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

Vigna Radiata Seed Extract comes from the mung bean. Mung beans are an edible legume from Asia. It is commonly used in Asian desserts.

Mung beans contain carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins and minerals. They also contain flavonoids and polyphenols (such as caffeic acid) that give them antioxidant properties.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

1,2-Hexanediol is a synthetic liquid and another multi-functional powerhouse. 

It is a:

  • Humectant, drawing moisture into the skin
  • Emollient, helping to soften skin
  • Solvent, dispersing and stabilizing formulas
  • Preservative booster, enhancing the antimicrobial activity of other preservatives 
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!

Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting, Soothing

Allantoin plays a role in soothing and moisturizing the skin. Because of this, it is often added to products with strong active ingredients.

Some studies have shown this ingredient can promote wound healing with higher concentrations.

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

I am very happy with this cleansing oil as my first cleanse. It is light, gentle and removes my zinc sunscreen. I usually follow it with either a gentle ceramide cleanser or light foaming cleanser. One squirt in my palm and rub into my face concentrating on my nose and T-zone. Then add cool lukewarm water to emulsify. It works really well for my sensitive, mature, rosacea prone skin.

I LOVE THIS CLEANSER SO MUCH 😽
Even though i have a sensitive skin and was afraid it would be too strong because of some ingredients and on top of that with the little chunks inside but as soon as you foam it well, it is perfect
I would not recommend it for dry skin though but even if you have a combo skin as soon as you hydrate your skin correctly after you gonna love it!
I NEED TO RESTOCK
