Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

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!

Humectant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

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.

Cleansing, Skin Conditioning, Smoothing

The combination of all these properties makes centella effective at soothing, hydrating, and protecting the skin.

Preservative

Phenoxyethanol is a preservative that has germicide, antimicrobial, and aromatic properties. Studies show that phenoxyethanol can prevent microbial growth. By itself, it has a scent that is similar to that of a rose.

It's often used in formulations along with Caprylyl Glycol to preserve the shelf life of products.

Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting, Soothing

Allantoin plays a role in soothing and moisturizing the skin. Because of this, it is often added to products with strong active ingredients.

Some studies have shown this ingredient can promote wound healing with higher concentrations.

Allantoin is derived from the comfrey plant but produced synthetically for cosmetic products to ensure purity.

Disodium EDTA plays a role in making products more stable by aiding other preservatives.

It is a chelating agent, meaning it neutralizes metal ions that may be found in a product.

Disodium EDTA is a salt of edetic acid and is found to be safe in cosmetic ingredients.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

1,2-Hexanediol is a synthetic liquid and another multi-functional powerhouse. 

It is a:

  • Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin
  • Emollient, helping to soften skin
  • Solvent, dispersing and stabilizing formulas
  • Preservative booster, enhancing the antimicrobial activity of other preservatives

If you have issues with hyaluronic acid serums, try this. A little goes a long way and it is amazing for skin barrier, irritation, skin texture, wrinkles (really helped with dynamic wrinkles around my eyes) and adding a little dewiness to dry skin. Unlike HA based hydrating serums it doesn't dry you out if you're wearing it in a dry climate (at least as much).

Has a weird smell but not enough Show more

so I bought this by recommendation of Avo cust service. I already owned YSB Lactic Acid but apparently Lactic irritated my skin after a couple weeks. when I consulted, they told me to reduce the frequency of Lactic serum usage and apply this every day. they advised to layer it after Lactic serum as well... and it's really working as claimed... I love it.

Not really showing immediate effects for my ice-picked scars but seems like my skin look better due to niacinamide. Most of my dark spots faded away and it also relieved my break outs.
