Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Polyethylene is a synthetic ingredient that helps the skin retain moisture. It is a polymer.
It is also typically used within product formulations to help bind solid ingredients together and thicken oil-based ingredients. When added to balms and emulsions, it helps increase the melting point temperature.
Tocopheryl Acetate is AKA Vitamin E. It is an antioxidant and protects your skin from free radicals. Free radicals damage the skin by breaking down collagen.
One study found using Tocopheryl Acetate with Vitamin C decreased the number of sunburned cells.
Tocopheryl Acetate is commonly found in both skincare and dietary supplements.

For that price and color choices, I can’t even rate it at 4 stars. I saw also recently a rave about it on TikTok but you better off buying a good Show more
I'm obsessed with this color...
the combination of black honey + a lip liner close to one's natural lip color can look perfect on anyone with any skin tone imo.
I have neutral to cold undertones and my sister has warm undertones. the color looks different but nice on both of us.
sometimes I like to wear Fenty Gloss Bomb in Hot Chocolit on top of it, the combo is a perfect brown shade!
