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.

Love it, will repurchase. Despite its name, I use it in the morning. Leaves my skin feeling fresh without irritation (you don't need much product). Has no smell.

I was aware of their 'Good Morning' cleanser which seemed a little bit stripping for my sensitive skin based on their ingredient list, so I decided to try this Pha version instead. And I'm so glad I did! It helps me gently exfoliate on a daily basis without stripping my face, as my pores tend to clog.

✦ Price: Pretty reasonable for me considering that I use this product every two days plus I always buy it on sale
✦ Lasts about 5 months
