Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.

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.

Love Tundra Chaga by BLITHE. Very good product especially for hot season/not oily at all. Looks like apple sauce or baby food. Chaga is a mushroom good for detox. I can't say what it's doing for my 40+ skin but i like a feeling. Possible to buy a small jar 27 ml or less not only big jars.

Really great moisturizer for my evening routine. The consistency is very creamy and smooth.
