Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

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!

Just a meh product. Good for calming down red spots but so is the I'm From mugwort essence. Bit expensive for what it does. In hindsight I would pass on this product.
