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!

This thing is STRONG. I really have mixed feelings about it: I consider it a drying product (although, there are worse), but on the other hand, I have very oily and acne prone skin and I feel like I need a very deep cleanse every once in a while (specially on hot and humid months) and this thing works like magic when it comes to it.

My best advice is to avoid it if you have dry or sensitive Show more

I've tried a numerous amount of cleansers for my acne prone skin, but I always come back to this one! If you have acne prone skin that reacts well to salicylic acid - you should definitely give Vichy a try!
