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

On the technical side of things, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide - a combination consisting of multiple sugar molecules bonded together.
Xanthan gum is a pretty common and great ingredient. It is a natural, non-toxic, non-irritating ingredient that is also commonly used in food products.
Learn more about Xanthan GumSodium Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid's salt form. It is commonly derived from the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid.
Like hyaluronic acid, it is great at holding water and acts as a humectant. This makes it a great skin hydrating ingredient.
Sodium Hyaluronate is naturally occurring in our bodies and is mostly found in eye fluid and joints.
These are some other common types of Hyaluronic Acid:

UPDATED 12 July 2024 (TL;DR below):
I think this serum was one of the first products I found using SkinSort’s filters, and it had caught my attention because it kept showing up- even with my ultra-specific filtering! I was looking for a beginner-friendly, non-irritating Vitamin C product. Finding this felt like I’d hit a gold mine. (I was so excited I bought two the first time buying it!) Comes Show more
I love the ingredients in this vitamin c! I’ve been using it daily since the beginning of December and my skin glows more than it did before adding it to my routine. It smells good and feels great; cooling as it’s going on, a bit tacky after it’s rubbed in, and smooth when it dries. A second bottle is already in my fridge waiting to be used.
