Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Caprylyl Glycol is a humectant and emollient, meaning it attracts and preserves moisture.
It is a common ingredient in many products, especially those designed to hydrate skin. The primary benefits are retaining moisture, skin softening, and promoting a healthy skin barrier.
Though Caprylyl Glycol is an alcohol derived from fatty acids, it is not the kind that can dry out skin.
This ingredient is also used as a preservative to extend the life of products. It has slight antimicrobial properties.

I’m very sorry to say that I had a really bad reaction to this, even though it’s supposed to be for sensitive skin. I’m almost positive it’s the tocopherol, which is known to be irritating and comedogenic. I think it’s decently tolerated by most, especially in a wash, but if you have sensitive skin it’s worth being cautious. Other than that, I did like how hydrating this was and how it cleansed my skin. I would rate it more kindly, but for a gentle wash it really shouldn’t have something like tocopherol.

Ceramides! Pro-B5! Vitamin E! Niacinamide! Glycerin! There is so much good I would suggest looking through each ingredient on SkinSort or another skincare ingredient database if you aren't up to speed on all of the potential benefits the skin can reap from these ingredients with informed and correct product use. I really can't complain about this cleanser, and I may have some bias towards it only because I've used it without a single issue for twelve months. However, objectively speaking many cleansers tend to pack in subtle ingredients often overlooked for potential to cause irritation (i.e., fragrances, sulfates, alcohols) to the skin's dynamic barrier. Niacinamide in this product may have the potential to cause skin irritation for some users, however, in cleanser form you will be washing off product relatively soon after application so this shouldn't be as relevant of a concern as opposed to a serum or even moisturizer containing niacinamide.
