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

Learn more about BetaineButylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:
- It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
- It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
- It helps improve product application.
Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.
Allantoin plays a role in soothing and moisturizing the skin. Because of this, it is often added to products with strong active ingredients.

Allantoin is derived from the comfrey plant but produced synthetically for cosmetic products to ensure purity.

Suuuuper gentle watery toner with beneficial & mild plant extracts.
I downloaded mine into a spray bottle and use it as a refreshing spritz when my skin needs an extra boost of hydration. Not going to blow your mind but really solid & non-irritating product.

I've got nothing bad to say about this toner, but I'm also unsure that it does anything. I went for it because I was experiencing irritation and fungal reactions from previous products and decided to dial down my routine and switch to simpler formulations with less actives. This is just that however, innocuous.
It's really watery and feels like nothing on the skin. It can be refreshing on a hot day (maybe it'd be nice in a mist bottle) and I haven't experienced any pilling when wearing makeup.
However, after almost a month of usage, I think (if still sticking to simpler formulations) I would rather go for something like One Thing's herbal toner, especially the centella one, I feel like that made more of a difference in my skin while still being non-irritating.
