you used a serum before, let it dry a little or it won't blend easily).

I love this moisturizer! It is so so lightweight yet so moisturizing on the skin without being greasy or tacky. It is such a great formulation to keep my skin plump and hydrated, I am a really big fan of it.

Not bad, not great either. It hydrates my skin, but only a little. My face also starts feeling a bit more greasy than normal after a few hours. It does feel light on the skin when applying and doesn't feel sticky. Overall a bit pricey for what it does.
