Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
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!

Banila Co Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm 23 ingredients
Great cleansing balm. My skin is ultra sensitive, and this calming balm did actually feel soothing and not irritating. No stinging or irritation after use. Does a great job of helping with a double cleanse after wearing SPF or makeup. (Fair warning, I tend to wear light coverage makeup, so I can’t speak to how it works on full coverage.)
Why did they change the formular ? Now I can’t use it anymore.
