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!

Buffering

Sodium Hydroxide is also known as lye or caustic soda. It is used to adjust the pH of products; many ingredients require a specific pH to be effective.

In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.

Your skin has a natural pH and acid mantle. This acid mantle helps prevent harmful bacteria from breaking through. The acid mantle also helps keep your skin hydrated.

"Alkaline" refers to a high pH level. A low pH level would be considered acidic.

Love it. When hot outside it’s enough as a moisturizer as well. Makes skin soft, reduces acne and decreases redness. Stings in the beginning, but once skin is used to it, it stops.

Heaven-sent of a prescription topical.

It helps with my acne, texture, PIH, and PIE. When I used this alongside Epiduo Forte, my skin is noticeably clearer and smoother in 3 weeks. It’s not yet completely clear, but I’m getting there. Very happy with the effects!

As for the formula, it’s a white gel-cream that spreads easily on the skin and dries matte nicely without pilling. There could be Show more
