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!
Learn more about WaterSodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.
Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.
Sodium Hyaluronate is naturally occurring in our bodies and is mostly found in eye fluid and joints.
These are some other common types of Hyaluronic Acid:
Learn more about Sodium HyaluronateCarbomer is a polymer of acrylic acid. Its main role is to create a gel consistency.
A high amount of carbomer can cause pilling or balling up of products. Don't worry, most products contain 1% or less of carbomer.
Glycerin is already naturally found in your skin. It helps moisturize and protect your skin.
A study from 2016 found glycerin to be more effective as a humectant than AHAs and hyaluronic acid.
As a humectant, it helps the skin stay hydrated by pulling moisture to your skin. The low molecular weight of glycerin allows it to pull moisture into the deeper layers of your skin.
Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.
In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.
This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.
Glycerin is the name for this ingredient in American English. British English uses Glycerol/Glycerine.

Beekman 1802 Shine Control Gel Cream Moisturizer 42 ingredients
This moisturizer is an odd one to me. I feel like you really have to use it with Beekman’s combo toner to make it work best. Using it with just a cleanser or something else seems to throw it off. It was definitely formulated to be used specifically with Beekman products. For that, I’m taking off a couple stars since I like products that can be more versatile.

I've been using this product consistently for the last 3-4 years. I use it more as a serum and twice a day. I find it really locks in moisture on my skin. Whenever I try to remove it, my skin gets upset and super dry and I end up putting it back into my routine. This is the one product I will pay the expensive shipping and crazy exchange rate (USD to CAD) for.
I have used this on and off for a few years. It’s a nice extra layer of moisture to use under a heavier moisturizer or under my sunscreen in the morning. It absorbs well and doesn’t break me out or anything and doesn’t cause any issues (and seems to help) when I apply it on irritated skin.
