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.

Antioxidant, Skin Conditioning

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.

This is the formulation I use for managing my acne. I get cystic acne as well as fungal acne & this keeps most of it at bay so long as I stick to healthy lifestyle routines. I order my formulations from Skinorac in individual tubes because it’s so much cheaper & I can buy in bulk. I’s recommend doing that if the curology subscription is getting to be too expensive for ur budget.

I have been using this moisturiser for many, many years as a hand and body moisturiser. I have extremely dry skin and it works better than anything I have ever tried at keeping dry, itchy skin at bay. It makes a superb hand cream as it is super moisturising but not greasy. An awesome product and my holy grail hand and body moisturiser.
