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!

Masking, Skin Conditioning

This ingredient is an emollient, solvent, and texture enhancer. It is considered a skin-softener by helping the skin prevent moisture loss.

It helps thicken a product's formula and makes it easier to spread by dissolving clumping compounds.

Caprylic Triglyceride is made by combining glycerin with coconut oil, forming a clear liquid.

While there is an assumption Caprylic Triglyceride can clog pores due to it being derived from coconut oil, there is no research supporting this.

I do not really enjoy using this product; I occasionally use it, but only when washing my face in the shower. The oil does a good job of removing make-up, mascara, and sunscreen, but I did find that it requires a thorough follow-up with a foaming cleanser to completely remove any residue left behind (the reason I do not enjoy using this). I did not experience any breakouts or irritation.

A cleansing oil that did not trigger my acne-prone skin. Leaves the skin smooth and soothed afterwards.

Clogged up my skin completely and wrecked havoc. The following weeks, I dealt with redness and bumpy skin afterwards

good for removing sunscreen, but if you use it your face will feel super soft, that's because it leaves a thick residue layer behind, I was shocked the first time I used it as it, after already using my water cleanser, emulsified again with my toner (first and only time to ever happen to me with an oil cleanser), so you have to really scrub your face to get rid of it.
